Exactly. Need to repeal DSHEA. Not sure how you get that to happen, though. And obviously fix the FDA post-rfk...

I still don't understand how he was about to do any of that. He wasn't elected. Did he ever actually have a government job, or title? His "department" wasn't an actual thing. Why did anybody listen to him when he said you're fired? He's not their supervisor.

Anyone know why an Antonov an-124 would be flying from Colorado Springs to Pease? Just saw it driving down the highway, and now I'm very curious.

I don't understand how you make money doing this. Aren't prescription drugs expensive to provide? How much money can you be making slapping it in a gas station pill that seems like nobody ever buys? Maybe there's a ton of people buying these things?

DSHEA is a specific law that basically says anything marketing as a supplement doesn't need to be evaluated by the FDA. So basically if you call a pill a supplement no one's ever going to test what's in it.

I'm a public school teacher. An hour of my time, as negotiated in a cba, is worth $45. So logically, Elon being weird on Twitter is worth 2 million times more than the hour I just spent getting sprayed with super soaker by my kids. That doesn't feel right, but the math says it must be true.

I'm surprised the school is even allowed to release kids to an unmanned vehicle like that. My parents have to show ID to walk out with my kids if they're picking them up, even though the kids clearly know who they are.

That to me was the original sin of the sequels - hitting reset on everything, including character development. We already saw Han as loner scoundrel smuggler, that was his whole arc over 3 movies. I want to see what they do next.

The current regime took a week to abolish USAID, which is three times as old and was not in the news every day for brutalizing children

Cream and sugar drinks with an occasional splash of coffee. I don't think they even sell original doughnuts anymore, the type which you would dunk into a coffee.

I hated that ad. Felt very "non white family has to price their value before their neighbors will accept them"

I blame heady topper (which I love, to be fair). You used to have to put in work to buy a beer like that, now you can't get anything but.

Yeah, that's my recollection, is that it that a while to find its stride

Random question for you: I want to start watching tng with my son, but I don't think we can do 178 episodes. Are you aware of any recommended viewing lists?

I'm not arguing for or against, to be clear. I did enjoy the book. But the comment I was replying to did make me think of that

It was a scene where she'd had a long bolt put through her tongue so as to keep it pulled out of her mouth so that she couldn't talk. Been a while since I read it, but stuck out to me.

Oh damn. Haven't read that, perhaps one to skip

If I recall correctly, there's an ersatz Hillary Clinton in Seveneves who gets mutilated in a way none of the other characters do.

Future @ifbookspod.bsky.social episode?

My guess would be original-ish story taking elements from each game, but heavily influenced LttP and OoT. I think I just base that on what I played as a kid, though.

It's really been affecting me in a way that has surprised me

Yeah, I really think that's what's going to happen

Peter Brannen @pbrannen.bsky.social · 23/10/2025
I honestly think that's what's going to happen now

I fully believe Trump expected to lose the first time around. And it's been kid-who-didn't-read-the-book-giving-a-book-report ever since. And also fascism.

Whenever I log on (rarely) it's 9 weird engagement-bait bad construction videos asking me to follow them, and one actual post from someone I used to know in college and am actually Friends™ with. Useless website.

Man, Farscape is the best. Can't wait until my kids are old enough I can watch it with them. I think I need to start my oldest on some TNG soon, though

I don't suppose you know what's going on with the US release? Our son is very excited about this book, he tore through the first four this summer. But when I asked at our local bookstore about pre-ordering, they couldn't quite figure out how to get a hold of it.
