  • Over the years, I've gotten more accustomed to my sleep paralysis episodes. (Partially because I've trained my husband to wake me when I hum in bed. I can't scream, but I can do a dull, monotone hum.) The result has been my brain making my sleep paralysis demons move towards me faster. in fact, they've recently started full-on sprinting at me and jumping towards me in bed. I can even hear their feet pounding as they run down the hallway.

    Anyway, I do kinda miss it when they just hovered over my bed instead. So, I feel this comic.

    My husband didn't know I had these episodes back when he first started sleeping over at my place. The first time I had one, I awoke him as I lunged at the air above me, seemingly trying to choke thin air. (For me, the paralysis always seems to lift "all at once." And, at the time, I frequently felt the "demons" were sucking my energy. I wanted to stop them. I think this was my brain's way of rationalizing feeling lethargic the day after an episode.)

    Anyway, my husband asked me "what was that!?" I groggily responded "she just wants our money I bet, hah!" and just fell right back asleep.

    He was confused and terrified. He kept talking to me until I woke up enough to explain what happened.

  • It's a reference to Mike Pence and January 6th 2021. Trump incited the mob and sent them to the Capitol building, where Mike Pence was. Trump was reportedly asked about Mike Pence's safety and responded "so what?"

  • "und so weiter" which is a phrase that literally has no English equivalent. It's so special and unique and conveys a feeling of....

    Nah, just kidding. It means "and so forth."

  • How funny, I only recently learned of 9Front after trying to find out if there's still a fork going of the original UNIX OS from Bell Labs (which is exactly what 9Front is... I think.)

    Anyway, nice article. Thanks for posting.

  • What was your most unforgettable dream?

    Jump

  • I had a dream that my cousins and I were having a get-together at my aunt's house, in the yard. My cousin, John, was the last to arrive and his car fell into a ditch as he was attempting to pull into my aunt's driveway.

    We all ran to his aid. He got out quickly and yelled "I'm okay!"

    We all laughed. I said "Wow, this is just like old times! Everyone is here, even (my other cousin) Jane! ... wait, Jane is here?"

    I look at Jane, and time stops. The color fades from the background, but she is still there in full color, smiling at me. I wake up crying.

    Jane (not her real name) died a couple years ago, and I have variations of this dream still.

  • I'm in my mid 30s. Nothing has changed here in that time. SE USA just does not have gas infrastructure.

    Also, I've never heard the word "hob" in my life. A quick Google seems to show that is what we call a "stove top" or a "stove burner" or "stove eye."

    Growing up, every stove I saw had these:

    You still see those, but these days this type is more common:

  • I grew up in rural SE USA and now live in metro SE USA. I have seen gas fireplaces, but they are more of a luxury item and not used for heating. The people who do have them have a gas storage tank on their property, usually.

    I will second only office. It's more stable for me.
