Sand, Hoarder of interesting things

Ok so roads are important infrastructure. A lot of stuff that's important happens on roads. Now, let's imagine that quadrillionaire Matt Stench has decided that the next big tech innovation is the Wide Car. It's a car that takes up six lanes despite seating only one passenger.

The Wide Car is supposed to be the future, and everyone's going to be driving Wide Cars, even though nobody who makes Wide Cars is turning a profit. Employers are offering Wide Cars as an employee benefit, and getting "nah." Some employers are going as far as demanding their employees drive Wide Cars, and the result is that people take time out of their workdays to get in the mandatory gas usage for their Wide Car before driving home in a regular car.

In spite of the fact that the Wide Car is clearly set to fail, there's an enormous push to expand to twelve-lane roads to accommodate a bunch of Wide Cars that simply will not materialize. This is not an organic response to demand, but a speculative investment that amplifies the existing issues with road development for no good reason.

So that means Rocky and Grace are the historical figures who saved Vulcan from extinction.

Since Mary’s ship logs were dispersed and studied, I like to imagine that Vulcans think of Rocky and Grace with a sort of reverence. Maybe they have statues of them in the Katric Ark. In the Kelvin timeline, after the events of Nero, the old symbols and statues are resurrected on New Vulcan, this time with some new additions.

And that is how the city center of New Shikahr ends up having four prominent statues; an Eridian and a Terran who saved Vulcan’s planet, and a Vulcan and his Terran Captain who could not save the planet but managed to preserve Vulcan culture along with the Elders and save as many lives as they could which allowed the Vulcan race to avoid extinction once again.

"People back then always married young it's natural!!!" Every single 1800s guide I've ever met casually mentions that, of course, you really shouldn't get married before you're at least 20, and waiting until 25 is usually better.

Or, like. Okay here's a long segment:

Just firmly going "it is crazy sexist to blame The Wife for overspending when thirty seconds of asking questions will immediately establish that her husband was outright lying to her about how much money they had. Talk to your wife like a normal person."

Or--okay, here. A section on being honest and not writing love letters in secret, because that's usually a good sign that there's something untoward going on....

....except that he then immediately acknowledges that sometimes, the reason you're hiding this from your parents is that your parents suck. That there are parents who frankly have not earned the right to approve or disapprove of your partner.

I really like the ideas I’ve seen about Jax’s abstraction hair showing her emotions—especially ones that she might be trying to hide :)

Before Pride Month comes to an end, I wanted to memorialize my husband unintentionally calling me a bisexual failure at the start of the month. (We laughed about it later, and I wasn't really offended!)
