Surprisingly, this is not a Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy reference, but an actual fact. From Burnout: Solve Your Stress Cycle, by Emily and Amelia Nagoski

I think Doctor Emily Nagoski has a PHD but YEAH

[bold, centered text] Forty-Two Percent [bold ends]

So how much is “adequate”?

Science says: 42 percent.

That’s the percentage of time your body and brain need you to spend resting. It’s about ten hours out of every twenty-four. It doesn’t have to be every day; it can average out over a week or a month or more. But yeah. That much.

“That’s ridiculous! I don’t have that kind of time!” you might protest - and we remind you that we predicted you might feel that way, back at the start of the chapter.

We’re not saying you [italic] should [end italic] take 42 percent of your time to rest; we’re saying if you don’t take the 42 percent , the 42 percent will take you. It will grab you by the face, shove you to the ground, put its foot on your chest, and declare [image ends here, mid-sentence]

Here’s the last paragraph, completed courtesy of Goodreads:

We’re not saying you should take 42 percent of your time to rest; we’re saying if you don’t take the 42 percent, the 42 percent will take you. It will grab you by the face, shove you to the ground, put its foot on your chest, and declare itself the victor.

Oh I see so it’s not that the person who made it was cultivating the strangest vibe possible for the grimace birthday playlist it’s that they put every song ever on it

The word “faggot” appears in the lyrics on this playlist multiple times. Dead Kennedy’s are on here.

guy who conceptually confuses renfaire and pride

renfaire is what pride wishes it could be. Public sex and debauchery, more of it gay than you’d think. It gets a pass for being nerd shit so nobody really does discourse posts about whether it’s cool to get a handjob from a stacked blonde in a barely-historically-justified bodice, saying “zounds” when you ejaculate, etc

By contrast pride is what renfaire wants in its heart to be: a raucous and fashionable party sterilized and made barely-respectable by an endless tide of corporate charitable-giving graft, a form of public education and a frustrating yet irreplaceable thread in the tapestry of historical memory. All things under Heaven contain their opposites

People who HAVEN’T read Discworld: Which of these things DIDN’T happen?

Death gets a job as a line cook

A middle-aged protagonist saves the world with a half a brick in a sock

The god of evolution started making Australia but never finished it

A man goes into a barbarian rage by screaming his son a bedtime story at 6PM

A fancy psychiatrist goblin plays basketball

Half the dwarf population have a trans revolution throughout several books

Wizards invent a computer, and Death makes the computer want a teddy bear

Two witches go to the opera after one gets rich writing a lewd cookbook

A charlatan gets hanged and then has to work as postmaster general

They talk about gay wizard sex at one point

Saw this trend going around and knew Discworld would be a fun one for it. Really wish I could make more and longer poll options.

Other options I considered (all real);

  • Platoon of lesbians and transmen commit war crimes for an entire book (Go read Monstrous Regiment)
  • Man arrests two entire nations because “war is just crime on a larger scale”; he makes every single soldier play sports instead.
  • Death is a bad dad (even more so grandad)
  • Go read Discworld right now you won’t regret it.
