Counterpoint: I went to a potluck a couple weekends ago and there was chicken mole, ergo, crockpots are not the true villain here

no, all I'm saying is not all kitchen accoutrements
For the most part, I don't have the attention span/organised eating habits to justify buying specialised cookware for myself. 'specially considering I'm not settled down where I am long-term?

A crockpot is on the list of things i would really like to buy if i had the cash
But then i'm 90% transformed into my mother at this point, so
(mum doesn't actually have a crockpot now that i think about it)

Well, see, your perspective is colored by not having the crockpot yourself. You see only its benefits, and none of the weight of adulthood owning it places upon your shoulders.
Like a visitor to a grandiose garden, you only see its beauty, and none of its pain.

Not very! The prostrats are to sit straight down rather than lean back; that way everyone has the weight of one upper body resting on their thighs and their own weight is balanced on the thighs of the person behind them.
We assembled 2500 people toe-to-toe about one and a half times round an athletics track with the mayor at the start sitting on the chair, but the final count would stop at any point where someone disengaged their butt from the person behind them's lap during the necessary minute.
Because of this we manage 2087, breaking the old record by ~200 individuals, but that meant me and my friend at positions 2162 +2163 technically didn't break the record.
On the bright side, I said hello to loads of people and wasn't socially anxious and made some new connections in the neighborhood. The weather was perfect and I just spent an hour after I got home unfucking the overgrowth that is my backyard and taking photos of neat bugs I found. I'm so hype for it not being winter any more, guys.

2086 people on each other's laps, feet toe-to-heel with the person in front and behind them, a line extending one and a half times round an athletics track

This is the chair in question, it was designed by a local furniture maker and given away afterward as one of many Fabulous Prizes for participants

He's starting it now and it's going to run straight to 4/13 at which point he'll helldump whatever's left at once:

That should immediately be followed by 7 days of updates (about 40 total pages), ending with an update on 4/13, the 7th anniversary of Homestuck. That update will contain ACT 7 in its entirety.

Seeing numbers like that makes me grateful for the fact I won't be reading any of them.

I dunno what's going to be more grating on me over the next fortnight-to-month, Homestuck or people loudly proclaiming how little they now care/ever cared about Homestuck.
