HOT HOT TOPICS
– that frog is adorable and we don’t deserve it.
– right wing politicians are against smishsmortion unless they have gotten someone pregnant due to an affair. wtf?
– law enforcement agencies have their own “internal affairs” departments to handle investigations pertaining to internal matters. often, the public hears that internal investigations have turned up no evidence of wrongdoing or misconduct in highly publicized events. how is it that with eye witnesses and even video proof, these investigations come up empty so often?
– does true crime have an ethical issue, how often are the perpetrators almost glamorised or situations represented without consent from either the victim or perpetrators. p.s. I’ll still watch the heck out of it

Mind Your Own Business

QUICK HITS
caleb had many hot sauces. twinstrumental wanted coke. mari wanted cottage cheese and mustard. rafe delivered. there were some great topics and as always, lovely people in chat. it was a fantastic 450th celebration! Here’s to DOUBLE THAT.

low: emotional wrecked

HOT HOT TOPICS
– if you want us to mind our own goddamn business, why are you asking the question?
– are there people in your life who only refer to you by your last name—either mr., ms., miss, mx. or by only your last name. I assume that since caleb was in the military, this would happen more with him, but I could be wrong.
– is there such a thing as owning too many dildos or is that none of my business?
– why are the people who want all the goss and don’t mind their own business just the worst?
– I’m from a generation where people kept many of their problems to themselves. one good thing with the covid pandemic was that mental illness and treatment of such was brought to the forefront. one thing that isn’t talked about a lot is eating disorders, specifically in men. as someone who has an eating disorder, I rarely—if ever—hear other men talking about this type of problem. what are your thoughts on this topic?
– when do you step in and stop minding your own business? mine would be anytime I see someone being treated with disrespect or hurt that can’t speak for themselves…. where’s the line?
– I got an award for doing too much at work. it includes even more work. why can’t the administration just mind their own gawddamn business and leave me alone?!? or at least give me a cash award?

– AI can bring late singers’ voices back to life and create some wonderful new music. (if you haven’t heard elvis singing baby got back, please do.) I would love to hear freddie mercury’s voice singing new songs. is there there an AI generated voice you would like to hear again or a collaboration that you would like ai to bring to fruition?
