Man was a petty bitch until he secured the existence of god's people and a future for the believers of his child.

Also if you capitalize god you're a cuck. Wish we still had the tag to take care of saying that for me.

It’s a story of how his daughters raped him really

That's the story but I'm pretty sure it actually happened the other way around.

Just finished reading Earth by Jon Stewart and writers from the Daily Show. Pretty humorous.

Just finished a reading project I'd been chipping away at for years. When I was 15 years old I happened upon a short story collection by Isaac Asimov and "The Last Question" inspired a life-long love of science fiction. The story involves a recurring thematic element called Multivac which Asimov used in 16 of his stories. Back in February I shared a photo of the exceedingly rare 1956 issue of Science Fiction Quarterly I tracked down which marked the first-ever printing of "The Last Question" for my library.

I constructed a spreadsheet of every one of the stories and then researched and documented the complete publication history of each story so I could secure copies of every one. It was quite a challenge as the first tale, "Question," was only published in a 1955 issue of Computers and Automation magazine and was subsequently withdrawn for being too similar to one by another author at the time. Thanks to The Internet Archive I was able to download a hi-res scan of the original magazine to complete my reading project.

Tonight I finished the 16th story, published in a pulp zine in 1983 which I found in a used bookshop. It was a wonderfully satisfying project.

Thank you, Dr. Asimov.

Time to actually educate myself with a topic that will be talked about endlessly for the rest of our lives, apparently.
