@internetarchive I’m trying to imagine peanut butter with olives, or with sardines! (tongue is still served in delis)

@inquiline Historian John Barry wrote an excellent history of the 1918 flu pandemic and one of the strangest observations he makes in that book is that there’s almost no cultural trace of the disease. Where are the songs, poems, films, and novels portraying the days when people died in scores?There’s almost no trace.That seemed bizarre to me, but it’s pretty much what we’ve done with Covid

@stux I remember having a roomba (early model). It drove me bonkers every time it would go back and forth over the same spot 6 times, completely ignoring the pile of crumbs *next* to it….I think they expect the owner to leave the house and not notice how absolutely ridiculous the device can be.
