"MIDI Sprout enables plants to play synthesizers in real time."

Th--wai--what? I am so confused.

Actually, on second thought, that could be really cool. Weird, but neat. Too expensive for me, though. Why do they insist on using biodegradable corn plastic and local materials? D:

Why did nobody ever told me this was a thing?

Now I pretty much have to read them all >.>

[Frumple]

... the reading order list, or star trek novels in general?

Because there's plenty (or some, anyway) that don't seem to be on that list, too. I've... I think I've got around a half dozen or so Kirk-era books laying around. You seem to find 'em relatively often in yard sales, thrift shops, library cleansing... stuff like that. Not even that bad of a read, from what I recall.

Books in general.

Dude, books have been a thing for a long time. Like, hundreds of years.

Dude. Time shenanigans, remember?

I'd always thought that there was the implication that 00 agent identities were transferred to new agents on death/retirement.

Thus explaining why 007 has not only not aged in all the years he's been in service, he's actually grown younger.

I heard a theory that 007 was a time lord like The Doctor in Doctor Who. It explains why he keeps changing appearances, age, and is able to recover from wounds that should definately have killed him.

It also explains rather nicely why the Soviets are no longer used as the big bad guys... though seeing as most of MI6's time is spent nowadays working against Islamic fundamentalist groups it doesnt really explain why Bond is not seducing some lonley goat herders wife on a lonley afghani hillside.

We're gonna need to call in Xantalos on this one.

[Descan]

I don't know if Xantalos can even comprehend books. Tiny stacks of paper that hold knowledge, that you can absorb into yourself just by looking at them for a while? Madness!

Osmosis really isn't that hard to understand.

Out of Time man fills me with a sense of extreme unease and I have no idea why. No other song has ever done this, and it did it from the first time I heard it in Breaking Bad.
