Random Quote

If you are either already saved or damned, and this is determined even before you are born, and there is nothing you can do to change that, wouldn't that weigh heavily on one's attempt to live a meaningful life? Would it not preclude a meaningful life? And what of salvation by grace? If there is a god, and we cannot be saved by anything we do, and, since we would deserve damnation, we could not deserve any worse than we do already, what would be the point of performing any one action as opposed to any other? How do these xians get meaning in their lives? These are well-known theological problems which have never been satisfactorily resolved.

Doug Krueger, "That Colossal Wreck"

Someone's got a cephalopod fetish…everyone knows how nerdy that makes you, right?

I have become increasingly aware of how nerdy this makes me. I can directly blame you for sparking the obsession after seeing your post on cephalopodmas. It's been all downhill from there.

Don't blame me. It's the irresistible cuddly charm of the cephalopod that's at fault.

Is that Cthulhu on the top of the tree?
