And, for a given value of existence, there's fossils and oil.

It's honestly a shame that the closest thing we've had to a space agency for so long is a museum in Woomera to when we worked with the Japanese space agency out there.

Also, both title and author are readily available in the first comment I made on this post.

Mate, once again, I'm shortening, simplifying and attempting to recall information from a book I read at least four years ago, though now that I think about where I read it six may be more accurate. I could be relaying completely false information due to how it's filtered through my worldview and how poor my memory generally is. Besides, if my memories ARE correct, the book's connections are between how the modern world is the most information-dense environment in history and how those who can adapt well to that can thrive, not connecting endearing nerds to those whose lives are ruined by a maladjustment of their own brain.

And I am actually on the autism spectrum myself, so I should know a thing or two about it. I'm not saying that all people on the ASD are nerds (which I will admit was a terrible way to word that, and was a response to how the book presents itself) and acknowledge that there are many terrible effects that are experienced by those with low-functioning autism.

I'm recalling something I read about four years ago and then shortening what I do remember, so I could have given you the wrong idea about "short circuiting." Besides, most of the book was about how nerds, who consist a large part of the ASD population, are coming out on top of today's society when compared to the physical characteristics that were so important previously.

I remember reading in a book called Unnatural Selection (written by Mark Roeder, since apparently there are a bunch of books with that title) that there is a theory that it's a response to the high-information-density nature of the modern world that, in the way that the brain's response to anything can, often goes a little off the deep end of the adaptation that the brain is trying to make.

owww my bones hurt a lot oww oof my booones

Australians have, or at least had, a tendency for this; calling redheads Bluey, or fat guys Slim.

He just drew less attention to it than the sentient pumpkin that was somehow voted in as POTUS.

Really weird to read as an Australian, since they're the colours our national sport teams wear.

It's not a second cousin or cousin once removed if they're a cousin's cousin but not related to you, is it?

Oh, right. I've been meaning to read more of his stuff than just Uzumaki and the one with the person-shaped holes in a fault line that I forget the name of, but I've been fairly busy and the manga reader I use doesn't work at school.

I'm afraid that I have no clie what you're referring to. I was making a reference to a horror mangaka, if you're confused by what I said.

Or have a penis. Or both.
