A place to post memes & images that won't absolutely obliterate your mental health! Memes must not stray into hopelessness and be generally positive or neutral.

I made this with my kid in mind, so that they can have a good, safe place to look at memes, just made to make folks laugh and smile!

Only goofs & silliness. (:

We're not ghosts. We're programs running on biological computers. Electrical charges and chemical signals coursing through fatty tissue. Reality is far more fascinating than any fiction we've ever come up with.

Electrical charges and chemical signals coursing through fatty tissue.

Akshualy, it's not electrical charges (like, plugging a wire) but cascades of ion potentials triggering. Main difference is speed (neurons/nerves being way slower) and built-in touch-sensitivity.

~~And also not programs, since we are hard- and software in one.~~

Even a hardwired program is still a program. And we still don't really know how all of this works.

You're a lump of electric meat piloting a bone mech with meat armor.
