i was at a bar, because i intended to visit walmart, and walmart is far more tolerable after two beers. however, my buddy lewis called me a few minutes after i'd ordered my first beer. i could barely hear him over the din of the bar. i decided to consume two (2) beers and one (1) giant pretzel before leaving the bar and calling him back.
he's walking through the woods (i can hear confirmation of this). he's going to a party at his family's. do i want to go? ok, sure. i haven't seen him in weeks, months and this is out of nowhere, but yes, totally, great to hear from you again. we agree to meet in a gas station parking lot, and he shows up precisely from the opposite direction i expect. apparently, he was at the house where the party was, and walking away from it, when he called me saying he was going to it and did i want to go. best i can figure, anyways.
anyways, later, after the party, i drive him back to the place he's staying temporarily. this lady whose place it is, she's like... holy shit. zonked the fuck out. she keeps asking the same question over and over again.
how much does your place cost? and it includes utilities? *three minutes pass* how much does your place cost? and it includes utilities? can you taste the caramel on this popcorn? it doesn't taste like caramel to me
can you taste the caramel on this popcorn? it doesn't taste like caramel to me
i'm sixty-five, do i look it? i'm sixty-five, do i look it?
then at moments she's randomly tearing up about her son, who died. but then -- can you taste the caramel on this popcorn? it doesn't taste like caramel to me. oh, you got a place?
bottom line: this does not seem like alzheimers. she admitted to liking alcohol, but this seems more. what was she on? ambien maybe? never touched that crap myself

RMS is an autistic dickhead and #metoo will always react to him with spasmodic indigence. i will, however, continue to use emacs, and GNU/Linux. if you call it Linux, he flips the fuck out -- because it's GNU/Linux, ok?
his argument here, as i understand it, is that marvin minsky -- who is, actually, whom marvin the paranoid android was named after -- believed the girl to be consenting, and so when you slap on the label of sexual assault, it makes it sound far worse than it actually was.
lost, somewhere in the distance, is essentially, "yes, it was bad, but the words you are using to describe the level of bad do not meet GNU/Linux standards"

in high school a classmate launched some project and it got slashdotted and RMS offered to donate money on the condition that only. free. software was used. ok, sure, lol
later, he found someone working on the thing had installed an editor or something that wasn't open source, and he had a fucking meltdown. oh, sorry, we'll uninstall it
really, it's sad. RMS has always been notoriously tone-deaf, but everyone was like: oh, god, yeah, he does that. the software is good, though, so whatever
the tech community appreciates his work deeply. the tech community has also spent decades pretending they're not familiar with his usenet posts

hard to say without knowing her. there's a guy in here who maybe a quarter to a third of the time will open a dialogue with the same question - "do you like david bowie?" i think he's just another schizophrenic but he is getting old, maybe 60 or so, so i guess it could be another thing going on.
was she slurring her words? i know when i mixed booze and benzos i'd slur like fuck but not realize it. ambien is related to the zopiclone we get in the uk and that drastically decreased my booze tolerance when i mixed it, but it was slur / stagger not memory impairment that was the giveaway with that.
long and short of it: dunno

Wouldn’t be Ambien, looks like there’s a mental issue, that could of course be exacerbated by alcohol.
I saw an old friend today for a few Minutes at the mall. He’s lost it a bit. He told me he’d been dematerialisating” again, and that last time was he was really lucky he materialised again. He also told me that it’s annoying that he remembers that he played Woodstock in a previous life, and often materialises the guitar. I met this guy when he was in his late thirties and he was fine, bit of a hippy, smoked his weed and painted, and over the course of ten years I saw him slowly drop into a world of paranoia, which itself slowly lead into foly. Nice fella, though he once punched me 15 times. True story!

i asked lewis and lewis said, "oh, she's drunk." but, heck, i've talked with lots of drunk people, and yes, alcohol can cause some memory issues, but i've never seen it turn anyone into the memento guy. i mentioned this and he kind of shrugged, he didn't really know either
i heard some alcohol in her voice, but no, she was not slurring. there were also no secondary indications; she wasn't stumbling or anything
