  • Mom’s side of the family is Catholic and my dad’s side is super reserved, so I got nothing. Anything I know comes from school health classes (which were actually really informative) and the internet.

    My mom also believes that this sort of thing shouldn’t be taught in schools (at all) because it should be up to the parents to decide what their kids should know about the subject. She also says that her parents never taught her anything.

    I have a Thinkpad T480 that I’m very happy with. I believe it’s around 7 or 8 years old, but it works great. Unlike most laptops, it doesn’t have soldered RAM, so it’s easily upgraded. One downside is that most units don’t come with a lot of storage, so you’ll probably want to get a larger drive. I spent around $200 on mine plus another $100 for the SSD. It’s a great inexpensive laptop that’ll last for years.


  • I have a large collection of game consoles, with several being older than myself. Just to list the ones that are at least 20 years old:

    • NES
    • PC Engine (Core Grafx II)
    • Game Boy
    • Genesis (Model 2) + Sega CD (Model 2)
    • SNES
    • Game Gear
    • Saturn (Model 2)
    • PlayStation
    • Nintendo 64
    • Game Boy Pocket
    • Game Boy Color
    • Dreamcast
    • WonderSwan Color
    • PlayStation 2
    • Game Boy Advance
    • GameCube
    • Xbox

    I also have some old A/V stuff, like a small collection of CD Walkmans and most of the pieces in my stereo system (the turntable is new, but everything else is pretty old). I buy a lot of old electronics from thrift stores because I really just love playing with them.
