Feels especially poignant given certain things occurring in the world, I hope everyone stays safe 💕💕💕

“It is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it... anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.”

I have no doubt that 42 is consistent with the standard model of cosmology. I have little to no doubt that this standard model is correct, the universe started 13.5 billion years ago with the big band. Most likely they played at some point Tea for Two and forty-two is the necessary deterministic conclusion of "tea for two and two for tea" and this may be the beginning of the deterministic mechanics of our universe, which would possibly mean that you can theoretically calculate every subsequent event from 42. My problem is, this is only true if the non-deterministic quantum-state of the universe collapsed at the same moment completely. That is not necessarily true. Some people even think, that quantum events still exist and the universe isn't deterministic. They claim only then a free will would be possible. And well, now I see mistake. If doubting 42 makes something as ridiculous as free will possible, we shouldn't doubt 42. Sorry I had to waste your time.

Oh freddled gruntbuggly, Thy micturations are to me, As plurdled gabbleblotchits, in midsummer morning On a lurgid bee, That mordiously hath blurted out, Its earted jurtles, grumbling Into a rancid festering confectious organ squealer. Now the jurpling slayjid agrocrustles, Are slurping hagrilly up the axlegrurts, And living glupules frart and stipulate, Like jowling meated liverslime, Groop, I implore thee, my foonting turlingdromes, And hooptiously drangle me, With crinkly bindlewurdles,mashurbitries. Or else I shall rend thee in the gobberwarts with my blurglecruncheon, See if I don't!

So… given what is said about knowing both the answer & the question in the same universe, maybe the ultimate question to life, the universe, & everything is Doctor Who? After all, it was said that that is the first question, & must never be answered. What better answer to it than the ultimate answer, which must never be questioned?

I know this feed is filled with real geniuses , this is doable. Someone make a text reader that uses the "guide" voice to read Wikipedia to you that has a user interface that resembles the guide. Also you could add the music accompanyment and little sound effects. Life kind loves having stuff read to it . AAannnndddd GO.

The book says only six people in the entire universe understood the real job of the president. Was ZB one of those six?

Psst! The Douglas Adams: Explaining the World kickstarter campaign ends in 48 hours.

I always thought that the ‘sorry for the inconvenience’ was actually what Marvin saw when he looked through the telescope as it was broken, only upon re-reading the book around 20 years later do I now realise my mistake. Did anyone else think this on a first read through? Would have been quite in keeping with Adams and his humour so I can understand my younger self’s mistake.

So small story first. I went to a gaming convention and found a "Don't Panic" pin in the iconic text. I had it pinned to my backpack on the way home. Somewhere in the airport or on the plane, it had come off and I didn't notice until I got home.

I told my friends and my brother (who went with me to the con) and they all said "Just Don't Panic."

That is all.
