Welcome to the 13th Amendment...
Do they have a matching bra? You know, for the boooo-bies?
Interfaces in Aliens, 1986.
Note from an older person: we fucked up. I apologize. Please unfuck the world, for your own sake.
We need a Pokémon/Star Wars crossover. I'm just not sure which side most of them would be on.
i'm bored someone start an argument
You're only saying this because it's true.
The warning is for those who claimed offense at the following observation, made in this space a few days back: “What Americans have lost — to be painfully accurate, what Republicans have trashed in pursuit of power — is the willingness and ability to share a common national identity.” It would seem to be self-evident truth. But not everyone agrees.
“Constantly blaming Republicans,” griped one respondent.
“You ONLY blame the Republicans,” complained another.
“You exclusively blame Republicans,” grumbled yet another.
Well, there’s a reason the Republicans get the blame for destroying any sense of common American narrative. It’s because — pay close attention here — they deserve the blame for destroying any sense of common American narrative.
Sorry, but Hunter Biden’s laptop didn’t do that. Black Lives Matter didn’t do that. Whatever thing Fox “News” last told its audience to fear did not do that.
The Republican Party did it by a campaign of demonizing dissent, shredding norms and boundaries, embracing a politics of white resentment and fear and, perhaps most corrosively, delegitimizing the very idea of knowable fact, so that an ordinary birth certificate becomes an object of suspicion, an ordinary election a seedbed of distrust and the sacking of the U.S. Capitol an innocent visit by tourists.
With a billion dollars, you could spend 34 grand a day for 80 years. It would take a person working full time at minimum wage 2 years to make 34 grand.
This picture has been circulating all over social media and I have more to add:
Delete all period cycle tracking apps off your phone today.
Do not tell anyone why you want to take your trip, especially over text/apps.
Do not tell anyone the real state/destination of your trip.
Have everyone on your trip turn off their phones. Use written directions or a burner phone. Do not use burner phone to open any personal apps. Dispose of after trip.
Only use cash while purchasing ANYTHING on your trip.
Take “vacation” photos to post later. Be cautious of geo-tags/only post screenshots of the original photos.
Some people might say this is being extra or overly precautious, but this really is the reality we are facing. People have been imprisoned with murder charges in certain states- some for literal miscarriages. If you are a person that ends up in this situation, the state can and will use your data against you as evidence in court. Do not leave a paper trail. If they want to treat us like criminals, we’re gonna move like criminals.
The situation: it's late, I'm tired, but I need to shower. There is a huge selection of hair care products on the bar above the shower door.
The bad news: I just decide to grab anything that says "shampoo". I mean, it's all pretty much the same, right?
The good news: the shampoo smells terrible, but apparently, I'll be free of fleas and ticks for 4 to 6 weeks.
If it is a busy day, with lots of pen work, I may use them all. I default to the fountain pen, because it forces me to write deliberately. It's how I'm working to improve my penmanship. I'm often teased because I end up with 6 to 8 pens in my pocket on a normal day.
