PSA most white garments are dyed white and will yellow if bleached. There are almost no “true white” fabrics/fibers in nature (cotton and wool are more cream colored, for example) so be careful using bleach on your clothes

I like the allegory to magic you’re implying at some points because it really seems like an apt comparison for the way an SS uses the legal/government system. Like it’s some sort of arcane power and they can harness it for their own gains with certain incantations (“I comprehend”), runes (writing legal codes on your envelope to get out of paying postage), or crafted artefacts (fake IDs and license plates).

Sometimes I feel slightly robbed when this happens. Like damn I was just gearing up for a marathon troubleshooting session and now I just get to use the software as intended?

Yes. Just got back from the pediatrician and the take home handout said (again) not to feed your kid juice as there’s little to no nutritional value and a butt load of sugar

Not sure how common this is nationally, but around here it’s also common for the older generation to maintain two properties a “home” in the city/metro area near their kids or grandkids and a “cabin” which is literally a second home somewhere else.

I think it’d be great to give up the home in the metro and downsize to a condo or apartment, but that’s just me.

Red flag collectors are in for a great year

I agree, but I also feel that decision should be made at the federal level thereby barring a candidate from ALL states rather than states selectively barring candidates they don’t like.

Thank you! This is an easy pill for some of us to swallow when these states are barring Trump, but blocking a candidate from the ballot for ANY reason at the state level sets a dangerous precedent.

All this talk of Quebecois separatisme is giving me think DFW was a lot more prophetic than we thought…

There WOULD be more suburbs to develop if we were allowed to work remotely. I would gladly move to the developing suburb of bumfuck-nowheresville if I could go there and keep my job, but I have to stay within a reasonable commuting distance of the nearest metropolis.

Just FYI, the generally preferred term these days is “massage therapist.” Last I heard “masseuse” and “masseur” (the masculine version) have an implicit sexual connotation that “massage therapist” does not. Unless that’s what you were recommending instead of chiropractic, in which case carry on!

Among children and young people aged 0 – 19 years in the US, COVID-19 ranked eighth among all causes of death; fifth among all disease-related causes of death; and first in deaths caused by infectious or respiratory diseases.

It was not even true a year ago, actually, unless you slice the data down to only look at deaths caused by infectious or respiratory diseases which, frankly, feels like a pretty obvious outcome for 2020-2022.

Wait… waterfall is waterfall with steps 🤔

Come to Missouri! We may not have the best schools, but our schools have the sexiest teachers!

Iirc they backed a trans influencer drawing conservative outrage, then, after realizing that the conservatives were a large part of their customer base, they did a 180 and publicly cut ties with the influencer thereby also alienating the customers they hoped to gain in the first place while also not gaining back much of their conservative customers.

Someone feel free to fact check me I’m drawing on memory here.

In 20 years he’s gonna be hosting full-on Saw-style death challenges for scammers.

It also functioned well as a metaphor for growing up/loss of innocence. I’m not sure how well it will go trying to explore that theme further using the same metaphor.

That whole movie was just absolute dog water. There’s are good ways to do lowbrow comedy and then there’s Sausage Party.

You can’t believe that people would want heroic doses of sugar and caffeine, two of the most available addictive substances on the market?

Also a lot of people don’t like the taste of coffee or tea
