What are we when we get too old to drink coffee anymore?

Plz don’t shid on floor

And I can only imagine how they feel when empty.

Always has been.

I was just listening to some interview talking about how, while it was Dems’ efforts that pushed the pandemic stimulus checks through Congress, it was Trump’s signature on the check, and that was believed to have had a big impression on demographics no one would ever expect to go with the party of billionaires.

Edit: I should add that I only expect the votes coming from more diverse sources than what might be intuitive, not that all of those voters would be persuaded to go all-out “proud boys”.

It’ll be just like 2020: react after the damage is done and pretend they weren’t complicit.

You’ve been waiting for this moment…

One of the best feelings I ever felt was laying in bed the night after a car accident earlier in the day. It was enough of an accident that I was glad to reflect on it not being any worse, but it also wasn’t bad enough to injure anyone.

When I climbed into bed that night, I was seriously doing that thing dogs do when you take them outside and they flop and wallow around on the grass with their feet flailing carelessly in the air. That bed felt so damn good that night, and I try often to remind myself that it’s the same comfy and safe bed now that it was that day.

This is exactly how I used to see things when I grew up in a conservative echo chamber.

And now that I recognize a person’s right to choose and tend to think capital punishment should probably* not be legal, I’ll add that it’s not that my underlying beliefs changed, just how I now understand things. Some people do deserve capital punishment. And innocent people should be protected. But personhood doesn’t start at conception, a person conceiving has a right to decide what happens to their body, and the state can never be trusted to administer capital punishment.

*I say “probably” because I also think it might be necessary to allow it in extreme cases. My reasoning is that if people don’t believe the justice system will adequately punish, they have incentive and no ultimate detergent for taking justice into their own hands.

Just to be really clear, too, they’re looking at local effects (they say “urban microclimate”), not overall climate.

Are there still places that legally mandate car refueling operators? That seemed like a job that literally only existed to give some people a job.

Might have just found out about another?

Nice

Sun Tzu nods, wisely.

I’m under the impression there are more votes to lose by not appearing to stick with Israel than there are votes to lose by not attempting to intervene. At least, that’s what the party appears to have assessed.

Fuck is wrong with you?

Yeah, good point, but that article isn’t talking about what’s in this picture.

Store-bought sandwich bread usually can be kept in the fridge without much change in texture. That’s because it often contains additives and preservatives that keep it fresh longer.

That’s a big motivation for me, too, but I’d say it’s about equally that I want archival of the best stuff for when rights holders pull their catalogs from the services I stream. I used to think that was mainly for the more obscure stuff, like local bands’ early albums that I can barely find anymore, but recently I’ve noticed albums missing from main services (Tidal and Spotify, in my case) for bigger acts, too.

I gnu y’all would find a way to pun it up.
