@freemo Well he said "with no drawbacks" so we know that eliminates the baseball bat to the printer fix from Office Space.
@ryansingel They do?! I better move.
@itnewsbot 1.8 million is nothing compared to the billions lost in the 2008-2009 stock market caused housing bubble crisis... and there has yet to be ANYONE held accountable for that, over 15 years later.
@QOTO Recognizing all your hard work. I'm sure it isn't easy running a large mastodon instance on what's probably a mostly thankless job. So, on that note... thank you. It is certainly appreciated.
Update: So we're going for a house that has said decorative fireplace. At least the realtor for the listing was honest and didn't try photoshopping in some fire.
Growing up, I my schools never made any kind of observance about day 100. My kids go to different schools and each school makes a big deal out of it now, and they're schools near where I used to attend.
A typical school year is 180 days, why did they start making a big deal out of 100 days? It's past the half point, which I think would be more of a milestone than some arbitrary number picked out because it happens to be the first third digit day.
The skin of your laundry pods dissolve in the washing machine, right?
They dissolve into microplastic.
And wastewater treatment systems have no way to filter that out so the microplastics go straight into streams and the ocean.
Just pour your laundry soap out of a box or bottle.
In her latest unhinged rant, Nikki Haley now says "Texas can secede if that's what it's voters want."
Okay, let's do the math on that.
If Texas secedes:
•Texas loses $68.2B in Federal aid
•GOP loses 2 US Senate seats, Dems lose 0
•GOP loses 27 US House seats, Dems lose 11
•Dems win permanent control of US House, US Senate, & White House
MAGAs never think these things through, do they? They don't care about the Constitution or national unity—only uninhibited power.
Vote GOP Out Permanently.
@dalias It's "we need whatever talking point best suits our preferred political party's narrative in order to criticize the other one."
OH HELL YES!

@GottaLaff
Bastions of "free speech" he wants all he can get, but *constantly* denies it to reporters.
@GottaLaff
I'm sure Baldwin's lawyers will be asking to dismiss it due to the Constitution's double jeopardy clause. With that acquittal, I think the only hope for punishing him is through the civil courts. And that would only be monetary damages.
Just remember that even if you were just a drop in the ocean.
You are still the ocean.

Let's hope the pattern continues 🤗

We are star stuff. We are the universe made manifest, trying to figure itself out. And as we have both learned, sometimes the universe requires a change of perspective.
