The bible also makes it clear that your wife can get pregnant even if you didn’t do the deed… so, reap what you sow…

And… they took away the cracker.

That used to be a slur… but like all things MAGA it became something they were proud of…

Can’t help but wonder how old and what this guy was doing around the turn of the century… #bubble

There is no such thing as a new car, of any kind… ev, gas, diesel, etc… available for sale in the United States for $5,000.

Is this what “winning” looks like?

How the hell do you not know a damn thing about science but you have numerology down pat? #stupidity

How, exactly, did your “bone spurs” contribute to victory?

TIL about metallic hydrogen

Finally!

Every article talking about a portion of the country should have a map showing exactly what that portion is.

Started to read this article and have decided to die on this hill…

Oklahoma and Texas are not in the west.

We put up enough with the “midwest” bullshit but the US is no longer the 13 colonies… time to grow up.

The attached image has my line in the sand, and honestly… it is too far east #imho

The line should be the Rocky Mountains.

10 year fed employee in Montana was fired because he was recently promoted… which put him in a probationary status.

It isn’t just new employees…

@VeroniqueB99

Sent this to a friend who’s wife got one of those emails…

There are federal employees working today, Saturday… a day they don’t normally work… to issue letters firing people.

Salt in the wound.

It is going to take two and a half days to go from Missoula to Missoula.

So this is a new one for me… product comes from Spokane to Missoula (the final destination) and is then sent to Billings… where it will inevitably be sent to… Missoula.

You could walk across Missoula in the time it takes to go to Billings and back.

@cstross

I just ordered two.

I have an air tag in my camper. One will go there. (and I’m hoping it makes it less likely you could hear it beeping)

And I bought the second just because of the pricing… but I think it will go into the dry bag for my inflatable kayaks.

Both are items I want to work when I need them and hope I never do.

If the other monkeys let this happen, we would say they deserved to starve.

Monkeys would not let this happen.

Mastodon.sdg.org has been having issues the last two days and I sincerely believe the ‘pub’ part of ‘activitypub’ was a serious mistake.

If I ran my own instance, how would I retrieve everything that was missed while the server was offline and did not get the pub notifications? #JustWondering

Am I completely misunderstanding the protocol?

It is telling how little so many men know about women.

And what a wonderful journey life is when you don’t exclude more than half of the world’s population.

Unpopular opinion: I think that getting rid of the electoral college is the wrong goal.

We need to get rid of the entire concept of states being able to do whatever they want.

“States rights” exist only because of slavery.

Kill it.

One government, for all.

@futzle

When in the Air Force the lab supervisor realized that everything I touched went to shit… so, they put me in charge of QA.

We had one of the lowest failure rates in the service that year.

When working at a nuclear weapons plant and the team wanted to work overtime… they would take me with them. Because, if something is broke… you stay until it is fixed.

I don’t break the stuff… but if it is flaky, it’ll show its true colors if I am present.
