If food stays on the floor for more than five seconds, it means your dog’s getting old.

I avoid using the iron. Not just during thunderstorms. You can never be too careful.

The water can still conduct electricity. I’ll admit that it’s anecdotal, but when lightning struck a tree at my dad’s place it chased a plastic water supply line underground and cracked it along quite a lot of its length.

It’s very important that when we protest the actions of the wealthy elite ruling class that we do it in a way in which they always feel safe, secure, and comfy. Can’t have them shaken up or slightly inconvenienced in any way, that would be gauche.

That’s always tough with family. I like to follow that up with “should a baby be a punishment?” And “ what does your god/religion say about making mistakes and forgiveness?”

Simple rule - anyone trying to be cool while communicating with anyone a decade+ younger than them is not cool. I don’t care what you’re doing or even if the younger person literally just did it, by you doing it, it’s uncool. And even past that being uncool, actively doing anything in any way to try and fight that in…

Gen X over here sending whatever because we’re bred to not care.

I take solace that in 15-20 years, they too will be cringe and unable to help it.

I am all about getting this show going again. Reboot, sequel, reimagining... whatever. It’s a concept that is incredibly easy to execute and be imaginative in, and dangit, setting right what once went wrong is just a feel-good concept, consarnit. More Quantum Leap, please!

When social justice movements of the past have challenged laws like these, they very carefully picked their poster children. This is why people know the name Rosa Parks, and far less know the name Claudette Colvin.

I want to send alllll the conservative so-0called “pro-lifers” (self righteous uninformed assholes) to live in an alternate universe where they are destitute women in the 50's. Let them see exactly why we carry signs with coat hangers and demand access to abortion as a part of women’s healthcare.

The gauntlet has been thrown down. I predict this will go all the way to the Supreme Court, where the spineless conservative justices will have to actually rule on it instead of handwaving away that it’s too novel an approach. This law is bad in so many ways, and I am glad he is taking a stand. Also that at least one…

We are so fucked.

Including Covid-19!  They love to put that shit in their bodies.

Not to mention “Get government out of my health care!”

Anyone else constantly laugh at right wingers taking whatever random junk with absolutely no research to prevent covid instead of one of the extensively studied, tracked, and proven vaccines?

“Office, Outlook, OneNote, and OneDrive will need to migrate over to the web to access files and folders.”

....and nothing of value was lost.

Yes! A family member, with a good career and an understanding of mental illness - like his daughter Britney. After all, she’s had a successful showbiz career for many years, has raised 2 children - I think she should be granted conservatorship of him.

Can I recruit people who have free time and know how to work a deal to go in to skeezy dealerships on their busiest days and tie them up for hours working through deals and then just walk away.  Waste their time as much as you can?  Play the four square game with them.  Whatever?
