Confused.  I thought there was separation between church and state?

Multifactor authentication!  They get loads of calls from people trying to steal other people’s accounts, so they have to be careful.

Related - I bought the Corsair K95 Platinum - basically, their $200 high-end gaming keyboard. It’s pretty neat, but has essentially no manual, a counter-intuitive setup program, and no online help. The only support is a YouTuber with some excellent primer videos. I suggested they should pay him, and I mean it. The…

I agree.  Multifactor authentication, every time, people!

That is a reasonable question, given the attention paid to women’s underwear in these situations. Was he wearing his favorite underwear? If so, it was presumably because he wanted to have sex with someone. If he wasn’t out with his girlfriend, but still wearing his favorite, that’s clear evidence that he was hoping to…

I’m not sure that I’ve ever had bad bacon.

If there’s one takeaway from the last two years it is that Evangelicals are the least moral “moral majority” in the country.  Quite disgusting how quick they were to abandon their professed deeply-held principles.  They are reading a different Book than the one I’m familiar with.

Rudy likes his cigar bars. I met him in one once, in about the year 2000. He was there with his then mistress (he was on his second marriage at the time), and his security team. He later married her - this (wife #3) is the one he’s divorcing now. The GOP is full of examples of how insecure you should feel when you get…

Such a low bar, yet here we are...

The story is good, but depends too much on the mother’s character changing to fit the needs of that week’s plot. This week, she was the voice of reason (“no, we must stay hidden, to save everyone!”). Other weeks she’s been psycho mom, using drug addition to torture someone into giving her what she wants. Other weeks…

Perfect headline. And this is so true:

I tried to get my 14yo son to watch The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly with me. The key scene at the end is basically the three protagonists staring at each other, motionless except for the odd twitch, for several minutes. And it’s amazing. I was bouncing up and down on the couch singing along to the score; he was on his…

Disgruntled cocker spaniel on dog Klonopin Kellyanne Conway attempted to blame the fatal shooting at Pittsburgh’s Tree of Life synagogue, which left 11 people dead, on “anti-religiosity,” ignoring the shooter’s history of professed anti-Semitism.

Interesting that he’s forced to focus on the injustice of the pursuit - because he was actually guilty of the crime and deserved to go to jail, so JK can’t argue with that. But as you say, people like that don’t expect to be pursued.

I will have to look it up, thanks!

Why is it safe to say such a pulse would seriously injure or even kill you? It’s only 40 joules. I’d have to do the calculation, but I bet that doesn’t heat a body up much. I wonder if it would just ablate the surface - so you’d lose the top layer of skin, before being dispersed by the ash and vapor thus produced.…

Totally.  Normally, if you’re unable to do your job, you’re fired.  If you’re unable to do your job in a way that adversely affects someone else’s health, you should be fired quickly, and possibly exposed to legal action.

This an opportunity to recommend The Water Knife, by Paolo Bacigalupi, which is excellent.

Agreed. As all the left-leaning press is salivating about getting women out to vote, he doubles down on misogyny.

A semicolon would have been an improvement. But, then again, so would have been spelling “Daniels” correctly. And not writing the tweet at all.
