If SNL is so awful and needs to be pulled off the air, why are you still watching it?

Now playing

F’ it - might as well do M.A.S.K and Visionaries, too!

At least for me, the “who can do this unpleasant chore quicker” schtick invariably ended up with each looking at the other and saying “you win.”

Many years ago I was doing a software upgrade in a company accounts department, it was close to Christmas and the staff were going out for their Christmas party for the afternoon. The manager shouted out to everyone to write down their passwords for me so I could access their PC’s while they were gone and to be sure

Oooh, fun jetpack action.

Work like you don’t have kids, raise your kids like you don’t have to work.

Seven billion tickets..... So, anything from the middle shelf.

The cool thing about having Temura Morrison is he could be Jango or Boba in flashback, Boba have fought is way out of the Sarlacc or any number of surviving clones. I’m hoping for some Captain Rex

Initial thoughts on the desktop refresh. Other than the dark mode option...

What I just realized is that the Fitz crossing timelines actually resolves the big plothole in Avengers: Endgame on how old Steve Rogers can appear in the post unsnap MCU timeline....even if he changed the timeline in which he stayed in the 50s (and even operated as Captain America during that time), he could use Pyms

All this timehopping nonsense and they couldn’t work in Bobbi and Hunter

I wouldn’t call that necessarily a problem with the study, since the study was a demonstration of the method. It’s more a problem with how the media has covered the study. The authors do discuss the fleece, and they imply that it is the material, not the gaiter form:

Did... you just call basic scientific discussion “weasel words”?

Question: What studies have you been reading that are ever 100% sure that they have found what they have found?

Because I will say that I’m CERTAIN that uncertain words are generally typical of most scientific and technical conversations.

For example:

If you

Considering that there are conflicting studies, I’m willing to let the science shake out before believing the “dream-sex with witches” doctor.

Also. Also also. Wear the damn mask. This isn’t an accommodations issue, it’s a public health issue. If you can’t for some reason wear a mask, then stay out of the damn store. COVID doesn’t give a shit.

I rather liked Solo but was completely not buying the actor playing young Han.

This is going to be a shit show. That said, marking my calendar because I can’t wait for the videos

Talk to a surgeon. They wear them all the time, walking, working, almost every day of the year their entire working lives for hours and hours at a time. Go tell a surgeon that masks worn over their noses are dangerous or unsafe or hinder their breathing. This is a fabrication of yours. It may be mildly uncomfortable,

Except this is not the flu. The seasonal flu is caused by a virus (actually several viruses, but I’m trying to keep this simple) from the influenza genus (the latin taxonomic name is actually quite a bit longer, but, again, simple). COVID-19 is caused by a virus from the corona genus. These two things are as similar

What exactly do you think is not safe about wearing a mask?
