When my youngest daughter was not quite two, we took her to one of those Touch-A-Truck events. Her favorite by far was a tow truck with a god-awful menagerie of extraneous lights and chrome covering every possible non-glass, non-painted surface. Upon spending several minutes oohing and aahing over it, she did an

It was actually in dudeyourrodsinme.

BLM is kinda sketchy to me.

I get why you guys are angry about what this dude tweeted, but he’s kind of right, no?

“A MAN IN MY POSITION CAN’T AFFORD TO BE MADE TO LOOK RIDICULOUS!”

That added sentence doesn’t make up for the shit pile that is the rest of this article.

Yeah I don’t think that last line is enough. The headline – and essentially the whole post – is pretty much stirring shit like, “smile pretty, honey.”

Hell yeah they’re inequitable. I’d kill to be able to dress like my wife in the dead of July. I’m wearing a suit and she’s got a knee length skirt and a tank top under her jacket. 8 seconds after walking outside and she’s got bare arms to her shoulders and nothing covering her knees down while I’ve got a long sleeve

A woman there yelled

I have a good friend who’s NYPD. He got hurt on the job and when he got back from leave he was assigned uniformed duty at Yankee stadium until he was 100% ready to go back on the street. He was usually stationed in either bullpen. There were a lot of perks to this assignment (Mariano Rivera came to his 7 year old

Federal scientist here. The raw data we collect has to go through a time-consuming check/approval process before it’s fit for public consumption because people rely on that data for recreation/agriculture/infrastructure/construction. Our data is also collected and transmitted via telemetry, which like NASA’s, isn’t
