As someone who grew up on a farm and was asked at various times to put my hands into the farm equipment, or in the case of the hay baler, to go ahead and climb right in, all because: if it fits it sits, or if it fits it works its tiny grubby mitts off, I can absolutely confirm the need to have lots of children because…

Gah.
Can you imagine?
That would. creep. me. out.
-
Me (I tend to blather a bit): Blah, blah, blah de blah.
Her: STARING WITH ADORATION.
Me: Blah, blah, uh. Um.—
Her: STARING WITH ADORATION.
Me: I’m just, how about I go over here? For a while? A long while?

Now this headline?
THAT is how you do a trigger warning.
Thank you.
Really.
I am an emotional softie, and if I’d had more warnings like this growing up, I wouldn’t have to see some things inside my head that I wish I didn’t have there, like these people, who I now know not to bother my memories or experiences with beyond…

Yes, other human, I, another human, agree!

Lots of calling BS in the comments, and yeah, has an undeniable Muskiness to it.
Also really reminded me of when Microsoft has some really creepy, I mean, REALLY CREEPY demo for the Kinect where you got to raise your own child, and the demo was all bubble gum and duct tape behind the scenes. The unholy scenes.
Anyway,…

Um. Hello? Moped on the freeway? No wrongdoing? Are you insane?

Nice.
Part of NYC’s new Stop, Frisk, and Play policy.

“Heartbreaking.”
I don’t know what’s wrong with me, but I get all weepy every time one of these projects blows up on the pad, or right after, or crashes, or whatever.
So, so many people worked on each one, I dunno— I also absolutely love it when the rovers on Mars do their thing, and that little helicopter?
OMG.
I know, I…

“—Will Still Launch Her Into Space—” made me laugh so much.
I mean, I know space travel is getting safer, but still. If my sweetie were like, “And I got you a trip on a rocket ship!” I think I’d say, “You do like me, right?”

Hee, and there’s also all of the young people who do tech support for Grandma and Grandpa who will be getting that call:
“Could you come over and install that Twitter so that I can see Tucker?”

Y’all might be joking, but I was reading the comments on Bratbart, and sure enough, lots of people were saying variations on your comments:
“I’m not on social media, but I’ll get Twitter for Tucker!” and “So, is Twitter on my phone or on my computer?”
-
No, my darlings, look up your ass.

Right, RVs can have all of those things, in official RV lots, but this isn’t that, this is people desperate to live near where they work, but they’ve been price out.
In Arizona right now, they’re building ‘tiny’ houses near the schools where they want teachers to teach, because they’re admitting that the salaries they…

Dang, of course, thank you.

Oh, man, trust me, I have mowed, and paid my dues to the mowing gods.
Having grown up with lots of yards, the standard way for me to make any folding money was to mow the lawns of my grandmother and great-grandmother, and like you, I was savaged by mowers in various ways over the years, but the worst pains came from…

Hee. Me? My yard should be rocks, or whatever local fauna existed to support native bees and wasps and bugs and birds, but as I rent, it’s maintained by other people, and yeah, lawns are ridiculous.

I hear you, but alas, these aren’t the same as houses, as they have no electrical hookups, no sewer and water easily accessible, no internet, garbage, recycling, curbs, lawns, indeed, most everything that many people enjoy in their homes.

While mobile homes are great for vacations, and can be, perhaps, for some, a home…

Fox News, Tucker Carlson, and his ilk, and sites and services and channels like them, have lied, blatantly lied, about the level of danger, about the level of menace, about the motives, about the reality, about the OTHER.
Anyone who isn’t a cisgender white male is considered a threat, and not just a threat, but a…

Damn, but this is terrifying.
There were, I think? laws about robotic war machines?
I know this machine is controlled by a human, with a human’s decision on the fire for effect, kill, self destruct, whatever, but how long before that decision is handed off to an AI, or rather, a stochastic parrot that uses auto complete…

Virginia, in particular, has some incredible protections for the “Commonwealth,” and those protections make suing the state and its institutions incredibly difficult. As others in this comment section have stated, the administration’s positions is nuts, and I hope she gets double what she asked. Instead of suing…

“All the Pretty Horses”
What about that?
I mean, in your list of movies?
Heck, they tried in 2000 and they just took another whack at it in 2020.
