Sooooo....what are expecting Charles to colonize?

I went to Europe with a group in May and several people went this route. The actual eSIM activation process was super simple (I don’t know if it was a QR code, but even if it wasn’t it was something just as easy) and though some of them had issues it wasn’t because it was an eSIM.

On Reddit someone mentioned how much easier it was in Japan and Thailand and it sounds amazing.  When we got off 18 hours of flights to Thailand, tired and ready to be scammed, the last thing I wanted to do was figure out what SIM card and plan I needed.

Scotland may finally pull the trigger on independence, and Northern Ireland is teetering. Wales appears to be staying put, though, so I guess the U part of UK could still have a use, should the two other members of the U leave. A union with fewer members is a union nonetheless.

She meant a lot of different things to a lot of different people, as figureheads often do. Some of my friends are mourning, others are celebrating.

Yeah, I’m sure it has nothing to do with the fact that she’s 96 friggen years old or anything.  That’s a pretty good run for anybody.

Maybe they get a seminar on their retirement benefits delivered by HR given these relationships are probably transactional.

This is an interesting point that hadn’t really occurred to me. Even if the data shows some spikes in productivity using WFH during lockdowns it doesn’t really mean this is a sustainable trend. People were also saving at record levels during the Pandemic, but we’ve essentially lost all of those gains since then.…

It’s possible to conclude this is a nunya situation and just move on. I’m not Chris Rock, I’m not Will Smith, I’m not Jada. Why does this need to occupy space in our lives?

Maybe the real problem here is that everyone wants to monetize their hot take. Maybe that’s why we get all of this dirt and sides-taking and…

Fellow Canadian here. I understood the sentence, but thought it was poorly written. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This! She has a long history of crazy behavior before she reinvented herself as Mother Teresa. He has a long history of being on drugs.

She pre-emptively grabbed him by the neck. She might have had every reason to in the moment but a DA/The FBI scraping together enough evidence to move forward with an indictment based on that story alone ... pretty tough.

Some one said this in another thread, but it bears repeating:

You used “attractive” when describing them:

I agree that Coke Zero is superior to Diet Coke, but the answer is always going to be out of the fountain.

How much did Kris pay you for this?

Yikes!  That seems an odd way to do it.  I guess separation of church and state isn’t quite as embedded as it is here with Democrats and the Constitution (though not, apparently, Republicans).  Good thing to know, thanks.

Focus does need to be kept on getting the job done, regarding Trump, but it also has to be maintained on Trump 2.0, the Destroyer of Gay Disney, coming up. Now less orange and more Florida-y.

sounds like something that would happen in my neighborhood in Maryland (AKA “Trumpistan”) where the locals breathlessly gossip in the local Patch every time someone’s home is broken into (I assume by the homeowner’s drug-seeking relative but it’s usually reported as an “urban youth” or some other dog whistle).  You…
