I’m reminded of a Haldeman interview that described having IBM make a special recording device so Nixon could tape phone calls, which had to keep being simplified because Nixon kept forgetting to use it or fucking it up (Nixon was so mechanically inept that the device was streamlined to a single “on” knob, and Nixon…

It was later discovered that he had only bought the organization so that he could hold a “Despite All My Rage I Am Still Just a Rat In a Cage Match”.

This sort of thing is why body cams are useless as long as we allow the police to be in control of the footage. If this guy wasn’t mind-bogglingly stupid we never would have known he faked it.

Bodycam footage needs to go directly to a civilian oversight board. The police can view it AFTER they submit their incident…

I’m HOH, so much that living in the hearing world is so difficult sometimes that I don’t want to get out of bed. I was mainstreamed to read lips only. No sign. Thanks parents and teachers! I was raised to please your hearing world. I am sitting here with tears streaming down my eyes right now reading some of the…

That is how it used to be. You got to check one bag for free untill a couple of years ago. Yes, I’m old and remember when flying was at least a passible experience.

SAME! Also, a chip out of the windshield, squashed bug, or bird poop was magically turned into a batwing/x-wing/tie fighter. I would “pilot” it over and around the scenery by moving my perspective.

the dog shit issue is the only issue the robovac industry needs to be addressing right now. stop the smears!

Seriously, this is the only innovation I’m waiting for. I have a roomba 880 and even though it works well, I’d throw it out today if someone could guarantee their robo-vac wouldn’t spread poop.

How’s it doing on the dog poop front? Here’s to poop spread thinly across your floor and still no one else to blame but yourself.

While I understand not using time an resources to prosecute a mentally deficient old man, who is about to die anyway, I have to imagine this is terrible for anyone who was close to the victim.
Whether or not Snuka murdered this woman, you have to feel they just ran out the clock on getting any kind of actual justice…

Did you watch the video below the gif that shows how possible it is? Makes perfect structural sense...

“Jingle bells / Batman kills / Robin got filet’d / The Batmobile / Lost its wheel / And careened into the bay / killing untold hundreds of overworked fishermen hoping to make it in Gotham the city that never sleeps and hates everyone while the Cops are corrupt and everything is on fire and awful and gritty HAY.”

That PPV was last weekend.

Well when both suicide bereavement groups and suicide prevention groups are saying “the terms we use matter” I’m going to listen to them because they actually know what they are talking about. I can’t believe you think that people are talking about terminology just in terms of “oh, how would the dead person feel about…

You’ve rather missed the point, much like Jordan did.

It’s not a favor, it’s recognition that the mechanism in place—as imperfect as it is—is the best hope we have of avoiding a calamitous presidency.

Here it is in glorious HD. Man: 1, Roo: 0.

So you’re the other GLG20?

I’m saddened by the lack of The Lost Vikings on this list.
