Not to mention colleges didn’t admit women in the “early 1800s” in the US. There was no such thing. Oberlin started admitting women in the 1830s, and only a tiny number of private schools followed their example for decades. Vassar wasn’t even founded until the 1860s, and Wellesley, Smith, etc. didn’t come into…

This quartet should have stayed a trilogy.

I’ve never heard of this and I was in middle and high school in the early 2000's in the Midwest.

I have way too much weird, rare stuff in mp3 form to ever switch fully to streaming. I have no interest in Amazon or whoever being like, “oh, that wasn’t in our catalogue, it’s gone now.”

Oh, you too? We changed our garage bulbs to LEDs and suddenly our remotes barely work (yes, we tried changing the batteries). The change happened overnight when we put LEDs in the garage door openers. I thought I was crazy noticing a correlation. It will only work if the nose of the car is an inch or two past the door…

It seemed pretty obvious from the storytelling beats that the orc cop should have been the Bright, not Will Smith’s character. But that’s not the direction they went and that made it pretty forgettable.

This is us. Startup was kind of expensive but now we’re a few years in and we basically grow the expensive stuff and things we use a lot of. Tomatoes, herbs, zucchini, squash, radishes, plus some specialty varieties of basics like carrots and onions.

Apparently I’m the only person on the internet tonight who saw the shirt and immediately thought it looked like it came from a Spirit Halloween “sexy whatever” costume.

I remember when I was a kid first edition holo Machamps were considered trash tier because everyone already had two or three- everybody’s parents/grandparents/friends got them the Starter Deck for Christmas and birthdays. You couldn’t give them away trading.

Also very worth knowing: Plan B has a “weight limit.” It’s safe to take at any weight but is less effective if you are over 155 lbs. (and progressively less effective the further over 155 lbs. you are.)

Now have the deepfake tell them something they really really really already want to believe. Yes. These will do damage.

To clarify, I lost my sense of smell temporarily as a result of sinus surgery, not covid.

I went about six months this year without a sense of smell and with greatly diminished sense of taste (“sugar” and “salt” were the only things I could taste, and those at a diminished rate) and it was awful. As a youngish, healthy, vaccinated person, the thing that scares me most about hypothetically getting covid is…

So... are we going to see an announcement at the end of this season like, “Star Trek Discovery season four will be the final season after a sharp decline in viewership?” They think they can force a bunch of people to sign up for their streaming service by pulling this two days before the new season drops, but I’m not…

More notably: “Charges of rape, indecent sexual assault and unlawful contact with a minor were withdrawn by prosecutors.” I’m interest to know why they dropped the rape charge. All things considered this is quite the plea deal they struck.

The part I tripped over is that he was allowed to plead to “statutory sexual assault.” Then I read the article and it made more sense. “Garner also pleaded guilty plea to charges of corruption of minors and selling obscene materials and indecent assault on a child less than 16 years old.”

We’re a Series X household and... yep. We have two consoles and have only bothered to upgrade to Series X with one of them right now. I’m fiddling with my third build in Cyberpunk (and still waiting on the upgrade!) and playing Minecraft. Since Destiny 2 went so ridiculously a la carte with what’s included in DLCs vs.…

Per multiple doctors, my caloric needs as a woman between 30 and 35, 5'10”, do not exceed 1,500 or 1,600 calories a day. 1,200 is barely dieting, by that metric. On 2,400 a day my weight would be galloping upward. I can easily maintain a steady weight (overweight) for weeks or months on 1,300 calories a day. I’ve done…

Yes, horse hair in the walls! Parts of the house I grew up in had it too. It was mixed into the plaster to give it structure.

We were last in Japan in 2019. We’re wondering what will be left open in terms of shops, restaurants, etc. by the time we’re next able to go back. Per Reuters Japan’s vaccination rate is rapidly improving after their late start, so hopefully it won’t be too long...
