so true. they are so deadly that even less than 1 potato can wipe out the population of Ireland

neat question in that thread about cost; something like ‘does this cost like a few cents per question?’

i now need to know this

well - when my son was born, i bought the album “Until the Light of Morning” by Essie Jain. it’s a truly lovely album, and in my opinion wonderful to drift off to.

i haven’t listened to it in years. my son is in grade 9 now, and if was to put this on, he would roll his eyes. i know we ALL rolled our eyes at everything at that age, and i also know that deep down he loves this album too! :)

i am genuinely unsurprised that more money is being spent on car infrastructure. our government here is basically run by the big corporations. (no matter which party is in charge)

and you can’t spell “pedophile tantrums” without “President Donald John Trump”

truly a shame that more corporations aren’t willing to stand up against the people who are trying to overthrow democracy

cats. those things are the jerks of the animal kingdom! i love the two that i have, but they are such deliberate assholes

howl constantly until you open the door for them, then they just walk away. they didn’t actually want to go in… they simply wanted the OPTION of going in.

10/10. would eat.

the implications here are intense!

for example : is this perhaps the embryonic stage of Project 2025?

we need to be having a good hard think about who was involved here, and who they were connected with…

“only the best people”

is that the excuse they’re giving?

“no see - we’re not ACTUALLY gay dudes. we are super straight. what we do is have sex with men so we can question their race when they are at their most vulnerable to us manly men with giant juicy cocks”

i am feeling my cheeks flush after having written that

and what is it that YOU are doing about it?

well - considering the “assassination attempt” on Trump, and how anyone speaking against the regime is a “domestic terrorist,” my money is on the idea that very soon there will be some ICE agents that have an encounter with “ANTIFA thugs,” and this is where martial law will be declared.

Trump is insane right now, and he is big mad that he’s not getting his way in Switzerland; he’s getting bullied right back, and he’s starting to see that people are laughing at him.

lately i have been working on building a Raspberry Pi cluster, but i have been stuck trying to 3D print that doesn’t come out correctly, so i have Apr the last week working on calibration and printing a bunch of useless crap!

you have any hobbies?

this is how corporations will conquer desert planets

“regulators argued the law cuts into credit card companies’ profit margins” this is 100% correct

“forcing lenders to be more selective in extending credit to borrowers” which is 100% untrue. this is like saying ‘we are not making as much money, so we are gonna reduce how much money we make even further’

i am certain that in order to satisfy the C-Suite’s need for bonuses, and to also satisfy the ever greedy shareholders’ need for increased profit, they will actually start being LESS choosy about who “qualifies” for a credit card, and start handing out more of them.

who knows - maybe it would also have an impact on the mortgage scene, and people who have been paying rent on time for over a decade would finally qualify for a mortgage that is less than their rent payment…

can’t make those billions of dollars if you have ethics!

do you mean that the cat is going crazy for MY elbows? or they are going crazy for their OWN elbows?

well - Wikipedia seems to disagree, and says “common definitions include “the utterance of words or sounds in tuneful succession””

and that was just the first place i looked.

but humming counts as singing, doesn’t it? which means that you COULD sing without vowels
