…okay.
Maybe… don’t draw attention to it. Let this one slide. Give him a win. Let’s not make fun of him for doing a good thing, even if it’s for a silly reason. Hell, if it ends the Russia/Ukraine war with no loss of land for Ukraine (I would argue, best case scenario), and they want to give him a Nobel Peace Prize, let him have it. Remember, Kissinger got one, it’s not like it’s meant anything for a loooooong time.
Take what you can get.
People keep talking about crime, but I tend to hold off on even putting up decorations until a week or less before the holiday because where I live the weather will destroy or launch your decorations, and the storms often come at night with no warning.
So my immediate thought was, he wants to preserve those decorations. It’s something I would do if I didn’t just accept I’d be replacing a third to a half of my decorations every year because I can’t be assed to take them down for storms.
No, like, for some of us no pic shows up whatsoever.
Was it from carrying /c/tenforward while The_Picard_Maneuver was on sabbatical?
I don’t know about this mid-October one, but for the Satanic Temple there is Lupercalia on February 15th, which is “hail yourself” day, so pretty much Treat-yo-self day. The two days prior are for feasting.
My wife and I take those three days and each of us takes one day to treat ourselves while the other watches the kids and handles things. And the third day of the three ends up being feasting (where we order out from each person’s favorite restaurant and have a feast of everything).
For parents, I highly recommend it.

I’m waiting for somebody to be looking at their phone, smile, and look around. It hasn’t happened yet, but I chuckle at somebody getting it some day.
As the show went on, I ketp thinking that it was so good, and the end was going to ruin it. That it had to have an end, and there’s no way it could be satisfying.
And then it was perfect, and I loved it, and I watched the whole series over again.
My friend has a zoology degree, spent time as an officer in the military, and runs a successful business building training systems.
She’s super stoked to be fullfilling one of her biggest dreams, going on an Antarctic expedition.
As a janitor.
I would absolutely react more to my child getting killed than literally anyone else on the planet, what are you on about?
Though in fairness, if I had powers, I don’t think it would be a pursuit of justice or launch me on some path of heroism. Somebody would just die badly (assuming the initial killing was either deliberate or through willful neglect).
Should be visor-type sunglasses. Kind of makes the look. You know, one lense going from…

If you’re not using one of these, you might be cracking eggs wrong.
I recently lived in military housing (where all the units were quadplexes with basically the same layout in each unit), and I can imagine somebody getting drunk and passing out at a neighbor’s house, waking up, and wandering upstairs to exactly this situation.
I remember a comic where one character says “Why are there so many monsters in this dungeon?!”
The other says “because they live here.”
And the first character says “oh. …ooooooohhhh…”
My daughter’s class (6th grade) is reading Hunger Games. I feel like that’s a great way to get kids into it.
It’s a silly distinction. If you are “going to college/university,” you could be going for any number of degree programs, from a Bachelor’s Degree, to an Associates Degree, to a Master’s Degree, or whatever. The degree program is irrelevant. If you are going to school, and it is a college or university, you are going to college/university.
Any response to “ive been thinking”
I usually quickly respond “you okay?” in a concerned tone.
Yes and no.
I have never had a lust for power. I have never had a desire to do things that people in power abuse their position to do (like nightmare islands, sex with interns, crushing minorities). I don’t even have an intense desire for money beyond basic comfort (I would love to have money for a boat right now, but I’m content saving up for it). So corruption for any of that? No.
However, I am not sure I have the capability of doing good in a proper way. I can’t tell if I’d be a Sisko or if I would just fail to achieve any of my aims out of not wanting to do things the wrong way (if you go authoritarian to try to make things better, is that still corrupt or evil?). The world is a fucked up, difficult to navigate place, morally, when you are making decisions for a lot of people.
So yeah, I could avoid corruption for my own sake, but I don’t think I would be able to be a benevolent dictator.

Also, whenever my wife and I are really sleepy during the day, one of us will pull out "People let me tell you 'bout my NEW BEST FRIEND! Barnaby Jones…
