Mothman has a hella nice butt tho

My wife has enough variety of spices that I have to read the labels every time I grab spices to add to anything

I know a dude who’s a retired doctor specializing in sports medicine (he was the team doctor for a Big 10 college football team), and he smokes like a chimney. He likes to joke that he’s the 1/10 doctors that they don’t quote on TV ads

Just a reminder, this shithead crossed state lines to dump gas on the fire of a protest

The “crossed state lines” thing really irks me because does nobody know that maps exist? I’m thinking about crossing state lines today because I need to get more baby wipes. Shithead went to the next town over, which just so happened to be in a different state.

But let’s also not forget he went and partied with KKK members immediately after posting his crowdfunded bail, just in case there’s any questions on how much of a shithead he is

My wife worked in a factory for a while that was air-conditioned but didn’t have appropriate ventilation to actually circulate the air throughout the plant so it might have simply been better to just open all of the big dock doors and let the crosswind do its thing. It would easily be 90 degrees F inside during the summer. It was nice and comfy in the offices though!

Dude that’s wild. My mother in law is kinda like that but doesn’t last that long. She usually gives up on the ignoring after about a month or two. Last year we got to do our own thing for July 4th because she got mad at us for having a scheduling conflict for an event she didn’t bother to tell us she had voluntold us to help out at. She didn’t tell us about it, and we had prepurchased Renaissance Faire tickets and a hotel near the faire

Mozart enjoyed Scatological humor and even wrote a piece with a title that translates to “lick my asshole”

This year was the first year I worked in an office that didn’t recognize Juneteenth. Someone still found a way to complain about people expecting Juneteenth off work and blamed Zoomers for it becoming the norm like it’s a bad thing

I feel that. I completed a degree that easily leads into being a sysadmin or network engineer, but my paid internship ended and I needed a job, so I snagged the best one I could get immediately, which happened to be as a cloud admin configuring a Salesforce-like SAAS product. The work doesn’t thrill me but the benefits are cushy enough and it seemed to be the best paying opportunity I had at the time (I could tell I was the top applicant for a couple of jobs I was applying to) I work close enough to IT to hear chatter about the things i actually care about and get roped into tasks that are more in line with what i want to do full time, but ultimately that’s not my job right now, so it’s just one offs that keep me thirsting for more.

But now my needs are shifting and I’m struggling to land an interview for a hybrid role in a city an hour away that I intend to move to. Seems I’m getting the most traction with state jobs (I’m currently “eligible for further consideration” on 3 of them, but have yet to get a call to interview) but I think I can swing it if it just happens to be a tight labor market right now. I’m taking my time to focus on myself as well and try to improve myself outside of work and just enjoy what life has to offer

My brother in law does strongman competitions, lifting hundreds or thousands of pounds at a time. I joked once about how I might be able to lift the bar that you put the weights onto (he said it was about 75lbs) and his response was a very positive “you have to start somewhere”

One of my neighbors has an electric one and it’s shocking comparing how quiet it is to the gasoline one that came with my house

I happen to have family members with birthdays in early March and early April, so I just remember to time it between those two dates. Y’know because just going “it’s March it’s time to cut back the weeds!” Isn’t enough

I also do a daily bike ride around sunset, and I try to do a very quick walk around the yard before/after which gives another opportunity to grab thr loppers and chop a couple of things that are growing in a bad spot

I currently only have hand powered yard tools aside from the gas powered lawnmower that came with the house. As long as you stay on top of the pruning hand tools get the job done. I discovered a 20+ foot tall tree hiding in a larger pine when I went to pull a vine off of it and still managed to chop it up with the handsaw for normal city collection. Poured some stump killer on the stumps and one full spring later (I did this at the end of winter when it was nice and cool out, and everything was still dead/hibernating) only one stump shows any signs of life out of the 4 trees I chopped down, and it might even just be a new shoot.

Is Paradox doing okay? They own several franchises I care quite deeply about so I certainly hope this is a good decision cut their losses and not deliver a dud and not cost cutting to shore up worsening finances

In a race where it’s estimated 40k people will decide the entire outcome, getting 20% of the country on your side is good numbers.

Republicans have been saying shit about eliminating income taxes for years, or even flat out eliminating the IRS. I don’t see this specific policy turning "millions"of voters like you say.

The best thing trump can do is get voters excited. Voter turnout is abysmal in this country. Whoever gets more people to actually show up to vote wins. Joe Biden was a shoe in before he hard-backed Israel and now it’s a toss-up

“The invisible hand of the free market will save us all!”

Take a look at the JOLTS data

516k job openings in April, 385k separations and 382k hires. That’s a deficit of about 100k jobs that aren’t being filled in manufacturing alone. The problem isn’t a lack of manufacturing jobs, in fact it’s the opposite. We have over a hundred thousand manufacturing jobs we can’t fill, and this matches what I hear through the grapevine at my work which does contract industrial cleaning. People don’t want those jobs, and people take advantage of the opportunities available to them to get out of those jobs. Trump would destroy the countries economy if he actually managed to implement this plan

Oh that’s good to know! Too bad my nearest target is 20 miles away and a very annoying drive over a poorly designed arterial road

Specifically accurate content that was anti-biden, but he got a temporary ban for flat out saying he was intentionally only posting anti-biden content

You can usually snag items for 75% or more off about 1-2 years after launch on Steam (and by extension all other PC game sales platforms) and it’s consistent enough that you can count on it (and I do!). I’ve never seen discounts go that deep on consoles, at least not for games I actually play.
