holy shit. i just looked it up. she was born in 93. wtf

that’s just the $5 kites with more steps

what percentage of my body needs to be microplastics to be considered artificial? because we all might be AI

and it’s going to hurt rural areas the most. some of them could lose up to 50% their revenue overnight, which will almost certainly lead to them shutting down. and then what happens next time there’s some disaster that knocks out the internet and there aren’t any local radio stations left to inform the people when and where to take shelter?

you might not mind too much if you lived in a time when women didn’t have their own bank accounts or source of income not controlled by their husbands. it was actually a decent rule when it was the only thing of real value you truly owned and could sell if you needed to gtfo of an abusive relationship or give you a bit of breathing room if you were widowed suddenly (and your husband’s family decided not to take care of you once he was gone).

but yes, now a days is definitely overkill.

Mississippi is the only state that doesn’t specifically prohibit drinking and driving (as long as you stay below the 0.08% BAC)

aren’t they also going to let ACA subsidies lapse, too? So, the total unnecessary deaths will certainly be higher…

yes

The spirit is willing, but the flesh is bruised and spongy.

Or because it’s not immediately recognizable as writing. I wonder how long it would have taken archeologists to figure out the quipu was actually a knot-based writing system without the Spanish mentioning their use by the Incas in their records of the invasion.

It’s never too late; you’re one of today’s lucky 10,000!

my boyfriend and my mom both have that. makes for some fun dinners, since my dad is a super loud eater (tbh, even i get annoyed by my dad eating, lol). luckily, my mom trained me up in the ways of polite eating from like day one, so no friction on my behalf!

and they never have exactly what you need either. the number of times i’ve come home empty handed and had to buy online anyway is rediculous

I have a problem where everything that I want to buy has been discontinued years ago, so my days of research end up being all for naught by the time I’m ready to pull the trigger. I really need to start reading the publish dates on web pages…

As someone who both knits and crochets, I’ve stopped being bothered by people who confuse the two. I just don’t have enough fucks to give anymore, and I can see how one who isn’t familiar might confuse the two… But I draw the line at confusing crochet with cross stitch. Thank you for your pedantry.

Some cities in my state started using RCV for local elections. Then, almost immediately, the state legislature made an amendment to our constitution banning any voting system other than FPTP…

One time when I was a little kid, my sister and i saw a huge spider crawling along on the floor very slowly. We screamed, and our dad came in and stepped on it. Thousands of billions of little baby spiders came pouring out. It was horrifying. And that’s (one of the many) reasons why I don’t kill spiders. If necessary, I will relocate them outside by trapping them with an upside down cup and sliding a coaster underneath to ensure secure transport (unless they jump, then I make my partner do it, lol).

herbs are just weeds that taste and/or smell good.

Mine always stays intact. Until i let literally anyone borrow it. The worst is when you get it back and instead of being totally snapped off, it’s just bent up to a 90⁰ angle, and then you have to snap it off yourself because you can never get it to lie flat again after that. That’s why I would always keep a spare with the clip already fucked up in my bag when someone inevitably asked to borrow a pencil.

He can’t pardon a disbarment, though!
