Lego just keeps making cool sets that I can’t justify paying the premium for.

…you can get the gay from balloons now??? I thought they just temporarily made my voice all squeaky.

No one expects the 6-7 imposition!

And remaster DS9/Voyager/Enterprise while they’re at it.

Feels like half of the stuff I grew up listening to was made by terrible people. And then others who seemed chill turned around and said stupid shit when they got older.

No, that’s the square root of negative one.

As long as Mississippi still exists they both have some work to do.

I’m in an area that would benefit greatly from permanent DST. But permanent DST absolutely hoses those in the western parts of time zones in the winter.

This did not go where I thought it would.

Jellico sucks

Oh, we’re developing alright. It’s cancer.

Raul Julia. And since we’re working miracles, I’m also taking away his cancer and all of the complications that followed to let the one more movie be post-Street Fighter.

I was about to ask if you were also uploading as Shorts as well, but a few stray neurons fired and I realized I could just check your channel. Yes, yes you are. 👍

Finally, something my nephew will actually engage with

Someone still needs to say it publicly. You could have half the people in the deployment feeling that what they’re doing is wrong, but it’s not really an environment that encourages open discussion, let alone questioning orders. The person you speak to in confidence may share your feeling. Or they could be a closet murder hobo excited at the chance to hunt people for real. Is it worth finding out when you have bills to pay? A family to feed (and protect from harassment)?

Public dissent lets people know that they’re not alone. And hopefully outs the murder hobos when they go into an impotent rage.

Every act of resistance is important.

I didn’t have enough reliable data to make an informed decision so I kept my mouth shut.

I still don’t believe I have enough reliable data. Which is kinda the point with stuff like this, isn’t it? The disinformation wars are ongoing and unceasing.

If it’s good enough for COBOL…

As someone who grew up with a 20-some inch CRT in a console format (think TV-as-furniture that sits on the floor and not a TV that sits on furniture), and then eventually got a 19" hand me down for bedroom use… yeah, the commonality of enormous flat panels still makes me shake my head in wonder sometimes.

That said, when my parents’ 27" CRT died about 10 years ago, we gave them our old 55" plasma. It was hilariously oversized for the space. But it was free (to them) and we made it work.
