So we’re winning? I’d still love for him to meet his Luigi. Is that enough hate to get you to quit before you do any more damage? I can go more extreme if it isn’t.

I bet you didn’t casually leave it in your unattended bag. I paid $5k cash for a car once and planned that payment out carefully to minimize the time I had the money in hand.

Who goes out with $3k cash? Even if you are so wealthy that the quantity is like $20 for normal people, that’s enough to make you a target if someone discovers you have it.

The pope told him he was an aristocrat, not a real mountain man from West Virginia and this truth caused JD to mistake the pope for a couch.

My surgically repaired ankle starts to hurt when the barometric pressure drops which is a harbinger of thunderstorms here. The more severe the pain the more severe the weather.

It has done this since I was in my late 20s, so yeah I sound like an old man, but it was true even when I was young. Took me a few years to work out the connection between the ankle pain and the weather.

It is hurting a decent amount today and storms are predicted for the whole weekend here in north Texas.

Would be hilarious if they discovered the rising rates were due to microplastics in the environment. Deregulation will surely fix that…

Sure you’re broke, tariffs are wrecking the global economy, climate change is going to kill at least 5 billion people, etc, etc, but it is is all worth it because that one trans kid in Pennsylorida can’t play badminton and will probably commit suicide and you can proudly wear your kkk gear in public again.

Maybe doge will do something funny like cut existing farm subsidies.

When do they meet with the prosecutor?

As a male Gen-X with short hair my whole life I am only dimly aware of what my female compatriots were up to with these. I admired the results for sure.

Yeah that sounds awful. Fortunately corporate policies prohibit putting our technical data into AIs.

Scrum is just something I have to endure in order to get paid to program. The worst is when you’re working on something hard and your status hasn’t changed substantially from the previous day. “I did a bunch of things that didn’t pan out, so I only really have an expanding list of things that are not the problem. No, assigning someone to help me is unlikely to resolve the issue faster.”

Discovery: we’re going to need you to step on this scale and submit to an accurate barefooted height measurement. The requested information is relevant because it proves that you really are as fat as portrayed.

A special kind of genius that can bankrupt a casino multiple times. How do you fuck up a license to print money?

It was written by multiple MIT professors sponsored by an organization called The Club of Rome. I remember that there were two authors named Meadows. Subsequent updates were by additional people. It has a lot of mathematical models with different parameter assumptions. The 30 year update was by Green, I think.

You sound like you would enjoy the book, The Limits to Growth and its progress checking updates. The models suggest we’re in for a very bad time by 2040. The runup seems to have already begun. The neat thing is that the book doesn’t even include climate related catastrophe. They’re just bonus add on.

More like retailers won’t eat any of it and will take the opportunity to raise prices even more because they know consumers are expecting higher prices and they have pressure to retain or increase their margins to meet shareholder expectations.

I think they necessarily will. I can’t imagine retailers eating the lost margin.

As someone who works for a defense contractor, I like to tell people chemtrails are real just to sow chaos. To add credibility, I refer people to an early test version:

Down 4% today so far. Retirement fantasies evaporating. Probably good news for 20 somethings, they can buy more and if they survive the climate change famines, water wars, genocides, and non-renewable resource shortages, those shares will probably be worth a lot.

Betteridge’s law applies. The answer to a yes-no headline question is always no.
