You’re tight. I was referring to how even sparkling water is bad for you.

Goddamnit. Why is it that everything enjoyable is bad for you? 😡

Thank you!

Sebastián, I have one very pressing question. Are jaguar soft?

FTFH.

Pro tip: don’t waste people’s time by forcing them to respond before you ask your question. Be polite and pleasant, AND ask your question at the same time. It saves both them and you a lot of time.

God

That has as much likelihood of existing (and caring) about as much as there being a next (fair) election.

Sure. But also make their existence as miserable and difficult as possible.

Yes, you are right that we all should have been up in arms sooner, but we weren’t. It sucks. And here we are now, fighting the same fight; can we all agree who the real enemy is and focus on that for the moment?

Look, yes. She’s a piece of shit. But she’s not wrong here. And honestly, we need people (even batshit crazy racists) calling out the stupid shit Trump and co are doing.

Do not conflate agreement with acceptance. We need all the help we can get right now. Worry about washing your hands later. Too many good people are dying to stay on that high horse.

What is it you would like us to say?

I know! Now I’m dead! 🤣

Van Gough had one ear, so he’s missing one audio cable. Beethoven was dead deaf, so he is missing both audio cables. Wanda was in love with the character Vision, and he died, so no video cable for her.

Edit: typo 🤣

I got asked this question once, and I answered: either working here or going back to school. I graduated with my masters in 2024. But I appreciated that they got me thinking of my future realistically.

If I were to ever be asked this again, I would go more abstract: so many things change on a day-to-day basis, that trying to realistically map out years at a time is not practical, but what I can say is that I am eager to learn, and I love exploring new opportunities for growth.

They probably wouldn’t like that answer either, but at least it’d be honest and not fluff.

I am pleasantly surprised at that excerpt.

Translation: drinking straight from a bottle of Jack Daniels, and chasing it with coke (not the soft drink).

It’s been a hot minute, but wasn’t what you’re referring to done by a third-party app? The original consoles had no real concept of a mouse by default, let alone copy/paste from highlighted text. Any highlighting inside an app (e.g. vi/m) was buffered by the app and not the OS?

Old really is how you feel. I feel old now (48, going on 49), but only because of how my life turned out and certain events that I have to deal with (divorce, single fatherhood, getting colonoscopies, etc) by myself. I certainly don’t have as much fun as I used to, and that definitely plays a huge part in feeling old.

All that to say that if your dad is having fun, “not acting his age”, then good for him! I hope he gets many more years of that before shit has to get serious.

To directly answer your question: a 36-old is supposed to act however they want to (within moral reason of course), so long as they and the people around them are enjoying it.

Please stop acting high and mighty for shit you know nothing about. The military is not some at-will job you can just up and quit. It doesn’t work that way.

Please don’t be so ignorant. It’s never that black and white. And if you are dishonorably discharged, nothing they say will make that stigma go away.

High horses don’t matter when the bill collectors and repo men come knocking.

People joining today, maybe. But there are people who joined before this stupid shit went down. And they probably joined as a last resort because they felt they had no other choice. That happens. Not everyone is blessed with options.

Dishonorable discharge and/or military prison is pretty impossible to come back from in a socioeconomic sense. These people have entire families relying in them. It’s either follow orders, or ruin their family. And if you can sit there and wave that off, you lived a charmed life in comparison.
