Embrace the dark side
  • One of them (Zoom I think) at least used to be able to pop up a request for attendees to turn on their mics. I was glad to see it required permission, and I was not glad to see the host must have clicked that request.

  • Are there any occupations you uniquely oppose the existence of?
  • Are there still places that legally mandate car refueling operators? That seemed like a job that literally only existed to give some people a job.

  • US now allows passport renewals online.
  • If you're on a ".gov" site, it's safe to expect that it is a legit site of the US government.

  • What's your radical opinion?
  • And primaries are the "real" elections to get us there. General elections will continue to be major party A vs. major party B, with a "this is the most important election ever" backdrop, while primaries are where we have to try to get our important issues (like election reform) carried by generally electable candidates to get those issues injected into the parties.

    And the amount of money spent on primaries confirms how influential they are capable of being.

  • Harris delivered a ‘masterclass’ debate. Will it change the race?
  • I'm under the impression there are more votes to lose by not appearing to stick with Israel than there are votes to lose by not attempting to intervene. At least, that's what the party appears to have assessed.

  • Texas man sentenced to 3 years in prison for kicking cat like 'a football field goal' on video
  • It's absolutely not enough time. Those are serial killers in the making.

  • Organized Left
  • I support this new saying. What's wrong with people literally fitting the original label? I think we generally appreciate those people, right?

  • Bread
  • Yeah, good point, but that article isn't talking about what's in this picture.

    Store-bought sandwich bread usually can be kept in the fridge without much change in texture. That’s because it often contains additives and preservatives that keep it fresh longer.

  • Say the line
  • ____________________________________________________ gun control ___________________.

  • When purchasing Music (£0.99 each) how many plays would you say made the purchase 'worth it'?
  • That's a big motivation for me, too, but I'd say it's about equally that I want archival of the best stuff for when rights holders pull their catalogs from the services I stream. I used to think that was mainly for the more obscure stuff, like local bands' early albums that I can barely find anymore, but recently I've noticed albums missing from main services (Tidal and Spotify, in my case) for bigger acts, too.

  • Negotiations
  • Cleveland clinic says says about coffee's laxative effect:

    Researchers found that 29% of coffee drinkers report a desire to poop after drinking coffee. The feeling can come pretty quickly, too. (In as little as four minutes!)

    And about lactose intolerance (same article):

    An estimated 65% of people have some difficulty digesting lactose, which can lead to restroom runs. Lactose intolerance can cause diarrhea and other gastrointestinal (GI) issues within 30 minutes of consumption.

  • Locked
    I'm tired, boss
  • At least they didn't write "brand's", so there's that.

  • Animal Attacks
  • I'd had this over my front door for however long it took for them to build it. My pest control service said the size of the nest can affect how aggressively defensive they might respond to perceived intruders. I guess maybe I was just lucky we caught this one before it got any more developed.

  • Welcome new Lemmings.
  • I gnu y'all would find a way to pun it up.

  • Report: Trump calls Harris a "bitch"
  • I thought it was because he’s afraid he sounds like he's saying "lion" instead of "lying", and he doesn't want to risk sounding complimentary.

  • Sound baffling at a concert venue [OC]

    This faceted structure that I think is sound baffling always catches my eye when I go to concerts there. The angles catch the stage light in different ways. I wonder how many others stare at this stuff.
