I often tell people “I’m doing what I can with what I got.” as both a response to compliments and requests for effort.
What I got can be a lot, but I am one person battling neurodivergence, depression, and the shredding maw of capitalism in a system hijacked by christo-fascist lunatics.
I wish the article had more details about why they’re convinced it’s a black hole and not a neutron star.
They do say it could be either (once), but then only refer to it as having turned into a black hole through the rest of the article.
Have not clicked the link for the remake yet, (I was too excited to respond to your comment) but I freaking loved Orta. It was one of the first video games that I think I ever really got into.
If I had the stomach to ever attend one, now would be a great time to start a “drain the swamp” chant at a conservative rally.
I like it. I would not go back.
But I have a nice home office, don’t live alone, and found office culture and colleagues to be disruptive.
I have ADHD. My job tends to be wide but not necessarily deep. A “quick question” can cause me to lose my train of thought, cause me to get disordered while trying to figure what the hell I was doing, get shut down by the frustration, and lose hours in ‘wait mode’ for the next interruption because it took me so long to enter a flow state that I’m fearful I’ll get interrupted again.
Being able to shut my office door, silence notifications, and focus with music playing in the background has been incredible for me.
As we saw with his first two impeachments, impeachment is not removal. So long as the cult of personality continues to support him, so too will the Republican Party.
I didn’t know who was playing nor have I cared much about either team, but this is now a Seahawks family until Kolanaki gets their pizza.
He also skipped touring the U.S. in 2025, due to concerns that his concerts / fans would be targeted by ICE.
They don’t have to argue. We pretty much all agree.
Unless they like arguing – I won’t judge.
The problem with Gavin Newsom is they could swap him with Billy Crudup doing a bit and I wouldn’t notice.
The 4 boxes of liberty: the soap box, the ballot box, the jury box and the ammo box (preferably in that order).
I have (had?) an arms length friend that is prone to making bad choices.
He aspires to be a decent guy, but struggles with making the right choices. He made some pretty bad choices last year.
Cheated on his wife with a coworker that was, er, not someone I’d trust. Got caught. Coworker then got pregnant. A few months later he called me to ask if he could crash in our guest bedroom for ‘no more than three days’ while he cut things off with the coworker and worked on reconciling with the wife. While he was still that coworker’s supervisor and baby daddy, unbeknownst to his supervisors.
Seeing nothing but red flags there, I offered to pay for a hotel room for him for a week, and he never took me up on the offer. My wife’s eyebrows were almost at the ceiling when we got off the phone. She very much appreciated not inviting that mess into our lives. I haven’t heard from him since.
The house numbers on my block always skip one.
For example, if my block number was the 10th block, on the odd side of the street, the house numbers are 101, 105, 109, 1013, 1017. And on the even side, they’re 100, 104, 108, 1012, 1016. (Sub dividing houses is common here, maybe they wanted extra addressing space?)
Sometime last year, I caught an Amazon driver stalking through the back yard, as he tried to find one of those in-between addresses. Sadly he didn’t just leave the boxes at the map pin.
Unimpressed. It’s not 7:20.
All that engineering and they didn’t get the time right.
I made a joke recently that if I were desperate for a job I’d get hired as ICE and quit right after training. But then I realized I might spend more time filling out some of the application, failing the drug test, and attending a 6-minute long interview than I would spend in training before they tried to make me do evil shit. I’d have to quit before I got my ROI.
It does seem the gun was not in his possession when he was shot: https://imgur.com/a/ice-taking-victims-holstered-gun-before-shooting-started-NtnH5Hv
Wow. So they have the struggling man on the ground and two men approach from the left of frame. What’s shown below is not graphic, but it is screenshots from the video.
Edit: Leaving it up, but my initial analysis was incorrect. Pink jacket video is now available. First shooter was different. Man that walks off frame toward camera in this video is the one that recovered the gun. Has it in his hands as he is walking away. Link to new video.
At 17 seconds in, several of the officers have stepped back a bit, one of the late arrivals has turned to leave, and so the guy on the ground no longer has bodies and activity all over him.
The man in the green hood takes a step back, and draws his weapon.
About two seconds later, the man in the green hood takes a firing pose and a shot is heard.
All of the thugs who were attacking the unseen figure step away and reach off their weapons.
A second or two passes. The figure on the ground does not seem to move.
One of the last men to step clear (black beanie) takes several shots
In the video, the two men who arrived late (including the man who opened fire first), are seen leaving the frame quickly.
Without wanting to brew conspiracies, as I know ICE is pretty ragtag. Is that weird? Their cop cosplay outfits don’t quite match the others.
You don’t even have to reference an article from a year ands half ago.
He literally suggested last week that he would cancel the midterms.
My circulation is terrible. I’ll have cold feet and hands while my core is too hot. Sometimes I will move the blanket so it’s over my feet and arms but my body is just under sheets. I need a blanket that is like a reverse vest.
