She did say she was tightening these penalties grudgingly, which I’m sure is a great relief for everyone affected by the new rules.

So, quick question: what exactly does he need a ballroom for? It’s not like he’s any good at dancing, even though he is somewhat famous for his double-handed cock milker move.

What’s more, he doesn’t have any balls, either. Certainly not the kind that would require a dedicated room.

I really don’t get these brain farts of his. But hey, I’m not the one with syphilis-induced dementia here.

God, I can’t wait until you guys finally muster the courage to oust this wannabe dictator and his clique.

Robes for frogs, apparently.

Unfortunately, the “people” benefiting most from less state “oppression” are corporations.

The rest of the people are still being plenty oppressed e.g. by masked goons claiming to work for the government. Shutdown or no shutdown.

Meanwhile, the government is literally letting people starve for political reasons.

As for the planes, I agree.

There’s always Inn Keeper, which just got out of Early Access.

True, true. But also

The husband’s delay in calling in might also have been caused by Verizon’s telephone network being temporarily overloaded. I remember trying to call my family that morning and only getting a message saying “all circuits are busy now”.

Oh, right the protests against nuclear rearmament in Europe. I was actually part of the “human chain” demo, somewhere between Ulm and Neu-Ulm. Together with my teddy, which got us photographed for the regional newspaper.

That’s what I was thinking as well but I looked it up and the Challenger explosion was shortly before that.

1986 was a strong news year for sure. I was 9 years old at the time.

edit: actually, it was the Pershing II protests of 1983, which my family joined.

Looking to finish Ball x Pit. It’s been a lot of fun.

O-kay. I can think of a myriad of other reasons than sheer cost why I might not want to buy a home straight away. But I see how the graphic kind of makes sense in the way you describe.

I’m not a big fan of landlords, by the way, and the instant downvoting for asking a simple question is extremely rude. Doesn’t exactly foster community engagement, guys! 😑

Not sure what the graphic is trying to say. Are landlords supposed to protect people from increasing costs of home ownership? 🤔 How are these ideas connected?

Mind you, ownership implies that you are not renting your home, you own it.

Great illustration of the issue underlying flat-earthism. 👍

So what do you propose instead?

Holy shnikes, what a stoike!

Thanks for the warning.

From memory, it felt like the electrostatic discharge that used to happen whenever I was touching my car. Annoying but harmless. The CRT part was speculation as I was reaching around blindly and don’t ultimately know which exposed contact shocked me.

Interestingly, the PC suffered no damage at all and didn’t blow its internal fuse, either.

Windows 10 EOL is a problem for future me, having just signed up for free extended support.

And I’ve got CachyOS in my back pocket. Initial experiments have been somewhat positive.

Yeah, that’s why I’m not a burgers person. Never really got the appeal.

To me it actually conveys what I was thinking, namely “ex cuse me?”

Like the Italian hand gesture, you know.
