Senior Chief Petty Officer. Starfleet is in my blood, and I’ve spent my entire adult life in service to boldly going.
Keiko and Molly are my favorite humans, but Transporter Room 3 will always be my favorite.
Just don’t ask who what’s in the pattern buffer.
I’m learning a bit of sign language since my wife will likely be fully deaf inside 10 years, and one day we were in a food court and I saw two people arguing in ASL.
One of them started getting larger and more abrupt with their movements and the other interrupted to sign “Don’t yell at me.”
I wasn’t paying enough attention to know what they were arguing about, but it made me giggle a bit at the phrasing.
It’s “Jesus take the WHEEL” not “Jesus take the YOKE”
BiHnuch, please
Their ashes will pave the road to Gre’thor. The cowardly and the damned will tread upon them for an eternity of suffering.
m sorry to insult your coworker
Don’t be, most of them are barely more capable than apes. And that’s mildly insulting to a few ape species. With a little training, the apes would be far more capable and understanding.
This one in particular isn’t the worst, but when he’s on drugs he can be.
Most of them are racist, homophobic, transphobic, antisemitic, Islamophobic, xenophobic in general… At least nobody has been wearing the Civil War Losers Flag. Well, several of them do wear plain white cut-offs…
A coworker of mine was dangerously close to connecting some of the dots yesterday.
He started complaining about how things are getting more expensive, and how the company we work for has started buying things from overseas because even with tariffs it’s cheaper than buying American made, and then came the stunning part.
He said “They say they have to raise prices because of terrorists or some shit, but how do WE know if that’s true? How do we know there ARE any terrorists and it’s not just all bullshit made up by politicians and the news to justify raising prices so they can get rich.”
And then he took a hard right turn and added that “all those goddamn r****d democrats in congress” are to blame.
So close.
you cannot seriously be proposing that we relax fire code for rentals.
Sorry to butt-in on this exchange, but I did not see anywhere they proposed such a thing?
I’ve been homeless and I’ve gotta say, fire codes are worth the toilet paper they’re printed on when it’s getting cold out, and you’ve been through 6 days of constant rain.
I remember a friend of mine whining about how my text bubble was a different color and it “made it weird” to text because of that.
By then I was already super over the whole tribalistic iphone/android bs from people I know when it wasn’t being meme’d on, so I just told her “you can either get over it, or we can stop talking and being friends”
Wouldn’t you know it, the color of a text bubble isn’t enough to end a friendship over.
Ah, no true scottsman adult, then.
You can either join me in sitting around a small fire and discussing rc stuff, star trek, guns, and how functionally unregulated capitalism is destroying the planet, or you can keep moving.
I hope you’ll join me, I’m making breakfast. Eggs, potatoes, bacon, biscuits, and pancakes if you’re okay with some mildly overcooked spots.
linguists
Those damn linguists, always so cunning in their ways.
Me, staring at my alarm about to go off in 5 minutes after tossing and turning for an hour: “this is the single most comfortable spot in the universe and I am so sleepy now”
Fuck it I’m buying it now.
Half life 2 was my first “I can’t wait to get home and play” game, despite having played so many games from basically 97 onward.
It seems like every time it goes on sale, I am either between contracts or just not able to justify the unnecessary expense.
Now that I have more stable employment it hasn’t gone on sale.
Honestly this by itself might be enough to make me pay full price.
I wonder how long it took, considering they wrote a script to convert the original transcription into PZ usable stuff.
10/10 mod, no pattern buffer for you.
You know those metal benches with metal arches for “arm rests” a lot of cities installed about a decade ago?
A lot of them use standard size bolts and Allen keys. No security, or maybe torx if anything.
Also an adjustable crescent wrench and multi-size Allen wrench tool fit nicely inside a pocket.
A cordless impact driver and associated bits fit in a small backpack as well.
What do those tidbits of info have in common?
Well that’s up to the reader.
TO BE CLEAR, in case anyone doesn’t understand, I am advocating for people to go out and disassemble anti-homeless architecture as a fuck you to the people who put it there. Being homeless is never a choice (not counting extreme outliers). Life is already shitting on them, denying them even a bench to sleep on for the night is just evil.
Having worked in quite a few fields in the last 15 years or so, it’s the same active shooter training they give everyone. Even in stores that sell guns.
I’ll let the reader decide how fucked up it is that there’s basically a countrywide accepted “standard response”
So they’ll have to give her a job again. But then she won’t be homeless anymore.
I can confirm, having a job (or 3) does not provide a home.
you can only do that so many times before you run out of money, materials, water, or places to build
That’s someone else’s problem. Hopefully someone after they’re dead, but as long as they have their golden parachute, who cares?
As an American, what the fuck are you talking about?
Yeah I got mildly excited when I read the title, and now I’m just mildly irritated.
Good for pc players though, it’s something!
