Are you kidding? He's going to the feds for an interview.

I'll be honest, I'm immediately apprehensive that they messed it up. Is it good? Quick Google search says Ito was involved so that's a relief

With the fog this sounds like some amazing zero context photos. Did you get any photos of the Cows of the Fog that you can share?

Other commenter got the title. The artist is Junji Ito, and he has a lot of works as equally creepy as this one. Uzumaki might be the most popular one

I just see advertised swings and a reason to get in close with a knife

I suppose with Cox we could be talking about TV or Internet. If it's Internet I've heard it called a duopoly. The cable TV company and phone company both had wires running to every house when the internet showed up on the scene. Typically these are the only two options available in an area, and when you zoom in further usually one of them has given up on a particular street or neighborhood, and you better just go with the one that has decent wires.

We sort of had protections in place at the phone company level for a while to stop this. ILEC and CLEC laws forced Incumbent Local Exchange Carriers (the big phone co in the area, owns the lines on the poles) to share their last mile phone lines with a Competitive LEC, granted the CLEC shells up for their own equipment and puts it in a special section of the ILECs central offices. Bam, competition.

The problem is that the laws only specified copper, so when fiber rolled around, ILECs specifically targeted their upgrades to cripple the competition. The houses still would do DSL on copper, but the backhaul for the CO would get upgraded to fiber and the competition would have to also upgrade their handoff on their equipment to be fiber or just lose all their customers in the area. They would also set up fiber fed cabinets halfway closer to your house and offer VDSL. CLECs weren't allowed in those cabinets and could only offer 1/5th the speed on regular old ADSL due to distance. There were a lot of dirty tricks...the laws that were supposed to help just let the big company absolutely batter the smaller ones once they started their fiber upgrades.

Real men aren't held back by anything! The belt restricts blood flow through the body! It's a globalist conspiracy to turn our men into women!

The only thing this pentagon chief can sink in 20 minutes is a fifth of whiskey

Make it a marathon and put on Come and See immediately after. Hours of fun all night

In our house, we would just walk out on the porch and watch the neat clouds for an hour or two.

Construction lacks materials (2385)

Hegseth has literal gang tattoos. Send him.

A few of the stans switched (back?) to a Latin alphabet at the fall of the USSR. Kazakhstan is in the process of doing the same.

It's essentially this moment, but for gamers. At least it should be.

Do you have attic access over that wall? A really long HDMI/RCA could go from behind the TV into the wall, up to attic, skip a few studs, then down to a brush faceplate behind the consoles

We missed our chance to take off our masks back during covid when they were all begging to kill themselves. Don't make the same mistake twice, let them get sick next covid. We don't need them on our side. We don't need them at all.

The trash is taking itself out imo.

The weird ass trump supporters already do that every day still like the election is still happening. It's a cult I swear. They're on the fucking overpass waving flags constantly.

I checked the map, the closest protest seems to be a government building in west palm.

These types of batteries are called wafer batteries because you just eat them

People already made nude patches. The second there's official mod support, this game is getting a permanent reputation as a porn game, I guarantee it
