If it's an organization-wide email group address that you've been added to, instead of reply-all, you can be extra chaotic by adding that group address as a BCC.

Then just say something stupid like "could you please remove me from this group" so it doesn't look like you know what you're doing.

It'll spam the entire group, AND break any filters people have set up to delete/move/mark traffic hitting their inbox from that conversation.

...never stops buffering.

Hopefully. But I'm not about to pretend I know where the positive feedback loops we've unleashed will go. Maybe the climate starts to improve a few decades after we're all gone; maybe the greenhouse effect becomes so intense that planet earth becomes molten.

Even extremophiles have their limits - we may well have set Earth on a trajectory that ends in absolute lifelessness. Hopefully not. Probably not. But we've taken the keys to the planet and drove it off a cliff... whether or not anything can be made from the wreckage remains to be seen. But not by us.

Medical here. "Huh?"

We had a good run.

Best of luck to whatever the tardigrades evolve into after a few billion years... if any of them survive the hellscape we're turning our planet into.

Don't put any object in your ass that isn't designed specifically to be in there.

If you're into that, just go to your local adult shop and buy a dildo with a wide base so it doesn't get spaghetti-noodled right past the sphincter.

Placentas always look like a fake rubber model of a placenta. I've done hundreds of c sections, and there's always something uncanny about seeing those things just hanging out in their bucket on my backtable.

Crates are just the first step:

To kill the beetles, the crates of books are being placed into tall, hermetically sealed plastic sacks from which all oxygen is removed. After six weeks in the pure nitrogen environment, the abbey hopes all the beetles will be destroyed.

but I’m pretty sure they are not OP is asking for…

"at the reader’s discretion" :D

I figure the odds of any one comment here aligning with my personal taste are pretty low; but the goal was to stick my head out of that bubble for a bit, and y'all have delivered! It's been fun checking out everyone's recommendations, even if they aren't being added to my own playlists.

Roaches never just die when we need them to. There's the possibility that the next guy won't miss though.

5-10 consecutive record breaking hot summers, each of which accompanied by headlines exclaiming that scientists knew it would be bad, but not this bad!

...also some orchestrated drama to act as an excuse to initiate martial law, also acting as the justification to initiate Trump's 3rd and 4th terms.

I've seen studies claiming that toilet seats are among the cleanest spots in a public restroom, and that slamming your bare ass cheeks down on those things is perfectly safe.

I also work in an operating room, where we routinely chop condyloma off of people's ass cheeks... albeit less commonly the cheeks than the hole, but enough times to showcase the fact that the cheeks are prone to spreading and contracting contact dependent pathogens.

Those studies are bullshit - always build that toilet-paper-bird's-nest on the public toilet seat.

 

Edit - also if you get a skin tag that seems bigger than a normal skin tag, it's probably not a skin tag. Get that shit looked at before it's the size of a fucking golf ball. You'll save yourself a lot of time, pain, money, and worry.

There is no such thing as an ethical billionaire. She may be among the least malignant of that group, but they're all cancer.

t9 keypad? Meh.

Flex t9? Shit was flawless.

There's a distinction to point out between "absolutely no business getting made" vs "the final product turned out to be shit". I can't really think of anything that belongs to the former... I haven't actually seen most of the films mentioned here so far, except the SW sequels... which turned out to be shit, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't have made SW sequels at all: they just shouldn't have made them shit.

The heck are you lot doing?!

We tried to fix it by voting in a bunch of Nazis, but then that didn't work, so we voted in some more Nazis and that didn't work either, and now we're not sure what else to try.

Until then, join me in just reveling in the headline for a while.

Part of me's right there with you; part of me fucking hates that. We keep seeing the justice system shake its fists at these fuckers, gets our hopes up that they'll be held accountable, and then they almost never actually are. It just stagnates for a while until it's left the public's attention span, then fizzles.

That isn't justice.

...fuck, my coffee habit by itself is probably responsible for a solid 0.01 *C global temperature increase.

Sorry all... I didn't know.

You don't have to say it twice...
