“Mistake”

“Whoopsie daisy, I forgot to add 1 of the 2 candidates to the voting system, I’m such a silly goose”

I live right next to one of the largest airports in the world.

I see 5-10 parallel lines in the sky multiple times a day.

I also live next to one of the largest airports in the world, which is a few miles from a national guard base located right outside one of the largest cities in America.

I’m probably in the fireball radius of a nuke, assuming the Russians haven’t been embezzling their government money and are still fueling their hydrogen bombs, so if the big red button gets pushed, I’ll just get vaporized about half an hour later.

Don’t shoot yourself just because you see lines in the sky. You’re either close enough to civilization for planes to make lines in the sky, in which case the bombs will probably get you anyway, or you’re so far out in the sticks that you’ll have plenty of time to make a decision.

MIRVs have been a thing for like 50 years.

The US even took them out of submarine launched missiles, because they made the soviets so nervous we had to promise that we couldn’t delete half of their country in 15 minutes.

But don’t worry, nuclear war happens so fast, and diplomatic channels are so slow, if anyone launches anything, everyone is practically forced to launch everything or risk losing it. So even if Russia did just launch one to destroy 10-15 cities, all of the cities everywhere would be destroyed anyway.

Some of y’all aren’t training your dogs on food aggression and anxiety and it shows.

Play with your dog’s food while it eats, don’t take it away, but move the bowl around and stick your fingers in the food. Get them used to you fucking with their food, and show them that nothing bad happens when their food gets touched. Especially if you have little kids or have little kids that come to your home with friends and family, your dog should be trained not to get anxious or aggressive about food. I’ve seen a lot of kids get scared by dogs because the dog is very defensive about food, but 5 minutes of training a day will knock that right out of them.

He is a man of commitment and sheer fucking will, after all.

I just thought it was flavored with rain water and depression

Have you seen the average griefer or troll in any multiplayer game?

If you’re measuring how quickly they can burn through cash, then they are remarkably efficient at that.

Giving the man who runs every company he touches into the ground a spot on a government efficiency agency is peak conservative governance.

I distinctly remember that being a selling point of his first campaign.

He was advertised as a Washington outsider, who had no connections and would drain the swamp.

I work at a college.

Our facilities department went from being under staffed with 10 employees, to having only 3 because everyone retired.

I’m in the trades, so I thought about applying for part time with them as a way to get some extra cash. But even though I am qualified to train people in my trade, I am apparently unqualified to do the work they want. The only listings that have are for people with 15 years experience and engineering degrees.

To primarily change air filters, light fixtures, and swap electric motors.

A summary is useless if it’s not accurate.

What terrifies me is the number of elevators I’ve been in that haven’t been inspected since the pandemic started.

Elevator cables are a consumable, they wear down faster than one would think. And while elevators are fairly safe machines with redundant safeties, I’m worried we’re going to see a big uptick in accidents. And that’s just elevators, I don’t want to even think about all the other infrastructure that hasn’t been inspected in years that could fail at any time. Pumps, backflow preventers, bridges, and dozens of other things need regular inspection and maintenance.

The problem is that they get golden parachutes while the engineer and dozens or hundreds of his peers who has invested years into a “good, established company” gets shafted due to lay offs.

It’s YouTube, there is no line, just a vague squiggle that you can cross without any warning.

Obviously for the local petting zoo

Plus, mammoth burgers

My wife’s car lets you drive up to half a mile without the fob in the car.

As opening moves go, that was pretty bold.

We’re still trying to get people to quit smoking.

If phones killed you, we’d all just have to die

MAD is like 2 men standing in a lake of gasoline, one man has 3 matches, the other has 5, both threaten to use their matches if the other uses his.

Russia is saying they’ll use their matches if the other guy throws a rock at him. The fucking situation is stupid and I hope that my ashes get blasted to a different planet when the bombs go off. I don’t want to even be a part of this stupid planets carbon cycle anymore.
