I had a doctor's appointment on Halloween a few years ago. I was getting ready to go out, I put out a bowl of candy (nice mix of different chocolates) and went back inside to grab my purse and my test results for the doctor. I was inside for maybe 45 seconds? During which time I heard a couple kids come up to the porch, say something like "What do you think?", and a slight scuffling sound. When I exited the house about 20 seconds later, they'd scooped the entire bowl clean and disappeared.

Not being very immersed in pop culture, I just assume they're dressed as someone from a show I don't watch.

As they desperately try to close the show before knucklehead alienates any more women ...

Savage faces charges of destroying or misplacing a ballot, and theft, according to online records. [...] Before turning himself in on Tuesday morning, Savage said he was innocent and described the charges as "bumped up."

Did you take it without authorization? That's theft. Did you put it someplace it shouldn't be? That's misplacement.

We have you on video folding them and putting them in your pocket, and cops found them in your car; I don't see how you expect to argue that you're "Innocent".

It's funny how all these "errors" seem to occur in blue areas, isn't it?

Good. Put all of them in prison.

Good, throw them all in jail.

I try to figure out what's causing it, then treat. I get headaches from eyestrain (so I take addition and focus on something else), allergies (antihistamine/decongestant), sunglare (eyerest), overexertion/dehydration (drink water and take it easy), caffeine withdrawal (drink cola), etc.

The thing is, there's no downside to it for Bezos. If Harris wins, she'll operate as normal. If tfg wins and Bezos was against him, he knows he'll get screwed over by the government somehow - an antitrust or monopoly investigation, something.

But he's telling fascists ahead of time that he's okay with whatever tfg wants to do, just don't hurt him. And that's how fascists win.

Depending on what I want to do, I used a combination of Unified Remote and LocalSend, both of which are available for Linux. With Unified Remote, I can control my PC on my home network. So if I want to copy over a URL, for example, I could open notepad and paste it remotely from my phone's clipboard (or type it manually), or I could open a new tab on my PC's browser and paste the URL so it's open and ready for me the next time I'm at my PC. I can sit downstairs on the couch and check the status of a project upstairs, open and run new programs upstairs, etc.

My only two complaints are that I need to be at the PC to handle admin messages like "Are you sure you want to install this program?", which I guess is a safety feature but it's still annoying. And secondly, I really wish they had an easier way to toggle between left- and right-mouse-click, it gets annoying.

To send images, actual files or even folders, I use LocalSend. It does require that you click Accept on the device you're sending to, but I can use Unified Remote to do that, and then save the files to wherever I want to (or accept the default).

This may be less streamlined than other options, but what I really like about it is that I can complete a task and then not have to think about it again. I don't have to go back to my desktop and download or save anything, I've already done it, the job's complete. The only exception is when I've put a new URL into my browser, but that's generally because I wanted to look at it on my (much larger than my phone's) desktop screen.

Anyway, it works nicely for me; I hope you find a solution that works for you!

Well, there's no downside to it for him, is there? If trump wins, he gets all sorts of goodies; and he knows that Harris will continue to try to be fair, so he won't suffer if she wins.

Charles Pierce is a 70-year-old former landlord of the Manzanita Manor Apartments in Redding. Pierce says he was fired from his role after his reddit posts came to light.

I'm assuming he's the property manager (you can't fire a landlord). Some places give the property manager an apartment to live in, so he may have also lost his place to live. And at 70 years old, he's not going to have an easy time finding another job.

Two years ... so, around the time Russia invaded Ukraine, and Musk was having problems funding his Twitter purchase around the same time? Any takers on Musk laundering Russian money?

Thank you for your comment, I really appreciate the opportunity to add you to my Block list.

And trump wants him to be in charge of dismantling the federal government....

Funny how none of them have spoken up until now. It's all well and good until they get what they want, and good for a bit after, but then suddenly things are going a bit too far? This is how all extremism works, by the little helping pushes of someone who wants just a little bit more - and then expects things to stop there, not realizing there's always someone else why wants something just a little bit beyond them - and someone else a little behind them.

When he was president, I remember waking up every morning with a very real feeling of existential dread - what bullshit had he decided during drug- and tv-fueled insanity in the middle of the night? I hate the election season as well, but this may be the last good times we have.

Also, their plans and infrastructure remain in place, regardless of if he loses. This is going to be every election from now on, until one day we stop having meaningful elections.

While this may be true, and monitoring your kids' internet exposure is generally good, can we please not turn the fediverse into Facebook? I hate this kind of alarmist shit.

There's an AA saying that the opposite of addiction is community; I find the same thing is often true of depression.

Let’s make this Black spouse somebody who has a really close relationship with another Brady

..... Ri-ight. I'm sure that this proposed show, with six grown-up Brady kids, six Brady spouses, and a decent number of Next Gen Bradys will have plenty of time for yet another character .... I'm sure that wouldn't be a token position at all ...

Actually, while I was writing this, I had a thought and I went back and re-read her comment:

"One of Jan’s children was going to be trans, and one of the Bradys was going to have a Black spouse. [...] Let’s make this Black spouse somebody who has a really close relationship with another Brady, and that’s how this Brady met them."

It's interesting, isn't it? She mentions Jan specifically, and "another Brady" who could have a black spouse, but she's pretty coy ("this Brady") about who was originally going to have the black spouse. Who wants to bet it was her?
