This referred to CUNY a few times. I thought that, City University of New York, was a different institution, and I got the impression the article was referring to Columbia University as CUNY. Maybe I missed something?

That's exactly what I did with it.

(Spoiler in case anyone wants to guess first.)

This is at >!Emo's East in Austin, Texas. (I guess now they just call it Emo's.)!<.

An all-powerful, omniscient creator of literally spacetime itself, and he needs an anthill--one that is, on his scale, far smaller than a subatomic particle--to defend his honor against other anthills within the same infinitesimally small particle and to keep defending their anthill by some arbitrary and tiny point in this spacetime so they can have an everlasting party together outside of his pet spacetime, of which that anthill is, itself, constituted.

I like the "private bathroom" ideas better, too, but, if you find yourself having to make a constant cleaning strategy work, after all, then on top of cleaning, perhaps try using something like Elimin-Odor after cleaning (if you didn't already try that) to specifically neutralize what she might smell? They claim it's designed to neutralize odors enough that a cat won't associate an "accident" spot with future bathroom eligibility.

And this article recommends waiting 48 hours to make sure it's dried enough to pick/scrape.

In anything, if you want to go

From just a beginner to a pro

You need a montage! (Montage!)

Even Rocky had a montage (Montage!)

edit: Oh, but sorry, not under 30. I'll see myself out.

I always wondered about that name. It seemed deliberate, but I didn't know what he was going for. TIL

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slartibartfast

Douglas Adams wrote ... that he wanted Slartibartfast's name to sound very rude, but still actually be broadcastable. He therefore started with the name "Phartiphukborlz"...

...

"One thing I don't think I explained in the script book was that I was also teasing the typist, Geoffrey [Perkins]'s secretary, because ... she'd be typing out this long and extraordinary name which would be quite an effort to type and right at the beginning he says 'My name is not important, and I'm not going to tell you what it is'. I was just being mean to Geoffrey's secretary."

Do library cats' names count? Like Catticus Finch and the Great Catsby?

"it's a car, not a church."

Does the Brazilian government have tight enough control over agents not to abuse this? I'm imagining how much easier it would be to identify ransom targets coming from abroad if a rogue agent was affiliated with a criminal organization.

Well, if any of those are oil companies, your driving an EV is cutting demand for their product*. I wonder what other products are in there. I'm not trying to place blame back on consumers. We do vote with our money, but we're also sometimes trapped by our needs and choices in ways that only regulation might solve. I think the second part is the point of any story like this one, but the first part is something we can still try to do.

• Well, cutting demand for oil as long as we keep making progress towards low-carbon energy sources.

I remember seeing a documentary or news piece or something about a woman who pivoted hers to "BISCUIT!" I really hope that was real. But I don't remember how she got there, like if she had to trick herself that "biscuit" was offensive.

But is it a dead name? Last I looked, the URL was still "twitter.com".

By 2023, the picture was completely different: only 11 percent described themselves as very or somewhat conservative, 21 percent as middle of the road, and 67 percent of listeners said they were very or somewhat liberal.

The facts, coming from all around, have continually led more people to realize the GOP is full of shit, making people sympathize more with the "liberal" party, and that's somehow NPR's fault?

Pretty interesting getting to see these rare but predictable things coinciding and thinking about how it might have seemed like a series of omens to people in the past.

If it was 2 days in Nashville, I want to believe it was for BTBAM's 2-day/2-part concert "Colors II Experience" on March 26 and 27 at Basement East.

Documents ... say that Washburn “falsified sick leave” on Feb. 8 and 9...

Cookie Monster in a toilet.

I want:

• Zoom's...
  • ...annotation
  • ...richer reactions
• Teams's...
  • sensible screen layout
  • richer chat content
  • chat continuity before/during/after meetings
  • very granularly customizable avatars
• Some other tool's composition interface for chat text

Yeah, I remember learning about it in a CS class and, specifically, the claim that it's an ideal standard candle kind of image. I always wondered if we couldn't have found a better reference shot of a smooth flower growing in front of a rough stone or something.
