@GentlemanLoser That's some weird assed etymology on that word. But at least I'm not a dick about being correo.

@SeahorseTreble

@macattack So when does Trump cut a deal to rat on himself for immunity?

@MicroWave

@SeahorseTreble I'd say say "no thanks, I'm sober" I guess but I'd definitely invite you golfing (it's teatotal, like the beverage, not teetotaler). 😉

@mulcahey it might depend on the edit. The album version is pretty long. Still, if you give some gusto, it's generally a crowd pleaser.

Mr. Roboto, Tainted Love (Soft Cell version), Mack the Knife, Melikalikimaka for Christmas season,

@Chainweasel Remember the January 6 rioters that got into the Senate chamber rifling through senator's desks? How when they came upon Ted Cruz's desk they started reading the speech he had left there, got all riled up about it, then one of the rioters stops them and says something to the effect of "this is Ted Cruz - it's okay. He's with us"?

@YoBuckStopsHere

@YoBuckStopsHere I don't know, I feel like I've been waiting 40 years for a new political party to be formed in the US.

It seems more like the two we have just keep morphing.

@Hazdaz

@Hazdaz I kind of feel like the GOP has imploded, though. Since Trump especially (and really I think this strain of anti-democracy conservativism dates back to the 2000 election where they saw that they could just bully their way into stealing elections), there doesn't seem to be much of the Republican Party that preceeded him left. Now it's all antidemocratic fascists and nutjobs. Just because they call themselves Republicans and win elections doesn't mean their politics really has anything to do with what their party stands for on paper.

I think it's more a case of being careful what you wish for. Yes, they imploded. Yes, they don't really exist anymore. What has supplanted them is so much worse

@YoBuckStopsHere

@dan1101 Or a school board that wants to teach the "benefits" of slavery, or an antivaxxer that's in charge of the health department, or a city council that wants to run things "like a business" and winds up endangering citizens health by de-regulating environmental and water regulations to cut costs.

@soviettaters

@stopthatgirl7 She also ended up with slightly frizzy hair compared to her relatively straight hair.

All around messed up and creepy.

@whenigrowup356 Yup. And then you have the New World animals where we use the name of the animal for both the animal and the meat, like buffalo.

@nydas

@abcd Stars are yellow?

@Melatonin @Alperto

You won't BELIEVE what these girls wear on Wednesdays!

@JuBe Next up: Trump U.

@Chetzemoka

I just fell in love with West Virginia a few weeks back. So beautiful and while not a blue state, exactly, the people there were so welcoming and kind.

@Anissem

I'd say the best places to reside in Michigan are going to be in the lower half of the Lower Penninsula if you want a temperate climate. Doesn't mean winter won't fuck your shit up at least two or three times a year.

Beautiful nature spots are a day trip or long weekend away and quite lovely, though smaller in scale than the sprawling, mountainous naturescapes of California. We don't have anything quite as epic as Big Sur, Lake Tahoe, or the Redwoods here (souece: Michigander lived 13 years in the Bay Area), but we do have some very lovely areas and they're imo much more accessible for the average Joe. Oh yeah and when fall comes in, the color is AMAZING. It's a rather flat state all in all, though. Most places you have to drive to see anything rolling lamdscape-wise. It makes winter with all of the leaves off of the trees rather bleak if you're in sputhern Michigan.

But, there's a lot of interesting lore that you don't really get anywhere else like Great Lakes shipping/shipwrecks, bootlegging hotspots, a fucking shit-ton of musical history, tons of breweries and local agricultural festivals. If you're willing to pick and choose your urban areas, you can definitely find those spaces that have a Californian vibe about them, but they're not really centralized.

I love how, in the end, Boimler did influence the future timeline, but he did it in a really wholesome way.

@FuzzyDunlop
It's more like if you find the Lower Decks characters in the crossover amusing, then you'd probably enjoy Lower Decks, but the episode isn't written in a way that you have to know that show to enjoy it.

Not to be one of those people that yaps on about that aggregator site that makes money leaching off of content provided and moderated by users or anything, but this would be my first instance of hopping onto something posted to the Fediverse that was unexpected and awesome and so much fun!

I'd have dully waited until Thursday, too.

@VirginChad Nae true Scotsman is missing.
