A TV show shouldn’t be required watching to understand what’s going on in the next “big blockbuster”. If they have to be “in universe”, make those about street level, 3rd tier heroes. Nobody knew who Peacemaker was 10 years ago, and it’s one of the best.

What a stupid, stupid, stupid design for a ‘space’ bomber. Just utterly stupid. I can’t say stupid enough.

Mods are asleep, post fake Richard Scarry cars.

There’s nothing magic about Lucas’s vision. But JJ Abrams vision is exclusively “bigger is better”. Death Star destroys planets? Well, this Death Star IS a planet. And it kills multiple planets, and it’s called Starkiller, and it shoots through hyperspace.

Star Destroyer? Let’s make each one a Death Star. With a big gun. And you can ride horses on the hull.

Stormtroopers? They fly now.

(Godzilla? Uhh… My monster is just as big as Godzilla, and it’s only a baby.)

Do I have to do it tonight, or can there be a ‘waiting period’? (I have nothing to wear…)

I say ether. Every once in a while I find someone infuriated by that, and it gives me much joy.

Nice try Elon. Go back to Twitter.

Get a dog, you big lovable jerk.

They will start with the porn. That’s where they’ll get the least pushback. Then it will spread to all NSFW subreddits.

I used to think the government was hiding evidence of alien UFO encounters to prevent widespread panic. Now I think they’re using general UFO encounters as a cover for weapons testing.

To be fair, in Musk’s fantasy Mars is the easier planet to live on.

Sorry, none of those are true.

-GIMP is freeware.

-It’s also open source.

-It’s also free to distribute.

-It’s free to modify.

-It’s even free to sell, as long as you include the source code.

Please explain. How is FOSS not also freeware?

I can’t guess where your interests lie, but you’ll get more girls with a manual.

I put vinyl siding on my house 15 years ago. Still looks brand new. Vinyl is here to stay.

Marijuana is legal here. Dispensaries can ONLY accept cash, because they’re locked out of the federal banking system.

For some of the other posts I see here, in case you have these problems in the future. These aren’t in order of importance.

1. Powdered ant killer that comes in the tube is better than those little ant traps. Don’t waste your money on traps.

2. I had a groundhog living under some cement steps in the backyard. Tried all sorts of things to evict him, but didn’t want to kill or hurt him. Tried repellents, moth balls, pepper powder, etc. Tried filling in the hole repeatedly. eventually I got pissed and started dumping the cat box in the den. I only had to do it once.

3. If you’re paranoid about burglars, neighbors, etc. get some motion sensing lights for outside. And the cheapest home security cameras you can get. I started with some very cheap Blink wifi cameras (battery powered, about $100 for 4 on Woot!) years ago. Upgraded last year to mains powered Blink LED lights and cameras. Then when I went on vacation for a couple weeks, I pulled the battery cameras out of the drawer and set them up strategically inside the house. Blink charges a monthly subscription now (I grandfathered in before they charged), so plan accordingly.

4. know where all the shutoffs are, and how to use them. Power, Water, Natural gas, etc. And DON’T FUCK WITH NATURAL GAS! Let the professionals do it. I guy near Detroit killed his entire family last year swapping out a hot water heater himself. He survived. The house was no longer there.

5. Smoke alarms, get them. at least one for every level, PLUS one in every bedroom. Get the connected alarms that set off the entire house when one goes off. CO detectors too, if you have appliances that burn stuff.

Did you post this in every community? This --> <-- close to getting blocked.

I have generally tipped at least 20%. But tipped workers in my state just fought to keep their sub-minimum wage, because republicans convinced them that people would stop tipping if they were paid more. Tipped minimum wage was going up to $6, but now it’s only going up to $4.74. I’ve been tipping too much, and will bring it back down to max 15%.

There are 365 days in a year. If we keep the standard 7 day week, that gives us 52 weeks, with a single day left over. That day can be New Years Day, and be outside the standard week. Call it a special day, make it a holiday, whatever. Leap years would have 2 special days. Put the second in the summer to balance the one in the winter.

That means every year is there same. Divide the year to into as many months as you want, as long as each one has a ‘multiple of 7’ days. January 1? Always a Sunday. April 3? Always Tuesday. Leap year day? It’s on the calendar between Saturday and Sunday.
