I’d rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.

copied youtube comment…

Kara Swisher needs to be an advisor for Kamala to deal with this problem.

Or… “You seem to want to talk about sex a lot. Is everything OK at home?”

Follow in the footsteps of Gil Cisneros…

"…is an American government official, philanthropist, and politician who served as Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness in the Biden administration. He served as the U.S. representative for California’s 39th congressional district from 2019 to 2021

“In 2010, he and his wife won a $266 million Mega Millions lottery jackpot and became philanthropists, establishing endowments for scholarships to be given to Latino students at GWU and the University of Southern California. They also founded Generation First Degree Pico Rivera, with the goal of ensuring every Latino household in Pico Rivera has at least one college graduate, and the Gilbert and Jacki Cisneros Foundation with an initial investment of $20 million to provide mentorship in education.”

Post a follow-up please.

What? “Baby Shark” hasn’t been mentioned here yet?

SUVs have to be high on the list.

It’s a toss up: either chalkboards or dry erase boards. Both are remarkable.

Yeah, but there’s… SolarDIY - 345 subscribers

Old time solar user here. I installed a 2.4KW system myself in 2003. Initial cost $16K, reimbursed half of that. We never regretted the cost - only wish we could have installed more. Now we also want batteries.

PS: Have you already considered posting to c/SolarDIY, or searching by “solar” in the Communities page?

Hey! We’re not getting older! The young kids are getting younger!

Thanks for writing this up, it’s very interesting!

“Dystheism (from Ancient Greek: δυσ-, romanized: dus-, lit. ‘bad’ and θεός theos “god”) is the belief that a god is not wholly good and can even be considered evil, or one and the same with Satan.”

Funny picture!

But GS cookies are pretty awful. They’re full of sugar and palm oil. Maybe if they offered something that’s actually good for us, and the world, they’d sell more?

So Japan still uses analog broadcast TV? Maybe it’s different for other US TVs, but since the switch to the digital broadcast system my TVs show black when a channel is not available. Snow has gone the way of the old test pattern of years ago.

So, in the bottom picture, the staff can only passively look at the far away screens?

“No touchy the keyboard!”

But my god is more peaceful than yours. You’ll accept this or I’ll have to kill you. /s

What helped me was to eat better. In general my health improved by getting further away from a SAD (Standard American Diet): no meat, only occasional fish, lots of vegetables, much fewer processed foods. But what might be the most important was to replace sugar with local and/or unfiltered honey. (Maybe its pollen immunized me from certain allergies that started the infections?) I haven’t had a sinus infection for months, almost years now.

There’s an interesting book that goes into these issues…

Kiln People is a 2002 science fiction novel by American writer David Brin

The novel takes place in a future in which people can create clay duplicates (called “dittos” or golems) of themselves. A ditto retains all of the archetype’s memories up until the time of duplication. The duplicate lasts only about a day, and the original person (referred to in the book as an archie, from “archetype”, or “rig”, from “original”) can then choose whether or not to upload the ditto’s memories. Most dittos want to inload, so that their experience will be continuous with that of their archie.

My wife and I joke about how we could really use a “grey” some days.
