I can’t tell. Is this a Jonathan Swift reference?


Not this flavor, no.
As far as I can tell, this may be accurate. I’ve observed that we (USA) have a taboo around discussing what happens in the bathroom. I’ve pushed back on this and, anecdotally, have uncovered that this is all too common an experience. I wound up testing myself for food allergies and sensitivities and learned that there’s a whole range of foods that my body can’t handle. As I share my situation, I find more and more people that are waking up to a similar situation.
That’s my understanding too. It’s like empathy just ends at one’s own line of sight. If I can’t see it or touch it, there may be something wrong with it. It’s infuriating.
I fucking love these.
My favorite is the Waffle House: https://wandering-nobunaga.com/stories/a-waffle-house-at-three-in


I honestly don’t think that style of dystopia will require cameras at all. My best hunch here is that the self-checkout will migrate to the new “scan while you shop” model. Associating your personal scanning wand with, well, you is all it takes at that point.
Meanwhile what we’re looking at here is Walmart solving the problem of not having a good look at a shoplifter’s face, since there is no better place to stick a camera in their comically proportioned warehouse-sized stores.


I found the core game to be… okay. I wound up with far too many ways to deal damage than I needed, nevermind the enormous stockpile of potions and other things that I carried around. But the challenge was never completely where I wanted or expected it to be.
Meanwhile I’m like one of 15 people in the world that hate playing gwent.
Edit: I only learned recently that you’re supposed to collect all the good cards before playing gwent. As someone that loathes pay-to-win-CCGs, I find myself disliking it even more now. Even though it’s just in-game, the concept of having to collect playing cards just isn’t fun to me.


That would explain the use of 2x12 (2x10 maybe?) lumber and how it kinda disappears into the house past the siding. Still, I wouldn’t want that lumber exposed to the elements like that - it’s like asking for moisture to penetrate the structure.
Thank you for posting the obligatory Klaus video.


Also: no ledger board on the house side of that deck. Even with proper post support, it’s still a widowmaker.

What’s amusing about this is that actual silicone dildos would probably work better and would be more hygenic.

I got this a lot when I was an actual boss. It was always done in a brotherly, jokingly left-handed, kind of way. This fits perfectly with my management style. It was nice.

If it’s satire, it’s really close to the line. So close, that I wouldn’t be surprised if right-wing propagandists ran with it, just to prove a point. After all, if a big enough group of crazies rally behind something like this, they’d be stupid not to.
Oh bother.

Or just a t-shirt and flip-flops.

That’s not a server rack, that’s an SCP.

Skill issue. Nexusmods exists for a reason.
It’s been… how long?! Oh no.
it’s a play on the HD/4K thing. SD for televisions is “standard definition”, or what we had before HD: good 'ol NTSC.
Edit: sorry to hear about your med situation. Personally, I can’t do any of the uppers for this because they wreck my gut, and leave me feeling strung out at the end of the day.
