I really like Bill Hicks, but because he was so on point about stuff then (~35 years ago!) I have found it hard to watch his stuff for the last decade. So great, but too real. I hate that I struggle to find it funny now like I did then.
But great share! Totally relevant.
Thanks for this post. I’ve been aware of demi- for awhile but didn’t know what it meant, so didn’t understand this shower thought. I looked it up and am now better for it! But now I wonder what options demimoore could mean.
Not who you replied to, but thanks for explaining! I saw the /j but still didn’t get it. I wasn’t a good chemistry student…
Wow, I don’t think I ever saw one of those! The first phone I had in my room was a touch tone I made from a kit haha. It was just a handset, I don’t remember how the hook worked. Maybe it had an on/off switch?
I grew up in a house with what I thought were rotary phones that looked like this, with the dial on the wall mount, but I can’t find any pictures. I know they were rotary, but I’m guessing I don’t remember the handset correctly. One of them was this color! The other was a darker brown. We did a bunch of work to the house in the mid 90s, but kept one of them. It caused a lot of problems when my folks switched from dial-up internet to DSL. They had to get rid of it.
I wouldn’t be surprised if most red states have outdated water systems that are unable to be hacked remotely. Have to rely on good ol’ social engineering!! The operators probably have outdated brains that are susceptible.
Bill Clinton pulled out a saxophone to make liberal economics sexy and unfortunately it worked.
Maybe you should wash your dishes.
I don’t remember the movie well, but remember it being dark as well.
This is likely the front of a right hand steer vehicle. In the image, you can see that the photo was taken by Paul Abbit, Falmouth College of Arts. Not really much to work with to know the vehicle, or which game boy game they’re up to 😅
Isn’t this a trope? I could well be off haha, but if so I wonder if this is where it started.
Thanks for bringing this back to my mind. My landlord is looking to do something with the “lawn” and I would rather plant native grasses since we are in a dry climate. Neither one of us wants to water or mow. I have been looking at things but maybe here I can bounce some ideas off folks who live in a similar climate.
They are pretty friendly and also quite considerate
Apt description!
I really like jumping spiders. They are fun to be around and have in the house. I just wish they were more common here, but instead we have widow spiders that make me nervous when I work around them. I just try to pretend they are friendly, too…
Very interesting to me that asteroids that are not that much larger than a human can form/stay together! Let alone be landed on. How much gravity would we generate in space?
I thought this was a pretty new thing, and I have been using Linux longer than it has been around. Clearly I have not hopped distros enough.
Ya Belgium didn’t need FIFA integrity to win this one. That late fourth goal had to feel rough for US! Hopefully this will make FIFA and US leadership restrain from this activity in the future but I have no hopes for that.
When they tell you your shoe is untied bit you thought it was time to limbo!
I remember reading about something like this 20 years ago that seemed promising, but ended up only handling non plastic waste. Specifically waste from turkey processors if I remember correctly. The article said something about anything into oil, but it didn’t work out that way. I’m glad that folks are still researching this, but we really just need to have less plastic waste.
I’ve spent much of my adult life being transient, going to where I find work. It’s given me the ability to see interesting places, but rarely to know them deeply. There have been places I wanted to stay. Good community, good support networks. I loved the place, but struggled to find work. I left. It isn’t always great but I was used to moving.
I can’t imagine what it is like for immigrants traveling longer distances than me. Just for work and a better life. I believe they are leaving good communities and support networks not just for work, but for bigger reasons than I can really understand. How awful to get to a place and find it to be hateful towards them but have no immediate option to leave. It shouldn’t be that way.
