This is incredibly fucked up. Handmaid's tale was a documentary.

I mean, no? In case it wasn't clear from the article, these are the people that voted for this shit. It's also ironic they're already on Medicare (in their 20s) as it is. This should be an 'I get it now' moment for these families, but they'll learn nothing.

Point of note - it's just 'Ukraine', not the Ukraine. 'The Ukraine' is a label used by those who see the nation as a region part of Russia. Small, but important thing I had to change when referring to it as well.

These specifically are invasive species to these states and negatively impact the ecosystem. It won't affect native species.

Edit to add that these mosquitos are the carriers of yellow and dengue fever.

The funny thing is this article talks about kids. My Mom is in her 70s and I maintain her phone and she currently uses a pixel 6, so it's the latest os of course. Whenever I see her, I have to declutter her notifications. They're constant. Apps and websites have gotten more noisy and aggressive in prompting users to enable notifications or sending constant push crap and I don't think most people know how to disable them while retaining what they're actually wanting to get.

I finally have a void kitty myself and I amuse my friends by sending pictures that state there is a cat in this picture. He is so incredibly light absorbent it is insane.

You can also pay for it and get a refund, which is what I did. It isn't anywhere close to being finished.

And you still can! Only now you can see Brand, errr, Snow as the narcissistic womanizing asshole that he is!

I bet the deer are doing terrible though.

 

I'll start with a movie line - without searching, quote the next line from the movie, then ID the movie, and then post a new quote from another movie - and continue!

"Hi, my name is Werner Brandes..."

I'm literally the only person I know who uses any of these platforms. A new messaging service out of those won't ever be on their radar.

I don't know what you're referring to

Apple is winning the communications game and I'm afraid I'll wind up switching once they go usb c. I'm sick and tired of the iMessage walled garden when messaging nearly everyone I know, and also tried of the hit or miss debacle of rcs. I will miss the customization freedom (currently using Niagara launcher and it's super unique ux), but Android phones have deleted all of the other benefits that separated them from iPhones, like expandable storage, ir blasters, headphone jacks, etc. I hate to jump on the bandwagon, but I'm sick of waiting for this all to be worked out. Before anyone says to use signal or Whatsapp, etc, it just isn't a standard here in the US. Folks will never switch off iMessage.
