Listen, as someone who fell in love with a trans woman decades ago (my ex), it’s more plausible than you’d think. I didn’t go shoot up people since I wasn’t raised right wing, but love does make you do crazy things!

Hmm, that does explain why it’d need mortar, too. The tongue and groove stuff works like puzzle pieces and if you follow a lot of the other advice, it’s not a terribly hard diy project. There’s cheaper stuff out there, too, though you definitely notice the difference.

I have similar, I believe it’s a type of laminate (they call it that, it can be inflexible but has a fake wood look). Does it have a tongue and groove edge where two pieces meet? Either way, new floor needed. If you can’t afford it, a temp solution is to make a transition since it’s by a door, you can kind of get away with a slightly different floor and a cover over the gap.

Having done a little work on mine, good flooring can get costly. Just a pack of 18 sq ft here was $50, though it was very good, textured laminate. Waterproof stuff, too, doesn’t require mortar.

An alternative, you can install a temporary landing, since it’s by a door. Transitions are a solution I use when I needed a patch of floor done. Whole floors get expensive even if you diy.

Is that a Banksy?!

Pretty sure they’re just referring to conservative, but man there really should be a cuckservative community.

Not good enough! Need a compressed phone photograph of a screen with bad cropping, bare minimum.

Funny, a decade ago I would have suggested an AI do exactly this as impartial, but we don’t have that kind of AI, we have LLMs. Ugh, clearly they just want more corruption.

From what Grok has been saying, it was definitely a Jojo reference. Haha, Charlie is so good at getting roasted. Nice try!

You had me in the first half, hehe.

Aren’t they already doing that with folks who… post JD memes? I mean, c’mon.

I had my moment accidentally in teaching class today when I accidentally said “turning point.” This alone would be fine if I didn’t then giggle to myself after noticing.

“Alright you guys, you might have got away with this one but I don’t wanna go see you kill any more right wing propagandists, ok? We’re super serious, you guys!”

Not in defense of the imperial system, but if you’re curious why it’s so arbitrary, it’s a crazy story about untangling a ton of proprietary guild measurements. The mile itself isn’t quite proprietary (it was defined as 8 furlongs, and you can blame the English for ruining a perfectly good roman measurement) but they needed to make it a certain number of chains, rods, yards, and feet, plus a few other obscure measurements I forget about. Naturally that results in a stupid conversation rate (mostly vs yards and feet since it was basically a different system).

Why we still use it, dunno. I can see an argument for keeping feet and inches for things like carpentry (in the similar way I like hexadecimal in programming) but miles is not that. It’s about as logical as this point as fahrenheit, which is to say it’s outdated nonsense.

Or like 95% of my college students. :(

It’s ok. I see a tilde. And yes, ~

That’s a pretty valid point, although the rear view usually also blinds me at the same time. Usually I get the full three mirror flash, one from behind and two on the wings, lol. I really like my mirrors, though, they have a lovely convex mini-mirror on them so I get a little extra glance. I still look over my shoulder, but it’s nice to detect someone hovering there before I even make my decision to lane change.

Not to be nitpicky but those locations are all over the place, lol. I wonder what the actual percentage of programmers need to pivot to slop cleanup duty.

This bothers me because the car door is like 2/3 of the mirror. I get it’s probably the angle of the camera but I swear there’s so many people out there with side mirrors misaligned.

I rarely see the rides in use, but my guess is the permissive parent already gave the kid a tablet and tablets are way more addictive than mall rides
