Oh hey, look at the meme I made and posted 6 years ago on Reddit, the last time this xenophobic moron was in office. It’s almost like we could have predicted this shit.
But no, I was ‘hyperbolic’ and ‘alarmist’ at the time.
(Sorry for the Reddit link, it was this:)
Title: I’m sure Macron would be very happy to work out travel arrangements.
Look, all I’m saying is give Pis a chance.
This cannot be real, wtf. This is cartoon levels of ineptitude.
Or sabotage by someone heading out? Please let this be resistance sabotage they haven’t noticed yet.
Yeah, sorry, I thought at first they were 3 separate, tapered lengths, but looked again and realised it’s one long looped steel.
It’s still almost certainly not related to hoops, but I dunno what it is.

I’m in this picture and I don’t like it.
You’re absolutely right, but as a UxD, until these platforms learn UxD, they’ll never work. They can’t.
It doesn’t matter how great they are, the vast majority of people won’t learn. And they shouldn’t have to. That’s why big commercial apps are better – good designers need to eat, and big companies can pay for their eggs.
It doesn’t matter how good your model is, without great UxD, you’re dead in the water.
I’ve had a scene for a horror novel bumping about in my head for a while:
Guy breaks into a house late at night, wearing a mask but unarmed, goes to the kitchen to grab a kitchen knife with which to subdue the elderly couple living there (he knows because he’s cased the place).
He’s surprised by the elderly woman who’s suffering from insomnia, but he’s closer to the knife block, so he has the upper hand, and he grabs the closest knife on the block.
Woman: After a brief moment of initial shock, she lifts her kettle from the burner. ‘Are you planning to kill me with a paring knife?‘.
The startled home invader looks at his knife, sets it down, and grabs a larger knife.
Woman: ‘That’s a bread knife.’ She pours her tea. ‘Would you like to try again? Look for one that’s not serrated.’
Guy drops the bread knife, tentatively lifting knives from the block.
Woman: ‘Vegetable knife, poor choice. Keep going. Fish knife, okay, but not the best. How would you like to kill me? Are we talking stabbing or chopping? It makes a difference.’
The scene goes on from there.
There were news crews outside the bus, and reporters asking questions. They knew they would be in the news. This wasn’t surreptitious at all – quite the opposite.
Your hand looks a bit wet.
What a beautiful goof. I’m so sorry. ❤️
Holy shit, I called it.
I thought they’d have Congress do it, but this was more efficient, so yay?
The CLR did kill every sign of rust, so silver linings.
Oh, like the kind for cars?
That’s a great idea, thanks! If it works, I can send it through the dishwasher a dozen times and it should be fine, right? It’s the outer coating and I don’t plan to lick it much.
Thanks for the suggestion!
That’s in reserve for when his face is added to Mt Rushmore (after which the Lakota hopefully reclaim and restore it to their sacred mountain).

I can use right-handed scissors with my left hand, and I can knit in both directions without switching hands. I guess being ambidextrous isn’t totally useless (if I ever break my right hand, I’ll still be able to do most things), but it’s not really useful most of the time.
As a designer, programmer, and music engraver/editor, I’ve always paid for all media I’ve consumed because I’ve strongly believed creators deserve to be paid.
But after the Napster, Ticketmaster, Netflix, and dozens of other egregious examples of corporate sadism, I’m proud to sail the high seas now.
I just left a conversation with my 88 year old dad less gratified than a similar conversation with him 8 years ago. He’s recently fallen in love with a very conservative woman roughly 15 years his junior, and I’m feeling pretty bad about his leaning.
Many aspects of our conversation disturbed me. I’m feeling far worse about our societal situation than I did after our conversations 15 years ago. I don’t know what’s changed in that demographic, but it’s not good.
Bullets. We’re talking about bullets.
Get extra sauce. The whole point of bread is to carry sauce.
