The Men Who Stare At Goatse

They exist! I thought they would be neat for a world building aesthetic but it turns out you can make photo sensitive dyes for solar panels!

Here’s mine:

1. Stained glass solar panels
2. Scent of wet earth
3. Elm trees

He called out a bunch of different European countries and we were supposed to raise our hands. He never called out mine. "What's yours?" he asked. "Scottish," I said.

"Oh, I already said English, it's the same thing."

The history teacher. The HISTORY teacher.

Related to the thread I found those last few reposts in--in oh, I think fifth grade, our history teacher wanted to chart out what "nationality" we all were. When I said I personally could claim a bunch of different ones, he said "go by your last name."

When beans are criminalized, only criminals will grow beans. *adjusts pole*

At a restaurant with family and “Money” came on as background music and as soon as the coins sound effect intro started my wife’s 10-year-old niece said “Uh-oh, Pink Floyd’s comin’!” The child’s grasp of classic rock gives me hope for the future.

two more weeks of this dumb war--- just the US expenditures, not any of the knock-on economic effects--- and you'd pay for the full budget of USAID pre-Trump

BREAKING: Washington Post reports the Strategic Helium Reserve has been emptied. "ᵂᵉ'ʳᵉ ᵃˡˡ ᵛᵉʳʸ ᶜᵒⁿᶜᵉʳⁿᵉᵈ ᵃᵇᵒᵘᵗ ᵗʰᶦˢ" says Lt. Paloma Soredick, Trump's pick to supervise the reserve. "ᵂᵉ ʷᶦˡˡ ⁿᵒᵗ ʳᵉˢᵗ ᵘⁿᵗᶦˡ ʷᵉ ᶠᶦⁿᵈ ʷʰᵒ'ˢ ʳᵉˢᵖᵒⁿˢᶦᵇˡᵉ ᶠᵒʳ ᵗʰᵉ ˡᵒˢˢ ᵒᶠ ᵒᵘʳ ʰᵉˡᶦᵘᵐ ᵃⁿᵈ ᵇʳᶦⁿᵍ ʰᶦᵐ ᵗᵒ ʲᵘˢᵗᶦᶜᵉ"

the US is doing the empire version of those guys who go spelunking without a plan and wriggle themselves into an inescapable crevice and suffocate

the reason we can't talk about how to fix the government on this website is because of something called The USA PATRIOT Act.

Since it was asked: yup! I'll soon have things like this in my shop. Listed as they are made, all one of a kind.

No, they won't be cheap. 😅 These take time, all hand crafted, and that's gonna reflect in the pricing. I gotta eat, too.

Netanyahu is evil.

Yeah, man, it’s an absolute mystery why so many people are going all in on AI refusal. Maybe they absolutely do understand the ways in which AI is “useful” to the people hawking AI in the words of those very people.

Says a lot about him that he's still on twitter :/

a crudely drawn man sitting in conversation with another crudely drawn man, like on a talkshow or something, says "what's the secret to my success? Every night before I go to sleep i take off all my clothes and put a ball gag in my mouth and cover myself in mud and write 'piggy' on my face so if i die in my sleep they'll think I died doing something more interesting."

Tweet from Ro Khanna: "You cheerled us into the war in Iraq. You called Pat Buchanan antisemitic for criticizing Israel's bombing of Lebanon in 2006. You are one of the loudest supporters for Netanyahu's war in Gaza. Your neocon ideology has done so much damage to America and people are on to it."

I mean Pat Buchanan actually is antisemitic - he denied the Holocaust - so if you are trying to argue that pro-Israel people are too overzealous in labelling criticism of Israel as antisemitism, Pat Buchanan is the last person you should be citing.

Respectfully, eat shit. Those kids were expelled, arrested, and targeted relentlessly by their school administrations with the specific goal of preventing further protest. Eighteen year old kids were held down and maced by campus security, hit point blank with tear gas canisters by riot cops.

I could use a little mid-month grocery money if anyone can help :(

Happy 6th anniversary to the time Sarah Palin sang Baby Got Back on the Masked Singer and then the show changed to Trump's address to the nation about COVID.

yeah, it's wild - never caught it as a kid bc i was watching on a tiny tv in fullscreen but the Goblin King Sarah imagines is a pastiche of a Bowie-esque "real" matinee idol she is obsessed with, who her mom apparently fucked.

In the last scene she is in the middle of taking down his clippings.

One of the brightest lights we had. Thankfully, that light still shines from every page.
