Ah, the Ulililia diet

Polls also only try to measure public opinion and don’t quantify the very real effects that the vast toolkit of dirty tricks play in the election process, including whatever October surprises are lurking around the corner.

I keep seeing posts that polls show it’s 50-50 but polymarket has Trump’s odds at 60, Harris’ at 40 with over $2B in wagers. Terrifying.

Another casualty of the auroral storm. Darn those cosmic rays!

People used 3.1 and 3.1.1 for years even though it was running on top of MSDOS but show me someone who used 3.0? Or 1.x, 2.x? Unheard of. Version 3 started off with some problems that needed a more or less immediate large update.

Venmo is owned by PayPal, but I couldn’t find any information about if similar Venmo TOS changes are planned or already in effect.

I mean if you have a usb lying around, putting ubuntu on it and trying is free. Worth a shot, you could get access to the drive too if it works. If that doesn’t work you could still bring it into the shop to get worked on.

An open proxy war with two different co-allied nuclear powers, you say?

It does, I haven’t placed the order yet but I’ll check back in when/if I do with how it turns out.

After some more trying (logging in with my email rather than my mobile #) it seems like it’s working now. I appreciate the encouragement, I was ready to give up!

In the winter growing up we had a big ol tomcat and he would get the winter blues when feet and feet of snow would fall, so we’d get a 5 gallon bucket, punch a hole at the base at one side and fill it with birdseed so it would pour out slowly and set it up against the snowbank. We dug a little cat hole in the snowbank that faced it and laid a warm blanket in there for him to sit and watch and hunt the birds and squirrels. We loved that old tomcat, I still have a painting I did of him. Mom would pick and dry flowers and put them in his bed under the layers of old clothes and he would sleep on it near the wood stove and dream of spring. Cats spend only a short time with us and we owe it to them to do anything possible to make their lives more joyous and fulfilling. Thank you, stranger, may you have many happy years with your cats.

Did you end up eating more pizza than you would otherwise? Also I feel like everything in my apartment would smell like pizza which would get old.

Cats eat birds. You are punishing your cat by getting only a bird bath and not spreading heaps of birdseed around too to attract birds and squirrels for prey. Go for it, cats will thank you. Think of their purring, their adoring eyes. Be sure to put camoflagued and comfortable ambush sites in close reach of the killing grounds. Cheers.

Who else read this in burialgoods’ voice?

Haha, yeah I do it out of fear of restaurant workers and you all should too if you know what’s good for you! Like, they literally have time alone with the food you’re going to eat!

I always tip well, but in this case my love of loud alarms would win out

Prepackaged antipasto gave me days of horrible indigestion

Arguably blackpilled folks are less problematic than incels since they have given up looking and perhaps developed a better attitude toward women (paradoxically) while incels hold a shred of toxic hope that their tradwife will swoop in and save them and that hope eats them alive. Note: I am not a scholar of either community’s worldview
