Crazy times. Also normal times

I’m thinking those new Lazy Boy office chairs they have at Costco. They seem to be well built, are quite comfortable, and look good at a great price. I could see these in all the offices at the Federal Reserve…

@LuFins-Dad said in Made in America Gift Guide: Nothing says “I don’t love you as much as I pretend to” like buying shitty American made crap. Imagine getting a Trump fungible for Christmas. Looking on the bright side, no jury would convict.

@jon-nyc said in Mass shooting at Hanukkah event in Sydney: Times is still reporting it as ‘verified video’. It’s real. I said so

Ben Wa trees!

Finley, French toast. Luke, espresso.

Saw one at the Washington Club a few weeks ago. Bathroom attendant, too.

Love it. Can't wait to hear how it turns out. We're having 5 oz filets and a pear blue cheese salad. The Bills won and the Chiefs got knocked out of the playoffs so we popped a Prosecco. Do not ask About the Bengals.

I am usually OK with self-checkout, except when I need to use a gift card and when I buy something with special discounts; having a human cashier makes it easier to deal with "exceptions."

It stands the test of time. Like COBOL.

The species is doomed.

@Renauda said in Two killed, 8 others shot at Brown University: … Saw the cctv coverage of the perp leaving the area on the BBC. He (no doubt in my mind as to his gender) has an odd gait. Almost knock kneed on his right leg. Hope they catch him soon and alive, and keep him alive to stand trial. Haven’t seen any video yet but damn if he’s pulling a Keyser Söze and fakes that limp…that would be genius.

I haven't followed the debate, but isn't the administration totally admitting that the goal was to kill the people, even the survivors, not just stop the boat? There are less lethal ways to stop the boat, yes there are nets that can clog a motor if you're close enough, and the coast guard has specific weapons to be precisely shoot/terminate onboard motors.
