My favorite brewpub, Cartridge, in the old abandoned Peters Cartridge plan, is hosting a drag Queen show dinner. It’s 18 and up, but this is a family place. Not a favorite anymore.

I've liked my HP Spectre x360 - I've had it for a few years now, I think I got it for about $1100 on offer. The one thing it lacks is an HDMI socket. It doubles (kind of) as a tablet, although it's a pretty clunky one. Lots of people say they don't like touch screens, but I find I use it quite a bit.

BTW, the bill was killed in committee.

Cigarette smoke is good at what it does.

Goebbels called it The Big Lie.

It’s starting….. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been asked to vacate their British base of Frogmore Cottage, the couple's spokesperson has confirmed. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-64815383

Wanna wear one, wear it. Just make sure you're wearing a fit-tested N95 and wear it for no more than 2 hours. Be very careful not to touch your hands to your eyes while you're wearing the mask...Actually, you'd be better off wearing sterile goggles, also. And a reminder...when removing your PPE, use sterile technique, as all outer garments (including your mask and goggles) are contaminated.

@Doctor-Phibes His approach seemed rather ham-fisted…,”Hey, let's put trade sanctions on them! OK, now let's do it to Europe too! Everybody's a loser except me!" Ham-fisted is an understatement. Our the Minister of International Trade referred to it as absurd when he slapped tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminium because he felt they were a threat to national security. Thankfully it was US manufacturers who induced him to lift the tariffs when it became apparent that domestic supply couldn’t meet the demand and the prices for the commodities began to skyrocket. Tump proved himself to be an unsurpassed mental midget in most of his international dealings. Clueless is the word.

Joe wins. JFK comes in second. Lincoln maybe third.

The awkward silence after he says, "That's what (SCOTUS) is there for, to follow the law." What a maroon. Wait, I'm still listening to him.... he registered for, applied for, and got into a college and only then did he run the numbers of what it would cost and was surprised. Smart man.

@Horace said in Lawsuit for not giving remote employees more money: Someone in marketing. Of course.

@Axtremus said in Pro tip for travelers: For quite a while, my usual "airport breakfast" was the egg white avocado thin bagel sandwich. But the shop closed sometime during COVID. :man-shrugging: I like them too. Nice to find something relatively healthy in fast food.

I think the reason is weight. It is expensive to put the fuel needed for a powered descent into orbit. A parachute is light. Of course the retrieval at sea isn't necessarily cheap. Also the SpaceX booster doesn't achieve orbital speed. I'm not sure, but doesn't the booster speed come close to zero when the booster reaches max altitude? Does it just keep going up until gravity stops it? Or maybe just slows it way down? I guess I could google something, but it is easier to just make it up.
