They grow very well there.

Putin believed in his own mythology. Russians would be welcomed by Ukrainians with offerings of bread and salt. As a result there was no need for planning or anything resembling logistical support.

@jon-nyc Probably not legal in Canada, but acceptably lawful in Alberta.

@Klaus said in Milo: He was always over the top, but I wonder what made him go completely off the rails. Apparently, he interned with Margorie Taylor Green earlier this year. That might do it.

Aw-w-w-w.

Just think of it as an abortion after birth.

@Mik The losers didn't start the riots....

@jon-nyc said in You have no one to blame but yourselves: Fucking Brits https://blog.duolingo.com/soccer-vs-football/ I thought everybody knew this. Well, not foreigners obviously.

I have tried several lights, I can't find one that works just right. I have 2 that look something like that, but they are kind of heavy and I can't quite get the light in a position where it shines on the page and is not in my face. When I move the gooseneck to a good position, it is extended so far from the page that it droops after a while. So I got this at Lowes: [image: 1669604259209-925dbfa6-5398-4a25-babb-7d64acd4f71e-image.png] https://www.lowes.com/pd/Homdec-LED-Desk-Lamp-with-On-Off-Switch-Study-Reading-Metal-Base-Table-Light/5013814579 It sits in front of and blocks part of the page, and the dots that you see on the lens of the light show up on the page - it is covered with dots. Your light looks like it has similar dots, do these show up on the sheet music? I'm starting to think that the right answer is a light that is wall or ceiling mounted.

Such a George Harrison move, though.

@jon-nyc said in Elon and the Bots: Charitable to whom? Humans?

Watched the first two. Link to video High production values, and the actress who plays Wednesday is great. Zeta-Jones makes a short appearance in the 1st episode, then no more. Gomez is horribly miscast. Lurch is on for about 5 minutes. Picture a macabre version of a Hallmark Channel movie, and you'll get a sense of this show. It just tries too hard to be cute and nostalgic, while maintaining a smirking sense of discomfort. The best thing about the show is the CGI rendition of Thing. Haven't seen Fester. I'll give it one more, but it's probably...Nope.

Is been a great day. Browns and Bengals win, Ravens lose. To the Jaguars. BWAAHAHA!!!

Damn, I was rooting for Spain. I want our pathetic team to go home.

Mr Jones is at the helm of several large organizations. Head coach of his football team is a single position of leadership among many. Would anybody care to guess whether people of color are in fact represented among that class of leaders through his organizations?

I find the article kind of nonsensical. They start with the premise that population density would be far lower due to the inherent genetic makeup of the Neanderthal to stay in small family groups. Well, if that’s true then why are we even having this conversation? The Neanderthal never stood a chance at surviving because of that basic trait.

I wouldn’t be a landlord in NYC for love or money, but if I had to I’m sure I’d want to do the background check. I’m just curious how the ex-cons experience it. Is it a minor annoyance that some buildings won’t let them rent there? Or is it so ubiquitous that they basically have to live with a relative?
