It feels like only a matter of time before Omar is officially connected. Her husband’s company has been scrubbing their website…

And I hate guided tours. Much too slow and boring. It’s like actually reading a self help book. 300 pages that could easily be condensed to a one pager.

@Tom-K said in A Christmas Message: Reading that Trump message after being away for a month from paying attention to any news or headlines or discussions of politics and it does come as a cold slap in the face that DJT just might be really really crazy. When I was in the middle of the news cycle day to day I guess I might have dismissed that as, "oh, that's just Trump." But as an isolated stand alone Christmas greeting from the most powerful man in the world those little paragraphs are kind of scary. Just sayin'. Funny...I was offline for about 3-4 days and I also had temporarily forgotten how insane he is. It does further prove my very selfish but realistic point that 99% of what you see in the news has absolutely zero effect on your life.

Merry Christmas, LD. A bit late but I've been away from the internet for a bit. We had a nice day... with kids 7, 5, and 2, I have been living in unpackaging toys hell...batteries, unclipping tightly packaged toys, setting up some electronics, setting up even more hot wheels tracks. Honestly I don't mind it (other than the very loud noise of all 3 kids asking for something at the same time) but I know their youth and excitement is fleeting in life, so I enjoy it. I also enjoy a very subtle pair of "noise reducing" (almost invisible) ear plugs. It's called "Loop", I think. It cuts the volume of noise down about 50% which I cannot describe how much it helps me avoid being an overstimulated dad with a headache.

The EU cannot really be compared to the US because most of the power still resides within the countries and not the EU (e.g., defense). Which means that the EU commission can also not be blamed for that many things. Thta said, what that person says is mostly harsh but true in my opinion.

She talked about gripping my shaft.

Hotdogs/pretzles, strange halal meats, roasted nuts, and Latinos with fruits, though the latter not so much in midtown.

A life well lived. Like him or not he was there to do his best for what he believed in and he did just that. God bless him.

@mark From what I understood on the Hazardous History episode it did contain a radioactive element. Wikipedia appears to confirm it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilbert_U-238_Atomic_Energy_Laboratory

Fantastic.

I also found out there is The Punk Rock Museum here. That has to be the least punk thing ever.

@LuFins-Dad said in Hay LD: This year will be a bit more of a pain in the ass. Karla is not turning down work, but she’s not hiring on enough workers as she’ls too scared of not having enough work for them next month… So when all the requests come in, she takes them herself including overnights. She’s been in the house 2 hours the past 3 days. To make matters worse, she had another overnight request come in for 23-27 so Lucas is taking that one. Tonight, it’s me and Finley from 9 till tomorrow at 7. I can tell you that I am pretty pissed… More than being spatially together, you all work hard for the good of the family; that spiritual unity is (at least in my mind) more valuable and more enduring. Merry Christmas!

I've only watched the first episode, but it was brilliant, and very fresh take on post-apocalyptic SCIFI.

Good news of course, but it's pretty freakin' sad that this is even an issue.

Last week he had a jazz concert on Tuesday and a classical concert on Thursday. [image: 1766594583749-img_9578.jpeg]

Don't forget all the sailors doing the blowjob dance to 'In The Navy'.
