There are some unusual ways to stay young. I find them. 😆

I almost bought $2,000 in GameStop stock in april. Would now have $200,000. Oh well!

@Axtremus

If it works correctly there won’t be any need for me to use that skill.

I’m glad to know you aren’t working on it.

Whataboutism! Unclean!

I think Yascha is making largely the same prediction as Renauda.

It is what it is, I guess. Sure, the politically viable folk are not white males anymore. But the politically viable ideas are as they always were: safety, security, opportunity.

@catseye3 said in The Office:

My company blocks this website, presumably with good reason.

Seriously, why are they?

Who knows? They block all kinds of stuff.

Luckily for me, I only ever look at work-related stuff during office hours.

From the CNBC accurate article:

"Five people, including a Capitol police officer, died as a result of the riot."

@catseye3 said in Trump irrelevant?:

His perceived audience is no longer of any use to him insofar as getting what he wants to get. So there's no need to talk to them.

I dunno, Cats.
I'm watching Kerry now. Looks like they are hitting the ground running with climate change and a certain disdain for those neanderthals that work in fossil fuels. That's going to be Big Money during an era of Covid and the repercussions of Covid. Might be a lot of angry frustrated people in a few years that once again get tired of being lectured to by the clean elite wealth class.

Haha

I'm working on Pagodes from Debussy Estampes, a couple of Rachmaninoff pieces, and putting not enough time into the 2nd Chopin Ballade.

Oh, and nice peice, Tav.

@klaus said in The Top Scientist:

I'd say anyone who investigates a topic using the scientific method is a scientist.

I'm a scientist of photos of naked women.

@jolly why is it so hard to believe that people just did not like President Trump? And didn’t want to see him as president for another four years?

People have a tendency to try and find theories, no matter how crazy, when things don’t go their way or if the outcome is different than what they expect.

HR DEPT: i’m sorry, you didn’t get the job. We decided to go in another direction.

ME: that is impossible. I know I was the best person for the job. There is no way I should not of gotten that job. There must be some other reason. Who is paying you to give them the job? What information do they have that made you give them the job? I know there is no way that they got it on their own!

It is hard for people to understand when others don’t view you the same way you view yourself.

@xenon said in Keeping abreast of the news...:

That daughter seems like quite the nutcase. Fair or not, reflects poorly on both parents.

Well, her dad is a nutcase...

Time to drag Twitter screaming over the legislative coals.

@aqua-letifer said in The Lie List:

Dude, come on.

It's "C'mon man". Or, "Give me a break". I don't think Biden uses the word "Dude". At least I hope he doesn't.

I'd have to look, but I bet he does.

Major hint now.

Imagine the board broken up (figuratively) into little 2x1 segments like this:
