    It's not that he didn't commit voter fraud, it's that the court said the wrong authority charged him. I'm tickled that some areas are cracking down on fraud. Wish all of them would. We'd be much better off.

    @jon-nyc said in "Any time you put money into the economy...": @taiwan_girl said in "Any time you put money into the economy...": @jon-nyc What is that a graph of? I am thinking printed money? Is the graph cumulative? Yes, the total money supply of dollars. Trump’s Fed pick roughly quadrupled the number of dollars in circulation in about 60 days in the spring of 2020. But, for sure, inflation is Biden’s fault. Inflation happened on Biden's watch. As I've been told before, when it happens during a president's term, he owns it.

    The word for today, boys and girls, is distillates. Remember that word, you'll be screaming about it in a couple of months.

    @George-K said in Cooking with Stainless: @LuFins-Dad said in Cooking with Stainless: I refuse to get non-stick. Because of the PTFE, I assume? Yeah… I also won’t use Aluminum, and spend 3 times more than I need to for dry cleaning to use silicone…. The two things that truly scare me personally are Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. I know the evidence is hardly conclusive about the links, but you know what? I don’t need to take those risks, so I won’t.

    @Mik said in "Get a cat...": That’s a message, not an accident. We had the "opportunity" to cat-sit D3's cat (Carly) for a while while her apartment's plumbing was being tended to. I put a litter box in the guest bathroom, and Carly, being a big cat, would do this. It's not because she was (ahem) pissed off - it's just that she was so big, she's stick her ass out over the edge and just miss. D3 told us that she doesn't do this at home, because her litter boxes are bigger. Of course, Boris and Maggie never, EVER, make a mistake like that.

    I can’t really speak to moving in… Thanks to MB, Luke has moved in a week before the general campus move in weekend. Moving out has been friendly enough…

    I am OK with how the venue handled this. Maybe the protesters will learn something and refine how they protest in the future.

    @Mik said in Christmas present for Aqua?: He would, but for his daughter. Pretty sure he wouldn't want to explain 'fuck the pumpkins' to her. I'd wear a hoodie over it whilst at home, definitely.
  • Oh crap. And I just bought a new one.

    It would be nice to zoom in on where in the process the sane people get filtered out. It's fun to lament the crazies we eventually have to choose between, but that's not the part of the process that admits to a solution. One might discover that there are no sane people running, and everybody looks insane when put under the microscope of important public office.

    A version of that has always been the complaint. That’s why the Robert Reich’s of the world prefer price controls and attacking “corporate greed”.
