what a weird stock photo, I wonder what the rest of the series looked like

Voters in Ohio reject GOP-backed proposal that would have made it tougher to protect abortion rights (apnews.com)

Ohio voters on Tuesday resoundingly rejected a Republican-backed measure that would have made it more difficult to change the state’s constitution, setting up a fall campaign that will become the nation’s latest referendum on abortion rights since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned nationwide protections last year.

This quote from the resident is spot on!

Previously Secret Memo Laid Out Strategy for Trump to Overturn Biden’s Win (www.nytimes.com)

A lawyer allied with President Donald J. Trump first laid out a plot to use false slates of electors to subvert the 2020 election in a previously unknown internal campaign memo that prosecutors are portraying as a crucial link in how the Trump team’s efforts evolved into a criminal conspiracy....

I am using Firefox on mobile but it has the default settings, I even tried it in private mode which is more settings enabled or relaxed.

Oh well

You want me to tell you about my mom? My mother?

I once was fired for being a top performer but being a contractor. Me and another guy were doing 45% of all the IT help desk work for a top American insurance company. Then one day th company that employed us had their contract terminated. This means that we were asked to leave. In the exit interview I asked if it was performance based, because I felt we did most of the work, they complemented my performance and even noticed that I was the best at making coffee but they had to start making better financial choices and we were welcome to apply for full time work with the company.

Funny how it worked out because the next job was the one that really put me into the career position.

So I have to say that sometimes bad things happen when it’s not your fault but it can be a blessing in disguise. You might be opening a door to something better.

Two U.S. Navy Servicemembers Arrested for Transmitting Military Information to the People’s Republic of China (www.justice.gov)

In two separate cases in the Southern and Central Districts of California, two U.S. Navy servicemembers were arrested for transmitting sensitive military information to the People’s Republic of China (PRC)....

Kurt’s version is good but Mark Lanegan’s is probably better. www.youtube.com/watch?v=SbXrgGpvPeU

Now imagine them doing it together and making a whole album of Lead Belly covers… we all really missed out on that because Kurt wanted Mark to sing but Mark was too intimidated by Kurt’s popularity. They were best friends and Kurt might have killed himself because of how is fame was ruining his personal relationships (drugs didn’t help for sure!)

Interacting with someone famous was very cool. Asking a musician what something means and getting a reply and then a little back and forth… Twitter was an amazing thing for awhile.

Trump Extremists Make New Calls to Hang Mike Pence: 'Watch His Toes Dangle' (www.rollingstone.com)

The top post at the online forum TheDonald on Wednesday morning was titled “Fuck Mike Pence. 🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻.” And chilling calls for violence against the former vice president were rising to the top of the comments thread....

The Russian angle is the only plausible shadow factor. It’s almost transparent if you’re being honest with yourself.

There’s many professionals that continue to work well beyond 65. Most doctors and lawyers for example. Plus independent business owners and sports coaches… List can go on.

Basically it’s none of the governments business if someone doesn’t want to stop at 65 and fuck off if you’re suggesting the government should be enforcing some age limits on it. It’s the opposition that is responsible for building a strong enough case against old politicians that force them to retire. Not the government.

Sorry man, I’m your same age but I’m hopeful that I can retire early.

My wife’s aunt loves these things. She will talk your ear off about it. She knows about strategy for each one and has her favorites. And then you see her at one and it is only serious business. No time for chatting!

thisbenzingring ,

You should have been hanging out with your friends, doing sports, doing art, doing things that only come to people under age. The thing you will pine for when you’re old is your salad days. Those days were swindled from you so someone could find cheaper labor.

Paul Reubens died, he is famous for his Peewee Herman character. Laraine Newman, she did Saturday Night Live and other projects with that group of people. I can’t remember John’s last name but he had some success in movies

I always like to see it as a woman breaking the surface of water from underneath. Raising her head and pushing upwards, water flowing over her.

I like to call it whats its been called for millennia, Tahoma or simply the Mountain. Almost everyone in Western Washington will know what you are talking about if you just say the Mountain. “Oh look the mountain is out today”

A girl I dated sold a set of modeling photos to one of the clip art sites in the early 2000s. She was in a movie too, but all of that right after we broke up.

The photos of her from the photoshoot would show up in weird ways. She was all over the internet! She was an advertisement on the front page of msnbc for a while. But the real kicker was seeing her photo on the wall of a futon store. Like frickin huge. The store was on a corner of a busy intersection. I could see the picture on the wall as I turned the corner. WTF One time I had to stop and go inside just to check if I was making it up. My wife agreed it was her!

And for like 10 years I would see it used in random places.

She was and probably is super cute so not surprised she had some luck selling her appearance but JFC I’m pretty sure some dudes fell in love with her. I did to but at least she was interested in me too

This gave me a giggling fit. Can’t say I have ever thought about it but now that I have, I might need to play some pranks on a couple nieces and nephews

She’s cute but I only looked at her probably NSFW Instagram www.instagram.com/sierraxrain/

the Toothbrush mustache

Popularized by Charlie Chaplin and Oliver Hardy (of Laurel and Hardy) but then WWII happened and it became the Hitler mustache. That dude ruined everything he touched!

I work with librarians and I have heard them say that sometimes an old worn out book is just a bunch of paper. Would you keep a bunch of paper lying around? Librarians throw out a lot of books.

It’s not so much that anyone can intercept it, it’s more that the sender just blasts it and no acknowledgement so there’s lots of potential for loss

From my experience, brother in law hates it. Wants to cancel but the kids (2 preteens) watch it a lot and he just doesn’t want to use something new that he has to relearn to be comfortable leaving them alone with.

I took back a half acre of those things. Believe me when I say that I am 100% with you. I wish a blight wipes them out so much. If you are able, digging up the ball root makes removing them easier. They are almost impossible to eradicate but if you can get the root ball out, they are totally weakened. I bought a pawn shop weed eater and those plastic blades. I went through so many blades and the weed eater died a sad long death.

I hate those plants like nothing else

Firefox+AdNauseam

Watching the numbers on each page go up is entertainment enough. Best part is that it stops the ad popping in the background so your page rarely jumps

Junk data that costs the advertisement without a return on investment

thisbenzingring ,

It’s different from the technical end but it works by clicking the ads and filling them with junk to cost. It essentially removes the ad for you

thisbenzingring ,

If you’re blocking their ads and not logged in, you are costing them.
