Did I read it right that he got 25 years, and she got 110? And the 110 was a reduction after testifying against him?

xorollo ,

Lol, thanks. I read the article, but not the headline, apparently.

xorollo ,

Thanks, that’s much clearer.

Add dirt daubers to the list. They’re my favorite. They build mud tunnels for their eggs and leave live paralyzed spiders in there for the babies to feed on when they hatch. They ignore humans.

Omg how did you get a screenshot of your comment with the screenshot in it? Ahhhhhhhhhh

xorollo ,

I see a gummy bear that fell in the dirt

Curious how that last paycheck is gonna work. Does she get paid overtime for the weekend?

I like free books from my library and usually read on my phone. I like that I can try a book, and if it’s garbage, I have zero sunk costs. Just move on and read something else.

That’s not very helpful. It’s always the mens bathroom line that’s too long at work. The woman basically gets her own.

xorollo ,

It’s fine. Now you can hire another two women and they still get their own. 👍

I just spent $66 on 9 pairs of underwear and 6 pairs of socks.

xorollo ,

It was two packs of Hanes and UA socks that were on clearance. I had sticker shock at the total, but it guess it works out to around $20ish per pack which is about on par with my expectations. My kid is 16, and if I didn’t intervene, he’d shove his foot into moldy old socks from when he was 10 and never complain. So I try to get him to go clean out his drawers as part of our back to school shopping.

xorollo ,

No Costco, but we have Sam’s. I’m usually better at seeking deals, but I happened to have my kid with me when we were running another errand, so I didn’t get to do my usual strategic pricing. I just had no idea underclothes were one of the things I need to be strategic about. Anyway, I hope his butt is comfortable this school year!

Id love to find your stash in the fallout universe

I see two people shitting their pants 0/10

They always said not to make that face or you’d get stuck like that.

I just left Lemmy to go find this link and just found my way back to this post. I second reading the comic, and I’m going to go read more now. It wasn’t done when I last read.

We make the table, so we get to decide what’s on it. But don’t make the table from trees, the ents get mad.

What is the actual point of a bra?

Let me preface this by saying I am a man, and smoked a little too much, so I’m sitting here thinking… what is or was the original purpose of a bra? Weight support? Vanity? Covering the nips so people’s eyes met your eyes and you can have a normal conversation? Like what’s it all about?

xorollo ,

Ok, yes, but also with all of the modern advancements in textiles please.

IRS enters the chat

I do this. All. The. Time. Did it today. I tend to notice it and fix before send.

xorollo ,

And? How is your first post coming? It’s been five hours. Is your friend OK?

xorollo ,

Ahhhhhhhh, I’m still holding out hope

xorollo ,

I thought this first too. But then I remembered an interaction where one colleague of mine told another pair who were speaking another language that “secrets don’t make friends” or some such. I think it was intended as a jokey way to express that he was uncomfortable with the conversation that he couldn’t understand. He also joked that they were probably talking poorly of him. I noticed this person was normalizing controlling the discussion by throwing negative or secretive intentions onto the others’ discussions. In reality, they’re just friends discussing something in their primary language.

Anyway, long story long, I don’t think this colleague would tell us he has a problem with others speaking a language besides English, but then he’d probably follow that up with a bunch of clarifiers that indicate he does in fact have a problem with it.

xorollo ,

Yeah, pretty rude if they do that to exclude you specifically, for sure. Im sorry you had colleagues do this to you. Work is much better with good people.

Spectrum Call Center in Charlotte, NC Reportedly Provided Fried Chicken and Watermelon to Employees for Juneteenth (thencbeat.com)

“We want to acknowledge some feedback received regarding our Juneteenth celebration,” Pezzuto said in his letter obtained by The North Carolina Beat. “Although our intent was to celebrate this nationally recognized day, some of you voiced your concerns regarding the associated food choices.”...

Yeah, that looks like it’s been sitting out a week.

Older gen alpha are 12-- but all of the references are from current social media influencers. You can’t even “officially” access you tube until your account says you’re 13.

xorollo ,

Don’t worry, they’ll insert it all into captchas and make us label all their data soon.

xorollo ,

Dangit. What’s the replacement then?!

xorollo ,

Thanks for the recommendations. Both of those look really clean and much better than nova.

I’d like to know if there’s an XKCD about an XKCD that’s no longer relevant.

xorollo ,

So, this baby has teeth (and babies of this age do not usually). I can’t tell if we are all just unnerved and not noticing, or ignoring for the benefit of the joke. So this is for whoever falls in the first camp.

Similar story. Few years ago in a previous life, I was a teacher. Our administration would make an announcement in the morning that we had to check uniforms in first period and send non-compliant students to the office. Kids were generally in uniform, but a lot of the rules were nitpicky. One of the uniform rules was that students had to wear a certain color sock of a certain length. I don’t care what socks kids are wearing so never checked. They’re under their pants. Our assistant principal would stand in the hallway and check uniforms. When he found kids out of uniform, he would figure out who their first period teacher was and send a nastygram. Imagine living a life where you allow your blood pressure to rise because of the kind of socks on somebody else’s feet.

I got this as a fax, and it said I had to mail it to at least seven other people to be blessed.
