Stack it well, everyone judges the books on the shelf. I love seeing what books people keep.

I am quite uncomfortable with the realisation that I agree with Kyle on something. I need a shower or something.

Those elephant stools are very nice, and I found the cat.

Anyone who utters such nonsense should be removed from duty and put into the brig pending psychological assessment. It's straight up delusional.

Don't go looking for this on foot. You have a good chance of being struck by lightning.

Physics Girl just posted a new physics video. Diana has been suffering covid related chronic fatigue for years. Go learn about neutrinos and give her some support.

I asked our Prime Minister to condemn an illegal act. And for the other person, yes I know a lot more than the average person about Pine Gap and Exmouth. It's my profession.

How about you condemn the illegal attack on Iran? Sure their government sucked, but that's no reason to target a school.

They support racism, and asked the ice question framed as if they didn't.
I'd contact peta and Greenpeace asking about how to make a large donation and leave their number on the contact form so they get spammed.

You won't even need to look when screwing the gyprock on. Just slam them in anywhere, you'll hit something. 😆

Comic strip representing the significance of numbers as shapes arranged into a triangle when stacked smallest to largest or largest to smallest. With USA format the least significant value is in the middle for no reason.

That's a turn around and go back to bed moment. At least it wasn't a plumbed-in fridge.

Anyone who uses mm/dd/yyyy is wrong. Don't promulgate the stupid.
I don't care if small to big or big to small, it puts the magnitudes in order or it gets the hose.

I never smoked much, but I still take smoke breaks. I move outside, breathe deeply and stare at something letting my mind wander for a couple of minutes. It's nowhere near the same affect, but it does something. I must say sipping Kombucha with a thousand yard stare just doesn't have the gravitas.

That's an absolutely beautiful picture. I'll try to find a high res one for my work computer.

Read The Light Of Other Days by Stephen Baxter and Arthur C Clarke. It looks at a society where all privacy is gone.

I woke in a sweat from a nightmare at 11:30 last night at something very much like that. But it was 6 of them riding on top of an armored bulldozer picking people off. It ended like that but I was unarmed. No idea where that came from.
