The 3 bullies from The Simpsons pointing at Bart and asking "Nice tools Simpson. Did your cow make them for you?" in the top frame. In the bottom frame Bart is holding the saw cow tool in his right hand, the rake cow tool in his left, the blob cow tool with the handle is on the yard, and behind him the cow from the Cow Tools comic is watching on from inside behind the bay windows and bart is responding "Of course she did. Who else would?"

I live somewhere where it is a legal requirement to provide two paid 15 minute breaks during a working day and boy is it easy to forget those, and it does make a difference to joy and work output if I take them.

So while Home Assistant may have its flaws, I am dead impressed that I powered down a VM in 2021, powered it up this week, and was able to do online upgrades of the HA OS and the application with not a single glitch.

There are not many free or paid products that can achieve that.

It’s supposed to be where you started playing but it only includes NSW and Queensland, so taxpayers are paying for a game no Kiwi player can play in.

Can also do state of emergency declarations as year to date (to 15 Feb). In showing it that way I am including fires and floods with sever weather as climate connected. I also checked that it has all been under the same emergency declaration powers through the period, and it has.

Franzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon.

Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.

That old saw about how "good times make weak men" is true in the sense that stable times with material abundance create reactionaries who want to destroy the systems that protect them because they're too sheltered and stupid to understand that things can get meaningfully worse.

I don't think a lot of people appreciate how much of their overall lifestyle and relative certainty is backstopped by a steady, boring stability of systems they don't understand or even realize exist.

True decadence looks like people who are three generations removed from the cultural memory of polio refusing to vaccinate their children against deadly communicable diseases because they don't like needles and don't think there will be any consequences, not queer

So much of our present crisis is coddled, ignorant, and short sighted people tearing down the institutions that protect them because they don’t understand that bad things can happen.

Subdued Dudes with Loud Suits is an oil painting that depicts a pair of brodalisques reclining in a moody man cave with a blue rug. The man luxuriating on the dark sofa wears a tiger striped suit and poses with his hands behind his head. The dude in the foreground is seated on the floor with his right knee bent, and he is clad in a leopard print suit. They’re both draped with white fabrics.

Would you rather wear a tiger stripe suit or a leopard print suit?
