I turn my back for a minute, and the kids bring home some sugar cane from the community garden at church. Guess I better figure out what to do with the stuff. Probably NOT make our own granulated sugar unless someone else wants to spend 6,000 hours stirring a boiling pot. I thought I read it could b...

I don't have much to add that hasn't been said already, as usual. But I can't help but think about the contrast between characters like Musk/Trump and, say, my late aunt. These guys were born with wealth, everyone knows their name, they have the whole goddamned world in their hands, and they're stil...

You say necroposting, I say thread recycling! I mentioned hearing a frog chirping in the wisteria growing in our backyard. Silversong said it sounded like it'd make a nice hanafuda card, so I had to try. https://brontosin.space/system/media_attachments/files/111/474/827/566/122/615/original/8f38b187...

Apologies if this has already been shared, but

Apologies if I posted or shared or talked about this one a million times already

technically I have "forests" near me if you consider this forests I visited my mom over the weekend. She lives right next door to a walnut orchard that... the kids could have some fun there, especially since it's all overgrown with large tree sprouts and bushes. Hell, I wish we were allow...

Our long national nightmare is finally different!

...oh, skip the tweet about Palestine?

Alright, let's try this again and...

I think they're fine??

“Oh my god, it looks like an engagement photo shoot,”

In legal terms, I'd say it was negligent homicide, which, crucially, is grouped with 1st & 2nd degree murder in most countries, unlike manslaughter. I was thinking about Derek Chauvin. I think second-degree murder is where you don't intend to kill someone, but you deliberately act in a way that...

This is still the thread about stupid shit happening on and/or being done to Twitter? I ask because The Big Man seems to have removed captions from posts with links. So now instead of "Trump Eaten By Wild Boars" and a picture of his stupid face, you just get his stupid face and a domain li...

It also showed up in The Dark Knight as a fun way to snag foreign citizens from foreign soil without having to deal with obstructions like "extradition treaties" or "due process"] I never really thought about it much, but it's kind of crazy how illegal everything in that movie w...

In a rare bit of fairness to my school... a problem with history is there's so damn MUCH of it. There's plenty of interesting stuff, but you're trying to teach it to like seven hundred kids, and you probably don't have enough time to do it right. And since this is America, your school gives you appr...

"Phew, I got the Sea Spider! That sure wasn't easy! But what do we have next? "Steal Survey Data" for 100,000? The last mission was for 330,000, so it can't be THAT hard." Can't be THAT hard... be THAT hard... THAT hard... hard... echo... echo... I'm kind of liking the variety of...

This is just bugging me for some reason: Google Image Search for "Tianamen Square Tank Man" Turns Up AI-Generated Selfie . By my clicking around, it shows up higher or lower by computer logic I won't pretend to understand. Either way, it sucks and I hate it, and I feel you should hate it t...

So, we're gonna charge you based on some funny math we won't explain to you?
