МЯУУУУ! he/they. Sometimes feel like a she. But only sometimes.
You can take comfort in knowing they've all breathed in a fair amount of asbestos during the demolition.

As a kid (a very long time ago), we had Big Red in my church's soda machine in Little Rock. Now that I think about it, I don't remember seeing it anywhere else.

Maybe the pastor was addicted and would special order it? No idea. One of the minor mysteries of childhood.

I'm glad you posted this. We had it in Arkansas too. Was just trying to think of the red, sickly-sweet soda I had as a kid but couldn't remember the name.

This winter I have a possum who sneaks in via the cat door. Eats a bunch of cat food and leaves. Quite fearless by possum standards. When I walk into the kitchen, he sullenly and very slowly will waddle outside. And then comes back the second my back is turned.

Kinda like this little guy.

Went to a midnight showing on opening day. Lots of mega fans. Standing ovations & cheers to the opening logo & scroll. Quieted down within the first five minutes. By the end, when everyone was filing out, the crowd was dead silent.

Never seen anything lose its audience so completely like this.

I'm just happy young people are keeping the tradition going with identical in-appearance USB C cables which have greatly different capabilities.

As someone who did SBC / IFB in Arkansas, this hits a little too hard.

If the buried KJV was on golden plates, then this could be a crossover episode with the mormons.

At any rate, don't ever show this to the IFB. Or, hell, show it to them. They'll take it as gospel truth.

For those people in a red area in a red state, I'd highly suggest finding your local group. Does wonders for your mood when you find similarly minded people working together. And you will quickly get an outsized voice in the party as a bonus.

You can somewhat escape this in Skyrim by using one of the alternate start mods where you skip the Helgen intro.

No one knows you're dragonborn. NPCs treat you as mostly just some person. It's interesting to me the writers & designers took this into account.

As I understand it, System Data is a catch-all category. Includes files stored in your user's Library from various apps.

Try OmniDiskSweeper to get a better view of how your storage is used. It scans your drives and will show exactly what's taking up space.

As someone who was once an evangelical kid, I feel fairly certain the evangelicals will go to some degree of apeshit over this. This is perfectly in their wheelhouse.

Though if Trump ends up endorsing it, then they'll be in the awkward position of yelling "The Beast is Good! Take the mark!"

I love this! Takes me back.

Really like the detail of the desk's sliding keyboard shelf. How it's not being used for the KB. I had something similar back in the mid 2000s and never used it either.

Also love the red text. I can almost hear it. The orc growling: "I can't do that! ... Out of range!"

Happy to hear they all get to ride John McCain's tire swing again. I don't know what Biden was thinking. His team didn't even have a tire swing.

Not only the best cover of all time, it's also a very good album.

A good source for wallpapers is unsplash.com Everything is well tagged so it's not difficult to find a setting or mood you like.

If I'm looking for something specific (like Martian landscapes), I use img search with img size set to high. Sometimes difficult to find 4k this way though.

I'm happy for your country and more than a little envious.

Don't look into it. Just assume felching is a silly word describing something cute muppets or ferrets do. And leave it at that.

Seems to be a steady trickle of diehard MAGAs leaving the fold. Suddenly realizing things aren't good. Will be interesting to see how the trickle affects the floor, and if the trickle becomes a flood.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Starmer numbers in a year or two.
