  • At this point I can only assume that Microsoft is actively trying to punish me for using their products.

  • I grew up when you'd read the same shampoo bottle 10 times every time you took a shit, hoping you'd find some new detail you once missed.

    Tell me your family didn't have a subscription to National Geographic without telling me your family didn't have a subscription to National Geographic.

  • Police and TSA accuse Nancy Mace of 'loudly cursing' at them in airport meltdown

    Jump

  • Slackers used it, but that story is an urban legend that goes back long before that. When I was a little kid in 80s my dad told me that exact story about a guy who supposedly did that at his college, and he went to college in the 60s.

  • What is a thing you can fix with another thing that is not the intended thing, but it's actually better than the intended thing in some senses?

    Jump

  • Using Shoe Goo to hold a patch in jeans. It's orders of magnitude better than those crappy iron-in patches that usually fall off after a couple times through the wash. It lasts longer than needle and thread because it gets into the weave, stabilizes and reinforces the weakened denim around the hole/tear.

    Shoe Goo is great for fixing lots of stuff. It's basically liquid duct tape. Of all the things I've attempted to fix with Shoe Goo, the only ones that failed were, ironically, shoes.

  • Why liberals, people of color and LGBTQ Americans say they're buying guns

  • Big difference between having cops, and having cops that you can trust to protect you.

    Also, even if for argument's sake we assume that the police will act in your best interest when they show up, not everyone lives in a large city where you're never more than five minutes away from a cop. The US is huge, and the vast majority of it is rural and isolated. If you live in one of those places help from police might be hours away rather than minutes. You're on your own until they show up. If they show up at all.

  • No vampire wombats that we know of.

    It's entirely possible that every scientist that went to study them is now a bloodless dessicated corpse slowly turning to jerky under the Australian sun.

  • Ok. 3-2-1, let's jam!

  • Pulling that stupid ahegao face. I don't know who that's for, but it's definitely not me.

  • Get ready to see ads on your… Samsung refrigerator

  • On the plus side, considering the average lifespan of Samsung appliances, you probably won't have to put up with it for very long.

  • US considers banning Iranians from shopping at Costco during UN meeting

  • We can't let them learn the secrets of our $4.99 rotisserie chickens!

  • Trump threatens to put ‘regular military’ in Chicago to ‘straighten it out’

    Jump

  • It's supposed to blow through the restrictions of the Posse Comitatus Act and normalize military violence against US citizens; or against anyone who disagrees with, or tries to resist, the Trump administration.

  • So the recent hate towards Pedro Pascal is JK and her loyalists making shit up because he spoke out that she's an awful person?

    Jump

  • Pedro Pascal's sister is a trans woman. He has been publicly very vocal on the subject of trans rights and inclusion. Consequently, a lot of transphobes, chuds, and miscellaneous fascists have been targeting him for a while and trying to smear his reputation any way they can. I don't really pay much attention to celebrity stuff so I don't know to what extent JK Rowling is personally involved in that, but given that she has been a very outspoken anti-trans bigot for some time, I would not be surprised to learn she was egging her followers on to that end.

  • Apart, low in cholesterine

  • All these fools trying to add hydrogen to water when they should be focusing on dechlorinating table salt.

  • Trump officials release FBI records on MLK Jr despite his family’s opposition

  • I remember like 15 or 20 years ago the popular thing was printable papercraft doohickeys that you'd cut out and glue together with aluminum foil on the backside that were like little satellite dishes that mounted on the antennas that were supposed to boost/aim your wifi signal. I gave them a try, but if they made a difference it wasn't big enough to be noticeable.

  • A Conservative’s Plan to Sell Public Lands Faces MAGA Pushback | They love hunting, fishing and conservatism. And they hate a plan by a conservative senator to sell millions of acres of public lands.

  • Because one of the many things shoe-horned into this bill was the removal of suppressors and short-barreled rifles from the NFA, this has been the subject of conversation in a lot of the gun subs on Reddit. It's been fun watching some of the boot-lickingest right-wing gun owners absolutely shitting all over this bill on account of how bad it is. Even the AR15 sub, which doesn't usually allow political threads, was like, fuck it, we're leaving this one up because everyone needs to know what absolute garbage this bill is.
