  • You can't... Fool... Me... I won't c...lick it!

    Wow, they're right... End of era, folks, he finally gave us up.

  • Even more concerning, there's only one bed...

  • Are we just making up language rules as we go?

    Jump

  • I just wish they'd taught it as a skill when I took languages in school. Reading became sooooo much easier once I understood.

  • Elon musk to spend $100m backing iowa republicans in midterm push

    Jump

  • Like buying votes during the last election?

  • Romantic words were incorporated differently into other languages as the Roman Empire's influence spread. Words like inflammable have more direct Latin roots than words like indebt. So where Inflammable comes directy from the latin inflammo, indebt came from old French and middle English, going from something like endetter and endetten, using the root word dete and dette, but stemming from the root Latin word, debitum. Then en became in at some point.

    That's how I understood it anyway through a very short amount of google searching. Anyone feel free to correct me.

  • Trump says Greenland will be under US control by the time he leaves office

    Jump

  • Just to spite him, the day after we elect a new president, I'd love for some sort of ceremony where Denmark and the US exchange Greenland back and forth. Something like the whiskey war with Canada.

  • Why do they always do this

    Jump

  • When people tell me AI will eventually replace everyone

    Jump

  • No, what will happen instead is they'll get rid of half of the nurses and the ones they keep will be responsible for 16 million things. My agency is going through it right now. They fired one of our APNs and gave all her duties to our other one. She's already overwhelmed to the point of crying in the office.

  • Fauci grew annoyed by ‘obnoxious adolescent’ Trump as Covid spiraled, diary reveals

    Jump

  • You don't need a diary to know that, there's plenty of video evidence where he's obviously sick of all the bullshit. Totally had the "how am I the only educated person in this room?" vibe toward the end.

  • Scumbag tape

    Jump

  • Pulls out pocket knife again because I can't find the line on the extra roll

    If my grandfather taught me anything, it was the importance of knowing when to start over, as long as you persist, until it's done right.

  • AOC says Mitch McConnell should resign if he cannot provide health update

    Jump

  • He is filled with turtle meat!

  • Scumbag tape

    Jump

  • Jokes on you!

    Pulls out pocket knife

  • Which key loses the most paint tells you a lot about that person…

    Jump

  • "Not too long ago, my ex-girlfriend told me her new boyfriend was complaining that her back door was too tight. When I went over, I didn't have any problem slipping right in. I even tried a few times and couldn't figure out the issue. Well, she recently sent me a photo, and I think I see the problem..."

  • Looks like we are taking the long way around.

    Jump

  • That was my first thought too. I just reread Skeleton Crew a few weeks ago. Mrs. Todd's Shortcut, if anyone's interested. Going through the dark tower series again now and really love how even short stories like Mrs. Todd get tied in.

  • The gas is cheap. The Trump administration isn’t saying who’s paying for it.

    Jump

  • We're stealing it, obviously... From Russian shadow fleet tankers, Venezuela, and Iran. Trump hasn't even been quiet about it, not that he ever is...

  • Removed

    When I'm reminded that I'm a woman in her thirties...

    Jump

  • That's alright, cause the guy who just took your order just responded with "I love you."

  • Mitch McConnell Was Found Unconscious Before He Was Rushed to Hospital

    Jump

  • His operator just walked away. Even puppeteers have bathroom emergencies.
