“To prove that you are human, donate $$$ to Doctors Without Borders.”

“To prove that you are human, register to vote.”

I remember Wil Wheaton saying this in The Guild, but was he also quoting Rand at the time?

Did you catch all-despising baby skull last night?

But more doctors smoke Camels!

Except double slashes makes the underscores disappear.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So… it looks like adding a slash before the slash and before each underscore does the trick. Thanks!

You know, I think it’s something with the formatting here where it makes the slash disappear. Not sure what syntax I’d need to use to make the whole thing appear properly.

Put phone down on wireless charger. Charging notification lights up. Go to sleep. Wake up. Check phone. Is at 2%. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Fucking. Wireless. Chargers.

In the book Dr. No, his briefing is “This important intelligence officer in the Caribbean has gone missing. Most likely he’s run off with his secretary. Here’s your gun. Go deal with this.”

X-TREME

In any sane society, closing a private prison would be cause for celebration.

I’m curious: what would that mean, within Brazil’s borders? Would they be able to prevent Starlink from being used? Broadcast a Starlink jamming signal over the whole country? Or turn it into a diplomatic issue, with the US State Department getting involved?

I mean… some kink shaming if you’re into necrophilia.

The difficulty in locating the original is that Republicans are ALWAYS trying to destroy public education and public libraries, so it’s kind of like trying to Google John Smith.

Not to mention the security that comes from being able to not pay if you get scammed for whatever reason. I paid for a course at a community college with a credit card, but then my schedule changed so I tried to cancel the class before it even started. The college gave me a whole runaround, and whether it was willful or just simple incompetence, I wasn’t able to get a refund. So I called my credit card company and explained the situation to them, and they resolved the whole thing for me. Sometimes even mentioning that you’ll refer such a problem to the fraud department at your credit card company is enough to get someone to back down and give you a refund.

Credit cards have issues, especially if you have problems with using them responsibly, but that’s one particular way in which they can save you a lot of headache.

So help me there was some big deal right wing personality who talked about how the government shouldn’t subsidize education by saying that when he was a kid he wanted an education so he… went down to the public library and read books there. Not a hint of irony. Can’t remember exactly who it was, but the dissonance stuck with me.

Such magnificent floof…

First devouring all of Fantasia, now this.
