Bald Trump was hilarious!
He was bald once before, in episode 2 when the hair left his head while he was sleeping.
There is a non-zero chance I was drinking when I saw that and don’t remember.
Hell, I was drinking when I wrote it, voiced it, animated it and it premiered here; I get it bro.
I gotta say. Modelo Negra is really delicious.
It’s the only good one. The Especial is horrid swill.
Well I’ve moved on to Miller Lite at this point:)
Oh my GOD!
Hey, Red Dog isn’t distributed everywhere, so not everyone can enjoy the good stuff like me.
Yes, Aluminum pint bottle. The best cheap beer:)
That is my cheap beer of choice too. I have upgraded to Mich Ultra for the extra 3 bucks a case in these hard times because I assume I will be dead soon.
Miller High Life is just as
cheapeconomical and you don’t run the risk of having girls laugh at you for drinking a ‘lite’ beer.That has actually never happened. In my entire life.
It’s the only good one.
I, too, like Modelo Negro. It’s the only Mexican beer I like, besides Tecate. But I only had Tecate while already tipsy.
Amusing to me: My Columbian neighbors always have cases of regular Modelo and Corona in their garbage. They go through that shit like crazy.
I like it. Although I like the normy Modelo too. Prefer Pacifico to both as far as Mexican beer goes.
Drinking a Pacifico Clara right now. I hate Modelo Especial, it has a nasty sort of aftertaste to it. But really like the Negra.
Dos Equis is probably the worst of the worst. It is like someone decided to put essence-of-barn into a bottle.
Agreed, I also enjoy a Tecate on occasion.
It is.
It is good, but Modelo used to be way less expensive.
He kept us out of work.
Sigh.
*dark chuckle*
“Re-elect Donald Trump. He kept us out of work.” Nice touch, although I am not sure he is the one who closed all the businesses.
I dont think Trump closed anything. It was all governor’s yankin their power-peepees
Don’t forget the mayors. We are at no gatherings greater than 5 in my city.
I think the only family on the street that was willing to play with my kids will no longer do so due to the new order. I think my wife thinks they are afraid of being NARC’ed on
It was all governor’s yankin their power-peepees

Look Fat, the “President” gets blamed for and gets credit for everything that happens on his watch whether he has shit to do with it or not. That’s just science.
Heh…..I did a batch of pizza dough today in anticipation of finishing alterations on Frankenoven. Instead of 1/2 sesame, 1/2 normal I doubled the oil and a T of each sesame and olive. I find this gives a better chew to the crust. It is sitting in the fridge for a few day ferment.
Yeah…in my case, it was that assclown Tom Wolf.
*spits on ground*
To clarify…that assclown shut down our business as nonessential. I’m still working and hopefully will be until we get to officially reopen. My coworkers? Not so “lucky”.
Sorry.
Sununu just shut down short term rentals in NH claiming that hotel operators “asked for it” and that none are asking to stay open. None want to make money? Horseshit.
No, but they don’t want their competitors to make make money if they shutdown because of slow business. Just like car dealerships on Sundays with Blue Laws.
Yep–never underestimate the desire of stupid people to cut off body parts to spite other body parts
I guess I’m fortunate enough to have apps that are used in medical research. I’ve had to intervene 2 times in the last couple of days for studies that were Cov19 related and cannot be held up for any reason like ‘that’s the way the app works, on purpose’.
I don’t know anyone personally, who is out of work, yet, or who’s not retired and do it doesn’t matter.
The one thing that really bothered me is when our local deli had to shut down and they’d been in business for 59 years. I talked to the current owner a lot and he looked worried last time I saw him. Now their doors are closed for good. Very sad stuff.
IT’S FOR THEIR OWN GOOD, TRUMPTARD! DON’T YOU EVEN SCIENCE!1!1!11!!! #squarethecircleorsomething
But, he ain’t stoppin them. If you let Governor Hitler start up the gas chambers you’re pretty shitty as well.
I am not sure that is apples to apples. But I agree if he would spend more time encouraging the non plague rampant states to open up but he has governors calling for a national lock down so infected people don’t travel to their states. My most favorite scenario is he brings on someone who can articulate how fucking wrong the models were and gov’s shutting down their states was really a poorly thought out over reaction. I am not holding my breath though.

At least dingo didn’t get her.
Im not going to say maybe they weren’t negligent, but Ive never lived there- so what do I know? But: “She was released when a piece of Azaria’s clothing was found near a dingo lair, and new inquests were opened. In 2012, 32 years after Azaria’s death, the Chamberlains’ version of events was officially supported by a coroner. ”
Sounds Richard Jewel-esque to me.
Is that movie good? I haven’t seen it yet.
Richard Jewell? Yes. I can’t believe that is the same guy from Cobra Kai.
I MUST watch Cobra Kai. I can’t remember how many episodes of Season 1 I saw (all of them?), but shit, YES, I loved them.

Dios mio.
I dont know if you saw the end of the dead thread, but I have a friend in BK that ostensibly had the Chink Croup, and recovered. He’s a legit preacher, has a church on 5th Ave. If you ever feel like hearing stories about me (when he was my intern), HMU.
You were a preacher?
I am, according to the state of Ohio. Ordained by the Glorious and Sanctified Universal Life Church (of Modesto, Cali)
My former intern (the guy I mentioned) was a junior engineering student at U Cincinnati working for me when had the calling. So he dropped out and went to Cumberland Bible College. Now he’s in Brooklyn with the CoVID.
I hope he gets better.
Wow.
True story: my wife (girlfriend at the time) got called for jury duty for that case. She was so relieved that they picked the jury members before her name came up.
If you want a license to be stupid, become a celebrity. It’s automagical.
Im sure she’s a hit in prison.
I wasn’t referring to her, but to Harrelson. What a maroon. Seems to be a common thing with that bunch.
Poodle?

That happens to me too.

Video footage on the internet, so you know it’s true.

Somebody sent that crap to my wife and she tried to show it to me.
I was less than polite about it. That’s got to be one of the dumbest conspiracy theories ever to exist. It makes the chemtrails nut jobs look smart.

I’m taking my smoked pork shoulder from the Webber and making tamales tomorrow. I only made them once before, but they should be tasty.
Mmm tamales. The lady who cleans our house makes them in banana leafs rather than corn husks. They are amazing.
I don’t like the texture of corn tortillas, that probably makes me a white supremacist.
I’d say that makes you woke for not culturally appropriating foods that don’t belong to your culture.
Wait are you white and vote conservative? If so then yes you’re a white supremacist.
White, male, conservative, Christian? Any of those will place you in the basket of deplorables, and this pandemic is all your fault, you and your orange leader.
The Chicoms? Totally innocent, you racist!
I can’t even with this…and I’m low carb!
Corn>flour tortillas.
Dude.
You Northerners. SMH Tamales aren’t made with tortillas.
Masa. Not tortillas. Filled with smoked pulled pork dipped in chili sauce.
Yes, the masa ends up with the same texture. I don’t like it.
Sounds excellent. I have made a similar version more than a few times. Throw in a can of Adobo peppers . I cook it down a bit and chuck the jalepenos. A big hunk of one of those is even too hot for me.
^^^^ corn husks
And tamales are a pain in the ass, which is why you get friends and make 4 dozen at a time.
Isn’t Ohio arresting tamale party attendees?
Tragically today the Cincinnati Health Department reported the deaths of two City residents who had tested positive for COVID-19. These are the first confirmed deaths in the City of Cincinnati related to COVID-19.
On March 22, 2020, the Director of Health for the State of Ohio issued a “Stay at Home” order, mandating that ALL persons stay at home or their place of residence unless they are engaged in Essential Activities, Essential Governmental Functions, or to operate Essential Businesses and Operations.
Those found in violation of this order are receiving warning notices from our officers.
Violators are directed to return to their home or place of residence immediately. Those who refuse to comply or are found violating the order again, can be cited and/or arrested.
Violations can receive up to 90 days in jail, a fine of as much as $750.00, or both.
DO YOUR PART, TO STAY 6 FEET APART
BE A PART OF THE SOLUTION
SOCIAL DISTANCING WILL SAVE LIVES!
No mention of their ages?
Notice that it also doesn’t say they died of Covid:
who had tested positive for COVID-19
first confirmed deaths in the City of Cincinnati related to COVID-19
I have to suspect that if the deceased had actually died of the disease they might have phrased that differently. But hey, any excuse to pass out $750 fines and lock up people who dare to go to over to their friends and families homes.
My county has started reporting that way…”COVID 19 associated deaths.” There are still only three, and we are next to a very large city.
Died OF CoVID and died WITH CoVid are 2 very different things everyone isnt in a hurry to report.
This is exactly why the Chicom flu death rate in Germany is so low. They required logical analysis, including all existing conditions, on the death report to explain how the patient died of the cause being presented.
Yet they use 3 different fasteners on the same part on their cars.
At least they are all metric fasteners.
for that matter, why arent they testing for herpes and syphilis, which can also contribute to death?
Let alone some HPV and throat cancer.
$750 dollar fines you can pay up-front, or you can retain Cunningham, Eric Deters, or Bill’s buddy Randy Freaking for $1500 to fight it.

“And tamales are a pain in the ass, which is why you get friends and make 4 dozen at a time.”
Or you bake them as a Tamale pie – make it about the size of a small loaf of bread using a bread pan. Not really inauthentic as some places in Mexico make huge Tamale-like pies about 2 feet in diameter with a layer of banana leaves over smoldering coals and buried for a couple hours.
Thats something Ive never heard of…..TIL on Glibs _____
I used to like you but now i just can’t.
Nice. I am a big fan of tamales.
At times I feel like I’m in a bad dream and I’m going to wake up and it’ll be Dec 31, 2019. The only sanity is the Glibitorium and you folks. Reality is tough, man. Market’s way up today, maybe the market knows something. Then I get an email from friends and their kid(s) got laid off. Hold on, isn’t the market up and shouldn’t companies be hiring? No one, other than here is questioning the crap out of the political class.
I got my property tax bill today, the proposed tax and today’s bill are different and not in my favor. I guess they’re going to need more money to pay all these bills that are accruing. Its already started, apparently, that didn’t take long.
The markets up because New York’s curve is flattening and the government revised death projections to be much milder. So maybe we can end this bull crap eventually.

A lot of state governors and sleazeball WHO spokespeople are going to be awfully sad. Maybe they can read 1984 and fap to the glory days gone by?

I keep telling you all that Loki the Trickster is the only true god, but you never seem to want to accept it.
IBLEEVE! IBLEEVE! HEAL ME, PASTOR!
Just so there are no misunderstandings, this is an ass-eating invitation, right?
Isn’t that how all Loki-based worship services start?
I snort-laughed.
Otherwise, I got nuthin.
“I keep telling you all that Loki the Trickster is the only true god, but you never seem to want to accept it.”
HM,
if you are a devotee of “Loki the Trickster… the only true god”, I recommend that you not be surprised when other individuals doubt the information that you might provide.
On a more serious note: Doubt is inherent, is it not?
That’s an excellent point, Charles. The everyday application of Fortean beliefs resembles Pyrrhonic thought.
Mister HM, you use your tongue prettier than a $20 whore
“That’s an excellent point, Charles. The everyday application of Fortean beliefs resembles Pyrrhonic thought.”
What are your thoughts regarding the Stoics (let us limit ourselves to Stoicism, if you please)?
I am also interested in reading other commentators thoughts regarding “the Stoics” as well.
I may have to check in tomorrow to read your posts, yet I would like to read your responses.
We’ve spoken a lot of the Stoics around here, and there are a disproportionate number (IMO) of practitioners/attempting practitioners here. At the risk of offending you in case you already know how to do this, this is how you can search comments:
See the little black bar at the top of the screen? Go to the far left corner and hover over GLIBERTARIANS. It will drop down to DASHBOARD.
Click DASHBOARD.
Down the left side, 3rd item down, is COMMENTS. Click that.
Go over to the right and there is a search box. Enter your search term then click ENTER.
It’ll take a while to pull up (I mean, 1.5M comments, amirite?!), but that’s how you search comments. 🙂
I hope that is helpful and not offensive.
Among the Pantheon, our resident Stoic is Warty. As a Ch’an Buddhist, I always tease him by calling Stoicism “Buddhism for White People”. That having been said, there is some truth to that, as Stoicism was contemporary to the first Indo-Greek contact, which also happened to be the golden age of Indian Buddhism.
As such, there is much in Stoicism I find admirable, particularly the practice of achieving eudaimonia by using reason to temper those desires that bring us suffering from our ignorance of logos (semantically cognate with dharma!)
Stoic meditation also has a lot in common with Buddhist meditation, particularly in what we call maranasati or meditation on our own mortality and death.
I do wonder how neo-Stoics navigate these chauvistically nationalist times, since cosmopolitianism, in its original true sense, is a central tenet of Stoicism.
That’s a thumbnail sketch of my thoughts on the subject.
The only thing that matters about the Greeks was that they were all gay all the time/ modern scholar.
Also, Charles, if you’re up to reading fictional modern Stoics, try A Man in Full by Tom Wolfe.
Charles, FWIW:
I came to the Stoics via the military. In thirty years of reading them – and I do not claim to have any expertise at all – they seem to get better with age. Epictetus, Marcus Aurelius (of course – mandatory for Marine officers, IIRC), Seneca, etc. all have wonderful insights into the eternal problems/questions, IMO. I can also second Mojo’s recommendation of Tom Wolfe’s “A Man in Full.” Someone else on here (kinnath, I think, but I might be misattributing that) seems to have a deep understanding of the Stoics, if memory serves me.
I can also say that, like HM, having come to Buddhism before the Stoics, and then re-touched it later in life (after reading the Stoics), I was struck by the similarities. I always suspected that there must have been some interaction between those cultures and philosophies, at least it seemed like it from my explorations of both.
And for whatever else it matters, I’m now reading a bunch of ancient Indian spiritual texts – the Upanishads, the Mahabharata, the Vedas, and I find the same “truths” (unsurprisingly). I just bought the Tao and Kong Ze’s (Confucius’) texts. I’m already anticipating a great deal of overlap.
It’s almost as if people have given these matters a great deal of thought from the beginning of thought.
Eris wants a word.

My guess is no.
Grocery bag wars update:
My market was back to plastic bags today. My state banned them effective March 1 and my city imposes a 5-cent fee on paper bags. I forgot to bring my bacteria-bags so I took a plastic bag.
They charged me 5 cents for it.
Assholes.
Dude…never let a crisis go to waste. Even when its a nickel at a time.
so they make you have plastic bags and then charge you extra.
lol
It’s very amusing how quickly New York turned their backs on bags.
When death is close suddenly dumb shit doesn’t matter!
That’s bullshit. The purpose of the 5 cent charge was supposed to be to defray the extra costs incurred by using paper instead of plastic.
I noticed about a month ago that Rite Aid (big chain) was charging for plastic bags too. I had my bacteria-bags at the time so I didn’t think too much about it. But yeah, how are they getting away with it…?
The 5 cents is to pay off the grocers and make sure their competitors are equally hobbled.

Liquor stores are closed starting tomorrow. Which means people will have to go to grocery stores for their booze. So congratulations, you fucking idiots, you now have even more people congregating into grocery stores for incidentals. These morons cannot help but make things worse at every turn. FUCK. YOU.
Only the cities have liquor stores here, because all the other stores have the booze anyway.
Not to mention making more people unemployed. Their idiocy is monumental.
“A record number of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck! We must put a stop to that!”

It’s worth it for the increased cases of domestic violence.
And suicide.
Thank you.
If you can’t have a drink just end it.
My mechanic mentioned that to me today. He’s as eye-rolly about it as I am, but this is really affecting even people who aren’t panicking.
He is as eye-rolly about the Moo Goo Gai Panic as I am, not eye-rolly about domestic violence.
Why not both?
I volunteered at a battered women’s shelter for a while. I don’t tend to roll my eyes about spouses beating each other up.
My mom helped out a lady who stayed at a battered women’s shelter; the lady’s sons weren’t allowed to stay there because they didn’t allow ‘men’ there. #SCIENCE
How old were the boys?
I think the older one was 13 or 14 at the time (and obviously gay, not that he’d come out or even knew himself)
I defended more people (yes, both men and women) on domestic violence charges than I can remember. My official stance with the DAs was the first time is his fault (if you’ll indulge the stereotype, the second time it’s still his fault but she really ought to make a change, and the third time was assumption of the risk.
I dont know what the big deal is over ‘battered women’.
I always thought they taste fine raw.
/hey-oooh!
There are valid reasons for not allowing males in a women’s shelter.
Mine allowed male children up to, I think 10 or something? I don’t remember. There was one around 10, and he was pure evil and wreaked havoc (and violence) all over the place. He was very charismatic, utterly charming, and completely wicked. He could get the other kids to believe the grass was pink.
The only thing he did to ME, which I quit over, was, after telling him to get down out of a tree, I picked up a baby to comfort her. He looked straight at me and, talking to the other kids, said, “See how she’s holding that baby? I bet she molests kids.”
Nobody else heard or saw this. I took the baby back to its mother and quit on the spot.
I understand that logically. There are a lot of variables I’m not going to parse because the first time a man hits me, he better be prepared to be put in the ground because I am not putting up with that bullshit.
But I get it. I get the mental and emotional torture. I’ve experienced it (dad and both grandmothers). It’s a mindset that’s difficult to get out of.
And hey, I’m not even going to try to address the difficulties faced by men whose women are the violent ones. That’s a whole ‘nother level of fucked up all the way around, and what those men need is an avenger. A female avenger.
So, if your kids are too old, don’t leave that guy that punches you in the face if you have sons?
More like…don’t endanger a dozen other women.
Look, resources are scarce everywhere. This includes incorporeal things like risk assumption. The shelter would be utterly foolish to allow a woman with teenage boys in, open itself up to law suits, etc, etc, etc, and possibly get shut down. So then nobody can go to that shelter.
It sucks. But that’s reality.
Mass solutions to individual problems are always going to have fit problems. You have to make choices and try to solve as many as well as you can. Sure some women will stay in a bad place if they can’t bring their kids, but others will stay, or go back to the situation, if there are teen boys in the shelter, especially troubled teens from abusive homes.
“My mom helped out a lady who stayed at a battered women’s shelter;”
Was it called the “Tempura House?”
If only there’s some moral heritage that helps folks over time cleave to a way of being more in keeping with domestic tranquility, even if it’s sometimes inexplicable and especially if it’s sometimes contrary to the way they behave anyway.

Pushed the button and e-filed my taxes tonight. At least I don’t have to mail a check for another 3 months.
My Meijer has been chill af (so far), so with this gem: Coronavirus: Kroger to limit shoppers entering stores nationwide, Ill keep shopping there till they fall in line. Which likely wont be too long.
Hope springs eternal.
They’re (theoretically) limiting the number of shoppers here too, to 50 or less at a time. ’Course, other than the Home Despot, I’m not seeing a lot of compliance. All the bigger grocery retailers aren’t limiting numbers (although the Wholesale Club was). Co-op, Safeway, Superstore, all are just letting people in as they want.
They keep changing the rules here. First, it was throttling the people entering. Ten they started using masking tape lines to denote 6 feet increments in the lines to the registers. Now they’re installing plexiglass barriers everywhere. The only constant is the limits on water, bleach, TP and some other crap people are binge-buying.
Is the new slogan sharpied onto Hat new, or am I super inattentive?
Yes, SharpieGate callback.
I mean, yes that it’s new, but you might be inattentive as well, I’d have to talk to your exes to find that out. (and if I recall correctly you got some chocolate in your vanilla shake at some point)
I caught the beginning of Schindler’s List tonight and there was a scene where (((they))) were in line with papers to register and we’re talking about what workers were going to be “non-essential”. Was a little jarring with what’s going on lately.

Hmmm. A little thought from Small Dead Animals. Any one got any musings about this?
Got that? All your cats and dogs are just lying in wait with Cornona to kill you! Like little chicom assassins!
I think the poster’s more worried about a sudden drastic reduction in our food supplies, specifically livestock. Losing (say) 50% of our animal protein sources over one season would be very bad news.
An animal carrying a disease and an animal being susceptible to a disease are two very different things. And, at least with the animals we’ve domesticated, it is almost unheard of it affecting us and them on the scale of death.

fun stuff CPRM.
I always wish you wouldn’t make Donny so laughabley inchoherent, then I remember you use actual recordings of him. It’s often unclear around here where the line between reality and imagination is.
Yeah, and the sad thing is, mostly I get lazy and don’t even edit them, just it out of context. *Sigh* I’d make great documentaries if I didn’t care about truth.
Heh. On many levels.
Every time I hear him speak I think of SF, but for some reason that makes it more distressing hearing him speak.
Any Glibs with a virology/public health/etc want to opine on herd immunity with relation to the current panic? I assume with all the asymptomatic people I’m hearing about there must be a decent chunk of the population that now has immunity. How should that affect forecasted deaths and the number of infected?
P.S. This is a serious question and Omega Man references don’t count.
You sure, Imperator?
I’ll wait here while you fire at the zombies.
Fuck anyone who calls me part of a “herd”.
So you’re merely part of a mob?
Is flock better? Pack?
I bet he wants to be part of an unkindness.
Maybe a murder?
Crows.
An unkindness is for ravens.
Thank you. There was an unkindness of about 25-30 at our neighbor’s house the other that and I wondered at the time of the distinction.
“day” not that. Don’t know where that came from.
Used to be. Nevermore.
Yes I know. The joke was we were listing every more out there ‘synonyms.’
Hobbit, you’re welcome.
I only know that because the main storyline of Cods & Cuntes involves ravens.
You may someday get to read it if I ever actually finish it. *weary sigh*
No, MikeS, I’m not linking Chapter 18 again.
*wild applause*
I guess you didn’t get the memo on Wisconsin semi-pro basketball…
Yes and no.
I’m so confused. Did NY get a lot of additional ventilators and hospital beds or did the number of sick drastically depart from the forecasted number?
https://dailycaller.com/2020/04/06/cuomo-ventilators-new-york-coronavirus/
Now that Orange Man Bad is making them accessible they don’t need them #Science!
Well, in the vein (ahem) of those medical people that got fired for suggesting that anyone who supports/voted for Trump should forego ventilators, turn about is fair play–Leftists, be sure to shun the OMB-provided ventilators!
See how asinine that is? Not so cool when y–Oh, who am I kidding? They wouldn’t get it if it jumped and gave ’em the bat-tusi boogaloo.
I find it clariifying.

I was as excited as that Pharaoh. ?
Wasn’t he just whining that they were about to run out of ventilators and needed to raid the Fed stockpile?
“Now that I’ve stolen enough, we don’t need more that we’d have to pay for” -Andy
that IS NY economics on any level
I’m sure I heard that two or three days ago.
The forecast of required beds has dropped; I dunno about ventilators. Knock on wood.
Well that is good news.
“Supelak said she was surprised by how normal people appeared to be acting”
ErMyGod. Not normal! Maybe it’s the lack of mass deaths making people feel normal?

THEY WANT PEOPLE TO DIE!
I f’g love Remy:)
I responded to her tweet. Something about them not being sheep.
This whole thing reminds me of the crime wave of the 80’s. You go to the store and it’s filled with people in masks who might kill you.
Thanks, CPRM. Nice body of work you got going.
Don’t talk about my body, perv!
BTW, put these up on Bitchute if you haven’t already. That idiotic video I put on there yesterday already got over 100 views and I didn’t do anything other than plop it there.
Meh, I did a while back, I think until episode 16 or so. I didn’t get many views. And my internet is too slow, takes all my bandwidth to upload a video.
I’d push your videos to my normie friends, but, well, you know.
Right–no friends. I hear ya, buddy- er, dude.
I have a friend. He doesn’t know it yet, though.
Before #metoo that was a joke you could make about women too /le sigh.

My TV show client asked me if I thought adding a prayer would be a bad decision, I said no, I think you can do it right now. Didn’t know she was going to do a three minutes of rambling and not give me a visual to work with…OK, CLOUDS! We’re flying through the clouds! Thank yeezus for B-Roll…

A group of regional native organizations and federal fishing quota grantee are trying to establish quarantine procedures for out-of-region workers coming to fish and process the summer salmon season in SW Alaska. If you the cynic in wondered how much of their funding comes from fishing and not tax dollars, you are 100% correct.
So, you’re saying there’s something fishy about their motives?
They’re just trying to tip the scales.
I expect them to flounder around before they make a decision.
It’s an upstream battle to prevent these schemes from netting anything.
That’s terrible. But yes.
You know who else thought something was fishy, but, said still said yes?
They’re not doing it for the halibut.
Evidently 脱出東京 (flee Tokyo!) is trending on da Twitters. From my quick glimpse it is mostly being pushed by the gaijin here. Fine, you want to leave? Leave.
I am trying to get as far from Tokyo as I can manage.
I don’t think Brazil is any safer.
I can’t manage to get there anyway.
Not me. Ive been known to get big checks from Toyota.
why is that?
Just because the numbers are going up because they are actually testing now.
ah gotcha
It’s Fly-jin Boogaloo!
Probably the same people who thought they’d get cancer from Fukushima as they cowered in their apts in Shibuya.
This has been getting a bit of a deja vu feeling having been here during the Sarin gas attack (guy got on the same train at the same station 10 minutes after me), 9/11, the triple-whammy in 2011, and now this. It’s like they couldn’t make one of those disaster flicks from the 70’s and 80’s anymore because we’ve already need through all that.

My water filter came with a ‘TDS Tester’. I want to crack jokes about everything being politicized these days.
Got an RODI?
Not sure what that is. I got a zero water pitcher to see if it can remove the metallic taste from my tapwater.
oh sorry. i have a fancy reverse osmosis de-ionization unit w/ a tds meter. I imagine it makes sense for other filtration systems too.
I don’t think I need quite that much filtration.
It’s for making saltwater for my aquarium.
If UCS identifies as a fish then let’s respect his choices.
Paging Troy McClure…
Don’t be silly. I’m a giant sea clam.

I originally read that as ROID.
I don’t even want to ask how your water tastes…
It tastes like NOTHING, a very DELICIOUS nothing. I love water.
? ? ?
Uhh…never mind that last one.

On second thought….
Removes 99% of logic and objectivity.
I hear it’s pretty good at filtering out things like humor, and, nuance, too.
nice
That is strangely awesome.
Total Dissolved Solids has a part preference ?
/party
On the serious side, I want to thank whichever glib(s) recommended the ZeroWater – the test glass had no metallic taste to it.
I don’t understand. Still, we should try it.
It is about to spin and blend the city?
What game was it where one of the boss fights involved a spinning set of lasers and platforms you had to time your moves between? This picture triggered the memory and now it is bugging the hell out of me.
That’s a common sort of attack, I think I’ve seen it multiple places.
Why can’t you read my mind and tell me what game my unclear image is from! Lol, I thought of 3 or 4 boss fights in MMOs that fit the description as soon as I posted that, but this was a stealth/shooter of some sort. Was there a spinning laser fight in one of the Deus Exes?
Now we don’t need just walls but sky lasers too?!
Need? No.
Do I want a sky laser (under my control)? Yes.
It’s called a “skywall”, for whatever that’s worth.
Digby, I mean this as a compliment, for cereal, after the chat you remind me of Adam Carolla, and you have abilities that could be used to herd my metaphorical cats, but not in a gay way, not that there is anything wrong with that.
So…NOT Dr. Drew? As in, I don’t need to change my screen name and avatar? Still–corralling gay pussy sounds like the story of my twenties…
I think I went after many a gay pussy…in fact, the gal who played my GF in my horror movie was ‘gay’ when we made the move, she was ‘straight’ after I made out with her on camera, then when she went gay again and married some broad.
Oooof. That’s….ooof. Also, you aren’t wrong about the Florida joke.
So, how do I cash in on those Adam Carolla bucks?
Find a way to monetize me bitcht!
I did wear my H&H shirt to work yesterday. I mean, no one really saw it…at least, I don’t think they did. By that, I mean I always just presume that, if they aren’t making eye contact, they’re looking
forat my junk.Also: “bitcht” Bitchin’ T-bird? Bitchute? (If I could do that, straff would be due a cut, since he already mentioned it)

NOT ENOUGH RACISM! Hence Blackish.
You are, indeed, wise in the ways of racial SCIENCE!!
I have a film school degree after all, that means I can tell everyone else how stupid they are.
Oh, right–“color” film…. Makes sense.
See, this is it, right here, we have banter…You’re the Adam Carolla to my Toyota!
So. you manufactured me? Johnny 5 is alive? ??⛩
Plus, I get to be a Carolla, and not the more Glibs-popular FJ….fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
