Yes! You’ll see that other parts of the house look dirty and just dust a little, put a few things away, organize…

It’s surprisingly effective to have a little robot buddy!

So DEI now just means the job went to a non-white, non-GOP, not-male person.

Convenient.

Oh hell yes.

I work from home, in the basement. Getting a roomba meant I didn’t have to vacuum, but I did have to pick stuff up off the floor.

So now one 15 minute break is tidying and starting the vacuum. The next is cleaning the vacuum out and organizing dishes, while a third is doing the dishes and sometimes minor dinner prep.

My wife gets to come home to a clean house and I get to do it all on the clock so it’s done when I’m done with work. Total life changer.

My point is that he isn’t interested in being a leader. He would rather make the easy jokes, and I’ve lost a ton of respect for him.

Jon Stewart would rather make jokes over a still image of Biden than step the fuck up.

You can make stupid outrage news anywhere, out of any number of issues. It does not escalate to world news.

This shit is not world fucking news.

It still wouldn’t be WORLD NEWS.

Well, this is just my opinion as a jaded American, but I believe it means “Told off in a publicly embarrassing way that has zero actual consequence in the long term, so the powerful people of the party can wash their hands of the whole matter whilst pretending they don’t actually openly celebrate their fascism behind closed doors.”

Humanity is a lost cause. Still worth fighting for.

Anything with George Guidall.

He has a deep, resonant voice. I don’t know how else to describe it, but it’s very comforting.

He has done probably hundreds of audiobooks but one series I remember him doing was The Cat Who… line of mysteries. Very lightweight but fun books.

I was on a MUD (old multi-player internet text rpg) called Three Kingdoms when Princess Diana died. Over a hundred people online at the time from all over the world.

It was a huge shock for everyone, followed by a strange communal grieving for a well-known and liked international figure.

I totally get where you’re coming from but wanted to put the counterpoint, as obvious as it was.

She was caring for those who nobody else could for at that time, and to generally good effect day to day.

I’ve worked in group homes and know of the challenges you face in serving those who aren’t all that stable.

Just would never have advocated for that solution for anyone really. All that is said with historical knowledge and such.

Yours was a good post.

She was trying her best with that she had and knew at the time, even if she overreacted in the end, to terrible effect.

And forced a sane but disruptive man through a disabling procedure?

No. She went way the hell too far so she could protect her little kingdom and stay in power. She was not concerned with helping her charges improve their lot in life.

I do block them, but I will still call it out when I see it.

Go the fuck away, fascist.

Yes, but the warning was included in the subject. Also there’s no more obvious twist than that.
