Holy shit, someone who knows psychostick!! 🤘

Could you address the booping context?

Hey I’ll use this comment; I totally wondered if it was a reference to CBB but there wasn’t really a chance to ask without derailing

It’s close enough to the gag that I caught it. You did well

Are the two events related?

Damn really? I was just thinking about it the other day and thought they were all gone. By Macy’s, do you mean a standalone store? Or do they have a small section in a mall store?

There was also that one where he rhymed “things” with “things”

Time to have a rewatch

My partner showed me this a couple years ago. Now, we’ll be talking or I have a thought and the conclusion is “America” to which the follow-up is “want to put it on?”

It hits me harder each time I watch it especially how things have further eroded since then

Edit: I was curious and checked out the comments. They were surprisingly wholesome but I didn’t scroll too far. However one sent me down a bit of a rabbit hole and I found something that made me do a double take:

The text from that image reads

THE TWO PLATFORMS

Every RADICAL in Congress VOTED for NEGRO SUFFRAGE. Every RADICAL in the Pennsylvania Senate VOTED for NEGRO SUFFRAGE. STEVENS, FORNEY & CAMERON are for NEGRO SUFFRAGE; they are all Candidates for the UNITED STATES SENATE. NO RADICAL NEWSPAPER OPPOSES NEGRO SUFFRAGE GEARY said in a Speech, at Barrisburg, 11th of Angust, 1866-“THERE CAN BE NO POSSIBLE OBJECTION TO NEGRO SUFFRAGE”

It’s the writing style. If that is the type of material that one reads in their formative years it makes sense that it’s emerging again in the twilight years

Ps. I’m sorry I spent so much time on this it just struck me and I had to explore. Made me sick at some points. To be clear, I support everyone’s right to vote but the above quoted message was demonizing that sentiment. Also to be clear, Geary was a white man and won that election

I had the absolute fortune to make my way through there at the end of last year. It was so bizarre to me that for the most part people are left alone to follow the rules with no oversight

And for the most part I saw everyone behaving well and not doing anything stupid; except the group of people trying to take pictures of a bison who was clearly unhappy about how close they were getting. He was grazing and would walk away a couple steps and they would follow. The boi was swishing his tail and showing what I saw were “leave me the fuck alone” signs and I had to at least shout to the people to leave him alone and they were fucking idiots. I was HOPING that they got charged and had some sense knocked into them

My partner and I had had discussions previously about what we’d do if something like that was about to happen and the kiddo in the car. If it’s just us adults then we’ll stay and watch the carnage but we’ll take off if they’re with us

It’s the same sentiment with The Onion and Black Mirror. Having to take a step back because reality is too absurd

Bigger yes, dumber no. It’s like saying dogs are dumber than cats. They’re just different and “smart” at different things. I don’t see packs of tracking cats going out on search and rescue missions

Awww I loved that! The horse was weirded out but mostly ok. His body language was calm and he followed her when she walked away, which is a sign it respects you and sees you as someone to trust and follow

Wait , WHAT?? that’s one of my favorite movies and I’ve seen it a million times. I know exactly what scene and pirate you’re referring to

From https://screenrant.com/hook-movie-glenn-close-cameo-pirate/

“Glenn Close isn’t the only famous face that can list a cameo in Hook on her résumé. Musicians David Crosby and Jimmy Buffett also appear as members of Hook’s crew, as does boxer and Rocky star Tony Burton. Elsewhere in Hook, stars including actress Carrie Fisher, director George Lucas and musician Phil Collins also make brief cameos.”

I had no idea!! I’ll have to give it another watch when I get home!

Here’s a long video of her using the broom to brush different parts of her body

https://youtu.be/3rX1dx8HpL0

She’s using it to reach parts of her body otherwise unreachable, even delicate places like under her tail and around her udder

Ooooh this is something I don’t know about! I’m guessing c3, c4 are classes and how things photosynthesize differently. Can you direct me to some reading materials?

Does it have anything to do with how some succulents turn red with sun stress?

I have a copy still and was thinking of firing up the ps3 to give the full flashback experience

I couldn’t find it so I drew myself holding the game in lieu. If I find the game I’ll make an update (which now I need to go find it because I know I have it)

Ok, so I was like “I bet it’s with the ps3” but I already drew the picture so here’s the photo:

As a kid I’d 100% dilute half and half or cream and use that

Only reason I don’t anymore is because I can’t do dairy

“It is the first time astronauts have been evacuated due to a health issue since the station was put into Earth’s orbit in 1998.”

Fourth paragraph - above what you quoted

I still have it around somewhere in hopes I can fix it

When I got it, my family said it didn’t work, it had some weird error. I charged it and turned it on so they were like “sure you can have it”

It was my first smartphone,. actually, and I used it for quite a while until it died again. I don’t remember the error, but it was basically bricked and I couldn’t factory reset it via the phone menu. I had a very young child and trying to figure out the android sdk for a computer to fiddle that out was too taxing for me

I really liked that phone for sure. I’m sure it’s a lot of nostalgia, but I miss the older simpler phones. Much easier to handle, too.

I’ve currently just been using every couple generations of the Xa model. This one’s a pixel 7a, last was a 4a which the child has now. It’s got severe battery life issues after that update recently but I haven’t looked into it too hard. Been wanting to look for some alternatives and I’m leaning towards something unconventional, at least by today’s standards. I checked out that phone and it really looks good, both aesthetically and specs wise

I had a Nexus that I got as a hand me down. It had a ball with customizable colors

The next one I had after that had an led you could customize for different types of notifications

Oh I made another comment but this was what I was talking about! I was talking to my partner about it last night after watching the CES video. I couldn’t remember the name but this is exactly it

I said it was “Rock Pops” because i think that’s great
