Retired git on Colorado’s Front Range. I take photos of birds and critters and flowers and mountains and skies I was a failure at that other place. My only followers were apparently pornbots. Photos are my own. Jokes and memes, not so much. I will boost alt-texted photos.

If I got an unsolicited dick daguerreotype, I'd just be impressed by the effort.

Maintaining an erection long enough for one of those exposures would be impressive, to be sure.

It's so weird that we are all supposed to be ashamed for burping and farting. I deeply apologize to everyone for keeping my body from literally exploding, so uncouth.

I have a milder version where I’ll have to sneeze once, or rarely, twice when I first go out in strong sunlight. And it’s not every time.

@RickiTarr
With a life-long chronic bowel disease, farting has always been problematic. Sharting is always a risk. It’s interesting how sensitive one can become to internal sensations with years of practice, but one can never be 100% sure. One learns things like, sleep lightly, and if you dream of anything remotely connected to defecation, WAKE UP NOW! or else you’ll be doing laundry in the morning.

Jingle Bells is about a variety of Ivy League collegiate hijinks involving alternately riding in and pulling a sleigh along snow-covered lanes, naked, letting your bells jingle as you run along.

Thing is, centipedes are famously fastidious. They wash every single leg multiple times a day and seem rather like a very leggy cat while doing it.

Perhaps it's because they are predators. Predators seem to tend to be into washing up more.

(I know it's a millipede in the cartoon, but that just makes it funnier since the centipede would roll their eyes at the complaining. )

W.o.w. How does its little brain do that? It would be cool to see that head on to watch whatever it’s doing with (I presume?) it’s mouth parts.
I’ll go back and watch the whole thing in case it’s already there.

Based on the acceleration of human ignorance and greed, there's a chance I could still be around to see the demise of civilization afterall.
How exciting.

Pretty sure I’m a tad older than you and I was thinking the same thing recently. I confess to having mixed feelings about it.

@dabertime
What you said.👊🏻
I’ve read a little about the fall of the Bronze Age civilizations at the east end of the Mediterranean. Literally the beginning of history—these folks invented writing. Some of them we can read! and some we can’t, yet. The oligarchs of the day were writing back & forth to each other about the news of the day, and then they stopped. Not clear why, except for cryptic tales of The Sea People. No one knows who they were. Probably something like that. Same old, etc.

@dabertime
Also, too, writing was invented around the same time, in present day China and in Central and South America. In Africa too but I forget where. It was after Egyptians thought up their hieroglyphs, I think. Cuneiform scripts were invented for accounting and inventory control. And tax accounting. About 5 or 6 hundred years later poems and stories appeared.

Dear Menard's Garden Center manager dude,

May I suggest that telling someone who is literally putting their card back in their wallet after completing a purchase that they "need to move, the line is really long" is a Bad Idea

Especially when you, my dude, are blocking the exit with your line of carts.

As I told you, "I am literally putting away my card and then I will be gone."

Perhaps you should have more than one cashier on duty.

Fuck you very much

If I read this correctly, it’s not her doing it, but a voter referendum. She’ll probably try to shoot it (heh) down.

Johnson serves at Democrats' pleasure. Johnson's statements at Trump's trial were despicable. More than anything, this was a statement from the Speaker that he’s willing to steal the election for Trump, and Democrats should say, “Then you’re out.”

Thanks for this thread. Makes me wonder how much crypto is making its way into congressional, and presidential, campaign coffers.

Yup, same here. We’re in between the generational wedding cycles. And the next batch are only in middle school and elementary school. (And nobody’s in any of the child bride eligible states, thank the gods. Also there’s only 3 of them—we’re not a prolific family.
