This looks uncomfortable and humiliating. Now if they were to make it in the form of a suppository…

Last week I tipped a friend off about an upcoming job opening that would have us living in the same town. The boss sees their resume tomorrow.

O Mighty Potato, grant me this boon.

It’s clearly haunted.

Probably not criminal trespassing, since they are the owner of the property. It may fall under tenant harassment, unauthorized entry, constructive eviction, or other laws that pertain specifically to landlord/tenant relations.

Check to see if there are any local tenant’s rights or advocacy groups in your area that offer free legal consultations. They’d be able to advise you on the local tenant’s rights laws and whether they apply to your situation.

Just stick your hands between your buttocks. That’s nature’s pocket.

Multiple HTTP requests can be performed over a single connection, and not all connections are for HTTP requests in the first place. The only way to know that an HTTP request is being made (or how many) is to actually see the requests.

It would be a privacy nightmare, of course. Either we would all have to install monitoring software on our devices, or we would have to allow ISPs to break HTTPS.

Any military intervention into North Korea would have to be a joint effort by the USA and China. Neither power would tolerate the other moving troops into North Korea unilaterally.

Secondly, even a successful intervention would be a humanitarian crisis that would require a decades-long commitment by the powers involved.

And finally, North Korea has nukes. Any intervention would start off in a mad scramble to destroy, capture, or neutralize North Korea launch sites, and then to secure any surviving warheads.

This also partly explains why other countries are willing to send aid. Nobody wins if North Korea collapses.

“Pissing in the soup” doesn’t really work here unless you’re adulterating the software with something malicious.

Assuming a ~20% shift towards pro-choice opinions I would expect more pro-choice laws, not an orgy of casual abortions.

Polling suggests that around 70% of women and 50% of men support abortion, though. If those stats simply reversed then nothing really changes.

Independence Day was peak 1990’s Americana.

I started using a white noise machine and fans on high when I lived down the block from a hospital emergency room. It sounded like a jet engine in my bedroom, but my brain learned to interpret the white noise as profound silence. I moved away from the hospital zone but still use the white noise to sleep.

Also, sliding around pretending to ice skate.

I once experienced an episode of sleep paralysis with auditory hallucinations. I heard a deep masculine voice speaking in a guttural language that seemed just on the edge of being comprehensible to me. As if it were the primeval language from which all others sprang. The feel of the language in my ear was as familiar as my native tongue. I recognized the cadence, I could discern where one word ended and the next began, whether a sentence was a question, and so forth. But the words themselves were somehow alien.

I strained my senses trying to hear the voice more clearly. What horrible prophesy was I being given? What dreadful task have I been appointed? Am I the keymaster? The antichrist? Am I dying? Oh shit, that’s it, isn’t it? I’m dying and going to hell. Fuckfuckfuck. Um. I accept Jesus as my savior? …Buddha? …Joe Pesci?

Then I snapped out of it and the voice turned out to be the muffled sound of my neighbor’s TV. Praise be to Joe Pesci!

For one, the shark is not at fault. The swimmer is. Which doesn’t really fit the overall message.
