    Rogan is such a pussy. He's terrified of Sam and refuses to "have a conversation" with him because he know that Seder will absolutely demolish him with a barrage of facts and logic Rogan's baby brain doesn't understand. 

    Side note: Seder's appearance on Jubilee just dropped yesterday in which he politely and deftly humiliates 20 young Republicans. It's worth watching.

    I don't care.  My chickens give me 2-3 per day.

    I got one the other day. Sure, I'll probably need a dozen more for an omelette,but free is free.

    If we stick with standard, we would have sunrises close to 4am for cities in the north for a few weeks in June. Most people prefer to sleep in between 6-8a and not have the sun out before then.

    I also don’t get the idea that people struggle with a one hour change. Go to sleep an hour early tonight. Have an extra shot of caffeine on Monday morning.

    1 hour time changes seem to fuck with me more than flying halfway around the world.

     

    really don't know why texas has to be subjected to DST (again, people in austin's clocks are now set 2 hours ahead of their geographic time zone's) because some people in minnesota might have the sun come up at 4:30 am for a couple of weeks otherwise. their ancestors came from fucking sweden and the sun comes up there even earlier with 18 and a half hours of daylight.

    I manage abiut 15 people. I bet we end up having 50% turnover from this one RTO decision. Nobody (on a state salary) under 35 lives closer than an hour to HQ. And the eligible and rehired retirees are gone. And the folks with small children. So really it will just be golden handcuff people like me (pension seekers), and the childless folk who are able to live in old Austin who stay.

    RTO combined with the doge committee asking if agencies can be moved out of austin to save on rent seems about right for our dumb leadership

    oh, i wasn't saying they had it, i'm just amazed people buy prediced onion. fastest thing to prep in the entire kitchen and an onion lasts a long time on the counter so buying prediced is just... something

     

    (here's a 15 minute video on how to chop an onion in less than 20 seconds)

    I wasn’t going to say anything, but since you edited it,  I’d say you meant to post this in a thread over in the Help forum, and all I can say from personal experience is use a water-based lubricant because anything else is a fucking nightmare to get out of bedsheets,

    what gen are today’s teenagers?  gen alpha?

    gen z extends to at least 2012, so most teenagers are gen z.

     

     

    the average age of new mothers in the united states is 27 so generations should be 27 years wide. that doesn't do much for marketing weenies so they use the term "generation" for smaller cadres.

  9. fuck the earth amirite?

    Feb. 5, 2025 (Spaceweather.com): What goes up, must come down–which could be a problem when you’re launching thousands of satellites. Since 2018, SpaceX has placed more than 7,000 Starlink satellites into Earth orbit, and now they are starting to come down. In January alone, more than 120 Starlinks deorbited, creating a shower of fireballs.

    “The sustained rate of daily reentries is unprecedented,” says Jonathan McDowell, an astronomer at the Harvard Center for Astrophysics who tracks satellites. “They are retiring and incinerating about 4 or 5 Starlinks every day.”
