Damn, it's almost been a year and that area is still fucked up.

How does a 51 yr old man still have a roommate? Oh, he's a Travis County assistant DA. Maybe he can act crazy unfit to stand trial and his boss will let him back out on the street immediately. https://www.kxan.com/news/local/travis-county-assistant-district-attorney-arrested-charged-with-aggravated-assault/ A Travis County assistant district attorney was arrested Saturday morning on a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon following an argument with a roommate, according to an arrest affidavit. Joseph Frederick III, 51, was booked in the Travis County jail at 3:49 a.m. by the Austin Police Department, according to Travis County inmate records. According to the arrest affidavit, Frederick and his roommate got into an argument Friday after Frederick said his roommate was making “googly eyes” at a guest in their apartment. An argument escalated and the roommate went into his bedroom, locked his door and packed his belongings, the affidavit said. During this time, the roommate told police Frederick was trying to force the bedroom door open and caused damage to the door. The roommate told police he opened the bedroom door and saw Frederick pointing a silver revolver at him, according to the affidavit. The roommate left the room, and when he returned he saw Frederick point a gun at his face and say, “I’ll shoot you.”

https://www.statesman.com/story/entertainment/2024/06/10/zilker-park-mini-train-ready-austin-texas-summer-family-fun/74017423007/ All aboard, Austin! The Zilker Eagle mini train is finally leaving the station. The team behind the new train announced a June 12 opening date at a special preview ride for media Monday morning. The launch is a welcome surprise, as only about two weeks ago the train didn't have an opening timeline and needed adjustments for clearance purposes.

Bike talk has unnecessarily died down. Need to re-start it again.

I am not lookin for the video nor would I post it. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/python-swallows-woman-whole-indonesia/ Missing mother found dead inside 16-foot-long python after it swallowed her whole in Indonesia A woman has been found dead inside the belly of a snake after it swallowed her whole in central Indonesia, a local official said Saturday, marking at least the fifth person to be devoured by a python in the country since 2017. The husband of 45-year-old Farida and residents of Kalempang village in South Sulawesi province discovered her on Friday inside the reticulated python, which measured around five meters (16 feet). The mother-of-four had gone missing Thursday night and failed to return home, forcing a search effort, village head Suardi Rosi told AFP. Her husband "found her belongings... which made him suspicious. The villagers then searched the area. They soon spotted a python with a large belly," said Suardi. "They agreed to cut open the python's stomach. As soon as they did, Farida's head was immediately visible." Farida was found fully clothed inside the snake. Graphic video published by TMZ appeared to show the snake being cut open in a wooded area while more footage posted by the Daily Mail appeared to show the woman's body being carried in a blanket past distressed villagers.

MoJames said it post 147. Acetazolamide https://www.aafp.org/pubs/afp/issues/2020/0415/p505.html Acetazolamide aids in acclimatization and should be strongly considered for high-altitude travelers at moderate to high risk of AMS. The recommended prophylactic dosage for adults is 125 mg every 12 hours; the dosage for children is 2.5 mg per kg (maximum: 125 mg) every 12 hours. Acetazolamide should be started the day before ascent and continued for two to four days after arrival at the target altitude. However, it still has beneficial effects if started the day of ascent. Although acetazolamide is a sulfonamide, it is extremely unlikely to cause an allergic reaction; a supervised trial can be considered before traveling

Glad you did my favorite part about visiting Paris, walking around getting "lost" in the city and finding out how fucking awesome it is. The "rude Parisians" are the ones clueless American's walk up to and without even a polite "Bonjour Monsieur/Madame", immediately start speaking/asking questions in English, and then get pissed that the French person France is not so nice or cordial in answering. Florence is awesome but for me Florence is a place where I love to visit. Paris is a place where I'd love to live.

Worst bike crash I ever had. We had a neighborhood slide like the below which broke. We decided to convert it into a bike ramp. Laid if flat on the ground which meant the ramp was about 60 degrees straight up. I was the first and only idiot to try the jump. Hauled ass, took the jump, which basically shot me up vertically. No down ramp to come down on. I landed straight down on both wheels. My handle bar stripped forward. I fell over the front of the bike as the handle bar stripped. My nuts crashed the goose neck at the base of the handle bar. I broke my balls and dick. I don't think I stopped crying for 30 mins. My friends could not stop laughing the entire time. It was the last time I ever tried any stupid shit on my bike.

Yay, another historical global heat record!!!!! https://www.cbsnews.com/news/record-high-temperatures-12-straight-months/ World hits 12 straight months of record-high temperatures — but as warming continues, it'll be "remembered as comparatively cold" The world has now marked one full year of back-to-back monthly heat records, the European Union's Copernicus Climate Change Service announced on Wednesday. It said last month was the hottest May in recorded history — the 12th consecutive month in which the monthly high temperature record was broken. It was also the 11th consecutive month where the global average temperature was at least 1.5 degrees Celsius above the pre-industrial average. If that trend continues, it would mean the world is passing a major climate change milestone. May's average temperature was 1.52 degrees Celsius above the pre-industrial average, Copernicus reported, while the global average temperature from June 2023 to May 2024 was 1.63 degrees Celsius above the pre-industrial average. The pre-industrial average refers to the period before there was a sharp increase in emissions of greenhouse gases, which trap heat from the sun within the Earth's atmosphere and warm the planet. Experts have long warned that keeping average global temperatures no more than 1.5 degrees Celsius above that mark is critical to reduce the risk of rampant damage caused by rising global temperatures. As the planet warms, the heat leads to more precipitation and melting sea ice, fueling extreme weather conditions that can result in shifting coastlines, agricultural issues, mass migration and harmful health consequences. Carlo Buontempo, director of the Copernicus Climate Change Service, said that the 12-month streak "is shocking but not surprising," and that while the streak will likely see an interruption at some point, "the overall signature of climate change remains." "There is no sign in sight of a change in such a trend," he said. "We are living in unprecedented times. ... This string of hottest months will be remembered as comparatively cold."

The whole family including the dog could stand to lose a few 10-50 pounds. Maybe this shit wouldn't happen. The bitching from the wife is the chef's kiss.

At this moment, humanity has access to the any information which has ever existed. As a result, we as whole are more stupid and angrier than ever. There's no public discourse anymore. It's just yelling to further entrench our points. But the porn is great. The internet facilitated our descent into stupidity.

Shame? Bitch, I'm bragging!

Dudes would still wack off to Alicia Silverstone.

+1 on Garden of the Gods, Pikes Peak drive Take the train which runs along Arkansas River through the Royal Gorge. It starts and ends in Canon City. Your kids will enjoy it. https://www.royalgorgeroute.com/ Canon City is kinda dumpy and not much to do. Then drive to the top of the bridge and see the gorge from that perspective. https://royalgorgebridge.com/ When driving back, take a small 5-20 min detour to Skyline drive. https://maps.app.goo.gl/byK6sxjTBXDC5j5d8 Manitou Springs is a nice little town to walk around. https://www.visitcos.com/areas/manitou-springs/ Seven Falls is an easy, beautiful hike/climb. You can do this when you visit the Broadmoor. https://www.sevenfalls.com/ We took our kids twice to Colorado Springs when they were 4 and 6, and again at 6 and 8. Both times they loved everything that we did on the list. Edit: Warning, all these things will be touristy and crowded. Your kids won't care or remember the crowds. They'll remember the experience.

Interesting to see what the internet does to a reclusive society. I'm of the opinion that the internet is a net negative. Porn and discord. Everyone is angrier, especially the dudes not getting laid. https://www.news.com.au/technology/online/internet/remote-amazon-tribe-finally-connects-to-internet-only-to-wind-up-hooked-on-porn-social-media/news-story/6abfea69d9dd7e49541ef46eb61558c4 A reclusive tribe in the Amazon finally got hooked up to the internet — only to be torn apart by social media and porn addiction. A reclusive tribe in the Amazon finally got hooked up to the internet, thanks to Elon Musk — only to be torn apart by social media and pornography addiction, elders complain. Brazil’s 2000-member Marubo tribe has been left bitterly divided by the arrival of the Tesla founder’s Starlink service nine months ago, which connected the remote rainforest community along the Ituí River to the web for the first time. “When it arrived, everyone was happy,” Tsainama Marubo, 73, told The New York Times. “But now, things have gotten worse. Young people have gotten lazy because of the internet, they’re learning the ways of the white people.” The Marubo tribe gained access to Starlink last September. Picture: Navi Global The Marubo are a chaste tribe, who even frown upon kissing in public — but Alfredo Marubo (all Marubo use the same last name) said he is anxious that the arrival of the service, which delivers super-fast internet to far-flung corners of the planet and has been billed as a game-changer by Mr Musk, could up-end standards of decorum. Alfredo said many young Marubo men have been sharing porn videos in group chats and he has already observed more “aggressive sexual behaviour” in some of them. “We’re worried young people are going to want to try it,” he said of the kinky sex acts they’ve suddenly been exposed to on screen. “Everyone is so connected that sometimes they don’t even talk to their own family.” Starlink works by connecting antennas to 6000 low-orbiting satellites. The necessary antennas were donated to the tribe by American entrepreneur Allyson Reneau. Initially, the internet was heralded as a positive for the remote tribe who were able to quickly contact authorities for help with emergencies, including potentially deadly snake bites. “It’s already saved lives,” Enoque Marubo, 40, stated. Members are also able to share educational resources with other Amazonian tribes and connect with friends and family who now live elsewhere. But elders say people quickly became addicted to porn and social media. Picture: Navi Global It has also opened up a world of possibilities for young Marubo, some of whom have been unable to conceptualise what lays beyond their immediate surrounds. One teen told The Times that she now dreams of travelling of the world, while another says she aspires to become a dentist in São Paulo. However, Enoque also complained of the significant downsides. “It changed the routine so much that it was detrimental,” he stated. “In the village, if you don’t hunt, fish and plant, you don’t eat.” “Some young people maintain our traditions,” TamaSay Marubo, 42, added. “Others just want to spend the whole afternoon on their phones.” ‘Young people have gotten lazy because of the internet.’ Tribespeople became so addicted that Marubo leaders, fearing that history and culture — which is passed down orally — could be lost forever, they have now limited access to the internet for two hours each morning, five hours each evening, and all day Sunday. But parents still worry the damage may already be done. Another father, Kâipa Marubo, said he’s anxious about his children playing violent first-person shooter games. “I’m worried that they’re suddenly going to want to mimic them,” he stated. Meanwhile, others say that they’ve fallen victim to internet scams given that they lack digital literacy, while many youngsters are chatting with strangers on social media. Flora Dutra, a Brazilian activist who works with indigenous tribes, was instrumental in helping connect the Marubo to the internet. She believes anxieties about the internet are inflated, and asserts that most tribespeople “wanted and deserved” access to the world wide web. Still, some officials in Brazil have criticised the rollout to the remote communities, saying special cultures and customs could now be lost forever. “This is called ethnocentrism,” Ms Dutra said of such critiques. “The white man thinking they know what’s best.”

Didn't want to start a new thread so this is where this story is going. Dead at nursing home. Alive at funeral home. Dead at hospital. https://abcnews.go.com/US/woman-believed-dead-hospice-care-found-alive/story?id=110792361 The "unusual" incident began Monday morning, according to Lancaster County Chief Deputy Ben Houchin. The woman had been transported from a nursing home, where she had been declared dead at around 9:44 a.m. local time, to the Butherus-Maser & Love Funeral Home in Lincoln, according to the Lancaster County Sheriff’s Office. Authorities responded to the funeral home after an employee noticed the woman was breathing and "instantly called 911" at approximately 11:44 a.m. Monday, according to Houchin. Funeral home staff conducted CPR on the woman -- identified by authorities as Constance Glantz of Lincoln -- and she was transported to a local hospital alive, Houchin said. Glantz ultimately died at the hospital at approximately 4 p.m. Monday, Houchin said. Her family has been notified, he said.

I like capitalism which socializes the losses but privatizes the profits. That's the best capitalism.
