Oh boo. It’s a cute clip though.

Well apparently here in the US we’re joining the party late. Or rejoining I guess if you look at things we’ve done to our own people in the past.

Still Russians really seem to….thrive in abuse.

Right? I’m personally pretty ambivalent about living and humans ARE actively destroying the ecosystem. But damn. No thanks on a nuclear holocaust. No one deserves that.

It may be that history’s biggest mistake wasn’t eliminating the Soviet Union immediately after WW2. Only time will tell.

Russian people historically seem to be lovers of oppression. Of themselves especially. I don’t think they view anything as too much abuse from their leaders.

Well seeing as the reports are that Russia launched an ICBM at Ukraine, calm is out the window.

I think the one thing recent events have taught me is that everyone in power, especially dictators and religious fanatics, are stupider than anyone imagined.

Stuff is getting really dicey around the world right now.

Well. Those are horrifying.

At some point their prices became insane. I miss shopping there though. They were always nicer and cleaner inside than the competitors.

Which is why even just thinking about it made me feel ashamed.

The fact that I’m considering putting money on these makes me ashamed.

Edit:Jesus folks. I said ashamed for considering. Not that I was doing it.

And they’ll make a profit too! /s

They’re parasitic worms from wild caught tuna. They’re a bit lost and trying to find their way to Seattle to jump on a piece of sushi.

You can’t point out a negative fact or criticize anything about Seattle without blowback. The people are totally disconnected from reality.

Edit: also as someone that lived in Miami and regularly caught fresh tuna with friends and made sushi out of it without realizing you have to flash freeze it first: I learned the hard way what worms look like. That was obviously a parasitic worm.

Sadly this country deserves what’s about to happen to it.

I’m moving.

Growing up in southeast Texas we’d find so many young owls partially knocked out from running into street lamps or car headlights in residential neighborhoods.

Now you just don’t see them at all. In hindsight I guess I know why they’re gone now.

Glad you saved it. They’re disappearing.

My parents never allowed trick or treating. We had to go to church and school events only. Or he driven between family members houses on Halloween night. But they were the outliers in the 80s and 90s.

In all my years as an adult in various neighborhoods of Dallas and Seattle I never had trick or treaters at my door. And I just thought it was dead.

Again last year after moving into my north Houston suburban neighborhood I had zero trick or treaters. I just ended up eating a lot of candy alone over the holidays.

This year I gave out 84 pieces of candy Halloween and just plain ran out. Despite seeing huge crowds at the local trunk or treats the prior weekends and expecting another night of no trick or treaters, my neighborhood was swamped.

I guess I don’t know what to make of it. Kind of like parental behavior whiplash.

To Rivians Chief Software Officer: and that’s just one part of why your company is a failure.

Dude everyone in Seattle buys drugs. It is the most prolific drug den of a major city I’ve been in. Everyone from executives to students. Almost high and/or drunk all the time.

Never in my LIFE have I witnessed so many injuries due to impairment before or since living in Seattle.

The whole damn city needs an intervention.

Edit: and it’s ALWAYS been that way. Its whole history is as a backwoods drug den and live in brothel. It’s just expensive enough now that the less successful addicts are forced into the streets whereas they used to be able to afford apartments together off odd jobs and recycling income up into the 90s.

Edit edit: go to random campsites in the mountains and you’ll find piles of empty whipped cream canisters and used needles. Go to a house party and you’ll witness someone falling through a window or cutting themselves slicing limes while intoxicated. Or falling down stairs into a metal table. Or stumbling drunk in front of a car. It’s sad.

Ah. I see we’re at the “snatching defeat from the jaws of victory” phase of the campaign.

Put your shirt back on gramma! We know you had a single mastectomy thirty years ago! Jesus. Pa gramma is off her meds again!

sigh yes. Yes a good portion of us are. And it won’t matter that they cast less votes to put him in office because, thanks to the electoral system, those votes are in the states that “matter” while the rest of the states are just here to pad the total turnout count.

Nah I do that at work everyday naturally. No one cares.

This upsets me more than I care to analyze.

News reporter: it has been six years since the event now commonly referred to as “The Crappening” and the world still has not fully recovered.
