I’m sleepy and read that as “Biden voters, how do you dry your ass afterward?” and was very confused. But like… not as confused as I probably should have been.

Hey man, all cats are grey in the dark.

The sexualization and desexualization of M&M ladies were both very successful marketing schemes. How often do you get prime time Fox News Bros yelling about M&Ms, left leaning news outlets and famous and non famous folks on every social media platform making fun of the Fox News Bros who are so upset about the less sexy M&M ladies? So much free marketing, just by putting them in more comfortable shoes.

It used to be, but at this point in history, that’s like $300 worth of bacon.

That is strange. It’s a felony if they have score marks here in California, but otherwise ok. Last year somebody dumped a bunch of seeds all along the weedy sides of several busy roadways here. They grew beautifully and they all disappeared on the same day. I don’t know if it was the authorities or the person that planted them or someone else. Maybe it was the deer.

I’m sure the deer are fine. These assholes are eating all kinds of things that are known to be “deer resistant” or “poisonous” or “covered in hot pepper wax and garlic juice.” If they got a tummy ache it certainly didn’t dissuade them from coming back for more. Assholes.

Yeah, that’s the one. They are legal to grow, but illegal to [redacted]. I thought the deer would avoid them, since they are poisonous even before they mature into [redacted]. No such luck.

I wish. This was at the garden store. I planted the same variety and the deer were like “For meee?!!” and that was that.

My apologies for contributing to the delinquency of the neighborhood deer.

It’s always hard to choose the best angle:

Ironing is for crafts and sewing.

I think it was millipedes.

One of the largest of these was Arthropleura Armata, a genus of millipede that inhabited coal forests and could grow up to 2.5 metres in length.

We call this “doing paperwork.”

I’m pretty sure dark Brandon is Biden’s millennial Twitter account manager. I don’t think he’ll show up for the debate.

Yes, if you’re looking at it from a single perspective, you can be very clear on what they were or weren’t. You seem to be pretty invested in labeling them according to your own.

Yes you are! And a handsome one at that.

Were the Cardassians terrorists too, or do they get a pass since their actions were Official Military Operations ™? It was certainly a hotly debated topic among Federation members. You can call it black and white if you want to, there were Star Fleet officers that did. There were also respected, high ranking officers, deep into their careers that joined their cause, including Chakotay. Star Trek is nothing if not nuanced.

Half of Janeway’s (the lady above) crew on Voyager were members of the Maquis before they joined her. The Maquis were freedom fighters in the resistance against the Cardassian occupation/colonization in the demilitarized zone. The Cardassians (brutal, planet-hungry, militaristic race) considered them terrorists, the Federation considered them dangerous traitors. Voyager was on a mission to catch the group of Maquis under Chakotay’s command on the Valjean (named for the Les Miserables character imprisoned for a just crime) when both ships got tossed 75 years journey from home. The two captains decided to merge their crews and Chakotay became Janeway’s first officer after Chakotay sacrificed his ship to save members of both crews.

People have (light hearted) animosity toward Janeway mainly because she had to make a hard decision when two crew members got merged into one in a transporter accident. The resulting person was a new being who wanted to live, but keeping him alive would mean sacrificing the two original people. She also fucked around with the timeline so much that one of the time cops went insane trying to fix the issues she was continuously creating. And she’s a bit cranky when she doesn’t get any coffee.
