Dementia takes a long time to kill people. Especially if they’re surrounded by caretakers and servants. Until they stop drinking and die of dehydration, it’s really only heart failure/ stroke or falls that kill them. I doubt someone so narcissistic has a DNR or end of life directives.

It’ll be interesting to see how much longer he’ll be able to walk though. He’s unfortunately likely to finish out the term first.

You need to watch more OG Muppets then.

But also Bluey is good. Maybe not all the fucking merchandise though.

Mooching off of it seems acceptable too especially if you can manage to slow any of it down in the process.

Does calling them Soviets solve this? I’ve never liked the anti-communist implications of trashing the corrupt and flawed Soviet system.

Internal Russian resistance? Like that mercenary group maybe tried to do a couple years ago.

I hope you don’t live near an airport or shipping lane.

Stacked graph works to show total objects in space. Which the main concern, since they all need to play nice and avoid collisions.

Flipping the more consistent trend (junk parts) with the payload parts would have read better however.

Yeah rotate in 3D and it’ll fit nearly infinitely inside its outline. Unless you count the thickness of the crust or something topographical.

Some drivers suddenly become deaf but don’t suddenly stop driving though too.

We used to get caffeine free Diet Coke or Pepsi in the 80s for elementary school pizza parties.

It made the best burps.

This sounds like someone who doesn’t have an actual kid who’s got friends he doesn’t want to lose by moving to a far away place that may still be at risk of a right wing decline by the time we get there too.

Fits with the werewolf joke. But when our dog does it we call it bum scooting.

Great grandkids. Not grandkids.

Not much of my great grandparents furniture exists that I know of. A couple things my son’s great grandma still exist. But I expect he’ll be taking it to the dump when it’s time to clean out our house.

Especially with all the pesticides and fertilizer in those lawns. Might get rid of a few sooner.

Parts of the country are teaching Bible bullshit, banning books and indoctrinating kids with racist anti scientific garbage.

But it’s offset by all the places it isn’t happening. The US educational system is way too big and locally governed to generalize.

But anyway fuck Trump and his education secretary. We have a shitload of work to do to undo that, and if we can’t we’re fucking leaving before they can get to my child and family.

I thing that’s just the 1st gen AirPod stock image from Apple.

Like these are:

Batteries weren’t as good then and they needed the extra space.

True, but also I think it may be a coffee mug.

My first car was my dad’s clapped out ex work truck. And 85 F-150 with a quarter million miles, an extended cab (back bench seat but no back doors), and full 8’ bed. Nobody thought there were unnecessary in my rural neck of the woods, and most contractors had something similar even in the late 70s full size fords. Also it basically flexed in the middle over bumps.

Toyota popularized the extended cab minitruck in the 80s in my recollection. But when we lived near Detroit back then Yotas got a ton of shit from the buy America crowd. I don’t think the US brands offered them until a lot later (later gen S10s and Rangers).

Did Easter islanders have classes? They deforested that place pretty thoroughly.

Naw, those jump seats were only for emergencies and Toyota, Nissan etc had them for years too.

The Dodge Dakota was the first of the compact trucks to get big. Rangers were the last small American* truck sold, S10s went out just before it. When they replaced the Ranger with the Explorer Sport Trac is when the second row of seats got usable. Those things suuucked though.

*Even though it’s a Mazda, sort of.
