Neato

I know jack shit about photo editing, but did this person just de-saturate the colors? The eyes and hair look like they are less vivid. Even the background looks different., less dark and more blue?

Your teeth are natural mind-control blockers. Dentin is the best radiation-absorber this side of lead paint!

We have never rejected fanaticism.

The revolution was built on fanatical ideas and ideals of American exceptionalism and where was propaganda to support that.

The civil was started primarily because the wealthy didn’t want to give up free labor (slaves) but a lot of individuals supported it because they felt the big scary northern government was attacking their homes and they had to defend them and their way of life (still, slavery,).

Pretty much every war is sold based on fanaticism. The Spanish American war was wholesale created by yellow journalism. The world wars were a bit different because America was very isolationist then and it needed a push.

Overall America isn’t an exception here. Most humans need to be fanatical to really do big things like war or revolution.

Any outdoor cats without tags that you can convince to live with you is legally yours.

Don’t let your cats outdoors, people. Free cats.

I’d rather people not engage with it at all.

It really annoys me how often I see major media others citing reddit these days. It seems it really ramped up after the IPO. It’s never anything good either. They’re just either outsourcing basic journalism or complaining that reddit is too negative.

You can definitely hear it. You can hear someone on a voice call or talk radio pretty clearly just walking near them.

But this is really asking about the cars you can hear coming down the block that sounds like they’re trying to work out sore muscles with their subwoofers.

Welcome Maryland. This isn’t even slightly weird.

80% of new developments in America have HOAs. We’re totally fucked.

Yeah. I had assumed they infused, soaked or injected the ethanol after cooking the hot dogs.

Also ethanol doesn’t get entirely cooked out of food. It depends on the cooking method and how long. It can take hours for the majority to be cooked out. But unless your dish is mostly alcohol or you’re eating an absolute ton of it, it probably won’t matter for blood alcohol level. It will matter for any recovering alcoholics, though!

I don’t know what happens to hot dog meat if it’s soaked/injected with ethanol to get it to 12% alc/vol (can you even legally have a solid food that specifies a liquid volume %?) but I can’t expect it is anything good.

Which is weird because neither of those things are illegal. You can absolutely tape the radio. You just can’t distribute it. Just like you can copy your own media for your own use as much as you want.

This may just be a semantic argument. Media production can consider it piracy, but that’s irrelevant as it had no legal standing. Without a law prohibiting something, it’s legal. And the fact that they sued and lost means it was never illegal and the media companies can declare it “piracy” or “treason against Columbia Pictures” or whatever they want until they’re blue in the face but no one cares.

The VCR was invented, marketed, and sold to do this very thing. When the VCR first came out (same for betamax) they didn’t sell pre-recorded tapes because the only way they had to make those was to manually record them individually in real-time which was prohibitively expensive. That’s also why movie rental places caught on: early VHS movies were too expensive for most to afford. But not too expensive for a business to rent hundreds of times.

Suffice to say: if recording TV was piracy, it wasn’t illegal and the people bitching had no way to enforce their will.

Those are. Just not in the abundance as the fall. And maybe not thawed everywhere.

You don’t have to turn camera on. In fact almost none of my teams calls use video. That would mean we’d all have to get dressed…

Call into a teams meeting and occasionally say something (don’t actually unmute).

Kellogg, Post and Graham were all fucked.

They need to learn about bananas.

Also like, 100% of all agriculture and livestock. Fuck. Look at what we did to wolves. If god didn’t want us to fuck around with genetics they wouldn’t have made them malleable.
