Even if you perfectly solve crashes (doubtful, definitely not something that exists right now), the problems of microplastic pollution from tires and emissions from electricity generation are non-trivial.

Everyone who thinks they could take a huge number of squirrels should consider what the jaws of a squirrel look like, how they were made for cracking open hard nuts, and what they could do to you if even one had it in its head to really hurt you:

I don’t think I could take more than a couple at a time, even if they weren’t coordinated in any way.

The traditional way French gourmands eat ortolans is to cover their heads and face with a large napkin or towel while consuming the bird. The purpose of the towel is debated. Some claim it is to retain the maximum aroma with the flavour as they consume the entire bird at once, others have stated "Tradition dictates that this is to shield – from God's eyes – the shame of such a decadent and disgraceful act", and others have suggested the towel simply hides the consumers spitting out bones.

Hide your sins from God with this one weird trick!

 

Some of the medications include:

  • Antidepressants
  • Antihistamines
  • Stimulants
  • Beta blockers
  • Diuretics
  • ACE inhibitors
  • Thyroid medication
  • Antipsychotics

Be sure to pay extra attention to any symptoms of heat exhaustion, stay hydrated, and in a cool area indoors when possible during heat waves.

Why even lock it if the code is on the door?

My husband and I still sometimes call to our cat by going “STIIIIINKYYYY!” in several of the voices Stimpy uses while looking for his fart. (Her name is not Stinky)

I ditched Ralphs (west coast Kroger) this year and switched to Aldi, everything is literally half the price there. And the produce is actually fresh! Maybe because people are actually buying it.

It’s inconvenient because I have to take the bus there and back, but half off is half off.

Really, nothing to do with the massive emissions testing fraud and associated legal costs?

God bless all the bots and brainless fucks cheering this clown into the championships of self made problems.

You can use an AI mushroom foraging guide, if you like it so much. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I’m more of a sewer than a knitter or crocheter, but I’ve heard AI patterns for knitting and crochet are really bad online now (and an utter waste of yarn and time).

You are way, way worse at spotting bots than you think you are.

Street view from Google Maps:

 

Inspired by watching my cat lay on her 6' (2 m) tall cat tower and sleep like a baby. Zero regrets, even if it makes us look like insane cat people for having a giant cat tower right in our living room. She lives here, she gets furniture too!

Alt text: a one panel comic drawn in the style of The Onion’s Stan Kelley that says “shelter from the storm”; three rain clouds that say “resurgent fascism”, “irreversible climate change”, and “impending economic collapse” are raining on a furry character, who is cheerfully whistling because they have an umbrella labeled “weed and furry porn” that is keeping them dry. Similar to The Onion comics, a smaller character representing the artist is in the corner, saying “weather proof.” The artist is CritterDome
