Why I never ever ever mention my Roma ancestry to any European, ever

The blank stare isn’t really indicative of daydreaming or thinking about a problem.

Nope - just nothing at all going on in there for a blissfully quiet few minutes.

It definitely looks like RBF though. People always used to think I was mad!

It’s gone viral …. This is about the 20th time I’ve seen this in the past couple of days!

(Good)

The ONLY reason I give a shit about July 4th this year is that it’s a long weekend and the last chance we’ll have to spend with family before we move out of state in two weeks.

I’m even glad it’s supposed to rain the entire time, so I won’t even feel pressured to celebrate with fireworks!

Absolutely….

When I’m tired, I sound just like their mom, haha. So does my husband.

We both have ADHD 🙃

Same

No shit!!! 🤣

I work in the AI field (f.k.a. Tech) and let me tell you: the only ones saying it will have a positive effect on the U.S. are the executives and their lickspittles.

AI may have a positive effect in Europe. They have rules and stuff there.

Seriously!

“The job of the Armed Forces is not to host drag shows…”

Ok - who told him about this?

After crossing the line, Pollywogs receive subpoenas to appear before King Neptune and his court (usually including his first assistant Davy Jones and her Highness Amphitrite and often various dignitaries, who are all represented by the highest-ranking sailors who are Shellbacks), who officiate at the ceremony, which is often preceded by a beauty contest of men dressing up as women, each department of the ship being required to introduce one contestant in swimsuit drag.

Line-crossing ceremony

I only cared when I was poor and living paycheck to paycheck.

I’m glad you’re here to tell us these things!

Guess what? This user has been avidly online since the BBS days and really … posters such as yourself were very annoying back then, too.

Keep working on it until you can coax her into either stepping inside or into an easily enclosable space, then to vet for a chip scan.

Best case scenario is that she belongs to someone who misses their baby girl.

Second best case is no chip or previous owner super-sucks and therefore - you get a new buddy.

We invited an abandoned gray girl in for wet food one day and she never left. Starting on her first night, she’d wake me up in the wee hours giving me tiny kisses on my eyelids, cheeks, forehead, or tip of my nose. We still have her 12 years later and she is the sweetest cat ever. Don’t fuck with her though - she will cut you 🤣

This seemingly simple thing enrages me on a daily basis.

How difficult can it fucking be to write some damn code to omit “the” from sorting if it is the first word of a title? JFC

If “the” appears first, then “ignore” must surely be a thing, right??

Blessed be the fruit.

Fair!

…and the women wash the dishes.

It does. My friend just got back from Tel Aviv last week and he had some pictures of ACAB graffiti on buildings there.

iPhone 15 (the most recent model without AI) is perfectly adequate for most people.
