It’s not a long con, it’s a long shtick. And not as long as the Colbert Report.

But, yes we have no bananas…

Is that what the kids are calling it these days?

Tabby. A tab manager, but I mainly use it to search for tabs.

Brushing your teeth in the shower is like leaving the water running while you brush in the sink, except even worse.

Is Popular Mechanics just general science articles these days? This doesn’t seem related to the word “mechanics”…

Also WTF is with that image?

Not gyrocompasses that things like planes and missiles uses, just the kind low tech hikers use.

Or a team of jugglers.

And wtf is with the choice of “ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone” for the montage of assembling the robot?

You will fission your sides with laughter!

I think technically that counts as gruel. Don’t get me wrong, though, I’m all in favor of gruel, and the kind of thing your doing, but it’s a fun word to use.

I sometimes do something like this too, cooking oatmeal with extra water, some Better then Bouillon, some chopped onion, carrot or whatever vegetables I have handy. Maybe hot sauce or whatever spices I’m feeling. I haven’t done this in a while, thanks for reminding me, we’re getting into good weather for this kind of thing!

Interesting article, but was that stupid, presumably AI generated, picture really necessary?

I think they forgot to tell you that you aren’t supposed to talk about it. You’re not very good at the “shadowy” part.
