Heard of that book from Quinns Ideas. I’ll add it to my list of reads.

Dune was supposed to be just a story. You weren’t supposed to bring this aspect of the books, or any aspect for that manner, into the real world.

You have been cordially invited to the Ministry of Love good citizen. A black van with blacked-out windows will be arriving soon.

I feel ya. I work next to someone that fits this description and she is fucking exhausting.

While you’re at it, if you haven’t done so check out any of the Discworld books by Terry Pratchet. Very good reads.

I’d recommend Dresden Files series if you want something with a wizard in it.

I realize this is probably a silly question, but can he even do that? The power of pardon only extends to federal crimes. The state of Michigan could still press charges and there is fuck all Dumb Dumb can do about it. Unless I miss something here.

(This is ignoring whatever his cronies at state level can do to obfuscate the situation of course)

Yeah. That’s fair.

Some years back i was leaving the gym (I live in the US by the by) and I found a debit card. Now the only identifying info on it was the bank associated and the name and such. I wasnt going to take it home and try and track down the person who owned it. So I took it to the associated bank, grabbed a deposit slip and wrote a note on it and dropped in the deposit box. I assume it was returned, but I honestly don’t know. Felt this was the best approach given the circumstances.

Saving this for later.

So they need more suckers to buy in so the people who have massive stakes in the stock can sell and minimize their losses. Am I following this right?

If I may make a recommendation on this one. I would at least read the first story about the transient riots, which concludes with the issue titled “Up On The Roof.” Should give you an idea of what the world is like, the main character. From there, it’s up to you if you want to continue. There is a broader narrative after that, but this short bit at the beginning should be enough to get an idea of whether you like it or not. Happy reading.

You made my day bringing up one of my favorite holiday movies 😁

Unless I’m mistaken I believe he is leaving current leadership there in place. However the seat will open in 2026 so 🤷‍♂️

Didn’t get all the clown makeup blended right.

One Finger Death Punch

Fellow ohioan as well, and since he has been our senator, I’ve seen him as the walking definition of the German word backpfeifengesicht. He seemed like a weasel to me from the get-go, and I could not for the life of me figure out why.

This is good news to me since I don’t play twitch shooters.

As of right now? It’ll probably be the drop in support next year. While I have my complaints about Microsoft or any major corporation, for that matter, I’m not the most tech savvy. If Microsoft were to come out and say support is extended, I’ll stick with W10. If they come out with an OS that allowed me to pick and choose what software I wanted and didn’t load it with a shit ton of bloat ware I’d be all over that like shit on velcro. I know these are pipe dreams, and I will most likely move. For now, I will stay the current course until it’s time to jump into the Linux pool and learn how to swim.

Honestly my ability to game has what has kept me out of linux. I trialed PopOs a while ago. I will more than likely switch to it when shit starts getting super annoying.
