I particularly like the “in these unprecedented times” bit. Every company I’ve called in the past 5 years has had that line on their recording. When every time is unprecedented, no time is unprecedented.

Literally noticed it for the first time typing the aforementioned comment. It is indeed weird to me…

It is the Internet after all, but your comment seemed to be obviously satire to me. You did have me in the first half, not going to lie.

See for yourself here! Apparently the call sounds like “go-way”, which I can KIND OF get from the audio clip on that page? Not sure I would have naturally made that connection, but sure.

Seriously. This is another example of robbing Dick to pay Harry.

These storms are getting stronger because of climate change and messing with the environment. Let’s mess with it some more!

No, they did not. I picked it up again a few months ago after playing it for a while years ago. Stopped playing it after a few days of intermittently opening it because the algorithm constantly raided me and moving the dwellers around to properly defend was still a nightmare. Stopped being fun real quick so I remembered why I quit originally, and quit again.

I know, I know.

I’m well aware that this is what I’m doing:

But while he’s not incorrect to use that title, he wields it as a badge of authority. It’s also not incorrect to call him Phil McGraw, and doesn’t give him that authority. So that’s why I’m an old man yelling at a cloud about this.

Also, PTs don’t require a doctorate degree. But some do carry it.

I really wish people would stop referring to Phil McGraw as a doctor. He holds a PhD, and therefore is as much of a doctor as your physical therapist. Although I would argue that the physical therapist is more of a doctor given their knowledge being more directly related to medicine.

Phil McGraw has not held a medical license or license related to the field of his PhD since 2006.

I will now step down from my soap box

You’re pretty spot on there! Wouldn’t be hard to program a controller to measure the voltage on the battery, then send run signal to generator to turn on. The when it hits a mark 80% charged, probably, send kill signal to the generator. With this controller, it would also pair nicely with solar, which it sounds like OP is pursuing as well

OP, for maximal efficiency and integration with solar, batteries are an absolute must. Much higher startup cost, but much less expensive in the long term.

God yes. The first one that came to mind!

Could the coffee table not be moved closer to the couch? My back hurts just looking at the person’s posture…

Fuck the other two states, amirite?

Uncropped version here doesn’t have text.

Seems like just a visual joke.

She filmed a video of herself “mid-meltdown” over the extreme tariff, posting it on her social media.

Anything for social media clout. These kinds of people get no sympathy from me.

That was a really fun rabbit hole to explore regarding this specific tribe! Found this YouTube video regarding multiple native tribes in the region: warning nonsexual nudity

Specific part pertaining to this tribe at this timestamp

If you haven’t sold yet and aren’t retiring in the next 5 years, hold. Good buying opportunity.

That was a great movie

Words without actions are meaningless. They want to be held accountable, but only so long as they still own the team and still take in boatloads of money.

Yes, they are literally called Ninja swords in the legislation.

Yes, it is hilarious.

Even prior to the current political climate, police overreach in hospitals has happened multiple times. Usually involves police arresting a nurse/doctor for not doing what the police want (even if the medical staff are in the right). Medical staff loses pay for the day, patient harm does happen because of involuntary abandonment, and no punishment is metered for the police.

So yeah, doctors and nurses are quite helpless here.

Could ICE be liable for death or injury incurred from deporting a citizen?

Yes, but only if the court will uphold the law. And at that point, the punitive measures can’t bring back life or brain function.
