Beavis and Butt-Head was created by the American animator Mike Judge. He graduated with a degree in physics but struggled to connect with his work in computer science.

At around 84, my dad caused a small fender-bender, that's when my sister told him he had to stop driving. He couldn't turn his head to see behind him. That sucked for my sister, because it fell on her to get him out of the house for grocery shopping, etc. She was the only one who still lived in the same state. He ended up in an assisted living home for the last two years of his life with dementia.

Public transportation is great, but they don't go into the suburbs. I suppose Uber and Lyft are the solution there, but my dad had no idea how to do that, he didn't own a cell phone.

Capitalism has been fucking us hard for over 100 years, the offenses keep piling up, and only now are people starting to realize how bad it's gotten.

Faraday bag, so you have it for emergencies. As long as your "emergency" isn't checking TikTok every five minutes.

Addiction to phones is a hellava drug.

So, we're just going to ignore the title?

Yeah, that's for the best.

Hoping for January 21st, 2029.

Although some want him to stand trial, that's not going to happen. Best to just be rid of him, and not make him a martyr for the 33% who still inexplicably support him.

My hope is the people on the ground, in charge of the voting process, who work for the state, not the feds, will do their job. From what I've seen virtually all of them are dedicated to fair elections, which is why almost no fraud has been found thus far.

You can help by urging people in your circle to vote and letting them know that their employer must give them time off to vote, by law.

If you're tempted to help voters standing in long lines, say, by handing out water bottles, or letting them borrow a folding chair, you should check your state's "line warming" laws. You could contact your local officials and offer to provide such items ahead of time in a way that doesn't break the law.

Chocolate is fine, but I'd add a layer of cinnamon powder in the middle. I like cinnamon and chocolate together.

Three different Wikipedia sources:

Tiramisu is an Italian dessert of ladyfingers, coffee, mascarpone, eggs and cocoa.

[Ladyfingers] are low-density, dry, egg-based, sweet sponge cake biscuits roughly shaped like large fingers

Mascarpone is a soft Italian dairy product obtained by acid-heat coagulation of cream.

I could eat that anywhere.

There were many questions in the poll, below is a screen shot of the 17% number in context. You can find all of the poll results here:

Liar, liar, plants on fire, it was higher, much much higher.

Money aside, the publicity and legal precedent will also harm them.

Since this has been known since 2022, they should have fixed it by now. My guess is the fix is in the software and probably already exists. It was probably written as soon as the issue came to light, and is just waiting to be deployed.

Shuffling the ballots is also an easy fix, the excuses given not to do this are bogus.

Something fishy is going on. The point that this leaves the election open to legal challenges is the main issue, and perhaps the main intent.
