Horses know how the world works, that's why they're always giving it the middle finger.

My favorite thing about quantum physics is that Schrodinger's Cat was presented as a criticism. It was the most ridiculous extension of quantum superposition that Schrodinger could come up with. But then all the quantum physicists went, "YES! That's a perfect way to explain it. Let's teach that to middle schoolers!"

According to their press kit, their casino alone has 93,000 feet. All of them square for some reason.

Data uses the short a and Yar uses the long a, so would we pronounce this "Yay-ta" or "Yah-ta?" And how fast can Janeway rip them apart?

Edit: Yar not Tasha. And yet, I still refuse to learn any lessons about commenting before my first cup of raktajino.

Good luck when E finds out it's B tier and goes NC. Everything you type will look like internet brand names from the 00s.

I want to live on a planet where the sky has a corner.

It all becomes normal after a while but I still stress about the things that could take it away. Treefalls during big storms and fire hazards and places where people might trip and gutter overflows and was that a carpenter ant and and and.

A now, ten years later, we're doing some minor remodeling and a lot of those money stresses and fears of the unknown are coming back.

I kind of miss the magazine that only gets read in the bathroom.

The tiny morsel at the end was enough for me to formally request a Scotty / Pelia spin-off mini-series. Please and thank you.

My state just made self-serve gas a thing so I got an electric. If I'm going to have to fuel up my own car, I'll do it in my carport.

I think it's Nomad fused into a lamp.

 

Johnston... previously pleaded guilty to a felony count of interfering with law enforcement during civil disorder in July 2024.

The 56-year-old actor was initially arrested in June 2023 after the FBI tweeted a photo requesting information about his identity. He is alleged to have led a group to the “front line of rioters confronting the police who were defending the entrance” to the Capitol, helping to launch an assault against a group of officers.

 

US Copyright Office granted an exemption allowing third parties to diagnose and repair commercial equipment — including the ones that make your McFlurries.

The decision is part of the Copyright Office’s final rule granting exemptions to Section 1201 of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). This exemption-making process happens every three years and is supposed to ensure that the DMCA doesn’t negatively impact people trying to use copyrighted material.

Worth nothing that DMCA exceptions are reviewed on the same 3 year cycle and are frequently revoked. So if you're a McD ice cream fan, enjoy it while you can.

 

Youtube decided to surface this classic Alasdair Beckett-King video for me, now I'm passing on the favor.

 

If that doesn't work try sudo systemctl restart engines && sudo engage

I know we've already done Mot's apple sauce, but I pictured the Mott's Apple Cannibal as Mot. Now you all have to see it too.

Does anyone know where I can buy 3 to 5 pair of normal looking human hand (or finger) gloves within the next week or so?

I finally thought of an idea for a Halloween Zoom-based costume contest to go as an AI generated person, and one of the key ingredients of it is WAY too many fingers. But as I've searched for non-monster looking latex costume gloves and I'm coming up empty. I assumed I have lots of options but that none would fit my XL sized hands. But instead I just find zombie, ape, alien, or skeleton. Some of the 4 finger alien gloves could work, but its not quite what I'm going for.

Update: Thanks all. Between magic trick thumbs, dismembered prop hands, and tiny novelty hands I should have what I need to put my costume together!
Update 2: I just placed an order for 14 hands and 10 thumbs. I love Halloween.

 
 

I happened to notice today that the "Itchy and Scratch Land" episode of The Simpsons aired just over 30 years ago (on Oct. 2nd, 1994).

That means that, for a full 3 decades now, I have checked every single gift, souvenir, and tourist shop I've been in for a Bort plate. Its not obsessive and I'm not going out of my way, but if I see a rack of novelty license plates I make a point to look for Bort.

Anyone else, or am I alone in this particular pop culture predilection?

 

Thought about posting this to lemmybewholesome, but thought it might not fit everyone's definition.

The weird get weirder. He apparently spent $4000 to smash a guitar that was next to a signature.

A man who for some reason smashed up a guitar with a hammer in Texas may have thought it had been signed by Taylor Swift — but it was not, in fact, an official Swift-certified guitar.

But contrary to media reports, the guitar the man destroyed had not been signed by Swift — and was not a certified official guitar used by the singer, a source close to her merch company confirmed to Variety. The organization that held the auction, the Ellis County WildGame Dinner, presented the guitar with a signed CD insert but the guitar itself was not signed.

 

Some North Carolina cities were forecasted to receive 10 times their monthly rainfall amount.

The emergency flash flood warning issued by the NWS says that at least 3,000 people are at risk of emergency flooding downstream of the Broad River and Lake Lure Dam

This is in additional to the flash flood warnings happening all over the state.
