I thought I was in the AnarchyChess community.

It was an internal decapitation, provided this isn't a second similar case I hadn't heard about (which would be an awful trend). The whole thing was a mess, with the doctor trying to cover it up and then brush it off like it was a Three Stooges act instead of people's lives and emotions.

I knew there were more niche types than the A, B, and Rh, but I had no idea we were up to 48. I wonder how much the lesser known types interfere with transfusions.

I like the concept, and I think it would fit the definition of democracy since it reflects the will of the people. The main issue I see is that it still remains stable if a majority superclass oppresses a minority underclass. Tyranny of the Masses is a problem with most forms of democracy, not just yours.

One tactic to mitigate it is by only doing a random sample each time instead of a full sample. So randomly select 20% of the population, require them to vote, and if 50% of them vote in favor then there's no election. That only works if the mechanism to randomly select people can't be tampered with, though.

Use enough of them, flip the dirty side down, and you could redo your floors!

Almost certainly, but we as a species can dare to hope.

The obvious answer is to treat wood cutting boards as single-use and continually buy more from FauxPseudo after each meal.

What does the '38' mean? I thought it was the age of the women, but there's no age given for the men, so that doesn't seem likely. So instead it makes it sound like one is a cyborg named 'Briana 38'.

Sometimes as low as $1 per day, sometimes up to $50 per day, all dependent on the state and specific prison. Hawaii doesn't charge, so get locked up there if you follow through with this plan!

Sure, private prison execs already get to hoover up taxpayer money, and they profit from the slave labor, but how else would they get filthy rich if they stopped profiting off you just because you finished your sentence?

The first besides that manhole cover from the underground nuclear test, right?

 

Wanted a loaded hot dog but found out half way through we only had mini-dogs.

Mini hotdogs and cheddar cheese broiled on a hotdog bun. Loaded up with rice, broccoli, oyster sauce, and Sriracha.

Ended up being delicious. A real hotdog would have been better; the minis kept falling out or moving with each bite. I'd put the Sriracha under the rice next time. It mostly ended up smearing on my face.

Posting a missing classic from my phone for each reaction meme I steal.

 

I saw an article about keelhauling and realized I don't know much about pirates (those on the sea, not the internet) beyond what I've seen in movies. Tell me your most interesting pirate facts. Mythical or historical.

My son is obsessed with Mario LEGO and had his own little table in the corner of the LEGO room. It was overflowing and my wife hated how messy it looked. While she was away for a few days I made this.

Two partial sheets of 3/4" birch plywood with French cleats attached, painted white, were mounted on the walls. Then the desk just slots into the second-lowest cleat, using the bottom cleat as support.

As he grows we can raise the desk a couple times, eventually bringing it up to 29" from the ground which is about regular desk height.

I also made a few shelves and a box for him to organize with out of the plywood scrap.

He likes that he can rearrange his storage as he pleases. I made a couple more medium-sized shelves that aren't pictured, and I may someday make a corner triangular shelf for Bowser to sit on.
