That is a honey badger

We had a huuuuuge rooster when we first started keeping chickens that fought off large dogs on multiple occasions. Unfortunately he fought off the wife and the kids a few times as well, so he had to go.

He got after my 4 year old son once and pecked a hole in his shoulder before I got to him, but when I kicked him it was like kicking a bag of concrete. It hurt my foot enough I was sure I had killed him but he got up and walked off like nothing happened.

So they're saying it's not any more dangerous than hot branding.

Go to amazingribs.com and check out the bbq sauce recipes - a not-as-sweet honey mustard sounds like you'd dig Columbia Gold. Might dig Alabama White Sauce if you like mayo.

As far as things to go on them, you might try nopalitos instead of pickles.

I toyed with marking this NSFW

This was gyros, so completely different recipe; I would do a pineapple for al pastor though

 

I got a new Weber 26" mastertouch to replace my busted 18" kettle; paired with a Vortex coal-thing and an al pastor spit I rocked chicken gyros tonight.

Dig a pit, build a fire there, then once it gets going you cover it with dirt and place your plates in the dirt. Wait about 4 hours and then use a rake to find them. Nice and toasty.

nmh is the way

I watched Turbo Kid based off of this. It sucks. There's no real acting, no one is afraid of raiders on bikes, etc. No one in this movie provides a believable threat; even the main villian (not Michael Ironside, it's Skeletron or whatever) looks like a wish.com version of Walton Goggins in a shitty mask. There is no comparison between this and Mad Max.

If the NSA really does have such formal and strict rules

Are you serious? Such formal and strict rules that you can't talk about your genitals in a work-provided medium without fear of retribution? You're gonna be shocked when it's revealed they had to wear business casual and had to comb their hair as well.

I work in a very left leaning org and if I mentioned something as mundane as having pubic hair in our chat I'd be fired immediately.

What about a chat where a group of men discuss the pros/cons of a vasectomy?

Lol, yeah that would absolutely not be something I talked about with coworkers at work. Ever.

It’s obvious that at the NSA, this kind of discussion was just acceptable.

Why is it obvious? Why would the NSA of all places have literally the most liberal code of conduct of any office in the history of civilization? There is no office environment on the planet where talking about your genitals, your "penetration enthusiasm" or the intensity of ass-hair laser sessions will be acceptable.

Am...am I taking the bait or something? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills, and that maybe I'm just feeding a troll?

 

What are industry best practices for this stuff? Do you want a separate fabric for dev and prod? Just separate zones?

My company doesn't connect any fabrics (1 switch=1fabric) and it seems inefficient and a giant pain in the ass, as we move hosts around like we're getting paid for it. What do all of you do?

 

See title; I'm considering it, but the courses bundles are expensive

I hate the prep work for these but it always ends up being worth it.

 
 
 

I have a friend in Indiana that's currently going blind (he's legally blind and has a degenerative condition, I honestly don't know the exact specifics of his diagnosis). He's currently worried about losing his job, financial security, etc. I get the feeling that he's really not planning ahead - everything I hear from him is regarding the impending loss of his house, who will care for his dogs, and how there's no help in his area. I've looked up resources in Indiana and found a lot and sent them to him, but part of my (admittedly uninformed) advice has been to move to an area that's more walkable (he still has his drivers license but shouldn't be driving as he has almost no peripheral vision) and an area with a lower LOC (he says rent is around 2-3k for an apartment, in my area it's closer to 1k for a small house), things like that. His job is remote, but he's worried about losing it as his sight degrades, since he has to see the screen at the moment, but I'm advising to look into screen reader assistive tech for that (which the company should provide).

I guess my question is: how realistic is my advice versus his concerns? I feel like he should be looking for a new location RIGHT NOW while he isn't forced to make a decision, I feel like there are more resources than he realizes, and I feel like his area is pretty expensive compared to some of the lower COL locations in the country. If anyone has any experiences in this sort of situation I'd appreciate your take on what he should be planning for, or really any sort of advice to give him.

 

Super stoked about using Piped. I've created an account on piped.video, found a playlist, all that; I can't figure out how to play all the items in the playlist though - I seem to only be able to play them individually. How do I play everything in a playlist without having to select them individually each time? I'm using the browser interface at the moment.

 

I've been fostering a family member for a month or so, and it all came to a head today. My wife and I tried, but the behavior was just too much for us to feel safe with our existing children. I hate that we're giving up and I hate the circumstances that caused this, but it is what it is. If you're in the same place please don't beat yourself up; sometimes you can want something really bad and it still not be right for you.
