Fixed collapsed kitchen bookcase, watched a shelf collapse again, emptied it, hauled down the one from boys' old room, rebuilt both into 1 that works, cleaned & put things back on, 3hrs later still can't take pics of eBay stuff for sale b/c kitchen’s still the same disaster it was before all that. 👍

You can't even get the date right in your AI meme, let alone provide a citation. I think I'll pass on this one.

"Bookcase in kitchen that's been holding kitchen stuff since 2014 just collapsed, and I can't do half my things until all the kitchen stuff is cleared off every horizontal surface and put some other place that doesn't currently exist" should also be.

Because there are so many possible extreme stupidities, it's not possible to predict what the extremely stupid will do. But it'll be extremely stupid.

It took a few hours, but I just received a reply that they'd reviewed the report and taken action, and thanked me for looking out for the community. flow.club is the site, it's the only way I get anything done, and that was a good response.

Today at a virtual co-working site, the male volunteer host began our session shirtless, in bed, and turned his cam off as soon as I started mine. I left, reported him to site support, then returned and told him what I'd done where anyone could see it for the rest of the session…

S-A-L-U-T-E technique, for reporting ICE
Spread information, not panic. When reporting or signal boosting potential threats, provide as much information as possible. The acronym "salute" (S A L U T E) is shown as a mnemonic, as follows:

S = Size/strength: "5–6 D H S officers"
A = Actions/activity: "Standing outside Burger King talking to each other"
L = Location/direction: "Astoria on 33rd Street and Astorial Boulevard"
U = Uniforms/clothes: "Plain clohtes with ballistic vests labeled Department of Homeland Security"
T = Time and date of observation: "7:55 A M, July 26"
E = Equipment and weapons: "2 clipboards. One has flexcuffs on his belt"

Not a useful tweet: "ICE spotted"
Where? When? What are they doing? How many? What are they carrying? Use your judgement! Take photos/videos.

I'm getting stickers for my modular synth case, and googled teapot stickers. This one came up. I was like… 418, what http error is that? Explanation of "The HTTP 418 I'm a teapot status response code": developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/W...

After which that goes away and everyone keeps talking normally. This is why action movies are for young people. They don't know anything yet, so nothing knocks them out of the story. See also: I've already seen 50 variations of the joke in that meme.

Movie we watched last night: Huge shootout, automatic weapons, shotguns, pistols, in reverberant concrete parking garage. But when someone tosses a grenade in from the outside THAT'S when the main character yells "Cover your ears!" After which, audio attenuates and there's a tinnitus whine.

It's not as easy as just moving, and age works against you. As someone currently making the attempt, I'd suggest if you're serious, you start looking into that.

This is an entirely new phenomenon because before the vaccine, most women who survived measles were immune because they had it when they were young. But now, idiots who refuse to get vaccinated are giving birth to babies with measles. Two babies have died. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

America had wiped out measles. Now babies are infected at birth.
Congenital measles has rarely been seen in the U.S. That’s changing as vaccination declines and more pregnant women become infected.
