I think that electing someone as deranged as Trump — who basically would try anything and everything that a sane person wouldn’t risk out of self-preservation, we basically saw a speedrun of finding out all the weaknesses and exploits of our government, combined with proving that impeachment and removal is basically impossible as long as one party is in collusion with the president.

We might have gotten here anyway, but it might have been a decade or two rather than four short years.

And the Supreme Court wouldn’t look like it does and be doing what’s it’s doing, which is also now a speedrun of horror.

I’ll never forgive Americans for 2016.

Because they’re sexy. We’ve been over this.

It’s a frigging figure of speech. It doesn’t literally mean both options are “evil” anytime it is used. And you’re not “choosing evil” by voting for Biden — not for the people whose lives will be ruined if Trump wins. For many you are preventing evil.

If a few more people in a few states had chosen the “lesser evil” of Hillary over Trump, the Supreme Court wouldn’t be delivering supreme evil every few months for the foreseeable future.

(I don’t need to hear about how Hillary did a bad job in the election — it doesn’t change the fact that the consequences are what they are.)

Ubermeets

Well that sounds a lot more convenient.

By “fill it” I mean put the prescribed number of pills or quantity of liquid into the container. The prescription is not always for a set amount that would be pre-bottled. And sometimes if there is a shortage then they might give me some pills from one manufacturer and some equivalent pills from another manufacturer. (I’m not sure how this kind of stuff is never necessary in your system.)

You can get your prescription from any pharmacy, but you can only send a prescription to one pharmacy at a time. So if you choose the local CVS and they are taking a long time to fill it, you have to transfer the prescription to another pharmacy (even if it is just a different CVS store).

Are you saying that if you have a prescription, you can go to any pharmacy without pre-arranging anything, and they will give it to you? Are all pharmacies linked to a central system so they all know your prescriptions available and whether they’ve been filled?

It is crazy when you think about it. Everybody learns about right-wing takeovers of government in history and generally agrees the outcome is pretty horrible, and yet it just happens all over again. I guess fear is a hell of a drug.

Go to General > Keyboard > Text Replacement, and create an entry for each word you want, putting the same thing in the phrase field and the shortcut field. Then it won’t try to replace them every time.

What is wrong with you

Like when my kid is finished with his club after school and it’s raining and he’d like me to pick him up. Or he’s at school and realizes he forgot to take his medication. One time his bike was broken and he couldn’t ride it.

I’m glad for you that you never once had a need to call home. I congratulate you. Some people do need to, and I just hope they have a way.

The thing that pretty accurately predicts what I am trying to accomplish when I’m coding and more often than not generates useful code that comes next is fundamentally shitty because of what Robin Williams says here?

My theory had been ‘amburger in a cockney accent

an 🍔

Going crazy trying to think of what word you use for 🍔 that starts with a vowel.

Oh, and also I used to always get the Santa Fe chicken Gordita at Taco Bell until it went away.

At my first developer job 25 years ago, any time we made a change in the code we had to add a comment at the end of each modified line with our initials and the date, because we had no version control.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but it is actually “till” and “till” is not short for “until” (and “‘til” is not a word). “Until” actually came from “till”.

I’ve never heard anyone say “tell” to mean “till” so I won’t comment on that.

Not every joke is a homerun, but if you don’t roll the dice, you’ll never get a bullseye

If my grandmother had wheels she would have been a bike

Yeah but your eyes are right next to your brain also
