"Almost out of shampoo, better add it to my shopping list."
And then forget in 5 minutes cause I was in the shower.

Also android: has never heard of bluffing.

How would you propose we actually combat climate change?
solutions that dont disrupt the 99%'s way of life
This is not possible. Barring some miracle technologies being developed, we would have to radically change our standards of living and give up our modern convenient lives to make meaningful changes.

Takeaways from Tuesday’s elections: Democrats win across the spectrum as voters reject Trump | CNN Politics
Every county in VA moved further to the left except for four, some of them by double digits.
The VA and NJ governor races weren't even close.
Mississippi flipped a couple state seats and broke the Republican supermajority.
Georgia elected two Democrats in red areas to state positions that haven't been held by Democrats in a long time.
And then of course there's CA Prop 50, which cancels out Texas' redistricting and was done via the will of the people.
Overall a very good night!

A simpler time
Man, back in those days I thought we were truly in the post-racism era. Then I grew up and saw how the world really was, and social media happened and allowed all the awful people in the world to find each other.

T. Rex didn't exist until about 70 million years after Stegosaurus was gone, so one of them had time traveling powers.

Why Won’t U.S. Politicians Say “Genocide”?
Reply in thread
To add to this, genocide is actually a pretty wide term with a lot of different ways if manifests in the real world. There's everything from the Holocaust, European colonization of the Americas, to the current situation in Palestine. I think it's an easy trap for people to fall into to say that because situations aren't exactly equal that one is a genocide and one is not.

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may be able to refuse a field sobriety test and opt for a chemical test (breath or blood) instead with no penalty. That's the case in my state and many others.
You can also generally refuse a chemical test as well, but doing so will likely get your license suspended.
But check your local laws to be sure.

Why is Chicago so violent?
OP have you ever been here? The biggest threats I face daily are gaggles of yuppie wine moms taking up the whole sidewalk with their double wide strollers.

What kind of ROI did they promise to their investors?

This is speculation but I'd bet there was some amount of less-than-voluntary aspect to the construction of at least some of the pyramids. As in "we'll pay you, but this is your job for the next 30 years while you're not harvesting."

Monkeys are pretty smart, obviously not people smart but they're a whole tier above cats and dogs. I doubt a water gun would work at a deterrent once they realize it's only water.

TNG is the epitome of competence porn. With the exception of Barclay, everyone is pretty much extremely capable at all times except when the plot includes some space shenanigans that make them less so, like turning into kids or losing your psychic powers.

Democrat wins Kentucky state Senate special election
Reminder, do not listen to the doomers who have told you that elections would be canceled or rigged.
Dozens of elections have taken place over the last year, and the Democrats have flipped 21 percent of GOP-held legislative seats in 2025 and are currently +13 compared to 2024. GOP has flipped 0. There has been a blue wave so far that has affected special Congressional elections, gubernatorial and mayoral races, all the way down to local school boards.
This district that Clemons won was, I believe, Harris +5 in the presidential election. Quite a swing here, as we've seen over and over in 2025.
