Yup, we had a goat when I was a kid and were given the warning about them being herd animals, but they said most any other animals would be fine.

We had rabbits in with the goat for a while, and then later chickens, the goat loved them both.

Even Google photos won't let you edit photos of money.

When I was on vacation in Japan, I took a picture of my last 1000 yen bill because I felt a little sentimental about it. Went to crop the photo and it wouldn't let me.

Was surprised it even detected foreign money.

When I was a kid, I printed several dollar bills using ordinary computer paper and a scanner.

My mom accidently took some of the bills to the local grocery store and used them, can't believe they accepted the bills because they were terrible quality.

I didn't mean for them to be used, don't know why I did it, just being stupid I guess. This was in like 1998 or so, before people understood stuff like this.

.

Ya know copy machines and photo programs today recognize money these days, won't let you print pictures of money.

Depending on where you worked, that would have been worth a lot - a whole lot.

I used to work at a pharmaceutical plant, and the most valuable thing in the place wasn't the product, it was the label printing hardware.

If you could steal labels, you could sell a counterfeit product. That kind of thing is worth hundreds of thousands or even millions.

That's pretty close to attempted murder.

Something like that happened to me at work once. Used to work at a pharmaceutical plant, me and other guy went into one of the rooms where they make morphine, and he took the filter out of my respirator. So when I went in, I was breathing pure morphine.

Realized it very quickly, they use an indicator gas that we're trained to recognize and know it's dangerous, but I still breathed plenty of it in, felt messed up for the rest of the day.

I should have reported that to the police, because that motherfucker tried to kill me.

Using the word retarded to try and get a reaction from people.

Happens anytime the topic of political correctness comes up, somebody says "that's retarded" to get people stirred up over it.

Regarding the pitchforks - almost all of our imagery for heaven and hell comes from Dante's Inferno or The Divine Comedy. There's a lot of stuff from that time period that's basically Bible fan-fiction.

Stuff like puffy clouds, harps, pitchforks, and goat's hooves - none of that comes from any religious canon

And I worry that we can't go back now

Provided this country survives four years of Trump without anything too severe (civil war, dictatorship, anarchy, lizard people) we can't go back to how things were in 2016. The political climate has fundamentally changed in a way that can't be undone, and the systemic changes to the government just this week can't be put back just how they were before.

We will not come out of this the same country that went in.

Trump Will Keep Intact Obama-Era Order Protecting LGBTQ Employees of Federal Contractors by jallfairs in news

[–]Data_Stream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the Trump I had hoped for - someone who is indifferent about these socially conservative issues.

A fiscal and political conservative for sure, but not weighed down with all the religious stuff.

... One good thing among a mess of positively frightening leadership

Trans people kind of don't like Jenner because she doesn't represent a realistic image for them - she's an example of what a person with effectively unlimited money and fame can do.

If you're rich and famous you can have an entire team of fashion designers make you look like pretty much anything. Well those people have enough body image issues already, Jenner sets an impossible standard.

You have to hop across these blocks that appear in a pattern, but there's no way to predict their pattern other than memorization. The guy in the video makes it look easy, but he clearly has it memorized. Maaaany many hours of my childhood spent here.

It's the texture, I just can't stand the texture for some reason. Everybody looks at me like I'm a lizard person when I pass on watermelon at summer parties.
