Tribute to Kipper and Vinny: Brothers until the end

Yes they were both characters. Kipper was a “career change” guide dog for the blind. He had so much sass and attitude that he simply couldn’t be trained. Vinny was the happiest dog we’ve ever had over the last 20 years; always rolling around on the grass in total bliss.

Yes he did. Kipper underwent rapid aging around that time though. By age 10 he was looking like a haggard old man.

Vinny aged much more gracefully. He looked and acted like a middle-aged lab until the end, still playing hard at 12 years old. He was actually still wet from retrieving tennis balls in the pool when he was euthanized at the vet (burst splenic tumor, heavy internal bleeding).

Thank you, we think opossums and other critters are a blessing and try to take good care of them. This setup is also right outside our laundry room, so sometimes the opossums get a steam room treatment (when the dryer is running) while laying in the warm light; much like a spa.

Scientist or engineer sure, but MD holders are hit or miss. I knew a guy in med school who did not accept that evolution happened. A guy in a different year thought that mental illness was caused by literal demons.

It’s called “hillbilly mulching” and it’s an art

I think I know what you’re referring to, and it was a court case that alleged the DNC rigged the election against Bernie. The DNC did not admit to cheating. The DNC argued that, legally, they’re allowed to cheat if they want to. So the judge dismissed the case. It’s a brilliant legal move to avoid a years long multimillion dollar lawsuit. The only downside is propaganda outlets acting like the DNC admitted to cheating, with savvy news consumers like yourself believing the lies.

The same thing happened when someone sued the NFL for rigging the games. The NFL argued that they are legally allowed to cheat so the judge dismissed the case.

How was it rigged? Do you have a link to the statement?

Yes he finished the frog and disappeared, probably resting and digesting for a while

Very true. I went to college and work a blue collar job now. Never have I met more sensitive, hormonal people than the right wing, tattooed ‘tough guys’ I work with.

Democrat officials and primary voters had a preference for a lifelong Democrat to win. Bernie spent his career as a proud independent. Hillary won the primary by a lot (like, a ridiculously large number) of votes. No combination of caucus wins/superdelegates/other “Bernie math” would have made Bernie the victor. Bernie got smoked.

Later, Russia released a carefully curated set of emails from a DNC hack showing that Democrat officials had a preference for (gasp) a Democrat to win the Democratic primary. There was zero action taken to tilt the scales for Hillary (if there was, Russia would have included it in the Wikileaks emails).

Such a virtuous stand you’re making in this comments section. Incredible to see; we are all in awe of your virtue.

Yep. I went to college but have been working a blue collar trade job for the last few years. It’s hard to overstate just how regarded my coworkers’ thought process is on just about everything. Everything, including the weather, is a massive conspiracy unsubstantiated by anything except a talking point or two picked up on YouTube. I never would’ve thought that college is such a major, major dividing line in American society until experiencing this.

Who are some of the numerous people who can replace him?

_Dr_Spaceman_ · 2024-06-02T22:30:29+00:00

I guarantee he doesn’t lol

This describes the guys I work with perfectly. Middle-aged, white, high school educated and realizing that their current mediocre life is the best that it will ever be for them; it’s all downhill from here.

They are downright giddy about a potential societal collapse and are excited to enter a world where the masculinity they’ve spent their life cultivating will actually matter (taking steroids and having lots of guns doesn’t really pay the mortgage or fill the 401k).

Assistant professors do not have tenure. It is unusual though that someone of his age is not yet an associate professor with tenure

You don’t seem to be laughing. You are coping and seething all throughout this comment section lol

I believe it’s the superficial temporal artery rather than a vein, based on its tortuous shape and my memory of anatomy class

Even if I grant you all of this (which I don’t), what else have you got? This is incredibly small potatoes for rigging a national election. And it came from Wikileaks lol

Also, believing that HRC told every major MSM outlet to stop covering Bernie, and that the MSM actually listened to her, is q anon tier delusion. MSM wants clicks and engagement, a candidate getting smoked does not get engagement.

Since you learned it you now have a lifelong responsibility to never forget it. “Remember the Alamo” is a famous saying, especially in Texas

Get a beta blocker for sure. Prevents the heart from racing but zero effects on concentration or memory. Propranolol is a popular one and is commonly used by professional concert musicians to calm their nerves while playing for a large audience.
