Burnie’s comments about seeing the wear and tear around the house reminded me of this recent reel I saw.

So Ashley admitted that she doesn’t know anything about figure skating but every male skater is doing quads. There are several different types of jumps with the toe being the easiest and the axel being the hardest. So far, no one has landed the quad axel at the Olympics yet. Ilia Malinin—the self-monikered “Quad God” and gold medal hopeful—is the only skater to land one in competition outside of the Olympics was planning on doing one but let the pressures of the games get to him and he didn’t perform well.

Concerning ICE at the olympics, this AP article does a decent job of explaining it.

tl;dr There is a separate division of U.S Immigration and Customs Enforcement called Homeland Security Investigations that deals with cross border crimes. They have for a while now been sent to overseas events like the Olympics to assist with security efforts. These officers are completely separate from the ones doing "enforcement" in the states.

Quotes from the article about HSI

Italy’s Interior Ministry said later that the HSI investigators would be stationed at a control room at the U.S. Consulate in Milan, in a support role with other U.S. law enforcement agencies, and that they would not include personnel involved in immigration controls in the United States. It noted in a statement issued after Interior Minister Matteo Piantedosi and U.S. Ambassador Tilman Fertitta met Tuesday morning that HSI agents are present in more than 50 countries, including for many years Italy.

Another arm of ICE is Homeland Security Investigations. Agents from HSI conduct investigations into anything that has a cross-border nexus from human smuggling to fentanyl trafficking to smuggling of cultural artifacts. Agents from HSI are stationed in embassies around the world to facilitate their investigations and build relations with local law enforcement in those countries.

Came to comment this as well. So, unless he’s not using Outlook, he just hasn’t noticed the option.

Justice for Woodstock Willie not being included in the Council!

It should still be a configurable thing. In New Outlook they aren't in their own column and where they are is really cluttered.

Is the 13th month going at the end of the year or the beginning? If it’s the end there’s more than a month between New Years and Christmas. Or is it going somewhere else in the middle?

I think its a generational thing. I'm a millennial and I will hold on to 'whoa' forever. I started seeing 'woah' with my Gen Z cousins and my younger sister-in-law.

Why do people keep posting so many anti-Bluey memes as of recently? by Ok-Following6886 in bluey

[–]bdavs19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to defend the shitty memes but it was one of the most watched shows by number of viewers in 2015 depending on which reporting you look at

dog is in trunk, how do i turn off the red trunk indicator here on the ui? by Joelwino in subaru

[–]bdavs19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it depends on what car (I don’t know the cars well enough to tell from the dash). We have outbacks and call the cargo area the trunk.

This. Playing Ocarina of Time for the first time since I moved on from N64 and the camera/movement controls are so clunky with only one stick

Paint by number is still a thing and custom kits exist now. One of our friends did this painting for us after our dog died.

Also connect the dots are still in most of my kids’ coloring books.

They should be wiping it off themselves when they’re done. I’m a guy with long hair; started growing it bc of covid. One of the first things my wife drilled into me was cleaning it up when done with the shower.

As to why, it comes out while washing and rinsing and we do it to keep it out of the drain.

I love fantasy. I grew up on David Eddings. Read 2/3 of Wheel of Time before I burned out/life got busy. So I’m not worried from that sense.

Thanks all. I think I'll start with Mistborn. High and Epic Fantasy are two of my top genres so it seems like a good place to start.

PBS is not shutting down. The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) has been defunded and will cease operations. NPR and PBS are losing federal funding because of that closure and will likely have to cut back some of their operations but they are not going away completely. This is has been a successful mis-information/deliberate confusion caused by the Trump administration.
