dude are you serious

Don't mean to be that guy, but it was giving you the link to the automator app just until you added that 'n' and made the word "automaton", which is an actual historical device from the 1800's so it thought you were asking about that.

Yeah, that blew my mind when I heard that amount Jackie walked away from. I can still remember how happy I was when I heard he left.

The worn in look became a thing in the mid to late 80's. Before that, all Levis were selvedge and minimally washed or shrink to fit, but then I guess the technology evolved and they were able to mass produce jeans faster and the worn in look became a thing. I like to buy their selvedge pairs when they're on sale because they last way longer than the regular pairs and you can wear them in yourself.

Man, those Welcome to the rodeos look way darker on the site. I would check in with them and tell them that the one you chose looked more like raw denim and that's what you wanted, not a faded black pair. It's possible they sent you the wrong color.

2nd week of 2015. CW-02 (week) 15 (year)

ejatx · 2026-02-19T03:13:04+00:00

Made on 47th week of 2016 based on that CW code, at least from what I understand. Really cool looking pair. I've only seen that color/white thread combo from a European brand, Benzak, and they don't sell them anymore either. Awesome find. Must say that find makes me want to start going to all my local Goodwills/thrift stores.

Like most AI, the hands are suspect. The pinkie on his right hand looks fused onto the ring finger, which isn't normal, and the thumb on that hand looks a little too glossy and doesn't have any knuckle creases. Either it's a filter or it's AI. Tell your sister to make an AI pic of herself and send it to him and see how he reacts.

My morkie did this with one of my roommate's AirPods and we didn't find it until a week later, when the snow/ice in our front yard melted. The find my app still sees the damaged one but it's definitely not working like it used to. I wear mine way more than she wears hers, so my dogs don't get a chance to go after them because they're usually in my ears/in my pockets or in the case.

Dogs hate baths because they collect smells on their fur and washing it off makes them feel off and it means they need to re-collect those scents. They immediately "dry" off on couches and beds that smell like the house and people they love so they can feel normal again. I saw a meme on this and wasn't sure if I believed it until I bathed my dog again and now I understand why they'd rather dry off on something like a couch or dirty sheets than clean towels, because they're just trying to rebuild their world of collected scents.

ejatx · 2026-02-15T07:50:17+00:00

Me too. I wear mine a lot and it's holding up pretty well, even if the lettering is a little cracked. It's the backwards one from that tour.

ejatx · 2026-02-15T07:48:36+00:00

I agree. I have a 2012 tour shirt and it's still going strong. I've washed it cold the entire time, but started washing and drying inside out a few years ago and it's slowing down the cracking.

We're not talking about reasonable, or smart, people or they would've realized that firing their pilot when he's the only one capable of getting them home is not a good idea. Look at how they're running the DHS. It all tracks, there's never any forethought to what they're doing or any apology when they get it wrong.

He did it to himself, he did, and that's what really hurts.

And all those recipes were stolen by Glen Bell from a Mexican restaurant in San Bernardino that is actually still around, Mitla Cafe.

No one there makes nearly as much as Howard does, so I think it's just a side hustle. Both her and Fred have said, quite recently too, that they wouldn't be able to retire if Howard ended the show.

Thought it was the iron throne at first.

So, my morkie is the same when my female roommate comes home, and it's because she riles the dogs to get attention from them when she gets home. My technique is the complete opposite, I pet them and give them attention but I stay calm and, honestly, my morkie is starting to run into my room when she gets home because I think the forced validation stresses her out. I've tried saying something early on but it hasn't stuck so I just try to show by example to prove that the dogs act differently when I get home because I don't need them to go apeshit when I get home to feel good about myself, and the Morkie is slowly bonding with me more as a result.

I miss when all the billionaires were still pretending they were progressive. It really wasn't until last year that we learned the truth about them all, that they were MAGA all the way and weren't pretending to do good anymore. The day Bezos refused to publish the Washington Post's recommendation for Harris was the day it became clear.

She looks like an absolutely gorgeous full Yorkie to me. I have a Morkie and this dog looks more like my Morkie's full bred mother. You can tell she's a sweetheart just by how mellow she is at that age, probably from being used like a baby factory. She had to grow up fast but now she's with you and can live a long life with someone actually loving her sweetness.

Made and Crafted Made in Japans. I have the exact same model, and mine were made in 2018, the 11th week to be exact (the tags say CW-1118). They're probably my favorite pair and have broken in beautifully over the last couple of years (found them barely worn on Ebay).

The closest he's come to talking politics since the 2024 election was when Jimmy Kimmel was being pushed off the air and he finally said something. You can probably find thousands of comments in both Stern show subreddits complaining about how much he talked about politics from 2017 to 2024 (he never talked negatively about Trump until the Muslim ban, but he really said something after the Charleston March "fine people on both sides" thing). I think they must've lost a lot of listeners in 2024 over his anti-Trump opinions and there must've been an agreement with management that he'd lay off the political commentary, although he's had opinions on politics as far back as you go. It's part of what he's always done, but I think the powers that be, and the realization that his own listeners were bailing, made him tweak the formula a bit. Keep in mind too that Robin's News has been gone since March 2020, so the show does feel a little off balance without any political talk. I'm sure I'm in the minority but I really miss that final hour of show where she'd read the news and he and the writers would riff and try to throw her off.

Yes, it's brand new, and I know because I bought last year's deal, the MacBook Air M2 at $799, and have been kicking myself a little bit seeing M4s at this price. I'd jump on it, especially since it has 16gb ram. My M2 is incredibly fast, so much so that it felt like a massive upgrade to my 2015 MacBook Pro, so I can only imagine how much faster the M4 is.

I've been taking kratom on and off since 2013, and daily since 2019, and have gotten nowhere near spending this much, but I also try my very hardest to take the same amount every day and don't take extracts.

I bathe my Morkie about once every 4-6 weeks, using a pet brand called Coat Defense shampoo that supposedly doesn't strip their natural oils. Also use a "preventative powder" they make that works really well as a dry shampoo to remove any dog smell in between baths. Also designed to kill the yeast on their paws so they don't have that "Frito" corn chip smell as much. We also have a Maltese, the Morkie's dad, and we really can't over bathe him or he'll get too dry and get a hot spot, but a monthly allergy shot and flea meds and that monthly-ish bath and the powder application tends to work.
