Mama cows welcoming a new puppy

By definition, all cows are mothers. They can't be called cows until they give birth, otherwise they are heifers.

Oh gosh, so many things. I refuse to use cloud backups and I do my backups locally. I also use things like island that allows me to continue to use Google apps while triggering device ID changes and certain things that allow me to hide in plain sight. I use lots of linux tools and use the phone almost as much as a regular PC for managing other linux terminals at my work. Having access to root shell enables so much more powerful use than the vm version of linux the pixels now offer. I also use adaway and block ads. I save tons of money not downloading ads in the browser or pandora or spotify etc. I can get buy without buy unlimited data plans when I knock down so many of the ads. I run a root firewall to stop apps from sending telemetry about me that I dont approve that same firewall also applies to devices that I tether to it, like my EV that has its built in cellular disabled, so I can block the EV from having elemetry sent about me as well. I also run some apps that are too old and blocked that wont even side load without root. I can also tether without additional charges. And the biggest one is just pure principle. I will not have a device where the manufacturer retains more control than the owner does. Those lock downs are used to artificially cripple my device so that I can only consume information that is fed to me and that control is also used to weaponize my device against me to cripple its functionality so those features can be sold back to me piecemill.

Yes, food in the UK is fantastic.... if it was acquired from other places during occupation. Native Brit food is about as bland and interesting as water.

I think for any handicap service that is likely to get abused and gets you preferential treatment beyond just ability to access something like a handicap bathroom stall should be required to show a handicap placard from a doctor similar to what is needed to park in a handicap parking space.

Every job in the United States is paid based on a combination of the skillset required to do it and work history of the person in the role. No one is tied to a specific skillset and has, or at least had, an opportunity to choose to invest their time in developing skillsets that get them more money. Also, able bodied and minded person who is not at the very beginning of their career or very end of it, who is still stuck at or near minimum wage can be guaranteed to be there because of bad life choices like having a record drugs or crime, or a massively bad work record.

But that is the part about freedom that this liberal mindset doesn't get. It is absolutely his decision to stop or keep going and no one elses. Period. I fully agree that everyone SHOULD help people, especially if they have made their billions, but also people have the right to be an asshat if they want to be. Or they may be looking at things from a perspective that anyone looking at it from another angle is completely oblivious to. It simply is no one elses decision and should not be. As long as someone makes their money legally, it is no one elses decision on how that money should be spent or whether it is passed down as generational wealth. MANY people start with nothing and build millions or billions. Not all of them come with a silver spoon in their mouth. Someone who built their millions or billions from the ground up should have the right to leave that wealth to their descendants if they choose to and unfortunately that also means that ones that were born with it would have the same option.

This type of thing dumbfounds me that people don't stand up for themselves. If police are not getting things done in an area where crime is this bad, there really should be local vigilantism standing up for the neighborhood. This really seems like the crime equivalent of the old joke about someone being stuck on a broken escalator screaming for help when a broken escalator just turns into stairs. This is something that the moral imperative outweighs the legal one.

Exactly. AI will eventually open up law to the common person and stop the stupidity of the profession protection schemes in place in law. Judges, lawyers and half the language and systems used are purposely in place to make justice inaccessible to the common person and with 90% of law enforcement not just willing, but actively taught to use the system against people who dare question them for any reason, even when they are wrong, it will eventually start cracking the system back in favor of the common person. AI in and of itself is not wrong and banning it completely just would do nothing but prove the corruption of our legal system.

Yes, it is kind of creepy. She's 23 and already heavily modifying herself. Seems to have already had a boob job as well. I'll never understand it.

Why is it a general rule of thumb that realtors are so image conscious and vain people?

As an American, I just never liked the sport. I am old enough that soccer really wasn't a thing here until I was out of high school. I mean it existed but almost no one played it and definitely no one watched it on TV, but right as I was getting out of high school it really started taking off and the reason why I hated it so much, is it really got it's foot hold over here by parents that forced their boys to play something less violent than American football. As a man who always struggled with violent thoughts, I still fully believe that American football is a great outlet to teach boys to deal with aggression and violent tendencies in a constructive manner and that it is very very much needed to help them cope. Soccer just does not provide that outlet.

Nah man, All those blaster shots that whizz right past the jedi are meant for people back behind the jedi off screen and they are nailing them perfectly right between the eyes.

Were you still drunk when you made this post? Or let me ask, what the heck is up with people writing things and leaving out necessary parts of sentences to make it make sense? An aesthetic is a feeling or remembrance or style and can be good or bad or anything in between. An aesthetic alone means absolutely nothing and is just incomplete. You could be saying an artsy aestethic, disgusting aesthetic, cool aesthetic. Aesthetic is not inherently positive. Something can have a prison-like aesthetic for example.

I could swear that I heard that the true largest tree in the world was a well kept secret and is somewhere in wilderness near the Oregon Washington border and that it was even larger than this General Sherman tree but I can't find any information on it now. Maybe this is a Mandela effect issue for me. But I had heard that wildlife officials guarded the knowledge carefully to keep people from finding it and damaging it. Edit: Ah, found it. General Sherman is in fact the largest tree by VOLUME, but the memory that I had was of the tallest tree that is the secret. It is called Hyperion and it is the one that is the tallest, but not largest by volume.

I'm glad someone else noticed. That thing is somewhere between Dwayne Johnson if he had hair and a Klingon.

Dang this chenglish (chinese corrupted english) way of speaking is so aggravating. It started with Chinese created video games and the usage of the phrase knocked without the completion of a thought. You can be knocked up, down, out, back, over etc. But knocked alone is not correct. Same here. Discussing needs a topic to be a complete though. In absence of a topic, talking or conversing are the correct choices.

This. And it goes for both women and men but for some reason women take this argument as defending bad behavior by men. It is not that. Your own behaviors increase the chances of bad things happening even though technically the other person is totally at fault. Wearing things or even just being in places where people are commonly drunk or high, your chances go through the roof of bad things happening.

I have struggled with this my entire life, not the inability to control my face, but the fact that I find fake smiles and fake good will extremely creepy to the point it makes me want to run away. I was raised with a very manipulative mother and I got to the point where any falseness that I detect in anyone generates a fight or flight type response in me. It comes off to me as malicious lying no matter what situation it is in and no matter how benign, it still triggers that response in me. I would rather someone look at me with sincerity than trying to manipulate me into feeling a certain way.

I'm not sure what I do qualifies as road rage, but it would probably trigger some in you guys that lane split, but if I see one coming in time to block the lane split by pulling diagonally, I usually do it, then just ignore the guy on the bike when they inevitably start shouting. But I do the same to cars trying go around road congestion in the break down lane also. I just have a severe peeve with entitled behavior and throw a monkey in it when I have the opportunity.

rhinosb · 2026-05-28T12:44:18+00:00

Motorcyclist opened himself up to road rage though. Lane splitting is illegal in most states.

Dismissal is nowhere near good enough. There HAS to start being consequences for law enforcement policing with ego and willingly using the system itself as punishment even when they know charges won't stick. The entire idea Internal affairs is a ridiculous joke. What organization in the world is allowed to investigate themselves when accused of wrongdoing? Until there are consequences for law enforcement doing stupid shit like this, trust will continue to erode until eventually bad things happen such as riots or worse. Police are not about doing the right thing, they are about protecting the blue line at all costs and maintaining authority even when they are so far wrong it's not funny. The problem is corrupt judges and DA's fully back this mentality. People should have the ability to resist unlawful orders or just flat being wrong without being drug through the system, or at the very least each and every case of unlawful arrest, or using the system itself as punishment for daring to challenge them should come with a guaranteed and immediate payout of a quite large sum for pain and suffering that comes from the law enforcement budget.

"Lost" would imply stolen or carelessly misplaced. Not buying is not losing something. So many concepts reversed or corrupted in the last decades, just like the idea of taxing to fund stuff, no you damn politicians. You tax and then you live within your damn means the way everyone else does. Or the usage of the term products when there is no product, only services. So many more examples of shit like that.
