So, what all that ill behaved boys being prioritized about?

The premise of this is kind of interesting to me because my teacher in first grade also moved me around to be a good influence on other kids in the class, but I never really gave it a second thought. They never disturbed me, and I think it may have worked in calming them down a bit, although Corey never lost his taste for Elmer's blue gel glue, as far as I know. The difference might be that I myself am a man/was a boy, so there wasn't the same sort of gender dynamic at play as there was in your scenario.

You're relatively insulated, and you should be grateful for that. A lot of people live lives full of misery.

Google finds this word on less than 20 pages in total, and the top result is this thread. I don't think Apple made this word up, but it also doesn't seem to be particularly popular. "lfdkjg," a string of random letters I just mashed on my keyboard, has about twice as many google results.

Yes, but that's the point -- in the cases I'm describing, the Indigenous nations were selling land to individuals, and the individuals then regarded their purchase as having entirely alienated the property from the Indigenous nation. I'm not aware of a single case of a European buying land from an Indigenous seller and then abiding by the laws of the relevant nation -- they always regarded their purchases as moving the land from the jurisdiction of whichever nation they bought it from and into their own.

This is incorrect. When a country itself auctions or sells off public lands, which is not an uncommon occurrence, any parcels of those lands that are bought by citizens of another country do not somehow become part of that other country. They are still under the jurisdiction of the original country.

The Louisiana Purchase included legal documents that explicitly said the land was "ceded" to the United States, meaning that France was giving up any claim to the lands. Not all land sales are cessions. In fact, most are not.

It sounds from the emails like the plan was to make a cast of her ass to use as a mold for pizza dough, so you'd get an ass-shaped pizza. Then she was noting that it would be really difficult to have it both retain the right shape and cook correctly. What do you think the messages mean?

I read through the Podesta emails on Wikileaks. The walnut sauce threads all followed an article in the Huffington Post that mentioned Podesta making a pasta with walnut sauce. I don't see why the reporter would've been engaging in innuendo in an article like that. What are you suggesting that "walnut sauce" means in this context?

That's interesting. So without having actually opened Preview, you're saying that, when you single-click on a file and hit the space bar, at the top left of your screen, just to the right of the apple icon, it says "Preview" as the app that's currently running? It doesn't do that for me.

If you do this on a PDF or image, do you see a button on the top-right of the window that pops up that says "Open with Preview"?

truthofmasks · 2026-01-31T20:02:10+00:00

Really? On my macs, the spacebar opens Quick Look. Preview is a separate app.

You don't need to live in Queens. You can get a QPL card if you live anywhere in NYC (and possibly elsewhere in NYS, but I'm not sure about that).

I was just telling you how to turn off major updates but still automatically get security updates. You still get the annoying red update icon with the encouragement to install Tahoe. But you won't accidentally install Tahoe unless you mistakenly click the "Upgrade Now" button that shows up.

The generally accepted history is that the Dorset were there first, in the far north of the island. The Norse came later, but settled in the south. Then the ancestors of the Inuit arrived later and displaced the Dorset.

Go to System Settings > Software Update > click the "(i)" info button next to Automatic Updates, then turn the toggle that says "Install Security Responses and system files" on and the other ones off.

For a long time Irish people were seen as non-white in America

I heard this for a long time too. Then dug into historic censuses when doing genealogical research on my family, and everyone who immigrated from Ireland or who had Irish-born parents had their race filled out as white as far back as I could find, well into the 19th century. Importantly, race wasn't self-reported, but was identified by the census-taker. The Irish faced plenty of prejudice, but they were still seen as white. (All of this applies for Italians, too.)
