When he came to my city a few months ago the city made his campaign pay in advance.

Remember, they are pro-control not pro-life.

Might want to look into dirt bike protective gear. I am personally a fan of Leatt but there are loads of brands to choose from. I have never ridden a horse wearing dirt bike gear but I have hit the ground and trees many, many, times while dirt biking and it has served me well.

I didn’t typically make a habit out of arguing with money but Brian Eno is actually a pretty cool guy.

For some reason my wife’s Google photo face recognition thinks our grey cats are my sister in law.

Or Idiocracy

they are continuing to dump real humans who can communicate and respond to issues outside of the rigid framework when it comes to support

They have been trying to get humans to operate within their rigid framework, with varying success, for a very long time. One thing they love about “AI” is that they can program it to do exactly what they want and not worry about human emotion risking their bottom line.

If someone is speaking proudly of how bad they are at math they most likely didn’t have dyscalculia. Most of us that do have it speak angrily or resignedly about how bad we are at math. What really gets me is when people proudly blame their “dyslexia” for why they are bad at math.

Is this your first election cycle? It is SOP for the incumbent administration to push big popular legislation when it is coming up to election time. There will be even more coming in the next few months.

Mostly Avolites and ETC. Mostly just always save to a couple of USB sticks as backup, one of which lives on my keys and the other in my computer bag. It is nice to have quick access to my user profile and some pre-built stuff though. Some of them I keep around because I do those shows every year but mostly it’s just not worth the effort of deleting them because the files are so small. They are also all backed up to my home server.

Mine is mostly lighting console show files of various concerts/comedians/dance performances I have been the lighting designer for. I know my use case is different than most people’s, but hey, you asked.

This is what I came here to say. A couple of years ago there was a trend on the fountain pen subreddit of videos of people writing minimum. It is quite fun and satisfying to write.

Mazda is a solid brand. All of their crossovers and SUVs are AWD so really your only option if you are in the US will be the 3. The 3 is a great car either as a sedan or hatchback and I would have one if I did not need more cargo room because of my job. The sedan has a huge trunk and is plenty roomie in the cabin. For the price Mazdas are more comfortable and fun to drive than anything else out there (IMHO).

Thanks for the info. The Brighton test is actually what led us to start looking into EDS. I easily get 4 points with the pinkies and thumbs. I’m not sure on the knees and elbows, I go past straight but I didn’t know how to properly measure what angle I get to. I cannot even come close to touching my toes because my spine does not curve the way it is supposed to.

I did not know about the antibiotic, that is good info to have. I did know people with EDS need to be particularly careful with stretches and yoga but had not really thought about physical therapy. Last time I was in PT for my spine I ripped my collar bone most of the way off of my sternum so that makes sense.

Again, thank you for the info.

I can’t believe no one has said Tucker and Dale vs Evil yet. It’s best if you watch it without knowing anything about it beforehand.

I suspect that I have Ehlers Danols. I have an appointment with a new doctor next month to look into a possible diagnosis. When my wife first found out about EDS and said she thought I might have it I was just like “whatever”, but then the more we looked into it the more my entire life made sense. I’m not saying I hope I have EDS but it would be really nice to actually have an explanation for the constant pain and unstable joints.

Out of a canon?

Airplanes even had ashtrays with little flip up lids in the armrests.

I was eating at a restaurant one time with some people from out of town when a car drove past the window. Nobody really seemed to interested when I pointed it out until I also pointed out that there is not a road outside that window. The car had jumped the curb, threaded the needle between a stop sign and fire hydrant, and made it about 80 feet through the park before stopping. The cops were still dealing with the guy when I left the restaurant, he was clearly very inebriated.

I’m going with “Hop 'N Slide”
