If it’s MY car why would adverts be in it?

Because you're too poor to afford the monthly payment on the ad-free model.

Frog, dog, and kitten, over and over and over in completely arbitrary orderings.

My first thought is that my work requires office365 mail and my discovery that davmail exists has been a godsend. I'm not going to install outlook on my linux pc, so being able to check those emails using any client (claws in my case) is a massive convenience upgrade from relying on firefox to login.

So it's a writing app?

The couch cushion works fine. Couch cushions appear in real-life situations all the time and simply having one in the movie cannot be construed as making a statement on the kind of conduct that we as a nation are willing to accept from our vice-presidential candidates.

Do your work for you, you say?

That reminds me, tomorrow I will need everyone here to proofread the latest revision of my screenplay for the "John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt" horror movie.

I have absolutely zero interest in making this movie political.

This is inexplicably the best answer yet. Everyone else is working so hard to think outside the box that the box is inside-out.

-day/night, etc

Once she pieces together that dusk and dawn are in there too she'll figure out day should be mid-day and night should be mid-night. She's right there to becoming history's second timecuber. All she needs to do is take that step past duality, from two to four.

I want to watch it just because even without knowing a single thing about it I absolutely love this parody video and would like to get a more sophisticated appreciation for the comedy there.

I think what the number 44 specifically would look like was probably way outside the radar of whoever designed that font. Yeah, it looks similar, but even noticing that I still really wouldn't have assumed that someone wearing intends it as a nazi symbol. Is there really a need to announce a ban and solidify that it will be one? Just change the damn font going forward. Are they going to ban 88 too?

Your last paragraph was pretty much where I was a couple years ago. I don't remember who helped clarify this for me, but housing maintenance is very much a real job and deserves the same respect and compensation as any real job, but it can very easily be disjoint from being a landlord. Making money from owning the housing other people live in is distinct from maintaining that housing, and just because several people do both things doesn't mean that we should treat them as the same job.

 

Roto-Borola usually likes to hang out with me when I'm working at my desk. Earlier today my wife snapped this photo of him chilling by me. Every so often he sits like this, but I think this is the first time we've seen him nap in this position. I laughed a little and it woke him up, he looked at me and did a loud meow and then got up.
