This picture has exposed me to a new kind of question mark.

I'm a bit conflicted on this. If I elect someone to state or federal office I do expect them to be a bit of a go-getter.
How did I not think of the ad thing before? Of course that's what they'll do.
Praise be, I literally came here to search for a post about it going down to see if there was an alternative.
You might think that's universal, but in the medieval period they actually preferred pear-shaped democracies.
Yes! The shape of our democracy is the issue that affects every other issue.
They've been on such a roll the last few years, but damn I missed that one. If anyone has a collection of highlights please share.
I completely agree. It feels like a lot of them were added at some high crest of drama between Hexbear and another online space, and 90% of them aren't funny or interesting in any way outside that context.
Also, most of them feel really petty, like we're trying super hard to prove that we're laughing at their stupidity. It doesn't give the impression that we're above the nonsense; it gives the impression that we're desperate for people to think we are.
I find parenthesis are best when concept B is worth noting, but tangential to concept A, especially when the next few points are going to be back on the same track that A was on.
I quite like my Kubuntu Focus. I found some people complaining about the durability of System76 chassis (apparently they're plastic) and that's why I didn't go with them.
From this post (jdpon-don is taken).
Every paragraph is just 
Bees, for those unschooled in entomology, are broken into three subsets: "Workers," who build the hive, prepare the honey, and clean each other; "Queens," who eat the honey and live in opulence; and "Wasps," who fight wars at the queen's behest and defend the hive from bears. If this sounds vaguely familiar, it should. It is nearly identical to the social structure that we as humans employ.
See how the worker bee corresponds fluidly to the human laborer. The queen, by contrast, could be mistaken for a member of our ruling class: Presidents, CEOs, publishers. The wasp is analogous to a soldier or boxer. Bears, in this case, can stand in for themselves, as they pose a grave threat to both species.
You cannot have Rwanda again because information would come out far more quickly about what is actually going on, and the public opinion would grow to the point where action would need to be taken.
I made it 546 kilometres in 19 days, with ~350 left to go. Idk if my water filter failed or there was a hygiene slipup, but I woke up Thursday feeling super fatigued and that quickly slipped into beaver fever symptoms (or some kind of infection/parasite).
Now I've spent the last few days recovering on the couch and picking up reading again. Still feels like a big achievement, but I had a bit of a short time window to finish the trail. Now I'll probably be too busy for the rest of the warmer season and have to wait until next year.

If all goes according to plan we should see a major workforce productivity spike exactly one week after this decision came into effect.
