The most ridiculous thing about cop procedural shows is when they ask where a person was, and what they were doing at a specific time the person always has perfect and immediate recall. I'd be desperately trying to remember what day of the week that was, and trying to open my phone calendar. If I was the cop, I'd immediately be suspicious of the person who remembered exactly where they were and what they were doing.

@RickiTarr When I was a bank teller, we were literally trained how to give descriptions and not to interrupt as someone is giving a description. The second time I was the victim teller, the first uniform cop to arrive kept interrupting me as I was trying to give a description. When the detectives, bank loss prevention, and FBI all arrived, the first thing we all agreed on is that cop annoyed all of us.

It's so weird that we are all supposed to be ashamed for burping and farting. I deeply apologize to everyone for keeping my body from literally exploding, so uncouth.

@RickiTarr My grandfather and my mother regularly responded to burps and farts from others and themselves with “Better out than in.”

@qurlyjoe I’ve been the supervisor that told someone to leave or I’d call law enforcement after they were excessively rude to one of my cashiers. That was good.

So Utah, having passed a transphobic bathroom bill, has launched an online form for people to snitch on folks they think are in the "wrong" bathroom or locker room.

Be a real shame if people on the Internet flooded it with fake reports: https://ut-sao-special-prod.web.app/sex_basis_complaint.html

@thomasfuchs That the upload instruction includes the phrase “or Drag file(s)” (capitalization in original) is… interesting.

If you get mad when you see employees at a business you are patronizing laughing, enjoying each other's company, and goofing off, you're a dick. Empathize with people working a shitty underpaid job, and let them enjoy what little fun they get.

@RickiTarr When I was an 18 year old floor supervisor at a very busy multiplex, I got a strange performance review. Some managers thought that, even though everything always got done well when I ran the concession stand, it didn’t look like my staff was working hard. I’ve been WTF on the notion that work shouldn’t be fun my adult life.

New outworld is cleaned and landscaped for my Camponotus nicobarensis. I’m going to add some “leaf litter” I would try isopods or springtails… but the girls are so excited to murder— let’s see if they destroy the moss tufts first.

They are also going to put the black dirt all over the place— but that’s the ant way.

Had to retype "successfully" thrice because each time it looked wrong, and I'm still not sure I got it right even though spellcheck has stopped shrieking.

@lilithsaintcrow I can’t count how many times I’ve had to look up the spelling of “dictionary” because I wasn’t confident in its spelling. At least my sense of irony was amused by the fact that checking involved grabbing a dictionary to check spelling and then not opening it.

Okay, so last night I was on a date, and I asked hubs what he was up to at work, and he told me he learned Python, so he could write a program to help people troubleshoot computer problems on their own.

I ask him, "You're creating a program to replace yourself?"

Apparently, just the boring easy stuff he doesn't want to deal with, because he has better ideas about how he wants to use his time at work.

Is this what you smart people do all day?!

@RickiTarr Reminds me of a college CS prof who advised us in class to figure in how much time you need to finish the book you are reading when asked how much time a project will take.

If Meta wanted to sell another 50,000 Quests this month they'd find a way to stream a live immersive video of the eclipse for people who can't be there.

Also paging Apple and Vive.

@kfury At that distance, there is no depth perception from parallax. A single camera and stereo camera will give the same view of the eclipse.

@RickiTarr Middle, left, and right buttons in Notes are totally different moods.

Women are not allowed in this world anymore because they don’t want their husbands and children in this country.

Men are allowed in the country to have a child with their husbands.

Women are allowed to have their own children and have their own bodies.

Men are allowed to have a baby and have their own body.

Women are entitled.

Men are not able or responsible enough.

@RickiTarr If gathering resources (like labor) collectively to act as a single entity were bad for the economy, there would not be corporations. A corporation is just a union for money instead of labor.

Well y'all, we did it, we got Taylor Swift to date Travis Kelce, and her magic vagina gave him the strength to win the Superbowl. Through our collective Socialism and Witchcraft, Biden will now win the election...somehow.

@RickiTarr My grandmother was part of the underground resistance in occupied Norway. She was once sent to the train station to pick up a suitcase of English newspapers smuggled in only to discover all suitcases were being searched at the exit. She got it out by walking up to a German soldier and saying “This is so heavy. Can you carry it for me?”

I don’t know about hot nazis, but hot Norwegians get shit done.

Hubs has finally had a negative Covid test, and I had a nearly invisible line, so I'm thinking by Monday I'll finally be clear too. Now it's in the negatives for awhile, so we are still stuck inside. What do you do to counter Cabin Fever?
