"Not just a hand that feeds, a hand that's a MEAL. (tm)"

Could ants evolve an organ that could make and process radio waves for wifi pheromones?

It's hard to talk about the theft. It is hard to even describe the crime because nothing quite like it has ever been done in human history. At least not in a time of relative peace.

Hear the sound of the fire. The roar of hot air escaping from between the rafters, the rustle of pages that will never be read again, the blackening twisting traceries of heat turning beautiful images the work of human imagination into uniform gray dust.

Lightly braised hand that feeds on a bed of couscous and wild mushrooms.

Perhaps men should not be in leadership positions because they are distracted by sexy ladies too easily.*

*This is a parody of red scare anti-gay notions and only 1/3 serious or about current events.

Said to a coworker today: "it's like whenever you use chatGPT just imagine Sam Altman peering over the top of your monitor watching everything you do with his little eyes and he's enjoying it."

And now the media will do dozens of stories to try to understand how they missed the left leaning turn of American voters. They will visit Black churches and college campuses and listen to ordinary people to find out how they....

LOL I can't. I tried, but I'm cracking up too much already. Anyways just enjoy the result I suppose.

Google Classroom sends you notifications on your phone when students leave comments on their homework assignments. So, being a good teacher I rush to see what it says. Only the phone app will not display comments. And it's boxed up so you can't use the webapp on the phone.

This is what I mean by thoughtless software. Why tell me about it if I can't see it?

There are at least two dozen UI/design problems like this one. Thousands of schools PAY for this. Pay. With cash money!

The List

1. Legal consequence for someone, anyone who paid for a pardon or otherwise bribed the government.
2. No more stock trading or crypto for congress and the president.
3. Someone (anyone) goes to prison for Epstein beyond Maxwell.
4. Legal consequences for those who overstepped the law through ICE.
5. Congress reasserts its power to decide when and IF the US goes to war.

Each is worth one point. 3/5 is the lowest passing grade.

I don't talk much about how to get rid of unwanted ants, but I would like to suggest the least destructive (to native ants and other arthropods) method of killing an ant colony:

Targeted liquid baiting.

All ants prefer liquid foods to solid foods and when several ants discover a large food source the whole colony will attempt to collect it all. This means sugar water with borax can be an effective way to kill the colony.

This is also about the Land Between the Lakes so a Bigfoot ant crossover story is possible.

More Russian men are being sent home from the war in body bags than are being born back at home.

The war has been deadly not just for the people of Ukraine but for the aggressor.
