If you don’t mind a bit of DIY tinkering you can get an older music player and upgrade it with a new battery, new drive, and rockbox. If Bluetooth is a must you could also get a 3.5mm adapter. Here is an example upgrading an iRiver player.

Babe, wake up, we got Horseade 2: Electrolyte Boogaloo

I feel like calling being a night owl a “lifestyle” places blame on the person, when it has been shown to be genetic. It feels like vilification of people who live outside of societal norms rather than a call for understanding the difficulties they face and the health impacts from it.

Governor Tim Walz—whom the White House has blamed for inciting violence—and the two men are now on “a similar wavelength.”

Once again, he just goes along with whomever he spoke with last

It kind of makes sense, there’s a large mass of charged particles being deflected by the Earth’s magnetic field, so there must be some kind of corresponding force applied back to the field/the dynamo generating it. Interesting that the leading hypothesis is that it manifests piezoelectrically in rock.

I follow some home inspectors who post videos from their new home inspections, and holy crap the things they find are ridiculous. Like, construction companies should lose their licenses bad.

4th Grade - my friends and I used to fold up pieces of paper into ‘guns’ that we would play with. They basically looked like a big L. It was right when zero tolerance policies started to get implemented, so of course I got 3 days suspension for my paper. That same year another kid got the same for an action figure gun.

11th Grade - in computer science class all of our exams were written only. I finished my test early, then went to a computer to work on my coding project for that week. The teacher I guess first thought I was cheating on the test, so called me to the front to make an example of me. When she learned I had already turned in my test she changed the charge to using the school computers for non school activities. When I demonstrated that I was working on my project she changed again to say that using the computer was against the agreement we all signed at the start of the year regarding appropriate use of the school computers. I asked to see what part of the agreement I had violated, and she pulled out the sheet to show me. When that didn’t back her up she again changed her approach, this time writing me up for Saturday detention for “not bringing my book to class”. I went to the Vice Principal to contest the entire issue, but he just told me to go to the detention anyway. I ended up spending an hour cleaning marker off of the walls.

Okay, hear me out. Start with frozen mini burritos - heat them up about halfway and cut them in half lengthwise. Then get your frozen pizza of choice and lay the burrito halves on it radially and cover with liberal amounts of shredded cheese. Then bake as per pizza instructions, adding maybe 3 minutes. Cut into slices and serve it forth.

For all practical matters, the rule of law in the US has been suspended in favor of the rule of force.

There’s even a song about this

The vampires layer

It’s a common phenomenon that has been studied. Here is a recent paper.

Turn on your monitor

They put one on the bun at least

I think the trans kid crisis line is what he was axing.

What mods, though?

So let’s see… Shitting white means a lack of bile, pissing red means you have something wrong with the urinary tract or kidneys, and bleeding blue means you’re a hermit crab.
