There's no strain in any of those muscles. My guess is that black background is designed to hide whatever contraption is supporting the men.

Wait, so they dusted it with cocoa powder and then put those frosting dollops on top of that? The lid might have been the only thing holding those in place.

You can't arrest me for pretending to be a diplomat, I have diplomatic immunity!

I'm halfway through scrolling this long thread, and this is the first comment I've seen that isn't overly cynical. It's also correct.

I've been working for 38 years, and I've been someone who makes promotion decisions for 15 of them. The third one is helpful, not essential, but the others are super important. The people who rise to leadership positions aren't necessarily the top technical people, they're the ones who do those things with a good attitude.

The other thing I'd add is that they're people who are able to see the big picture and how the details relate to it, which is part of strategic thinking.

Might be an unpopular opinion, but I have no problem with stores selling holiday stuff way in advance of the holiday. Some people want to get their decorations all lined up, be working on crafts, or whatever. What I object to is when stores decorate for the holiday way in advance. I don't want to see Christmas trees and snow men in October or pumpkins and witches in July.

Yeah, came to say the same. I'm different though, I know I'm addicted to it.

Outdoor cats have a shorter average life span in cities, too. One big cause is cars. Also, it's worth noting that house cats are essentially an invasive species and do a lot of damage to bird populations.

It's pretty widely recommended to keep cats indoors.

It's really getting old. But if it's DDoS attacks, I'm not giving up. I might if it was just repeated resource issues, but I refused to be pushed by assholes.

To the extent DeSantis popular, it's only because he says and does things to "own the libs." He isn't a good speaker, he isn't charismatic, and he doesn't have actual ideas for accomplishing anything.

The people who end up voting for him in the primaries will be the ones who simply want to piss off liberals, but figure Trump will be in jail.

Okay, so how do we get this fixed? Any way to get admin attention? I think @Spaltovic@lemmy.world is probably correct about the cause.

I was going to say that there isn't a dumber elected official, but then I remembered Boebert. Man, if someone is going to be that dumb, they should at least be nice, and either way they shouldn't be helping to run the country. Such a complete embarrassment.

There's a giant number of posts, but only a small number of bots responsible for them. When I see a post like that, I click on the bot's username, then click "block." Didn't have to do that very many times before those posts disappeared for me.
