No dress rehearsal today, it’s the stage manager’s nap time, go practice your lines for a few hours.

Bless you for sharing this.

Thought it was pretty funny when the name of the company was mentioned - I work for a company with almost the same name, just a letter off. That show struck a little close to home.

Young kitty, you don’t get to look at me like that until you pay rent and buy groceries.

Thankfully there’s an entire field of linguistics that’s already done the work. Quick Google search shows 22 Latin descendant languages, and 24 Germanic descendant languages. So slightly more, yeah.

Romanian, Catalan, Sicilian, Galician, Venetian, probably a number of other dialects, are also Latin descendants.

The problem is slowing it down to any speed that would end up with it dropping into the sun is going to take more effort and be more difficult than firing it out of the solar system. It isn’t practical.

Poor bird. That imprint is almost cartoonish, lol. Glad the lil dude’s going to be ok, though.

On an unrelated note, “factoids” are things commonly believed to be true, but actually aren’t. I guess you could say factoids are factoids!

Sounds like a storage medium to add to the Hard drives we don’t want or need list.

True. I’d wager a decent chunk of that urban sprawl is due to our massive parking lots.

Us Americans can’t seem to get the hang of a simple roundabout, so we’ve got that super efficient stop-and-go traffic.

Right?! Don’t these people know there’s a finite amount of attention people have, and posting stuff that isn’t doom and gloom is just going to squeeze out the important stories that are now impossible to read and process?!

(/s for the oblivious)

What exactly does one do with 22 tonnes of stolen cheese?

Mawwiage is what bwings us togevah today.

One of my favorite movies that I’ll probably never watch again. The Kronos Quartet did an awesome job with the soundtrack.

The Queen and Snow might want to reconsider their foundation shade. Just sayin’…

I went to high school in rural Mississippi and had a creationist biology teacher. We quickly touched on what the textbook had to say about evolution, then spent the next week or so watching this video series on various species with symbiotic relationships and how some of them could not have possibly evolved without the other. And it was a public school. Knowing what I know now, I should have told him to stick his illegal proselytizing up his ass and just spent his class period studying in the library.

Who doesn’t like a good gummie?

You are not putting me in that tacky ass Velcro wallet on a chain…

Yeah, it’s not really that much, but it’s precisely for that reason that I know after paying for my own necessities, I can’t afford mini-mes. And let’s not even get started on the emotional baggage I picked up in childhood that keeps me convinced to this day it’s best to just not perpetuate a negative cycle my family seems stuck in.
