And lead in the pph.

I have young kids. I routinely over order on that kind of stuff. I’m getting my fair share, one way or another, but I like to make sure my wife and kids all get theirs.

I might use this for my next MH day.

It’s a fantastic series. Only draw back is that it is on Amazon.

The show actually captured a fair amount of that. Interesting. Thanks!

I only know Lenny Bruce from The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. Was he a real figure?

Like a katamari?

The Holy Trinity includes God who is supposedly all powerful. I think He can hold His own 1v1. I’m not saying He would thrash every Hindu god, but it’s not a trouncing of God situation, either. Regardless, when you start adding in the entire kingdom of Heaven, even against the entire pantheon of Hindu gods, I think Heaven wins out.

For his human form, yes, but Holy Trinity-wise, I’m not so sure. Beyond 1v1, archangels tip any scales in JC’s favor.

In the game Taskmaker, one of the things I always try to do as soon as possible is acquire a vapor ring (allows you to walk through nearly any wall/tile). Facing a bad guy who is too strong? Become ethereal and walk into the middle of a wall, rest up, and return until he’s beaten (or you run out of food or get bored).

Not to mention all the looting potential.

When I originally played the game, it was a demo that didn’t include most of the locations. It did include a range of items. So, I knew this trick before I got the full game. I had practically become the taskmaker before I had the full game.

I think that’s the real crux of it. Most people don’t know. There may have been a bump in literacy, but most people don’t know, don’t care, and don’t need to. If we had better education, this kind of thing could be a core class. I had computer classes, but they mainly focused on typing and specific programs. Basically nothing about components, the command prompt, programming, different OS, etc. Granted this was many years ago, but I live in Florida. So, it’s probably worse.

This. I shut off all notifications from nearly all of my apps. Primary text app, phone app, and just a couple of others. I may temporarily allow them for a special purpose, but once that’s over they all get silenced and I get to them when I get to them. I hate badge notifications, too. So, those are off for EVERYTHING. Grad school cemented that aversion.

Honestly, I don’t even feel it’s that bad to do. Is it a naturally occurring pile, no, but unless he’s taking perfectly good stuff from unscathed buildings, it’s still hurricane debris. The only problem in my eyes is that the effort spent piling debris could have been used to actually restore the location. So, I’m with the folks who say he should have found a place they were already piling stuff as part of the cleanup mission.

Wasn’t he a blue shirt in that timeline?

Wasn’t he their boss last time?

To those who disagree with the above:

• Moving is damn expensive.
• Don’t forget that the Republicans are working hard to prevent legitimate voters from voting, namely anyone who is more likely to support NOAA, NHC, climate science, education, FEMA, etc.

Except not all the idiots lived in the path of Milton, or even where hurricanes go at all. I can’t explain why the presence of hurricanes has become yet another idiotic political issue, but the MAGA morons are latching on to it.

They give me those days “off.” I take those days off. I’m already WFH, but I spend the time prepping for the storms and then taking care of my kids and making sure they feel happy and safe. We make a movie marathon out of it. We download stuff to tablets for when the power goes out. We get out the air mattress and sleep together in the living room (my bedroom is under a tree). Work is not going to interrupt me taking care my family.

I know that I am in a fortunate situation that allows me to do something that many can’t. I don’t take that for granted. That said, I do make it happen.

Multiple counties have different ways, but here is a couple:

• https://www.browardvotes.gov/Voter-Information/Ballot-Status-Notifications
• https://www.votealachua.com/My-Registration-Status (registration status, but also tells you other things, including status)

My county in Florida allows you to show your vote was counted. Damned if I don’t check every single time.
