de-lived

I prefer "inhumed".

And the right wingers said, "Well we didn't think it would work!"

I recall a number of voters who voted in favor of Brexit who were interviewed and said things like "but I didn't think it would actually happen!"

I also seem to recall a similar sentiment in a case where people voted to strip funding from a local library in Michigan, then were shocked when the library had to close.

Don't forget the alt text:

Attention all passengers: This is an express sequence to infinity. If your stop is not a power of two, please disembark now.

Maybe we should chip in and buy a second robot.

Hear me out: three robots.

shit down the government

I don't know if this was a typo, but it's rather appropriate either way.

It says there are no videos in the playlist.

The videos are there for me. Maybe you're in a region where they're blocked?

Where's a good place to start? Is there some overarching narrative or can you read them in any order?

While there are myriad reading orders that have been devised over the years, my method with long extended series such as this one is simple: I consume them in the order in which they were produced/released.

Now I can't read that without hearing Avery Brooks' voice.

You don't actually give the card to the employees, do you?

Typically when I go through a drive thru, I hand my card to someone who then leans back inside to swipe/tap/whatever it, then they hand it back. So yes, commonly I do give my card to an employee for at least a few seconds.

During 2020-2022 more of them were in the habit of placing the PIN pad at the window so it could be reached by customers from their cars, but it wasn't designed to be used that way and I'm sure it caused other issues.
