I mean, I understand that occasionally prayers get answered, and that there ARE people who pray that America be punished for our sins and hubris, but, fuck, did ALL the prayers for punishment of America have to be answered AT ONCE?

*immediately buys book* I mean, what am I, made of stone?

I think knickerbadgers are what leave presents in children's shoes on Guy Fawkes Day. That's definitely what the English do, right?

I've always assumed plum pudding was something quintessentially British and possibly completely made up -- like Turkish Delight, knickers, and badgers.

Yay!

Oooooooh you do not want the judge writing that about you. That judge is PISSED.

This is for in-person work. He's really not bothering with homework at this point, given how extreme the ChatGPT has gotten. If they're not doing it in front of his eyes, it's basically worthless at this point.

Right??? He worked all summer to create the problems for his whole year!

He also has to teach statistics this year, and decided that the questions included in the basic book would not properly engage his students, so he wrote his own. Feast your eyes on these beauties:

Maybe someone should check how much sugar Paxton has been shoveling into his drinks lately.

Gosh, I hate to judge a book by its cover, but that's a hell of a side-by-side set of photos. Maybe this is why all those GOP people were freaking out about how Talarico looked? Because that matchup looks like Bobby Kennedy vs. an alien in a skin suit who also has a debilitating drinking problem.

Ooooh, that's the dream (minus bugs).

Also, without softening, these texts are incredibly dark and murdery, and things end just so, so poorly for any noncombatant women and children who happen to be in the general area. Like, even GRRM would be all, "maybe not when I'm just interested in popcorn and a good time, sir."

Jaws fails completely as a film because it does not include the subplot where Brody's wife cheats on him with the shark scientist for reasons that are entirely tied to social class anxiety and the fact that she married down when she married Brody.

I mean, I'm just a simple elder millennial, but when I was younger that kind of thing would be called "disqualifying" for someone trying to get a top position with the government.

Why, very seriously, would I need to show ID to buy pasta? Is pasta age-restricted at Olive Garden? It it, like, weed-infused pasta? Or is this part of paying? Am I writing a personal check to cover my meal?

(the mission was for two years -- I set a goal for how much I wanted to give him when he came back, divided it by the number of paychecks I would have in that time, and saved accordingly. $300 gift, saved $20 at a time. :)

Oooh, those are good ideas! Thank you!

Kevin, I feel like this is a very solid coping mechanism, and a valid way to work through the next two years. And if this starts faltering, there's always macrame.
