ThePrettiestOne

Personally, no. I want no one and nothing near me. Waking up is traumatic for me, I absolutely hate mornings., and the last thing I want to do is communicate with anyone in any way.
Exceptions made for the boyfriend's cat who, despite mostly being indifferent to my presence, celebrates my getting up with her rituel pettin's squiggle dance.

do you ever wake up and just crave intimacy? Like you’d give anything to have woken up with someone’s arms around you and to be able to feel their breath on your neck? Idk i’m lame

Vacuuming Sucks, So Here's the Cheapest Roomba We've Ever Seen

by Shep McAllister on Deals, shared by Shep McAllister to Lifehacker
ThePrettiestOne

Well, yes, my vacuum sucks. that's what it's supposed to do, and it's pretty good at it for something I got so cheap. Who the hell vacuums every other day, anyway?

Life’s too short to vacuum every other day, but luckily, you can pawn that tedious chore off to a Roomba, and the entry level 652 model is marked down to $250 today on Amazon, which is the best price we’ve seen on any Roomba ever.

Donald Trump Jr. releases email chain showing he was chasing information from Russian government

by rss@dailykos.com (Mark Sumner)

Donald Trump Jr. has released a statement along with a series of back and forth emails between his account and that of publicist Rob Goldstone. Trump Jr. may have expected this to clear up the issue … and it does. It makes it crystal clear.

Good Morning.

Emin just asked me to contact you with something very interesting. The Crown prosecutor of Russia met with his father Aras this morning, and in their meeting offered to provide the Trump campaign with some official documents and information that would incriminate Hillary and her dealings with Russia and could be very useful to your father.

This is obviously very high level and sensitive information but is part of Russia and it’s government’s support for Mr. Trump — helped along by Aras and Emin.

What do you think is the best way to handle this information and would you be able to speak to Emin about it directly?

I can also send this information to your father via Rhona, but it is ultra sensitive so I wanted to send to you first.

Best, 

Rob Goldstone.

Donald Trump Jr. replies 15 minutes later …

Thanks Rob, I appreciate that. I am on the road at the moment but perhaps I just speak to Emin first. Seems we have some time and if it’s what you say I love it especially later in the summer. Can we do a call first thing next week when I am back?

The crown prosecutor of Russia is a position directly appointed by Vladimir Putin.

billionaire could give me %.01 of his wealth and change my life while he is virtually unaffected.

0.01% of $1,000,000,000 is $100,000.

Which, for some people, is as much as they’d make in five years of 60 hour weeks of labor.

And this is one hundredth of one percent of the bare minimum of being a billionaire.

Also, if the billionaire has a decent bank account setup (which, let’s face it, billionaire has), that $100,000 will just come back the next time interest happens.  It is a perpetually regenerating $100,000.

With $100,000 I could fix my credit, buy a house in my family’s hometown and a car, drive back there to live, and have a small cushion left over to get me through till I find a local job—which wouldn’t have to be high-paying, mind, since my house would be paid off. If I brought my mom with me, she could afford to quit her three jobs and start collecting on her Social Security. We could live quite well and I might not even have to finish college to get a job with a wage that would pay our bills and expenses. “Life-changing” is no exaggeration.

reasons USA capitalism and especially “trickle down economics” are both bullshit: because they allow situations like this

ThePrettiestOne

So we're OK with implying this stuff wasn't STOLEN, so much as it jumped on to a plane of their own free will to go live in Hobby Lobby?

“[In the Hobby Lobby case] technically, the defendants… are the objects themselves, yielding an incredible case name: The United States of America v. Approximately Four Hundred Fifty (450) Ancient Cuneiform Tablets; and Approximately Three Thousand (3,000) Ancient-Clay Bullae.”

This is actually a common naming convention for cases. United States v. One Package of Japanese Pessaries is an actual Supreme Court case, for example.

(via alx-972)

They’re called in rem cases and as far as I’m concerned every single one of them is a gem name-wise. I’ve personally always been fond of United States v. Approximately 64,695 Pounds of Shark Fins, though United States v. One Tyrannosaurus Bataar Skeleton is pretty great too.

The next time the United States has to go vs. One T. Rex, I suggest we let 45 fight it personally.

Something Glorious Happens When You Use A Hydraulic Press To Extrude 6 Cheeseburgers Through A 3mm Hole

by Chris Morran
ThePrettiestOne

OK, I don't actually have 6 minutes to watch a video like this.
But is it actually safe to be running machinery like this when you're high enough to think it's a good idea to do this?

It’s late afternoon after a long weekend and lord knows you probably don’t want to be wherever you are right now. We’ve got you covered with this soul-saving video of a hydraulic press doing gloriously destructive things to a series of unlucky fast food burgers.

If you’re not familiar with the Hydraulic Press Channel on YouTube, then you’ve been missing out on some of the most hilariously pointless footage ever committed to digital video.

In the latest clip, the Finnish folks that have crushed everything from “deep freezed stuff” to cable boxes, and who were famously unable to fold a sheet of paper more than seven times, work their way through fast food burgers, with results that you can pretty much expect.

The real fun comes about two minutes into the below video, when they stack six burgers in an extrusion canister, then use the press to force the beef, cheese, buns, lettuce, pickles, and special sauce through a single 3mm hole.

When the host of the segment says, “It is going to be quite messy,” he is making a gross understatement.

Enjoy, and be sure to watch the slow-motion replay accompanied by Rossini’s “William Tell Overture.”

Help Us Identify the Officials Helping Trump Roll Back Regulations

by Robert Faturechi, Al Shaw, Terry Parris Jr., ProPublica and Danielle Ivory, The New York Times,

In February, President Trump ordered federal agencies to form task forces charged with finding regulations to weaken or eliminate. While the names of appointees to executive-agency task forces are typically made public, some agencies are refusing to reveal who is on their panels

A turtle with a "Corvette body"

by Minnesotastan
"Several years ago, a client brought me a box turtle that had been hit by a car. I used fiberglass to repair his broken shell and then released him in my woods. Recently, while walking on my hillside, I spotted an odd pattern in the leaves. To my amazement, there was my old patient with the fiberglass still on... years later! Sometimes, being a vet is the best thing there is."
From the Facebook page of the Hocking Hills Animal Center, via Bored Panda.

Addendum: There is relevant information re repairing turtle shells in this discussion thread.

“We matter”: Dozens with pre-existing conditions stage D.C. sit-in over GOP health care bill

  • Marthella Johnson was born with one kidney. At a young age, the 42-year-old resident of Little Rock, Arkansas, developed kidney stones.
  • Before the Affordable Care Act, many insurers considered kidney stones a pre-existing condition and wouldn’t insure people like Johnson. 
  • After it went into effect, Johnson said she was able to buy insurance through her state’s marketplace.
  • That could change if Congressional Republicans get their way and the ACA is repealed. 
  • That’s why Johnson and more than 100 others came from at least 21 states to Washington, D.C., on Monday to protest a bill currently before the U.S. Senate that would repeal much of the ACA and replace it with a market-oriented system. Read more (7/10/17)

when I was a kid, “parkour” was called “free-running,” which is a WAY cooler name in my opinion but anyway.

my older brother and I went through a a huge free-running phase, watching youtube videos about how to climb brick/stone walls and jump off high places safely etc.

I was already part-squirrel so it just made sense.

Eventually, we moved on from it when I was like thirteen but when that chicken flew onto the CVS Pharmacy roof and the only way to get to it was to shimmy up a concrete pole, brace myself against a chain-link fence, and then hop onto a brick ledge,

I was just like

[anime protag voice] “all of my training………… …was for this chicken.” 

What even is your life?

my brother was going through a ninja phase unrelated to naruto, I was in my naruto phase, and I guess we both like the idea of being able to jump off of building unscathed. It honestly worked out.

Are ladders illegal at the CVS Pharmacy?

Are you accusing me of being a person who stops and considers a situation before acting
