  1. I noticed that with tuna a few months ago. Haven't bought tuna in recently and now with shrinkflation, forget it!
  2. Welcome to the wonderful (sic) world of Stark haters and trolls.
  3. Shrinking sucks, and only happens to garments we love. I know your pain.
  4. If you want them to really last and stay bright, wash in cold and hang to dry. That's also known.
  5. Mosquitoes get no love from me either. Little bastards, go bite a tick.
  6. Spiders and snakes don't bother me that much, but what does bother me? Goddamn ticks! Hate those MFr's! Also, not so crazy about tall grass 'cuz that's where I picked up 3 revolting ticks several years ago. Fortunately, I found them while they were still 'questing' (crawling) lookin' for blood. M'eh I hate and fear those things.
  7. All of the vehicles recalled, all of them. Tesla recalls all 3,878 Cybertrucks over faulty accelerator pedal cover | Ars Technica On Monday, we learned that Tesla had suspended customer deliveries of its stainless steel-clad electric pickup truck. Now, the automaker has issued a recall for all the Cybertrucks in customer hands—nearly 4,000 of them—in order to fix a problem with the accelerator pedal. It has come at an inconvenient time for Tesla, which is laying off more than 10 percent of its workforce due to shrinking sales even as CEO Elon Musk asks for an extra $55.8 billion in compensation.
  8. If one opens the Westeros.org page, there is a link to a article about the casting, with photos.
  9. Those wetas look scary to me. Please keep them in New Zealand, thank you.
  10. In this case, JFC means joint fundraising committee. Although, it would be no surprise if the down ballot folks are swearing JFC at this new grift. The Politico article posted above tells the tale. Trump campaign asks for cut of candidates’ fundraising when they use his name and likeness - POLITICO In a letter received by Republican digital vendors this week, the Trump campaign is asking for down-ballot candidates who use his name, image and likeness in fundraising appeals to give at least 5 percent of the proceeds to the campaign...... After taking over the Republican National Committee last month, the Trump campaign established a joint fundraising committee with the RNC that allowed for the campaign to take in checks in excess of $814,000.
  11. Poor Jon Snow, and here I thought he was evil incarnate by trying to save lives and protect the realms of men, only to be upstaged by the Great and Powerful Oz, oops, I mean Bran.
  12. Trouble in Paradise? First Republican publicly backs Greene effort to oust Speaker Johnson | The Hill Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) announced Tuesday he will co-sponsor a resolution to oust Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) from the House’s top job. Massie told his colleagues during a closed-door conference meeting that he will co-sponsor the motion to vacate resolution filed late last month by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), according to three GOP lawmakers in the room, becoming the first lawmaker to publicly join Greene’s effort. Massie confirmed his announcement in a post on the social platform X.
  13. Live updates for Trump's hush money trial. Trump trial live updates: Judge denies motion to recuse himself (msn.com) Former President Donald Trump is on trial in New York City, where he is facing felony charges related to a 2016 hush money payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels. It marks the first time in history that a former U.S. president has been tried on criminal charges.
  14. I don't have an issue with legalizing pot. I do however have issues with criminalizing women's health care, criminalizing providing women's health care, criminalizing women traveling out of state for receiving women's health care, criminalizing miscarriages of pregnancies, criminalizing removal of uterus contents when the fetus has died inside, and women dying because they are denied women's health care. This extends to pregnant people as well. The issue of criminalizing women's health care goes far beyond abortion.
  15. Clear skies in North California, I saw a partial eclipse with a pinhole camera.
  16. Note to self, keep seat belt on at all times when in the air. Especially if the plane was made by Boeing.
  17. Hahaha! The guard towers would be known as, Trump Tower 1, Trump Tower 2, Trump Tower 3,...ect; ect.
  18. Jon Snow, Sansa (Alyne), Sam, and whomever else's chapter that the Gravedigger appears in. Also, all the rest of the Starks, the Night Watch, and all the other chapters. Guess I just want the whole book.
  19. Earthquakes are common in Reno and No. Nevada, and of course California, but the East Coast and NY usually do not have EQ's do they? Fraking has been reported as causing quakes, is there a lot of fraking in the East Coast?
  20. Interesting about the earthquake on the East coast, my brother in Reno, Nevada reported yesterday shaking with the quake centered west in the Sierra's, 4.8 in a tiny mountain town, Chester, CA.
  21. But do they though? How many times have the wights and the Others been seen together? I for one am not convinced the Others control the wights.
