I really appreciate your question and curiosity and I’m sorry if I’m coping with my own ignorance by making jokes 😀

Also, wasn’t this the plot of the hit 1990 movie starring Jeff Daniels and John Goodman, Arachnophobia?

With the price of eggs these days, why question it

I think Dawn was literally key to the story, but didn’t come into her own until season 5.

I don’t know of anything like that in this field. Is there a place to search for worker co-ops?

Not sure what type, but I’m in southern Louisiana so it gets very hot here and it didn’t like when I had it in the sun for a few days, even though it was just a little afternoon sun.

Do you keep yours inside?

I’m pretty sure my other problem is excess moisture. I need to report it in a container that drains better

I got a cutting 2 years ago and although it’s growing to 3’ long, it’s never bloomed

The one that immediately comes to mind is the use of Yaupon Holly (Ilex vomitoria) by native Americans. The story is that they used to use it to get hyped up for battle and to purge (hence “vomitoria”). This is probably more misrepresented history than folk lore, but there’s a fine line between those things.

PS: Yaupon Holly is one of the only (maybe the only?) native plant in the US that has caffeine. Its cousin in South America is actually the plant they use to make yerba mate.

I spoke to some crafters this morning after your comment and they strongly disagreed. They said that crafters that use fabric like cosplayers, quilters, sewers, and knitters use in-person retail for crafting supplies because ordering online is a gamble on quality and feel and online retailers don’t do returns because fabric is cut to order.

Their “business model” seemed so shitty because it was after they were obtained by private equity who loaded up the business with debt and stripped them down to bare bones to look better on paper and do an IPO (2021).

This is textbook private equity vulture capitalism. They even gave the CEO a half million dollar bonus the day before they filed for bankruptcy 😂

I don’t remember the workers owning the means of production in 1984, so I’m guessing fascism.

AES?

Memes

Another bankruptcy driven by private equity.

Same here. I think it’s a monitor issue as it doesn’t occur when one of my monitors is unplugged. I’ve seen it on two computers now, so I think it’s specific to Windows 11 and certain monitors.

Is one of your monitors VGA by any chance?

I do not like big nose tv man. I don’t even know why the scientists made him.

It’s just a plastic bag

Is that the whale mini boss from Dive Man’s stage in MegaMan 4?

This is amazing. Very simple but powerful message. I’d recommend sharing on corporate social media for people who aren’t on the Fediverse because they’re the ones that need it most

Who’s got a line on some Trump “I did that” stickers for gas pumps?
