...every time you link to xitter, elon drowns a puppy...

...architect here: we design protected areas of refuge where mobilty-impared occupants can shelter in place until emergency services arrive to evacuate them from the facility...

...you'll often see areas of refuge identified near elevator lobbies and equipped with hardened callboxes for emergency communication, or marked on the evacuation plan if they're in a remote location...sometimes areas of refuge are pretty subtle if you don't know to look for them: we design protected firewalls, structure, and building systems integrated into the facility so the biggest tells are usually callboxes, magnetic door hold-opens, or tracks for automatic fire curtains...

...when renovating older facilities, we do the best we can to modernise life safety within the limitations of existing infrastructure, but the general rule of thumb is that as long as you've improved upon what originally previously existed, you've satisfied your obligation even if it's not at parity with new construction...

(it's not uncommon for old facilities to have gone through a dozen or more life-safety modernisations since the advent of modern building codes, just palimpsested one-over-the-other as standards progressed)

...i mean, to be fair he was barely coherent at seventy, too: that's kind of his whole thing, sputtering out incoherent word salad so his fanbase can infer whatever they want to hear...

"Well, yes, he said that but what he really meant was this. I like him because he tells it like it is."

Don’t you think he looks tired?

...taylor swift's public statement was a well-considered cogent refutation of false endorsements posted by the trump campaign, one which pointedly resonates your position and likely merits substantially more respect than you realise...

...i quit shopping brick-and-mortar after target routinely charged more in their stores than online + shipping...

fear leads to anger.
anger leads to hate.
hate leads to fascism, i guess.

As a European, the whole registering to vote thing is honestly one of the wildest parts of the US elections to me. It’s so unnecessary complicated and prone to errors/manipulation.

...what the electorate consider a bug the politicians consider a feature...

the car's on fire
and there's no driver at the wheel
and the sewers are all muddied with a thousand lonely suicides

...yeah, they're going to jump from five baby boomers straight to millennials next change of the guard, and like, whatever, man: we acclimated to disenfranchisement thirty years ago...

...howard the duck is my standard-bearer for an unconditionally good movie which gets everything right, but it only rates 14% with critics and 38% with audiences: i'm absolutely convinced that a minority of those ratings are from folks who just didn't get it at the time and the majority are folks who've since dogpiled-on because they believe they're supposed think it's bad...

...it's not-at-all a bad movie; it's solidly entertaining from start to finish, masterfully-produced, and i love it more every time i watch it...

...in the `states, police can shoot you for any or no reason: we call it at-will liberty...

...cleanest (and cheapest) solution is a passive HDMI-to-DVI cable: the video signals are identical, so it's a trivial conversion...

...i've used this connection (from several different cable manufacturers) on many rigs...

...i get why it's funny (the donner party infamously resorted to cannibalism) but i don't get how it's ironic...

...all that and you don't even mention that he's been an open russian asset for eight years?..

...the blunt truth is that he's in too deep, as are most of the remaining republican party, and the only way to keep their heads at this point is to double-down on seizing the apparatus of state to dismiss their criminal culpability...

Don't you think he looks tired?

...do you mean xitter?..

...the hammers were in the original album art and live show before the film...

...i play a game gauging the aggregate flow of traffic and modulating my speed to avoid braking as much as possible; usually resolves to steady motion and as a consequence i don't mind the traffic so much...

...me, summer of `93, insisting that the world-wide-web would never catch on when we already have gopher: cut to fifteen years later, i'm hanging out with its author on second life of all places, and yeah, that never really caught on, either...

...so i grew up with what we called five-way in northern kentucky, and no, it's not cincinnati chili...

  • spaghetti
  • browned ground beef (or in my case since 1989, vegetarian substitute)
  • diced onions (fresh / cold)
  • dark red kidney beans (simmered / hot)
  • grated cheddar cheese (annatto-colored)
  • ketchup

...it's all layered up on a large plate in that order, bottom-to-top so the cheese melts nicely, cut into a grid pattern with a fork and knife, and then mixed together: i don't cook it often since moving out on my own thirty-five years ago but it so hits the spot when i do...
