This is a bit of local flavor I absolutely adore.

So, in Fair Oaks, at the corner of Sunrise and Fair Oaks Blvd, there is a dirt lot with a retaining wall that’s been sitting unused for decades. DECADES. Literally since the ‘80s.

The retaining wall had “NO PARKING” painted on it.

#webcomics #girlgenius Girl Genius for 12/10 (www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?da...) Weird. Usually I sleep longer in the winter– but the last few days I'm clocking in at around 6 hours of sleep. Reverse hibernation, I guess.

*I didn't "predict" this, but I did read that speculative Adrian Norman paper back in 1978, and this is very "data haven." Heaps of offshored black money, punitive strikes. Means, motive, opportunity, it's not that hard to figure out

There was a big huge deal about it, and Security was all “but what if it takes over the station’s systems and kills everybody” and Pin-Lee told them “if it wanted to do that it would have done it by now,” which in hindsight was probably not the best response.

But why?
Seriously, no need to spend money on this one people.
During Celestial Research Day in Pokémon GO, Lunatone and Solrock will be featured in Field Research with increased shiny rates.

Trainers can also purchase a $2 Timed Research that provides extra encounters with Lunatone and Solrock.

A sure sign that they are just trying to brainwash kids & parents to be NAZIs is they want to teach the "true" American history. Which is just a bunch of fucked up racist shit. <takes of historians hat>.
TPUSA rep now discussing how they want to use these chapters for making sure kids remain Christians and know “true” American history.

The artificer nodded. "I can build this wheeled chair, but why? You have an enchanted hover seat."

"Yes," the wizard fumed, "but the palace have erected magic-cancelling wards."

"Why?"

"Don't know. But they didn't think of people who need mobility aids. So I need wheels to go shout at the king."

I cannot stress enough that is some rando responds to something you reposted trying to draw you into a “but have you considered” discussion of it, they are not acting in good faith, and you just block. Please, embrace the blue sky way. block. block. block.
