Soooo… With 2 already-wealthy men getting paid for doing the one job, outside of the official government, it’s actually the Department of Not-Really Government Redundancies and Grift, isn’t it?

And since the only good reason to make the error would be to invite another pedant into the conversation, I’m finding this whole little sidethread very satisfactory.

Learning where his house is would take no effort as he’s been so thoroughly doxxed even I saw his address and I’m basically that meme of the old lady peering at the screen through my granny-glasses.

A perfect alpha male, frightened to death at a woman saying “Hello” while he’s still in the safety of his house. Compare that to the women who ovary up and keep going while they’re being catcalled, or make the potentially life-threatening decision to say either yes or no to a strange man in a bar.

I think the only way he wouldn’t is if everyone saw him shoot Trump. Otherwise it’s automatic

It’s also been shown to hallucinate whole parts of the doctor/nurse discussion and instructions

He’s more orange than rouge. He’s also a rogue, although I prefer “felon” because it doesn’t have a connotation of rakish derring-do like rogue.

And “within the budget, of course”

“Don’t go where they’re likely to shoot you” could so easily be construed as “Don’t go where there’s Trump signs.”

I’d like to see him ship everything that would have gone to Israel to Ukraine instead

Young white men were BIGLY for Trump. If I were young and single I’d be joining the 4B movement after having them sell my rights down the river

Some people are allergic to them, but I don’t know if there’s a Venn diagram overlap with your allergies

It doesn’t increase donations to lose an election. Donors like to think they are making a difference. Maybe when the midterms get rolling, but for a while they’ll be in a slump.

California passed Proposition 8 (one man one woman)in 2008! Thankfully we saw sense, and this time we passed Prop 3 (the right to marry is a fundamental right/ equal protection).

We may be a little screwy about the number line, but hopefully we’re still a bastion of humanity.

Can you do pink peppercorns? They’re a different kind of tree but might have the same chemical.

Otherwise, some of the most “chili” flavors come from cumin and Mexican oregano and garlic. Coriander is another, and you could add a little kick with allspice. Roasting your bell peppers whole until the skin gets partly charred will give you a faux chipotle flavor. You then discard the seeds and throw them in the blender or food processor so you aren’t eating big chunks of char. Onions of course and tomatoes (canned crushed is fine) and of course ground beef and some beans, I use a can of kidney beans, with the liquid, but use what you like. Often some corn flour or meal is added for thicker, you could crush a few chips or crumble a corn tortilla for that.

I’ve got this all out of order! Char peppers under the broiler first, take out and let cool. Saute your onions in a little olive or corn oil, add garlic and beef, get it browned, add spices, turn down the heat while you get the seeds out of the peppers and chop/puree them. Add them, the tomatoes and beans, taste and add salt, and check if you got all those haphazard spices in. (It’s not done, it needs to simmer awhile, but it’s cooked enough to be safe.) Simmer for… maybe 30 minutes? Or until you’re ready to eat it? If it seems runny, add the tortilla/chip “flour” to thicken it.

What’s incredible to me is that the results really aren’t very good. We all know what they looked like young, and the AI version is just… Not Wright. No Hanks, AI.

That’s a pickup truck.

(Or in some places we call them a “pick 'em up truck.”)

The Cyberwhatsis will never be a pickup vehicle because not only can’t it carry anything heavy, it also actively repels girls.

Nah you forgot his fascination with the female chromosome. It’ll be the CyberX.

Steering wheel looks like a gun which fits since it’ll probably kill you

Well perhaps we’d better come up with something. Perhaps something along the lines of those “are you really awake?” alarm apps that require you to solve some puzzles, but specifically testing driving skills/reactions, before the vehicle will start.
