Thisfox,

Hugs mate.

There are those of us out here who like Discovery. We just happen not to be vocal enough. Take care of yourself and be kind. I enjoy your presence.

Thisfox,

Took me a long time to parse that headline. Could be because it is 4 am I guess.

Such a lovely story. Santaing seems a somewhat stressful job, interesting that he does such long shifts.

Jimmy Carter turns 99 at home with Rosalynn and other family as tributes come from around the world (apnews.com)

ATLANTA (AP) — Jimmy Carter has always been a man of discipline and habit. But the former president will break routine Sunday, putting off his practice of quietly watching church services online to instead celebrate his 99th birthday with his wife, Rosalynn, and their children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren in Plains....

Thisfox,

…If he lives in a one storey house (makes me wonder seeing as most people do live in a one storey house, but I guess he could live in an apartment or something) why is there a picture of a two storey house in the cake photo? weirdness.

Thisfox,

Australian checking in with “I had never been told that”. I just figured it was geographical like our “mid north coast” but evidently not.

Thisfox, (edited )

So I figured I would google it, evidently some USian reference… First few links were to when students drop out of Uni or other tertiary education, apparently they are referred to as turkeys, and turkey dropouts. For some reason. Or alternatively they break up with their partners.

But apparently that is a reference to dropping live turkeys out of a helicopter in a sitcom. It sounds somewhat bloodthirsty, and I do not want to see such a thing, though I can imagine… Terrifyingly that is apparently a reference to a real world event of dropping live turkeys from the back of a moving truck…

Okay. Huh.

I knew Americans were weird about turkeys and have a holiday set aside for them, but this seems ridiculous somehow.

Thisfox,

She got out, so has the potential to see the funny side now.

Thisfox,

I still can’t.

Thisfox,

I am in Australia. Can’t see it either direction.

Thisfox,

I was totally stumped too until the answers to your query. I wasn’t thinking northern hemisphere, I guess.

Thisfox,

Awesome! Long way from me, but now I can show it to other Aussies! Thankyou!

Thisfox,

A lot of solar panels are now semitransparent too, now, meaning as you said people can grow plants below them. I love the shading cars in parking lots idea, but no one seems to have impemented that in Australia just yet.

Thisfox,

Nah, we have a public holiday for horse races. The Melbourne Cup. (not the American melbourne, the one pronounced “MELb’n” here in Oz).

Thisfox,

I think the yanks are having some sort of election, it usually is around Cup Day. They don’t have compulsory voting like us, so it’s a bit different attitudewise.

What should be used for anonymous usernames?

More often than not, the best way to hide is to simply blend in with the crowds – this also encompasses one’s choice for a username. It is relatively simple to make a single throwaway account – just come up with a username, and off you go – however, if one makes throwaway accounts often, the task of thinking of a unique,...

Thisfox,

I, too, was immediately going to recommend correct horse. It is random and it works.

This fast food order kiosk accepts cash (mander.xyz)

All the McD*nalds in my area have been upgraded with order kiosks. Regardless of all the controversy around self-checkout, and minimum wage, and automation taking our jobs, I personally love them. I can take my sweet time composing my order, I can see the full selection (such as it is), I can see pictures and prices clearly...

Thisfox,

Yeah, very odd assumption that one.

Thisfox,

Only the extremely young orphaned ones, and only because it made them look bad, not because of any form of compassion.

When the Israel phonecalls told the doctors to leave the hospital, the doctors were told to leave their patients to die. Horrific.

I fail to see any uplift in this news. Those poor babies are going to survive. yay.

Thisfox,

He looks more like he is trying to puzzle out a confusing problem in his head.

Thisfox,

He is the best.

No wait, second best. Q is the best!

But close second.

Thisfox,

His interaction with the doctor was very romantic. Not sexual, just delightfully romantic.

Thisfox,

That looks like machine embroidery with metallic threads to me. Can already imagine how you would program the machine.

Thisfox,

Orville was amazing, everything I remember trek being from my childhood. Weirdly I rewatch that childhood trek now and it isn’t what I remember… But Orville does it right.

Thisfox,

It doesn’t?

Thisfox,

Perhaps the filters should be the things being cooked and broken down.

Thisfox,

How bizarre.

Why not just ask questions the usual way?

edit: Evidently everyone really loves this show, as they are downvoting me like crazy for not having heard of it and finding it weird.

Thisfox,

Riddle me this; Why do Americans frame their answers like questions? Is it some weird meme or something?
