    While my parents were forcing me to do hard manual labor as punishment for not going through school fast enough, that hard manual labor consisting of me lifting boulders and carrying them around the yard into various piles, they also had a compost bin.

    On one cold winter day, I realized they had forgotten to feed me, and I was starving. And in the compost bin, uh, from the warmth and heat, from the compost, a broccoli sprout had sprouted and seeded and grown. It had been left alone over the winter, and sticking up out of that broccoli sprout was a beautiful, delicious looking head of broccoli, and I was able to snap that off and eat it as my only breakfast that day.

    That broccoli was honestly so fucking delicious.

    I still love broccoli to this day. I’ll eat it raw, I’ll eat it cooked, I’ll eat it baked, I’ll eat it mashed into a paste.

    You have no idea how good broccoli can be when you’re hungry, tired, freezing, cold, and bleeding.






  • If I’m being absolutely fair, I can also see how, if a pedophile knows that they are caught being a pedophile that the death penalty is assured, then there is the chance that they will simply kill their victims because there is a chance that they will simply get life in prison instead of being executed for their crimes.

    Maybe as an alternative, the person who commits pedophilia loses everything they own to their victim. Trump would no longer be a billionaire, he would be a poor schmuck that used to have a TV show that literal tens of millions of Americans despise to their very soul.





  • I know this goes without saying, but I’ll say it anyway. Dating someone of another race does not give you that race’s privileges.

    Like, you don’t get to say the N-word, and you don’t really get to drop the fact that you’re dating a black person as a gotcha to win an argument.

    You and her will have likely had some differences growing up. Learning about them is going to be a lot of fun and educational, so enjoy that process.

    There is nothing fundamentally tragic about being a specific race, so don’t try to become some kind of savior.

    Whatever they have experienced because of their race is normal for them so understand their normal and accept it as normal.

    And don’t worry too much. If you’ve made it to the point where you’re actually dating, then she obviously likes you, at least a little bit.

    So just rely on that and continue being who you are to the best of your ability.




  • There is probably a small silver coin sized battery that is keeping information stored in the computer’s bios somewhere on the motherboard.

    Typically you can disconnect that, and then that will cause the onboard system to lose power and forget everything that it has stored.

    If there is a configuration issue in the BIOS that is preventing the system from powering on, because of the changes you have made, doing that, removing the battery for 20 seconds or so, and any other power that may be coming into the system, can allow the system to start over from scratch and attempt to boot normally.

    That’s the joke.jpg

    ICE is shooting unarmed civilians, so seeing Boris here would make their nuts shrivel like a booger on an Arizona Tarmac in the middle of summer, and the only way for them to regain their illusion of masculinity will be to shoot him, too.
