I think you’re on the nose, here. I laughed at the headline, but the more I read the more I see how fucked they are. Airlines. Industrial plants. Fucking governments. This one is big in a way that will likely get used as a case study.

👊

No idea. I still wonder sometimes where the disconnect was, but I also just try to not let things like that get to me anymore. I’m having mixed success

At the time I was 22 and didn’t have a firm grasp on the idea I could tell someone being rude to go fuck themselves. It was just a bunch of old folks pining for the glory days of national pride and dysentery, but like, fuck. Snuff out a curious light like that.

I went to a panel presentation on the early colonies around the Revolution once. When they took questions, I asked if there was any special logistical problems Virginia ran into after due to how large the territory was and man, they treated me like a fuckin idiot. I still think about that. It’s not, like, important or anything I just don’t have a therapist for this sort of shit

They’re actually just human portions of a hot dog for titans. You ever see one of those mother fuckers? You don’t carry a three foot hotdog as thick as your leg, you wield it.

Torx should be the default over Phillips for sure. Phillips is fine for shit like access panels or screw terminals. Slotted is useless for anything but the adjustment on pots and thermostats. Robertson is just a proto-torx. Everything else either exists to make someone money or is a bolt

Are you fucking kidding me? You’re gonna look me in the eye and tell me the sail flying above the poop deck is called a spanker?

No one gives Tina Tumble credit for starting the whole upside-down-then-not movement

Some of y’all out here thinking you looked cool in JNCOs, suckin’ on a pacifier attached to your Tamagotchi

Y’all motherfuckers wanted a strong, traditional candy, now we’re gonna get a Tianamandm Square

Between him, This Old Tony, Electroboom, Big Clive, and Cody’s Lab, I’ve learned to fuck up in the most spectacularly well-thought-out ways

Since we’re in a science-themed shitpost area, I’d just like to take this moment to be both pedantic and gross in reminding folks that llamas and alpacas don’t just spit, they vomit into their mouths before givin’ it that hawk tuah

This one feels different. That last panel looks like something from Alan Moore

An evocative image that truly captures a genuine facet universal to the gem of human experience, for in the gulf between every one of us lies some kind of weird ghost thing fuckin up the steez

The sun be crazy. Like, it’s more or less a self-sustaining explosion that’s so far away the energy of it takes almost ten minutes to cross the void to us, but is still so powerful it can burn and blind you if you’re exposed to it for too long. And the effects are only that minor because our magnetosphere blocks most of the solar wind. That wind is coming at us at almost a million miles per hour
