If you want a thread for that, start one.

Accordion to my watch, it is time for some chocolate covered lady fingers.

I think I might scream if I hear one more time that Jon Ossoff is the first Jewish senator from the state of Georgia. Why is that even being pointed out? I could be wrong about this, but I’m pretty sure that Ossoff’s cultural/religious affiliation didn’t make headlines until (toward) the end of the run-off race in Georgia. I don’t think he was running in Georgia on the Jewish ticket. I think he was running as a liberal alternative to the otherwise conservative status quo, plain and simple.

I wish the media would stop giving attaboys and congratulatory pats on the back to the public for having elected someone who isn’t a white, Chrisitan male, especially when the choice they made was for the objectively better candidate. Yeah, so Jon Ossoff is Jewish. Big fucking deal. He’s more intelligent, savvy, genuine, and principled than that disgusting dipshit, David Perdue. So much emphasis on his otherness only serves to diminish his achievements and confuse people about why he was elected.

Hey guys, I was wondering if you know of any forums where we can talk about traditional Chinese medicine. I am looking for a community in this field. 

Thanks

Hi everyone,

Was just wondering if any of you are members of an Atheist organization? I was thinking of joining the FFRF, as I really like what they do. We as Atheists must also make sure we have someone standing up for us in the courts, against all the crazy religious people.

Spotted this on a "This Day In History" blurb:

Quote:Sony Corp. of America v. Universal City Studios, Inc., 464 U.S. 417 (1984), also known as the “Betamax case”, is a decision by the Supreme Court of the United States which ruled that the making of individual copies of complete television shows for purposes of time shifting does not constitute copyright infringement, but is fair use.

An "egg" about seven feet tall* that opens to allow a person to sit in it. When the shell is closed the person has access to a curved monitor and keyboard. The shell has inboard A/C and air circulation and is sound-proofed. The computer and/or any game boxes fit under the seat. (Access ports on the front of the seat.)

How much would such a system go for after development costs are recovered?

*no idea what that is in centigrade.

I've never eaten them.

I thought it might be a good idea to start a thread where you can post news stories from your local area. It might backfire on me because not a lot happens around here, but some of the stories are quite funny.

Here is one from the 13th of January:

A motorist's decision to enter a river while out for a drive was "disappointing", police say.

The driver who abandoned a 4x4 after trying to cross a river in pouring rain has left police who are "already under significant pressure" exasperated.

Emergency crews rushed to help when the Land Rover got stuck in the waters in Wincle, Cheshire, but later found the driver had left before they arrived.

Like I said, not a lot happens around here.
