A friend of mine noticed that a police car was coming up fast behind us so he told our friend with a joint to get rid of it. The police car had its lights flashing and though we were going probably 60 or 70 it was easily going 80 or 90.

The friend flicked it right out the window, and to my great horror it went right in the window of the cop car as it sailed by us. We could see it bounce into the back window like a hammer striking iron, The cab lit up brighter than I thought a single joint would shine against the glare of the cherries and berries.

We immediately got off the highway, took the first few turns we could and then parked in a driveway with all the lights off.

Two police cars drove down the street behind us with lights flashing but no sirens while we hunkered down trying to avoid being seen. We just kind of hid there for probably 40 minutes until we stop seeing police lights.

What’s the opposite of white noise? Because it’s that. That’s what I hear.

Union busting, lavish funding for genocide, corporate tax cuts, no healthcare plan, increased funding for police, pro-fracking, pro-drilling, 'tough on immigration ', etc etc

Nothing of value was lost.

Not enough. Israel should be sanctioned and its entire government arrested.

[oh no… Anyway. PNG]

Unfortunately for many of us Americans, there is a substantial contingent of our government that would really like to do away with public schools.

Yet getting hernia corrected is $16,000. $900 barely pays the rent for a month anywhere in the country.

When the cost of living is so high the cost of dying needs to be levied on the ones responsible.

When I saw my first textbook that had an XKCD comic in it I had A little bit of a squeal of joy. I’m old What do I know.

“Holmgard and beyond! That’s where the winds will us guide!!”

Is she from the Maxx? It was an animated show on MTV a long time ago. Her name is Sarah and there’s a whole part where she gets a gun to defend herself but she always comes across as a little bit deranged.

Straight to the top of the thread for you.

I’ve worked in 2 different schools in the IT department and 4 others as a volunteer lecturer (I got a name tag that said Technology Evangelist) I found that putting an analog clock on the screen saver of computers in the classroom was more likely to result in the clock actually being on time.

Too many clocks in classrooms are very old or even battery powered but neglected.

I don’t think kids are dumb just they aren’t getting a world that is properly maintained by competent people that care about their work and are adequately resourced to do the whole job.

You are awesome.

Lemmy is better for you being here. Thanks for the reading material!

I’m just going to assume those 4 dollar words are real and you aren’t just misspelling normal words to fuck with us.

Non surjective free magma? What about the doblastic amortized basalt?

See they’re having us fill the whole back up again. This isn’t a mass grave. They’re just putting us to work! See creating jobs why complain?

I think it might have exploded if I hit “undo”

The series has a very satisfying conclusion.

It’s one of the coolest fucking things we watched this last year.

My hourly rate for tutoring is actually about 50% higher than my hourly rate for on call support which is about 100% higher than my hourly rate for work.

I’m trying to afford groceries here, It’s not 90 days payable It’s pay-per-play. I’m tired of trying to finance an inhaler while the boss’s favorite child can’t decide on a font color and thinks that 5 minute phone calls at 7:30 on a friday are free.
