just maybe not this particular goverment. We'd end up with one channel of 24/7 military marches, Mass For Shut-Ins reruns and mypillow commercials.

Nice! Plus you've got an AUI for networking so you can wrestle thicknet cables with vampire taps if you are feeling particularly nostalgic.

I love this! Will these be on sale sometime soon?
I've also been toying coming up with a logo combining the UCSC Banana Slug with Bananaball (BananaSlugBall?). Would love to see that in mug form too. :)

The question that we all need to ask ourselves is "who is the head vampire"?

What's your favorite comic from the 1980s/90s? I'd have to say Bloom County but love Far Side and Calvin & Hobbes too. So much sharp, clever humor.

Nice. So the US has become the country of "look what you made me do"?

If you haven't seen it, 19-2 (English version has Jared Keeso) is a truly excellent Canadian cop show with s2e1 being especially good.

I'm a bit embarassed to admit that I sometimes press on long words in physical books, expecting a definition box to pop up.
So far, nothing like that has appeared, which I think is a good thing.

And if it's one of the fake Christian pregnancy clinics, they're happy to string along those mothers until the moment they can no longer abort the child. Then they get ghosted because all these ghouls really care about is feeling good about making someone who doesn't look like them feel bad.

run up and look at the paper then run away. What are you doing?"
The man says "I'm checking the obituaries."
The keep chuckles and says "but comrade, the obituaries are on page 7"
As the man sets off on his way, he looks over his shoulder and says "not the one I'm looking for, comrade"

Back during the Stalin days, shopkeeps used to put the newspaper front page in the window for passerby to see.
Every day he saw a man run up, look at the front quickly then run away.
After months of this happening, the keep finally stopped the man and said "comrade, I see you every morning

My Moroccan friends used to say that the US was more corrupt than Morocco. The difference is that the US has better marketing to normalize the corruption.

Most 'entrepreneurs' are white guys that got lucky. They come from moneyed families and/or they were in exactly the right place at the right time and/or they found a new scam or found new ways to steal money from the poors.
Entrepreneur is just another way of saying petite bourgeoisie.

My state's challenge: read the following two sentences without laughing:
"I don't understand why many high school graduates go to college in another state and never come back."
"The state legislature is focussed on banning weed, trans athletes, paid sick leave, livable wages and lab grown meat."

Wow, I haven't thought of DECnet in a painful number of years.
It was always easy to sell Cisco gear to banks as they all needed the enterprise code to run some oddball proprietary protocol that only Cisco had figured out.
