Some of our more elusive Tennessee wildlife. The very sight of him brings hope for the future.

Bitch I’m GenX, I don’t give a fuck about either of you but between boomers acting like they didn’t turn their backs on every generation that came before and after them and millenials acting like they’ve lived in the most destructive times of human existence I can’t decide which is more narcissistically delusional.
While I hate to QT mr Snark here, Id hope that anyone in a poor spot reaches out to get mental health help when they need it. The stigma over mental health gets people killed.
Well I for one hope that more democrats follow Talarico’s example and check themselves into mental hospitals to get the help they need.

It’s hard to keep perspective, but in the USA some of our cities are colossal. The Dallas-Fort Worth metro area, for example, has 8.34 million people- more than the state of Tennessee, similar to Switzerland; and its area is bigger than the state of New Jersey.

Glorious industrial footage. Get a look at those lathes 😄

The fact remains that even if the money was freely there, waiting to be used for some reason, large elements of the population (yes, you conservatives) would oppose giving it to the public at large, even if there was no inflation risk or whatever.
I’m probably a pessimist, but when I hear big tech guys talking about giving the population a universal high income, I think they mean for the ones who are still here. I think the plan is for the vast majority of us to no longer exist. Depopulation on a planet with finite resources. 🤷♂️

Naturally we can’t do New Deal style jobs programs, not even as a condition for Welfare, because that would be Socialist and interfere with the job market (ie pay more than many private-sector jobs)
If you are legally considered "able bodied", and you apply for 10+ jobs every day, and no one hires you, then you are fucked. It's economic.

Frustrating. I cannot study unless I have TOTAL SILENCE. My mind locks onto every distraction as if it’s absolutely vital that I monitor it.
And god forbid that it’s in different languages. Total mind melt.
(Sometimes I have the local Spanish radio station playing for immersion)

So, @elonmusk , you’ll allow ads like this but not from @FenixAmmoHR ? Get real.
Guys..WARNING: most "laser caps" are just a Christmas tree you wear on your head. Cheap LED lights scatter across your scalp & never reach the follicle. You're not treating hair loss, you're warming your head.

I just followed @CatsintheNavy for whimsical fun. The timeline tends toward the dark. I need something light.
In 1937, Conrad misjudged a leap as he climbed the rigging of a ship and plunged into the sea. An albatross swooped in to snatch him, but Conrad managed to smack the bird with his paw. Two boys in a rowboat rushed to scoop Conrad out of the water. One of the boys was an orphan who had lost his parents in the Hindenburg disaster earlier that year. Both boys were awarded medals, and Conrad made a full recovery after being given a tot of rum and a generous meal.

This will be the story in Tennessee in the not-so-far future.
Apparently we have no expectation of privacy when we’re out and about in public. Fair enough. But that doesn’t give anyone the right to monitor us and record our every move; that doesn’t logically follow at all. At the very least it’s creepy, and no free person can tolerate it.

Every social and religious development resulting from the Axial Age has been a disaster.
There. I’ve said it.

General rule:
If you receive a phone call and the caller has an Indian accent, hang up immediately. It’s a scam. I don’t care if caller ID shows him being in the next town over and he says his name is Ryan.

Neither of them, that far back, were what they are now, so you could say both. To say otherwise is to assume pure lineages going on for many, many millennia, and reality doesn’t work like that.
Which Africans? The sub-Saharans or the white Cro-Magnon in North Africa? Two distinct groups are indigenous to Africa

A reminder to all that tomorrow, 23 August, is the Vulcanalia, and anyone working in technical fields, or metalworking, or dealing with fire ought to keep Vulcan in mind tomorrow. Hold a bonfire.

Israel has had beefs with its neighbors for ages, but Turkey has pretty well been off the table until now. Why is Israel suddenly poking at a country with a massive, competent, NATO-trained military all the sudden? What do they think they can gain?
BREAKING: 🇹🇷🇮🇱 Israeli intelligence has information that Turkey is preparing to send offensive and defensive weapons to Syria, including advanced air defenses, i24 and Yediot Ahronoth both report.
