Great question. I think we’re considered white these days. I mean jesus I’m shiny, especially in winter but none of us would live within an asses roar of any of these cunts tbh.

Absolute, unadulterated cringe.

Great advice. A simple “great picture” or “I loved this” is easy to post and essentially guaranteed not to generate a negative reaction. It’s a good way to get more comfortable commenting in general.

it was daunting after probably going a full decade without commenting on anything online

Well done. That’s a big step and more folks contributing / commenting really helps!

That spike around the elections lol. You guys were dealing with some tough times with the ol’ vino.

Yep.

I don’t. Ignore that nonsense.

Savage feat of endurance. I wonder how many calories that burns.

Oh! Well that’s a totally different slant haha! Thanks for the clarification.

Not going to define him on this

Why not? Honestly fuck that.

Milk poured all over the streets of Paris worked well for the dairy farmers to the best of my knowledge. Imagine the fucking smell two days later.

The French are first class protesters.

Glad you got some joy from her joy. Her exact text reply was:

Oh yeah that’s rlly cool

How long do they take you?

This is a great one. I’m watching TNG with my 11 year old and she loved the animation.

That’s exactly correct. The only caveat is if it’s paying off debt but it sounds like a good old fashioned screwing.

Love the timelapse. Great work.

Oh lots more detail in that. Thanks!

Great comic!

I have to recommend a podcast about the original America First movement during the WW2 era called “Ultra”. I can’t recommend it highly enough. Another lemming told me about it and I ate it up.

It involves an attempted coup, infiltration of Congress by the Nazis and the death of a sitting senator. Honestly you’ll enjoy it.

Link to Spotify.

I am with you. I like this one a lot.

Oh one other idea is your local electronics recycling centre. Our one frequently has battered Chromebooks. One by the same brand might do you. The folks in our one are friendly and would definitely give it to you for free so you might get lucky there too. Maybe leave your phone number with them also.

On your question about the loose power - I’d say that’s a dry or loose solder joint. If you’re comfortable with a soldering iron it should be easily fixed. Occasionally a heavily used connector just loses grip and if that’s the case a gentle squeeze with a pliers will do you.

Good luck! If you can’t find one for sale it might be worth posting up in a local Facebook group or equivalent asking if anyone has one. Folks frequently don’t think of selling broken kit.
