  This image appears to have been color-enhanced, in case anybody is concerned with reality. A brief image search (which will no doubt do wonders for my reputation with the CIA) shows cheetah testicles range from tan to slightly-orangish-tan

  Thirded

  I assume 3M makes those inserts for their hooks because it’s difficult to mass-produce cheap hollow objects with a firm flat back.

  We don’t have that problem.

  I have stuck all manner of things to the wall with command strips — power strips, 3D-printed hooks, boxes… whatever has a flat back works fine.

  Is Pandora any better than Spotify at paying artists?

  This is awesome I’m doing it

  It must be my client then (Memmy for iOS). I don’t see any crude ASCII drawing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DC Theory: negative voltage⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not sure if it’s your post or my client, but I’m not seeing any drawing here

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What happens to my Corpse if I die in a Forest?⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m imagining what happens is they organize a giant search party to look for you (thus is not the good kind of fishy party) Eventually they find your corpse and put it in a refrigerator for a long time while your relatives argue with the police about whether you were kidnapped and muttered. Somebody pays for all this, maybe the tax payers, maybe your relatives, I don’t know. Then after all that you finally get to have your expensive funeral but on top of being sad, everybody is frustrated.

  I’m thinking, better all around if you just don’t die quite yet because that shit is just awkward.

  Gluck auf!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If there was more than one Illinois, would they be called Illinoises or Illinoi?⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I was thinking more like a split into North Illinois and South Illinois. I think we’d have to see South Illinois standing on its own before any mergers with Iowa or Indiana are on the table. Wisconsin or Michigan… I do not see that happening, no.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If there was more than one Illinois, would they be called Illinoises or Illinoi?⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes and for the same reason — they are both French words for groups of people.

  Presumably part of the draw for living in downtown San Francisco is you don’t need to pay for the upkeep and feeding of a car
