Stallman eats things off his feet, is a terminal creep around women, and a terrible songwriter. But he's been correct about software licensing, how companies will use and abuse Free software, and enormously consistent about it over the years.

So yeah, he kinda sucks, but when he talks about licensing and freedom, I listen.

Floorplan kinda looks like a pee pee...

"Dropped nickles on him" - hit with a sock full of nickles

Rad! Enjoy the success high, but you're going to want to keep chasing that dragon. Don't be bummed if it fails to work a second time. They adapt, and sometimes they are having a bad day and even the coolest uncle will hit a wall.

Helpful things for bath:

  • toys that squirt water
  • bath bombs with toys inside
  • the drawing / painting stuff you mentioned
  • hand mirrors for seeing themselves covered in suds
  • cups and buckets for moving water around
  • suction cup toys for the walls (water spout things, marble race courses, etc)

Also, if you're new to working with kids, timers that visually count down (not digital, ones that have a colored wheel of how much time is left) are helpful for starting / ending tasks. Also tricks like betting them they cant wash their own hair, or you can finish a bath before the end of the timer can work well. And on nice days with a rain shower, go soap up out side. do it with them. clean off from the hose, they love it.

you're doing great! keep it up!

Nozzle for a pressure washer. Flat sides on the back seem to indicate you can use a wrench to tight it on something, like a hose or fitting.

Unfortunately his decidedly mediocre standup has too much cheap bigotry folded into it to enjoy him talking about almost anything. Old tvs are dope though.

Not a medical professional, but thank you for putting up with the public. We need you.

Osha always talks about how its not the first mistake that kills you, and I think in the case of home electrical, leaving a panel energized while your hands are in it, would count as number 1.

Calling the French Canadians "European" is pretty good shade...

Anyone who figured out messaging beyond "Look how bad Trump is, even Bush republicans won't vote for him" probably wins that election. No one had a broad vision to latch for sale, and no one did anything inspiring.

Firefox has an HTTPS-Only mode. Did you double check that? Make sure you can get anywhere on http tcp/80 in the browser.

Crash. In high school my buddy brought out all the weird horror and b-movies he could find, including crash, a movie about people who get busy after dangerous or injurious automobile incidents. Cut to a few years later, when my friend's parents are telling me a how they thought crash was so powerful and everyone should see it, and how it was nominated for a bunch of oscars, I was completely perplexed.
