A customer came in this morning with a holstered pistol. He wasn’t like, scary or anything or threatening anyone with it, but just...why? The fuck do you need a gun with you at 9am in a grocery store for? Lame.
We used to have a guy that would swing by all the time on his way home, worked as a driver for one of those armored trucks, and he'd have a holstered gun, just because he was still half in uniform.

Our arguably best and most experienced field tech has been frozen out of two major incidents in favour of other techs that were much further away and had less expertise. She is livid.
And I can't help but thinking that she being a woman is not a coincidence with those decisions.
Executives are a blight.

Ooh, Tesco delivery slots are available again on timescales measured in days instead of weeks
Thrilled that the lifting of lockdown has restored another reason not to leave the house
what you need is a poorly-regulated gig economy of shopper-drivers with no barrier to entry
This is the shoply thing or whatever it is?
I remember there was something like that when I was at uni called in60, as in "we'll bring you whatever you want that is available from a shop within our catchment area in 60 minutes"
This was pre mobile internet though, so placing an order was like talking to a taxi dispatcher
It actually worked pretty well but this is also pre-softbank venture capital so it lost catastrophic amounts of money

Those ufo videos do nothing for me. I automatically attribute it to some random phenomena we don’t know what and will never know.
Honestly would probably need zoom in on a cockpit window and an alien waving back in 8k resolution, proven to be authentic footage, for me to give it any kind of consideration that it’s aliens.

The fact people have been taking pictures and video of "UFOs" for 80+ years and still the absolute best we can get even with modern gear is blinky out of focus splotches is kind of telling.
I was asked to make a level 15 starfinder character to playtest part of a module.
JFC it was a lot of work but the outcome is hilarious.
Ending up with a Vesk (A Star Trek Gorn more or less) wearing a powered armor that has roughly the same features as him, including a tail. So a Gorn in a Gorn mech.
3 Mounted Weapons, an Acid Spray Blast (Cone AoE) and a Hailcannon (Long Range/Automatic Ice weapon) on shoulders, and a Grenade launcher on my back. Then my superdeadly grenade in one hand, and my other hand empty to punch people. And because of rules, I am allowed to hold a shield in my tail. Its so utterly ridiculous.
Specced towards defense and explosions, I basically made a Metal Gear final boss. Shoots you with 3 different guns depending on how close you are, and if you get next to me punches you in the face.
The curry place we used to order from in Birmingham laid out its menu such that for any given curry you had the option of (in descending order of price):
King prawn
Lamb
Chicken
Vegetable
Meat
I never indulged my curiosity and ordered like a meat dhansak

it's pretty convenient and most times something on your order will be wrong but at least i don't have to go out to the store right now
Allegedly a voice of reason.

All groceries should be call ahead pick up orders, change my mind
As I've been cooking more, several decades too late but hey, I've realized that cooking meat has got to be male coded primarily because the best way to cook steak etc. is to put it down and then only touch it once. Men!

I wonder if it has to do with the original Weber grill using hardware stores as their distribution system and thinking that mostly men were shopping there. It sounds plausible...

Oh I'm not saying they don't exist, I just adhere to the Calvin school of thought, the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us.

It was February
One hopes they use some nice water based lubricant
No they are killed by water and are also probably silicon lifeforms

Brown utterly dominating, no contest, I feel sorry for the other dog.
