Unionized Clown Posse

Spoiler: I’m a clown at a carnival and after almost quitting, all the employees unionized and now my pay is double what it used to be.

I’ve seen Korean girls dress like this unironically.

Japan is slowly burying all their overhead lines into the sidewalks. A lot of urban streets look so much nicer now than they did 10 years ago.

It’s probably no worse in an earthquake than the water mains, which would inherently be a lot more rigid than cables with intentional slack built into every segment.

The letters correspond to the physical connector. The rectangle one everyone knows is A, B is the square connector usually used with printers and other accessories. C is a small, oval connector, and the first one that can be plugged in “upside down” because it’s symmetrical.

C is now common on phones and tablets and other smaller devices. If the connector is ovalish but even smaller and weirdly shaped, that’s one of the mini/micro USB variants and you need to find the right cable to match.

(If you have a USB C cable and i won’t fit into the oval connector because it’s too big, that’s Lightning made by Apple before C existed and is only found on their devices. You have to get a cable with Lightning on at least one end.)

“Row, row, fight the power!”

OP is a Ferangi.

• Established Moscow as an international hub for commerce and industry
• Waged economical war with China to be the largest economy in Asia
• Buried the hatchet with Japan over the northern islands
• Created a direct competitor for BRICS (BICS) and tried to tie his own Asian coalition with the European Union.
• Rebooted the Russian space program to compete with NASA/SpaceX

Watching For All Mankind makes me feel bad for present-day Russians because even those Soviet Russians have it better.

Moderate rain and distant thunder.

The first quarter of the 21st century is over.

…Did you have fun?!

“Fall out of the second window, please.”

I mean, they let the Johnny the Homicidal Maniac guy make a children’s cartoon. What else was going to happen?

Like a late-stage GeoCities website when the server-side Javascript injection had gotten completely out of hand.

Dante could not have possibly envisioned all the different circles necessary to encompass our sins.

High fructose corn dog.

Luke is a new born at the end of Episode III. He’s in his late teens at the start of Episode IV. So it’s more like 15 years, if not more.

Both of them doing their best Palpatine face.
