having worked on the app side in public sector IT for 20+ years and managed numerous upgrades and cutovers... may i just say kudos @immamac , this was about as seamless a transition as i have experienced.
and also i generally haaaate upgrades of any sort bc i hate change (yes i know the irony given my career) but i must have chilled in retirement because i do not hate these changes. my biggest complaint is the banner listing the forums at the top is rendering slightly different and my muscle memory hasn't quite adjusted so i keep accidentally going to Hobbies instead of Movies&TV.
so basically...

so im still kind of in the camp that thinks hmm 🤔the folks most likely to hear this news and say 'thank god i don't have to give my babies these evil vaccines anymore!' are, stay with me here...exactly the type of people you want to experience the inevitable consequences of that choice. i mean it sucks for their kids who might die and all, but that's a price i'm willing for them to pay.

"Functionally one party sees consequences from corruption. That's it. FFS, Al Franken faked a boob grab and had to resign..."
...and a 34x convicted felon, twice-impeached, pussy-grabbing, raping pedophile was elected president. twice.
this country is disgusting and sick and there is no cure.
empires fall, it's literally the most consistent thing in history. oh well.

Denver dodged a bullet this weekend!
largest fire in city in decades
if the record setting winds from a couple weeks ago had been blowing this could have quickly turned catastrophic...this is a densely populated residential and commercial area and we haven't had any measurable precipitation in months.

about 2 miles from us, pic is from yesterday, it's still smoldering today, they are making damn sure it doesn't reignite.

22 hours ago, msbesq said: It was an excellent look at him and his life. I’m old and I remember Chevy on Weekend Update. He was an incredible talent and watching him on SNL that first year was electric. He was the star of the show that year. All the untalented unfunny hacks on Community can screw themselves( but for Donald Glover who is talented). Chevy’s humor has always been acerbic and he admits he left SNL too soon. He’s left an indelible mark on comedy and if he’s a prickly asshole, so what.
21 hours ago, msbesq said: He’s a hall of fame comedic talent which no one on Community was or is. Carlin was an asshole, Pryor was an asshole, Carson and Berle were assholes.
ok, Chevy 👌
