It is though. Only a bit, but you can’t get that orange even using the orange concealer he uses wrong.

Fun fact, btw: it’s not spray tan. The real story is much sadder. It’s a certain brand of concealer he buys in bulk, because way back in his the Apprentice days, a talented makeup artist made him look far, far better on camera than he looked in the mirror, and he asked her how she made him look so good.

According to an interview she later gave, she explained her whole routine. It seems he stopped listening after her fist few sentences, though, because from then on he began buying the first step she used (a certain orange concealer) and just slathering it all over his face as the one and only step.

Some of his previous maids have confirmed this, and some have said he goes through shirts like no one else because the concealer stains like crazy. It’s not meant to be used that way, you’re supposed to use it sparingly underneath foundation, powder, etc. he uses it alone and in copious amounts.

Spray tan or bronzer would at least make some sense. The real story is worse.

He is that inattentive and stupid.

They’re all basically the same. Narcissistic dragons.

The bottom one. He’s pretty orange, but the contrast was clearly boosted to make him look even more orange than usual.

Also the top one. His lips never open that wide.

I get that this image has been manipulated to make him look worse, but not by much.

It’s insane he doesn’t see how bad he looks. In normal pictures he looks like a reverse orange raccoon, and he thinks that’s a good look.

Like, it’s so sad nobody in his circle can tell him how bad he always looks. They glaze him to the point he thinks he’s fucking Adonis.

Absolutely sad. And even more sad that the rest of us see how sad this is. I’d much rather see reality and be poor than look like a sad clown on the world stage.

I’d feel very bad for him and others like him (Elon, several celebrities) except I just can’t, and I couldn’t live with myself knowing how I look like an utter buffoon in front of everyone. But these fuckers have no empathy.

The dog is eating the cat litter, getting sick, and making you pay thousands in vet bills.

But you’re WINNING!

‘Perfectly capable’.

Look, it works, okay? Survival of the fittest is a misnomer; it’s survival of the fit enough.

Have we tried just dropping our babies on city asphalt with a few sticks? Maybe we’re overdoing things.

Nobody sees him eating other muppets, so 100% ambush predator.

No one knows what happens when the lights go off on Sesame Street.

I assume it’s like My Friendly Neighbourhood, and Big Bird is the apex predator. Sometimes muppets just… vanish.

Hey man, all ducks are beautiful.

Oh no, I think I bollocksed this comment, haven’t I.

Sounds like a skill issue.

Especially if it angers the US. FTFY.

Earliest I have is from 2017, 15 years after. It would be fun to see the original if it still exists.

 

If you’re assigned something to read, read it aloud to yourself. This engages not just the internal monologue part of your brain, but speaking and hearing parts, and your brain makes stronger pathways when more senses are engaged and working together.

Don’t buy (eta: or download) flash cards, draw them yourself. This engages sight and abstraction., plus motor skill areas.

Write your own notes, then read them aloud and highlight them yourself. So many parts of your brain make connections by doing this. Don’t just read. That’s not very helpful; you don’t have to study long if you study well.

I think there’s a name for this, but I’m tired and will rely on Cunningham’s whatever.

e: don’t forget about all of your senses – you have way more than 5.

 

A while ago I asked whether you are a do the good thing first or save it for later sort of person, like eat the best part or whatever.

Now I’m curious if it was a zombie apocalypse, would that change your calculation?

So not in daily life, but if you found something good but you know you’ll likely die soon.

Do you consume it all now (not just food, but media or friendship), or do you dole it out to yourself to make it last?

 

When I minimise the app and come back, or let my phone sleep and come back, Voyager puts a large blank border around the whole UI and begins behaving strangely. Sometimes it crashes, but most times, buttons and gestures stop working.

This happens when tabbing away or when the phone sleeps.

I am over the moon about these Koss 4AAA stereophones. They seem to have never been used. Came with the model 16-168 case, and all cords are pristine.

They sound amazing. I’ll include more photos, including of docs/inserts/adverts, in a comment.

The ear pads are intact and holding their oil fine. They’re pretty stiff, though, as they’ve hardened a bit over time.

I’ve heard you can use Lexol leather conditioner to soften the ear pads, but I’m scared to try. I don’t want to harm them.

What do you think?

 

Why? And does it matter what the thing/situation is?

 

Coding, documentation, whatever, that guy sucked

 

Coding, documentation, just in general.

Republican Rep. Thomas Massie roasted Attorney General Pam Bondi after she showed up on Capitol Hill with prepared insults to lob at critics while refusing to answer questions about Jeffrey Epstein. 

For hours while being grilled by lawmakers, Bondi repeatedly flipped through her binder while attacking lawmakers who dared to challenge her over the Justice Department’s botched handling of the documents on the pedophile.

“A funny thing about Bondi’s insults to members of Congress who had serious questions: Staff literally gave her flash cards with individualized insults, but she couldn’t memorize them, so you can see her shuffle through them to find the flash-cards-insult that matches the member,” Massie wrote on X on Wednesday afternoon.

The Kentucky lawmaker and regular Trump critic, who forced the vote to release the Epstein files, was one of the only GOP members to challenge Bondi over the Epstein probe.
