Very dangerous animals live in Tasmania

Yes. It is NOT a truck.

It’s a three day hike, so gear. Going with my gf, those bags are two backpacks and a carry-on that has shit for afterwards. Got a night in a hotel in Launceston before flying back to Adelaide. Quick visit. Today (Thursday) is a public holiday for Australia Day, so gf only had to take one day off work.

Tiger snakes are the worry in Tasmania. Be lucky not to see one on this hike I’d say.

Sorry, Elaine. While I agree that this hurts Asian-Americans and I feel for them. You are specifically excluded from that.

I would have accepted Dems doing racism against Chao if it would have led to a reasonable chance of success for defeating McConnell in a general election. (So, not to help Amy McGrath.)

Pretty sure there’s a joke to be made here that requires someone much more clever and careful than myself to make.

Why would you ever give a 7 yo a label maker, that is dangerous stuff.

When my wife’s niece was small she had a label maker and would put labels on her stuff. Sometimes she’d make labels like “BEST AUNT EVER” and stick them on my wife.

I had one to play with when I was pretty young, probably about that age. I thought it was complete magic.

But if you didn’t press hard enough, you’re fucked.

Every time I see one of those, I think of my grandparents’ house. They had a bank of light switches in the basement, each switch with a red label.

Who says they’re dehumanizing? I don’t see “the college-educated” as dehumanizing.

Now if it’s said with a stank by someone, that’s different.

I solve this by writing “Those fucking Frogs.”
