It's identical to earlier models of the Logitech version as far as I can tell.

This is the one I went with. It's close in design to the M570 but better.

That's pretty much what I use, but went for another brand last time because Logitech doesn't really improve their stuff anymore.

I use trackballs, never got the hang of mice. They're superior for everything except gaming, in my experience.

First person (or fast paced) anything on a trackball leads to repetitive stress injury.

My guess is carbon monoxide poisoning.

Those reasons aren't known, so must be assumed. The migrants are typically arriving illegally and don't want the attention of interviews.

Lastly, I'm 50, and can't document my memory but typically I would listen to news on something like NPR and they would say that a migrant boat was captured, say, from Greece, and say that there's extremely high unemployment there. Other reasons given would be natural disasters, outbreaks of violence, lack of food, etc.

And the art style has started to shift. That looks like classic Charlie Brown, which is helped by the shirt.

Which just means they were always waiting for any excuse to do so.

Must've hit that leaf.

That's a completely useless headline.

I don't do sports. (self.womenshockey)
 

I'm a 50 year old dude, never cared about sports. But my wife got into PWHL last year and I started watching with her.

It doesn't have the toxicity that I've seen in so many male dominated sports. We're Minnesotans, so of course we support Frost.

Late last season we were watching a game and while the game was tied, our (Minnesota, not yet called Frost) team wasn't making as many shots on goals as they usually did, and I said that.

"What's going on? Why is Minnesota lagging in shots on goal... WHAT THE HELL HAVE YOU DONE TO ME, I'M MAKING OBSERVATIONS ABOUT SPORTS STATISTICS!!"

Left to right and actually sorted oldest to youngest we have:

Bernie Sanders is eight years old.

Miles Morales is just over four.

Abed Nadir & Troy Barnes are two and a quarter.

Maryjane is just over a year and is a foster fail. I'm the one that insisted on the failure. My dad adopted Mongo from the same litter.

Maryjane was supposed to be a Peter Parker but my wonderful professional vet tech wife was wrong this time.

Somehow everyone gets along in our house. 5 cats, 2 labradors, 1 tortoise, almost zero fights.

 

Hey all, I'm a cis ally in the upper Midwest of the USA. I offered a room to Keris a while back and she accepted.

She got here Wednesday night and things are going very well. She likes me, my wife, and our cats and one dog, and is learning to tolerate the other.

She has an attic bedroom that is her space alone.

She has time to unwind and figure out what she wants to do without fear of being dumped on the streets.

I just wanted to let you all know that we have taken her in and that she is safe and loved.

I've been a fan of They Might Be Giants for most of my life and have always been surprised that people universally disagree with me on this.

Linnell's songs tend to be quirkier but also shallower. (State Songs is a good example here - there isnt a song for every state and theyre often abstract to the point of meaninglessness. I expected such a project to have more inspiration behind it.

I've always found Flansburgh's more melodic and thoughtful, slightly better composed, and with a superior singing voice.

Of course they're a great duo and they play off each other's strengths. I don't dislike Linnell at all, just the songs that he sings tend to not be my favorites.

Said by one of my two DM friends to me while we were in a pizza joint together.

"Dude! Context! We are in public."

I have a bountiful life of riches. I run two games and play in three. Just a problem finding time for them all.
