Imagine this, but with a sample set that can't be easily replicated and no one believes that you didn't doctor them somehow. Not fun.

This is from The Nanny, but I don't know the episode. Those are the two main characters, though Fran is in a blond wig for some reason. It was made in the 90s and not in black and white, so this must have been a strange episode.

Oh! I found it, or at least this clip: https://youtu.be/82NuUC8WBko?si=30zJLoRGSBjtAnN7

Orange. Pure orange, yellow orange, neon, burnt. Not so much red-orange, but I do love oranges that have a bit of a pink sheen, like padparadscha sapphires.

Video killed the radio star. Still remember watching Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit ad nauseum.

And you stuck to the main, very large highways instead of trying the smaller routes. I always wonder if the Waze era of travel has helped or hurt smaller communities.

Minneapolis should make public transit free for a few* months, to encourage folks to use that instead. Golden opportunity.

How about you just don't make this kind of analogy in the year 2024?

Prop 1 is just the first proposition on that ballot. It gets reused every time. It's preferable to reference the actual title of the proposition, rather than just saying Prop 1.

Twelve FEET? Like, two six-foot- tall people standing on top of each other?? 🤯

"The government" doesn't want to argue that. Some idiot politicians do.

Just wanted to tell you that I really enjoyed reading your take on Swift. Thanks for sharing. ☺️

Whoa, I haven't seen that new guy. Gross. That doesn't seem like a Nebula-type creator.

They gross me out. IDK why. Yes, it's dumb of me. I don't mean to harsh on anyone else's mellow, just not for me I guess! Anyone else?

I'm about to sound like the ignorant American I am, so I apologize in advance! We're looking at a trip to Germany, and possibly Prague, and we've noticed that a lot of the hotel names are French and a couple hotels that aren't named in French have replied to comments with things like "Bonjour! etc etc" What's up with this? Is French just the most commonly spoken common language, even in Germany and Czechia? (I know that Germany and Czechia have their own languages, of course.) Or is it something else?

 

You can speak concisely, or prefer concise writing, but not quite with concision. I prefer conciseness? Conciquity? Concisement? Why is there no noun for this word??

I'm coming back to this game after taking several years off. My highest level character is a 58. I am completely overwhelmed by my own inventory, and can't remember anything! I did manage to find my house, at least.

Is there a guide out there somewhere for people like me? I don't even know where to start. I debated starting a new character (I have one open slot) just to go through the tutorial again, but I'd much rather play my main.

Turns out I actually have five houses! 😂

 

I just think this is a really helpful and insightful comment, that deserves to be highlighted.

 
 

A true antique

 

As I was sitting in a plane for twenty minutes, taxiing from one end of this monstrosity to the other, I thought of this community! Inside the airport is even worse. It's just this GIANT, sprawling mall+airport thing, with flat parking deserts in between terminals that are so far apart you have to take a monorail to them. Absolutely wild.

Back in the day, before r implemented rewards, people would just tip each other for useful/insightful/whatever comments in cryptos like Doge or Reddcoin, even BTC before it became too expensive to tip with. I know we can use Mastodon bots here, but I have no idea what's available.

Someone could also make a new coin specifically for Lemmy. Maybe Beancoin. 😁 🫘🫛
