Let Me Warm That UP For You
If nobody has, somebody needs to come up with a microwave for the car. I feel like it would save a lot of people, such as poor Zayveon Johnson here, a whole lot of trouble. It might give us one less gimmick to run the site on, but holy crap I think I’m fine with …

Something The Unvaccinated Can Do That Isn’t The Usual Thing I Tell them They Can Do

Canadian Blood Services is encouraging people to donate blood, even if they haven’t been fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Gina Leyva, the territory manager at Canadian …
It’s Awful Out. Let’s Go For A Swim
My brain hurts. But on the bright side, at least it works. That’s more than I can say for the sludge dumps in poor disguise that whoever came up with this have to work with.
