It's not. If you see someone with a clearly broken leg and unconscious, do you wait for the person to wake up?

Religion is the last mental illness you can't call out or treat. When you have Mike Huckabees et al going around ushering in the End Times, we should have the power to medicate these people into a barely functional stupor.

Raises. It raises the question.

I'd guess they look at the telomeres but I don't how accurate it can be.

Now? You think this happens at the drop of a hat? The entire system is built that way since decades.

Could have been worse, could have been atheists running the home.

I'll have to try that, I am tired of spoilage.

Yes, and what does sodium intake have to do with anything?

Sometimes it's nice to print out a drawing to scribble on.

But where do you get new ribbons? Or can you re-ink them?

[–] HugeNerd 1 points 2 days ago

But if you put them in a nice suit and arrange a press conference, surely that will solve it?

I don't even care about Star Wars due to my crippling cynicism, but for $4.50 who cares!

 

Hey for $4.50, I'm pretty happy, plus it comes with a Bluray. I hope my next thrift find is a UHD player...

 

I noticed the "coming soon" sign a while back and now it's open. It's definitely a sense of "déjà vu", it looks pretty much like a Value Village in its layout, prices are the same. Lots of clothes, pots and pans, a few shelves of electronics, and lots of DVDs and VHS. Plus it's a 5 minute walk from the St Jacques Renaissance.

I thought those were just standard embossed letters but they're actually stickers and look really good. This is why I like physical media. And 1980s cheese.

Couldn't believe it. Not a big fan or anything but I paid 10$ for both sets.

Another one of my lucky finds. It's in pretty good shape but needs new belts. It's a monster to take apart and I don't have any belts so it's a bookend for now. 20$ is reasonable, and it looks so cool.

 

Heathkit Model O-12 tube oscilloscope. Found this among old suitcases and kid's toys at a Friperie Renaissance/Goodwill in Montréal. It still works, it's clean, I didn't need to do anything and it powered up.

 

In the last few months I decided to see what I could find on DVD and Blu-ray. It's a matter of luck and persistence but I do find good stuff now and then. Anyone else find missing Blu-rays from combo Blu-ray and DVd sets? Or DVD-Rs instead of pressed? And how do some people manage to scratch their discs so impressively?

 

Haven't seen this street performer in many years. Don't know if it's the same guy, he does look plumper now. In front of St James United March 8 afternoon.
