Quietest place I have ever been - pulled over on the way to tour Talisker to take a photo and the only sound I heard was the breeze. No cars, no jets, just ... silence

I loved it. We did a hike to the Fairy Pools in torrential rain and it was fantastic (and wet.) The bowl of Cullen Skink I had afterward was one of the best meals of my life.

I should buy a smaller dog...

I should save this for every time a pickup truck dude gives me a second look while loading up my Honda Fit at the lumber yard.

A bit unsettling. Maybe that's how relics are supposed to feel.

@caitlinburke well put!

That pix did not end well fir this cow.

Unsettling like a half naked man nailed to a cross.

Who died to set us free from a terrible affliction.

Holy cow, Batman!

i imagine this is how everyday life is carried out in texas

Yes please

tortilla's a bit large

@joshmillard Texas, etc. etc.

Mitch Hedberg had a joke about going to Katz's & thinking there was too much meat on the sandwiches.

"There. Would you like anything else, sir?"
"Yes. A loaf of bread, and some other people!"

Still mad that show was cancelled. Some of Bruce Campbell's better work.

This episode is fantastic

Love too punish whistleblowers to contravene First Amendment rights.

@Goshawk First resort of a carceral society.

Good spin for this would be "Student Finds Way to Avoid Getting Plague at School"

@dreyfusslugado this issue is much bigger than "student avoids plague" because the school is explicitly punishing these kids for responsibly calling attention to a terrible, harmful policy.

As @Goshawk says, she is a whistleblower.

Bonus, this quote from the Georgia Lt Gov: "Just like a business has got to earn the trust and the confidence of their customers, I think schools are going to have to earn the trust and confidence of the parents and the students," Duncan said. "It's a work in progress, and we're going to do the best we possibly can."

Yes, please use as an example the single type of entity that is most likely, especially when large, to explicitly externalize risk leaving others to try to remedy the harms that it causes. Just in case we didn't already know what an absolute moral vacuum you are.

It's not First Amendment stuff, 1st A only protects you from the government.

Pollen season again?

I used to play zither for Knitted Dicks

30-50 feral hogs

Ha!

Naked because Germans.

@joost He's referencing a very stupid gun rights meme that was bizarrely popular in the US last year:

“IT IS MY MONEY, AND I DESIRE IT NOW, LIKE A TRUE WARRIOR!”

Millennials don't know how to sit on chairs.

why when I was a kid "dance" meant something

officer ACAB is on it

Whereas "dancing" used to consist of "sitting out" on a bench between two ferns.

Modern dance, huh? I keep looking for Martha Graham.

How much power does one of these installations generate (optimally)?

That depends on a few factors, @backseatpilot. How big or small the system is, what it's latitudinal location is, how angle it sits at in relation to the sun, and the environmental conditions of the site are (sunny vs. cloudy, snowy vs. dry, et al). This particular installation consists of 70 kilowatts (DC) of solar alongside a 50 kilowatt (AC) inverter and given it's location and the environmental conditions of the area it's located in is expected to generate 84,875 kwh of electricity.

* 84,875 kwh of electricity per year.

That's about enough to provide power to a cul-de-sac year round.

@Mr_Encyclopedia in this instance it's enough to power about 30% of an elementary school's year round usage.

I miss sneaking booze into movies

I painted the mulitplex to look like a Junior Mint box.
