Cute panda.

I imagine that there are some, um, kinks to be worked out.

Ha! And also...

Security drone, very expensive cat toy, what's the diff?

Didn't realize how many of these types of things there were until we got our kitties.

I missed Atropa's comment and I'm sitting here laughing at the idea of a small drone in a tiny ghost outfit (basic sheet style or, knowing her, something with ruffles and stripes) flying around the house.

My #1 question is if the drone is powerful enough to still fly around if I put it in a little ghost costume.

This is a very important question and we need answers! (ooh, little witches on broomsticks!)

Basic sheet style or layers of cheesecloth soaked in glow-in-the-dark paint, because I am a classicist.

In completely other news, someone here linked to a story on Ask a Manager; I've been visiting the site, sympathizing with those whose work situations are worse than mine. One of the pages had a link to a story about a warehouse that was being plagued with a serial defecator - kept finding piles of, um, poop around the place. They reached the point where they did DNA tests to try to find out who it was. In the comments, there was discussion of how they knew it was human poop, some suggesting that the culprit had shaped the poop to confuse the issue, leading to my nominee for the comment of the day: "Pretty sure poop-bending isn't a thing."

Probably not a surprise to anyone here, but due to the tenor of politics in the country - we have the following guidelines for texting.

Fuck you is NOT an opt out - that gets rude/angry response.

Fuck off IS an opt out.

Fuck all Democrats is NOT an opt out - mark oppose and ignore.

I have just asked what people think "Go Get Fucked" should be.

Current thought is that Go Get Fucked IS an opt out.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Tired, but not expecting to get much rest over the long weekend, because cats and Mr. S.

I seem to have gotten lucky with the GOPers I got during phone-banking. The worst I usually get is something like "never in a million years".
