worked in the HVAC industry not very long, and a long time ago, but i still remain cursed with the knowledge of what all the dumb words mean and everyone is always asking me mattie mattie what's the different between dry and wet bulb temperatures. and i know. it's awful to know but i know

magic science (@magicscience.bsky.social):

we'll all know what wet bulb is soon enough

Brooke Binkowski (@brooklynmarie.bsky.social):

Came here to say this

Lissa Harris (@lissaharris.bsky.social):

horror movie called WET BULB when

Brooke Binkowski (@brooklynmarie.bsky.social):

Oh no, everyone's going to pretend it doesn't exist until it's too late to do anything about it

Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

Call it "Sweat Bulb" to trick people into watching

"Abbie Normal"

Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

Yonks ago someone asked a Reddit admin "Why can't I just push a button to delete all my content?" and my (prolix, bystander) reply was summed up with "You think you want that until a bored teenager guesses your account password"

rahaeli (@rahaeli.bsky.social):

Content deletion is the #1 example! But, like, a lot of fraud prevention, ditto. People get very mad at gift card sellers for not making it harder for people to send thousands to scammers or PayPal not making it harder for intruders to drain accounts!

Trump gave two separate interviews while he was president in which he seemed to confuse health insurance and life insurance www.vanityfair.com/news/2017/07...

Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

I've decided that people who have decided that "Biden has to step down because he can't beat Trump" are — rather than being "rational" and "following the data and the polls" — simply shouting to the world that they think Trump is powerfully able to capture wide popular sentiment.

Freudian slips.

Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

It's either their fear that 2024 will be a repeat of 2016, & a shitheel clown will gain 20 years of political relevancy

Or their secret estimation that Trump deserves the Presidency if Biden can't tapdance down an avalanche

Or their contempt for the average American voter

Or a combo of all three

Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

I really don't know nor do I feel it relevant which motive is behind it

And I don't want to know

I just want one thing: and I want it with the burning heat of a thousand suns:

Freedom from Republican terrorism

Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

I hold the thesis that this one condition: the destruction of the political power and relevance of the Republican Party

is a necessary precondition for the future liberation of all mankind

And that in this day and age, that only happens politically

my therapist told me that i wasn't meeting my need for community because i'm waiting to be adopted by an extrovert and i've never wanted more to fire someone for being good at their job

Dr. Valerian (@physicalbadger.bsky.social):

Sometimes your only choice is to fake being the extrovert and adopt yourself 😔

potz(er)🏳️⚧️🐉🦝 (@feral-bear.bsky.social):

that's what she said!!!

Dr. Valerian (@physicalbadger.bsky.social):

That's scary,,,, your therapist is too good at her job......

It's a disgrace this case dragged out so long, but thankfully the correct decision happened eventually. Enjoy footnote 1, it's particularly brutal.

nsqe (@nsqe.bsky.social):

About darn time. This was a shockingly stupid lawsuit and it's ludicrous it took this long — all the way up to the Supreme Court and back down — to sort out.

And, side note, this is a delightful decision to read: www.aclu.org/cases/doe-v-...

Here's the missing context:

Texas has an entire police force that is used to harass small business owners who make, sell, distribute, etc beer and wine and liquor. They will walk into licensed bars and arrest people drinking beer, because they could be seen to do so from the sidewalk

Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

TABC held an entire beverage retailer chain hostage to the tune of millions of dollars of levied fines and threatened to pull their license because one shop misfiled one form on one returned case of beer. This extortion happened over the course of years.

Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

Stores here cannot sell alcoholic beverages on Sunday mornings, under a technicality holdover regulation from 1980's Blue Laws.
