The hobo in this case does happen to have a shotgun.

Trump threatens with high tariffs for Danmark if they do not sell Greenland to him. He also wants to add Canada to the United States.
Next, he will probably threaten to kill Santa if the North Pole does not sell him Alaska

Don't forget Panama, which is probably the most credible threat of the 3

Musk is now pressuring Trump to take Britain as well.

I'm honestly concerned that they are throwing out many targets in order to lower the bar, so that when they actually do launch a military takeover of a foreign nation people will be relieved that it wasn't something even worse.

The 51st state?

[martinuzz]

Trump already called Canada the 51th state

I dunno. I feel like if they really wanted to take over a place they'd be quiet about it, like what China did with the SCS, just slowly building up and taking over piecemeal. Sounds like it's more for riling up his own domestic fanbase

Well, it's Musk. Guy's zapped out on ket a lot of the time these days I gather.

Sadly, that actually sounds plausible.

If the US is going to rename the Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America, I think we should counter that by referring to North America and South America as North- and South Mexico from now on.

Had some pain on my face, figured it was an ingrown beard hair.

Nope, pulled out a short-but-monstrous pili multigemini. No wonder it hurt, it must have barely fit the follicle.

My mother decided to get me and my brother some hair growth serum for christmas, as I am developing a widow's peak and he is thinning on top, and he in particular is a bit self conscious about it.* I decided to try it today, because why not.

The box describes the sensation it should cause as 'warm and tingling'. It's more like I rubbed deep heat muscle relaxant on my forehead. Stuff kinda burns for a few minutes, certainly more than I anticipated.


*I am too, but not as much as I generally wear my hair at a length that can hide the widow's peak, while my brother likes his hair a bit longer and it makes the thinning more apparent rather than less.

Why are the two of you fighting your dashing Picardine looks hiding under the failed hirsutism?

[None]

one should choose to look so dashingly good as Picard, or the equally good choice to look dashingly not like Picard

i haven't been growing out my curly hair for years to take his seat at the captain's helm, y'know

We both rather like our hair really. My brother could probably rock the bald with a beard look if it comes down to it, but he's no where near that point yet. Too hairy to shave, but thinning enough to feel self conscious, which is a tricky spot and hair serum might help him.

I on the other hand would need to sort out my beard plucking issue before I would even consider going bald. I need some hair on my head to offset my pasty white skin. Besides, other than the forming widow's peak I still have a good head of hair. The widow's peak does however fuck with my natural curls, so I can't wear my hair long without it looking incredibly stupid,* which is why I stopped growing it out years ago.


*I used to have shoulder length natural ringlets. Hair would just naturally fall into them when allowed to air dry from wet, or after the natural oils got a chance to build a bit between shampoos. When my peak started to form the fringe went from falling down as 5-8 distinct curls of hair with a nice spread of volume into one mega-curl that ran down the middle of my forehead and would rest on either side of my nose. It was not a great look, and trying to fix it would have required way more effort than I was willing to put in to my hair.

Los Angeles is on fire.

I was watching the news last night before I went to bed, seeing the fires raging out in the boonies and the reporters saying they hoped it would not turn towards the more densely populated cities. It seems that's exactly what happened while I slept.

Sorry to say it's unlikely to work.

Only things known to help are minoxidil and finasteride (And maybe ribose solution). Minoxidil shouldn't feel hot unless they added deep heat to make it seem like it's doing something, and finasteride is a pill.
