Huh. Paris was the host city for the 1900 Olympic Games—the first to allow (22) women to compete (out of 1000). This time around there's gender parity at 5250, yeah only looking at m/f because the IOC rules are still like that.

Step 1: Pickle minced celery and collard stalks, chop chipotle pepper, mash oak-smoked garlic
Step 2: Chop chicken, make chipotle/garlic aoli, stir together
Step 3: Profit!

@sheseala so many, uhm, interesting design and architectural choices, where to start. They sure like shiplap. And possibly ships. Was that supposed to float in a flood?

@LlamaMountainStudioArts I've unsubbed from actblue, it's out of control. The main campaign messages are fewer.

Watched some women's boxing and if Khalif is looking male then so is most of the field. She is not the strongest hitter of them. She's technically very good with a quick ranging jab that precedes combinations, absolutely orthodox. Defensive, kinda boring footwork. Very polite to opponent, obviously a class act. Will medal. Quotes here worth reading if any interest:

Rent seeking much?

As an aside I do have a fancy watch which I might wear once every ten years. Daily is a Casio for timers and world time(s). Mice tend to be the same, $10 is good enough now for CAD, don't need it to jewel encrusted.
Think Logitech needs to get comfy with commodity status. $.02

I never go out and buy a coffee but right now I want to and am reasonably sure cafes will be closed. Thanks a lot brain.
You're welcome.
I was being sarcastic and you know it.
Whatever, there's the kettle.

@Maude So the proposals will have an effect, gotcha. Thanks for validating 'em.

Whoa, Google Maps/Earth aerial imagery and street vector georeferences in China aren't aligned, not even close. Cartography fail.

@TheAbbotTrithemius @redenigma from their FAQ:
Q. I thought Heathkit didn't exist anymore.
A. To paraphrase Mark Twain: The reports of our death have been greatly exaggerated.
Q. But I read it on the Internet, and Wikipedia.
A. Yeah, we saw that too. (Wikipedia once reported that the Vatican has a Death Star. Who writes this stuff?)
