Why does Bloomberg need to have a posting about an arbitration clause for me to be rejected from reading a newsletter I don't have a subscription to?

Fox goatus and fuck arbitration

Something that popped up on a Bloomberg website. Terms of service that specify agreement to an arbitration process. I don't fucking get it?

Oh my god there's a spider in my house!
Picture of a dunkin' donuts donut that's made to look like a spider Orange icing with a brown munchkin with two dots and some stripes to look like legs. Sitting on a counter next to a bag that says dunkin' donuts. A half empty napkin holder is visible as well as a sad overused coffee pot.

I should really talk to the management. The decorations haven't changed in 4.5 billion years.

Objective destructive
dis-assembly.

Achievement unlocked. 😜
10-year-old boy in a blue hat and a red shirt is sitting on a patio chair on a patio. He is learning the term destructive disassembly. He is taking apart a remote controlled truck to recycle the battery and see how the parts fit There's a hose in the foreground a table and a hose carrier in the mid-ground and a 96 gallon recyclable container in the background. At the corner of the patio is a bird bath that is being ignored by all the birds. Daddy is pissed off about that.

This is a screenshot of an Instagram post showing a black Labrador raising his leg and peeing on a sign that says no dog's allowed. There's a parking lot on the left of the picture and in the background there's a police car.

Tarts too, I presume.

Fancey a 10 lb burger with Mallort?
This is a bad picture of a section of a mat from the Clinton station diner in Clinton New Jersey. It is a list of challenges available at the diner. If you're bored and don't know how to die in a spectacular way the first one is... A chance to win $2,000 by devouring a 100 lb burger with you and nine friends. FYI the burger itself costs about 600 bucks. (Back of the envelope that's 40 Big Mac per friend) Thinking about it makes me want to puke. YouTube has a video of an attempt. I'm going to leave the rest of the challenges to your imagination they may actually get more achievable as they go down the list. And what's the fun of that?

I just got to chat request from the individual below. I can't tell if it's for real or some sort of spam.

Not somebody I'm following

Oh poo. Can't seem to get them to have the same charge.
Small hand holding a balloon up. Attached to the balloon is a thin strip of plastic. It's an attempt through static electricity to make this thin strip of plastic float. It's not going well :-)

You do battle with your coffee maker?

They're supposed to be our allies. 😭

I've given up fighting with my redesigned mr. coffee Thing leaks. Filters don't fit. #baddesign
This is a picture of a Mr coffee. The new design. A black four cup coffee maker. I don't like it. The filter basket is just slightly too small. The door in its position means every time I open it condensation leaks down into the coffee machine and out onto the plate. Why they change the design? it drips coffee. Now the OP is showing I think actually an espresso which looks tasty but my pinkies don't work so I keep it simple. Have a good day.

Honestly officer. This was full just an hour ago. I don't know what happened.

A picture of a mostly empty child's piggy bank. Just a plastic bottle with a opening on the top that counts coins as they go in. Bank is on a table in a living room and in the background there is a stuffed bear with a red handkerchief and a brown hat.

I gave the son of a bitch the finger...
Picture of a gray squirrel sitting on a fence post through the window of my office. There's a screen in the way that makes the picture kind of crappy to look at. When a squirrel is just sitting there eyeballing me. Thankfully not shaking his tail at me like they normally do. Not shown the big fucking double fingers I threw them him. There's a yellow house in the background on the left and in the right and the background a yellow garage. The fence is wood and old and needs to be replaced like my soul.

That's awesome. Mine surprised me the other day. We had corn made for dinner which he does not like.

I stepped away from the table to return to find next to the corn on his plate...

I don't know about you but our squirrels are fucking humongous 😝
Shot out of a back window of the house onto the snow covered backyard. There are large tracks and loops around a grill. On the ground. The tracks are too big for a bunny or a squirrel too small for an adult. My son had a fun day.

Honestly, this is just disgusting.
Screenshot of a YouTube commercial for a Christian Filipino marriage site. There's an older gentleman's on the right and a young Filipino woman with long black hair on the left. I'm completely horrified at good Christians or advertising to buy young women.
