Saw this in a comments section. And it checks out.
Black and white picture of Trump in a MAGA style hat, laughing with JD Vance in it oOval Office. Trump has his hand on JD Vance's shoulder, and Vance has his hands on his hips. Like he's belting out a big ol' belly laugh. The caption reads. "Replacing Trump with Vance is like sh!tting your pants and changing your shirt."

I finally gave up. I had installed Ubuntu on my Lenovo laptop just to see if I could get used to it. And I still HATE it!

I normally just install Linux Mint on a machine and leave it at that, since I am perfectly happy. But I decided to see what I was missing with a plain Ubuntu. Not much!

Looks like this is going to be happening.

My MacBook didn't leave macOs, macOs left my MacBook.

"The latest version of macOS Big Sur compatible with a 2014 MacBook Pro is macOS 11.7.10"

This is problematic, since that came out in 2020. And things are moving on.

But,, she's the envy of everyone AT the office.
Cartoon frame shows husband and son standing together in a cavern with ray guns or other similar probes hanging from the ceiling. There are two human size cylinders filled with some sort of fluid on one wall, a pool with sharks are in the background, along with a submarine style hatch (with a center door latch you spin). The man is facing the back of a woman, who is sitting at a desk against one wall. She is in contemplation in front of a keyboard with an array of 14 monitors in three rows in front above and around her. "Hey, honey, the second monitor was one thing, but it seems like quite the slippery slop from home office to evil lair."

A cartoon two guys at a Tesla show room are watching one of those blower inflated flailing arm guys, who is performing a left hand Nazi salute. One guy asks the other, “Do you think we can get it to stop doing that?”

Know the difference

A tweet from user RB (@rbisrb) with the caption "A Huge Difference..." features a two-panel meme. The top panel shows Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy sitting at a desk with a serious expression, with the Ukrainian flag visible in the background. The text above reads "RUSSIAN ASS KICKER." The bottom panel shows former U.S. President Donald Trump making a pouty face. The text above him reads "RUSSIAN ASS KISSER." The meme contrasts Zelenskyy's stance against Russia with a critical portrayal of Trump’s relationship with Russia.

The cartoon is from 8 years ago, and now it's kind of nostalgic that this was the biggest worry we had from him, at the time.

This is a four panel cartoon. A man and woman are asleep in bed, when the man sits bolt upright. Woman: What's wrong? Man: Just dawned on me... Next panel, the man has his hands on his head in a look of dismay: There are no aliens. No Area 51. None of it's true. Next panel, woman has sat up and turned to the man: Woman: How can you be so sure? Man: if there was. You think Trump could have kept his fat mouth shut? Next panel, the woman pulls up her knees and wraps her arms around them in disappointment. Woman: Awww. Man: Right?

Okay trying to limit myself to two cat pictures a day.

Endora's checking the cup holders for a better deal before she eats the food in her own dish.

When she's good we'll put a treat in a cup holder.
