The Democrats pinned all their obsessive hatred against Trump, at first, on Robert Mueller. That turned out to be a big nothingburger. He couldn’t even come up with a jay-waling ticket on Trump. Trump is a piece of shit person, but he seems to be a cleaner piece of shit than anyone else in DC. How fucking sad is that. This episode introduced The Hat’s rhetorical ‘Witch Hunt!’, an even more reactionary response than the way Trump throws it out. I’m pretty sure The Hat was one of those buckled hats in Salem in a past life. Never fear Democrats, ‘The Squad’ will save you! Or at least bilk you for contributions.

Agreed.
Don’t read if you’d like a relaxing evening. What a POS.

I like the typo.
What the Hat said about the dementia ward… umm…. was he predicting Biden?
Where’s everybody on the zooms?
I’m working, as usual on Wednesday nights.
O/T: A couple of hours ago, a narrow but intense line of thunderstorms went through SW OH, and a brief burst of high wind blew down the top half or so of my beloved magnolia tree, leaving its limbs hanging down on the driveway right behind my car. 😭🌳🌺 (At least they didn’t land ON my car.)
Also, I repeat KK’s page of CPRM. Mr. CPRM to the white courtesy (or rudeness) phone, please.
He may be working, he works 2nd shift.
Just finished talking to my daughter in Temple, TX. A tornado or heavy straight line winds , probably an F1, did a lot of tree damage, shingles off. She was OK, church got cancelled as it was under way.
Sorry to hear about your tree though, GT.
CPRM may be working, he does different shifts.
Yikes! So sorry about her tree and roof damage (guess I’d better check our brand new roof in the morning!) but glad she wasn’t hurt!
A quick Monocle/Eyepiece hack to get things working with the new layout (pull-request submitted to Trashy):
https://gitlab.com/slumbrew/forumProject/-/raw/EyepieceNewSite/monocle.user.js
The bar is there, just not visible, so setting z-index to some arbitrarily high number – UI people are welcome to show the right way to do that.
Ooh! Thanks, slummy! Is it ready for mere mortals to try to use, or does it still need some tweaks from those with better ‘puter-fu than I have?
Trashy still “owns” the canonical location; if I don’t hear from him in the next day or so I’ll merge this change in, so you should pick it up at that point but the above link should have your browser load up the newer script if you want to check it out early (I’ll bump the version number if I merge it myself so I think it’ll sort itself out in the long run).
Ooh! I have the left margin functions showing! Their placement on the page might benefit from a tweak – the Options menu link and the “R” (“Mark all comments read”) are getting covered up by the “frozen” page header when you scroll down. Thanks for working on this! I’ve been getting by without it, but I’ve missed it!
What OS/device and browser are you using?
Windows 10 Pro on an HP laptop, Firefox
Hrm. On a normal-ish sized browser with Firefox (albeit on a Mac), it’s OK:
https://ibb.co/zhXJLjw
But I think I see what you’re seeing if I make the browser very narrow:
https://ibb.co/7pSC7v6
That approximate your issue?
Not really – the left margin functions just sit up higher, like so. You can barely see the bottom of the “R” and reach it, but it and the Options above it are covered by the “floating” page header.
Huh. Weird.
I don’t have a Windows machine but I’ll play around with the various browser+OS combos I do have.
I really hate UX/UI stuff, so if any Glibs want to step up that’s be just great…
Sweet – I was unaware of the z-index thing.
My script is modified so I made the adjustment to my copy and now I have the buttons.
I’m pretty sure just setting z-index to 100 is a horrible hack but…
Anything interesting in your fork? I know you mentioned binding to Alt-X keys – that’d be interesting to add to the main branch.
Really just the accesskey thing so I could hook my own keyboard shortcut up to cycle thru new comments.
I have a style sheet that heavily modifies the look but is about half broken now. I may or may not fix it.
Suppose someone has no idea what any of that means. How would that hypothetical person install this brand new Monocle?
One would click on that link – provided they had something like Violentmonkey (or the now closed-source Greasemonkey) installed: https://violentmonkey.github.io/get-it/
*bumps up “document how to get Monocle working” on Todoist*
Hey, slummy – don’t know if this makes a difference, but when I first started using Monocle/Eyepiece, I ended up with Tampermonkey rather than Greasemonkey. (Don’t remember why – that’s been quite a while back.)
That shouldn’t matter but I’ll test it out.
As I look at it, Greasemonkey is abandoned (?) and Tampermonkey became the new hotness, but _that_ is the one that went closed source, so Violentmonkey got popular.
TL;DR – it shouldn’t matter which framework you’re using.
🙂👍
🥱😔😴
Thanks slum. Will this work on Android?
I know Mikes don’t come round much no more, but Collective Soul has a new song.
My husband just reminded me our daughter will be 21 in a month.
Why does he do things like this to me?
So you don’t miss her big day?

When is she gonna make you a grandmother? 😂😂
Happy Thursday, Glibs!

Good morning all!
More teenage anguish, this time from Simple Plan
Perfect
Share and enjoy!
Good morning, Beau and Sean!
I’m a little stiff and sore from dragging magnolia tree limbs off the driveway. Glad I only have to work half a day before I leave for a hair appointment!
Morning.
Good morning, U! How are you today?
I want to just ignore work, but I have to decide who to hire between two closely matched candidates.
Ooh! Tough decision! I wish you luck with that!
Flip a coin.
Never.
Roll a die?
🙂
suh’ fam
whats goody
Its a beautiful day to be on the stack.
Good morning, homey (and Stinky!) Hope you didn’t get the nasty weather up there, but if so, at least it wouldn’t have been while you were climbing around way too high off the ground!
Mornin, GT. I saw upthread that you were dragging magnolia limbs around. Nasty boom-booms?
No lightning, just a brief, intense high wind (leading edge of a rainstorm) blew the top half of our huge magnolia down. 😢 (onto the driveway…right behind my car. At least it wasn’t ON the car!)
That sucks, magnolias are beautiful. We’ll be getting what’s left of that weather this afternoon, in weakened form (I hope).
We had the lower part of that storm, so just a light show and some thunder. Glad to hear minimal damage GT
Mornin’, reprobates!
Mornin
Good morning, ‘patzie & OBE!
I was planning to go into the city yesterday, decided to stay home and break out the grill instead. Lucky me.

4 hours later. JFC.
Happy hour specials! $6 drafts… JFC.
Just go to the store at that point…
Am I hallucinating, or were $0.50 drafts a thing back in the ’90s?
Krikey!
