Word of Power Learned: Affect Juicy Healing

I guess you could say CBS Bari’d the lede and everything that went with it.

Everything is fine until you want to generate 200 billion records. Then it's OOM this and OOM that

Apparently 31% of women support Trump today in the US, which seems just fucking batshit crazy to me, but on that note: ever notice that the absolute rock bottom of Trump support seems to be about 30%? I’m increasingly convinced 1/3 of people are flat out evil, 1/3 are trying, and 1/3 have cow eyes

We’re trying to pack for a trip, and after a very confusing conversation with my wife about sleeve length, we realized that the default weather apps for iOS (left) and Android (right) are giving wildly different forecasts. I guess with the NWS being dismantled, it’s all just random numbers now.

Among the other lessons learned here, there’s one the article doesn’t point out: the infrastructure for VPNs is expensive to run. If someone is offering a free VPN, there’s going to be a catch; and if you can’t see what it is, then you’re signing a deal with the devil arstechnica.com/security/202...

Circle K puts crime machines in most of their stores and then disclaims responsibility for the crime machines, even as some of their own employees fed Circle K's own money into the crime machines. www.cnn.com/2025/12/17/u...

Please note: the Thompson Twins were neither twins nor were they named “Thompson.” I hope this clears some things up.

hi everyone! tomorrow is the cutoff for orders from my shop getting to the USA by Christmas. nora.jewelry shares would be a help!

Relevant to the fish cakes, I recently discovered that you can buy containers of the dried veggie and fish cake mix-ins that come with the nicer ramen packets and just add them to anything: a.co/d/2Mp52bf

I just now noticed this for the first time in my life, and… what do they think people are doing with these?

One of the most frustrating things about back up cameras when you’re parking is that you will quickly discover that the backup camera will prompt you to park between the lines, and then you’ll look up and realize that neither car to the side of you made any such attempt

Wait — are we now learning that we could have just done a “CBS / Paramount peace prize” instead of canceling Colbert?

It it the time of year where clicking on “search” and typing “cat tree” does not disappoint.

OH: "The only thing I've learned from Agile development training is that if you're going to paint one wall in a conference room with whiteboard paint, you'd better paint all four of them."

Developer attempts to replicate "Liquid Glass" in CSS, and once finished realizes what she'd actually created is an exploit for a fundamental, previously unknown, and rather serious browser vulnerability lyra.horse/blog/2025/12... "CSS hack accidentally becomes regular hack"

Look, all encryption is end-to-end if you let marketing define the ends.

Sigh.

Get in, losers, we’re invading the torment nexus.

"Okay, now this next one is really easy. You have these four lines, and then just repeat 'simply having a wonderful Christmas time' 136 times with the same intonation. Actually, you know what? Just do it once and we'll loop it. Ready?"

Looks like it’s food postin’ time, so… I made pozole.

Look, socializing the idea that there will be a reckoning is important, and serves two purposes: (1) the more it becomes expected, the more political clearance there will be for it to actually happen, and (2) the more it is spoken of, the more likely people are to temper their transgressions.

Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

I tell you what, it’s the little personal touches that make LinkedIn’s recruiter outreach messages so appealing.

In a meeting with a discount wireless carrier, one of the sales engineers started his pitch for our service platform. The carrier's CTO immediately cut him off with "Look. Our primary demographic is pimps who buy their girls phones so they can keep track of them. We don't sell value-added services."

Hrm. There’s some work to do here.

I actually *do* know who needs to hear this, but I'm not gonna call them out, plus it's a long list at this point, but right now, outside, there's grass. Go there. Touch it. Keep touching it until *whatever* that was subsides. Now keep at it a little longer to make sure you're ready to come back.

Clickbait headline: "American oligarchs don't want you to know this one simple trick that eliminates fascists!"

“Now hiring death-penalty judges to try guilty defendants.”

For literally the past 800 years, the foundation of western society has been that the people in government are subject to the same laws as the people they govern. So I should be able to say the same things about Trump as he says about sitting congressional representatives, with the same consequences

My "Trump Does Not Want To Execute Members of Congress" t-shirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my shirt.

The articles about Target's disappointing financial results (with the release of their Q3 numbers showing a continued slide in sales) are baffling in their complete lack of analysis. Forbes seems to get it, but everyone else seems tickled to leave the quiet part quiet. www.forbes.com/sites/dougme...

Even with *waves at congress and two rulings out of Texas*, Rian Johnson managed to capture two slots in “Now Breezing” by rejecting the notion of a Muppets Knives Out.

Look, y’all, we had a whole thing about masks. It’s 2025. If you’re out in public with a relentless rattling cough and no mask, you’re clearly a goddamned psychopath. We live in a society. Act like it.

You just know Higgins is preparing to flee the country ahead of whatever revelations these files have about him.

It’ll be comically ironic if the Texas redistricting is struck down but the California one isn’t.

On approach to LGA: “Ladies and gentlemen, if you are sitting on the left side of the plane, you will see a beautiful view of New York City. <pause> And if you are sitting on the right side, you will see Brooklyn.”

Okay, this is the *core* thing that bothers me about the fuck the south discourse

More than one out of every 20 people in the US self-identify as bisexual, and a substantial fraction of the remaining 19 apparently have no clue.

It seems to me that there *have* to be a lot of GOP congressmen who have had enough time to let this month’s electoral blowout sink in, who now realize that the only chance they have in the midterms is if someone different is in the White House. These upcoming votes could be interesting.

I honestly thought the damning evidence that finally took down the whole house of cards was going to be disgusting trafficking and child abuse stuff, not hilarious consensual behavior that finally caused the redneck caucus to clutch whatever they have instead of pearls.

Person in charge of training leopards to eat faces has face eaten by leopards. Details at 10.

“Holy shit, the leopards were intended for our faces all along”

NOOOOOOOOO!!!
