@siracusa.social Something's wrong with the Robot or Not: Pizza Robot audio file, it's playing at a very high speed. Had the problem in Overcast, and verified it on the website embedded player set to 1x. www.theincomparable.com/robot/343/

$27.17 plus fees for the 1995 Snow Bowl against Michigan. Damn near froze my feet off.

the only other person I’ve ever seen with that in their bio also billed herself as, I am not making this up, “#1 Ranked Empathy Advocate”

Pennsylvania's auditor general, a Republican, audited 210,000+ new voter registrations under Gov. Shapiro's new motor voter system to see if noncitizens were registering to vote. They found one. One. And that was because a PennDOT staffer erred. It was fixed before the driver left the office.

We have an apparent cure for most people with pancreatic cancer—a profoundly swift, deadly cancer—and the position of the U.S. government is that it should be banned. This is real fall-of-empire stuff.

Come on.

Amazing that in the national divorce the libs are getting the NFL, butter and cooking oil, being attracted to adult women, standup comedy, Bud Light, and now also Catholicism

It's weird how often the European Green Parties' core policy committments happen to line up with policies that keep Europe reliant on Russian fossil fuel exports! Just a strange coincidence that keeps happening for some reason.

matts everywhere for those with guys to see them

Exactly one year ago today:

Post the best picture(s) you have ever taken of your pet

O Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes-Benz?

Their name isn’t on the lease, it’s just a

Wait, the shoe company...? *ALLBIRDS ANNOUNCES EXPANSION INTO AI COMPUTE INFRASTRUCTURE

Pope Leo should stick to sports.

Enough with the bike helmets

Imma let you finish, but have you heard about neutrinos?

B3 sriracha and onion

Couldn’t resist the setup

Both! Sides!

I’m an index fund investor, and I can live with missing out on NVIDIA or whatever. What hurts is I bought one bottle of an Hermitage in 2009 for $35, loved it, and I just looked up the current vintage and it’s $700+.

Isn't it one of those weird mountain railroads?

They say there’s a housing crisis but

We could just replace the whole field of oncology with the Pokémon effectiveness matrix.

Food delivery should be a rare treat.

This is just to say I have eaten the lead that was in the soil and which you were probably saving to prevent engine knock Forgive me it was delicious so sweet and, like, whatever

OTD in 2022 Russian warship Moskva, that was told “go fuck yourself”, went & fucked itself and sunk. By a country without a navy. In a land war. I remain a master strategist.

A nice honeymoon used to be the Poconos or Niagara Falls, not Thailand or Barcelona.

the answer to this is obvious. real incomes are up on average, but not among bluesky users, who are statistically anomalous in their lack of business mindset.

Some folks think that for rights to be valuable, they have to be exclusive, but what makes rights valuable is that they are *defended.* And the kind of country you can be most sure will defend your rights is the country which would defend anyone's rights.

If you *think* that your standard of living is getting worse because you have miscalibrated whatever you're comparing to (standards of living in the past, the "typical" standard of living, etc) then you're going to think your standard of living is going down *regardless* of whether it is or not.

I never thought “erection” and “John P. Murtha” would be said together so frequently.

The two genders

I keep getting spam saying I won a Harbor Freight gift card and a set of their Pittsburgh-brand hand tools. I guess choosing the shittiest possible line of tools makes it more believable?

"You know how the University of Michigan says 'Go Blue', right?" "Of course." "Well, we're making limited edition Pop Tarts for colleges and Michigan would be a perfect school for this. We could do Go Blue Blu..." "Yeah, yeah, yeah. You don't need to tell me how to do my job." The result:

Can’t believe it cost me $360 to fuel my car this year

I had the moon on my profile pics before it was cool.

Revolutions are bad. They lead to suffering and death, usually of the most vulnerable populations. And they rarely result in a liberal democracy. We need reaffirmation of our shared values and of each other. I still believe in my fellow Americans because if I don't, we've already lost.

While Trump is busy lighting the Republic on fire, I don't think hostility to the Constitutiom from the left is the answer.

The *actual* reason Truman reserved this power for himself, and refused to allow it to be delegated or shared by the military, is because he believed that this was the only way to *prevent* nuclear weapons from being used again. Full stop.

Only one woman has the power to stop this

My work just sent out an employee wellness newsletter. Apparently it’s National Stress Awareness Month. Just in case any of you were unaware of your stress! Hope this helps.

Me: The Artemis II mission is doing an amazing job of reminding me about what's important in this lifetime, and not to waste so much of my energy suffering over little stuff that really isn't very consequential in the end. Also me: This fucking bullpen

Off to see my heart doctor, Dr. Bhat. Or, as I call him, Cardi B.

NASA is 0.35% of the federal budget. In the ENTIRE HISTORY of NASA it has cost about the same as just the last 2 years of the DoD budget
