one of the best movies in the last 30 years.

I need you all to know that my mother sent me this. 🤣 That is all.

way ku. we love the store, but we call it "gross out" because there are some sketchy things in there. found that soylent drink that's sposed to be a full meal replacement, but it got tossed out because it went untouched. my joke is say yes to keep the receipt because the coroner might be interested.

the "relax, read the terms and conditions. it's a trill over 10 years" crowd are full of shit.

timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/us/us-... just come and get your diabeetus here!

if scotus goes along there will most likely be rioting in the streets.

great thread. anecdotal experience: orgs run by women in my ex-corp were really successful. one of them is in the forbes n-successful women in tech. for the most part they were better developers and fixit-people for salvaging projects. they taught me a thing or two to be the "mr. wolf" in my org.

total tammy faye messner vibes. but in the end, tfm turned out to be a decent human.

on my 3rd cup and feeling fabulous.

and if you are brown, black, yellow, or female, there is a very special place in hell just for you.

wow i might have to order this for my ever growing pile of stuff to read.

the reason i know lenin's dirtnap date is that it falls on my birthday in january haha. but the economist, what a rag.

i did manage to see his brother's prankster bus up close.

ooh a sale on black tar chiba!

on other socials, one way to divert this conversation is to get tech fanboy wars started. works like a charm. i'm glad i don't see a lot of it on bsky, at least in my feeds. plus he's in the pdf files; ask melinda.

here in sillycon valley, we have this phenomenon of white-adjacent doing the heavy lifting that brown can't trust other brown at all for *anything*. you know who you are.

the phrenology discussions are terrifying. techbros are acting like this is something new. 🙄

it certainly does raise the question of wtf kind of data was used to train the ai, and what kind of oversight was used (hint: none.) i hope that bastard altman and his fancritters are sleepless for the rest of their lives.

cantonese insults are heavily food-based, but i can't find pastry related ones. when my experts wake up i might ask them. my dictionaries don't list pastry specific ones either. spanish uses "tortillera" for lesbian. latin american spanish uses "pan dulce" but meaning varies widely by region.

i never thought i'd make the connections between being hypocritically anti-abortion and protecting pdf files. if and when those pdf.files are released, i imagine that the trauma of *lots* of young girls going through forced abortions to protect rich parasites, will be uncovered. ymmv.

yeah this was a big deal then. act-up, plu, queer nation, all kept the heat on too. her colleagues in southern california, mainly from orange county, wanted to lock up aids patients.

omg the cluelessness in the thread is mind boggling. people go to the ends of the earth to defend their mediocre men, especially the old ones, but tell the women to gtfo. 2016 and 2020...liz warren for potus, nah she's too old, she's already in her 70s. vermont jesus? yes, in a heartbeat! 🙄

tech media always a day late and a dollar short.

there's still something about this that ain't quite right. i wonder what it is. hmmm.

i got burned this year. i needed swim gear, and someone cleverly posted as "swimoutlet dot com". i used my paypal exactly for this reason. they even managed to spoof usps emails. paypal was quick to investigate and refund.

my signal these days: hi my name is helena and i got your number in my contacts. let me ask you a few questions. me: no. block. report. delete. any other questions?

there's a special place in hell for yt-adjacents that do their master's heavy lifting.

squirrels in my area stash persimmons to let them ferment, and come back to get them later and get high. I just put some ghost pepper powder in the planters so they stop uprooting my plants as an intervention for their substance abuse.

My biological pronoun? Ok I guess, but you better get comfortable, this is going to take a while. GATACGCATGATTGACATGTAGCGTAGCTAGATCCATGTCGATGCAGATTACAGCACTGGATGGCTACTAGTCACTGCGTACAGGACTAGCTACAGTCACGTATGACTTAGCTAGC….

the tone deafness of corporations and their fanboy media is mind boggling. oh yeah fuck the jobs family.

Don’t be selfish, George.

I miss a pretty ocean sunset.

half this country has brain tumors for breakfast.

screw working to "increase shareholder value" even when the shareholders don't want it.

this is true too in professional life.

eewww.

i moved to brave browser from opera today on macos. bookmarks came right over. stored passwd & bitwarden migrated easily. kinda weird that the F5 key (refresh) has to be explicitly mapped. tons of nerdy things to configure. improved performance over opera. i'm impressed. 8/10 would do again.

another winner.

this thread is pure PUNishment.

By serving as the first woman Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi made history. But in doing so, she ruined the House of Representatives as a workplace. by Ross Douthat

We used to make things in this country. Like cereal designed to stop you whacking off or visiting prostitutes.

Mamdani is going to implement Marcia Marcia Marcia Law. You'll have to share a cell with your two blonde sisters, the youngest one in curls.

insane. i love it. youtube.com/shorts/n20pR...

i first saw this image sometime in college in another millennium, probably in one of my text books. i thought it was the coolest thing ever. i know there are a lot of serious problems with a certain speaker emerita that is retiring, but damn what a life and career.

there's nothing on the face of this earth worth that much money :(

dayum that's messed up.

i want both the chips and the cookie, please.
