Excellent breakdown of the music. "Are you obsessed with this movie?" ... I'm sorry, did you ask something? Sorry, I was too busy not caring. 😆

Sometimes I know EXACTLY where an earworm comes from.

OMFG Zeetha just called Klaus "Chump" and he answered reflexively, as though used to being addressed as such. ... I'm calling it. The Baron is Zeetha's long-lost father. Ohhhhhhhhhhhh my, that's gonna set up even more conflict with Bang.

There's a post over on Twitter that I've been laughing to myself about. Some right-wing guy is celebrating that a school took down "All-Gender" bathroom signs and replaced them with "Single Occupancy Restroom" signs. And like... it's the same thing, man. You're celebrating a pointless relabeling.

This is a failure of the Principle of Least Astonishment. Computer developer? Don't know what that is? You've already failed. Learn it. Apply it.

@ass.golf is taking a well-deserved break. The important question is: can I read the entire strip (again) from the beginning before www.questionablecontent.net picks up again in January?

Me: ... I forget his name, but, you know, the guy who never talks Jer: Oh, you mean Tony. He talks! Me: Yes but YOU KNEW EXACTLY WHO I MEANT

*snort* Winter storm season? I'm from Pennsylvania. Your cute little storm season here in Sacramento is pathetic, and PA isn't really even that harsh.

Well, that's kind of fucked. Accumulating titles in my shopping bag on IndyPlanet at work. Go home, refresh. All the items are there. Add more items over the weekend. Back at work... the page is open, I see an interesting title, add it to the bag. Bag has one item.

still time to grab these before christmas, with the additional christmas gift of having bought 'em from an indie source! there's inclusive smut! doomed romance! unsettling wizard adventures! sexy dumbass adventures! worringly relevant tales of censorship! and more kateashwin.com/shop/product...

Me: *tries to buy some digital comics, but two of the links are broken on the receipt* Me: *puts in ticket* Indyplanet: *crickets* Me, 8 days later: *second ticket to chase down the first* *tries to keep the snark in check* Indyplanet next day: Here you go, all fixed, thanks for playing

Interesting. I'm using a MyQ, but just for opening and closing manually or on a timer. But I'm gonna take a look at this one. It'll detach me from the company's servers, at least.

Me, sitting on the can, starkers, waiting for metabolism to finish its job so I can start my shower: Yeah, shoes. That'll be the priority here.

It's a bit surprising that Pete Hegseth asked for two shots when he usually asks for four or five.

Consultant the boss likes is trying to sell us a 5-position switch. I mean, we need a better switch for this, and nobody makes it. Guy was doing great, and then he comes up with this Hall-effect monstrosity that needs a USB connection and shows up as a joystick control.

Dammit, now I'm gonna smell like coffee all day. I mean, there are worse things I could smell like, but still. I just WASHED these damn pants.

It's Widdershins Wednesday! That's it, that's the dynamic www.widdershinscomic.com/wdshn/novemb... #webcomics #comics

I expect we can file this under "unintended consequences."

Today's Earworm: Court of the Crimson King. It was in another waking dream this morning. WTF is my subconscious try to TELL ME

We need your help! Democrats in CA already have the most gerrymandered maps in the country, and Republicans in Indiana can do something about it. However, they are REFUSING to give Republicans a voice in Congress. Tell State Senators in Indiana they need to FIGHT for fair maps: [link]

One of my favorite things is getting to tell friends who are new to NYC that the subway "stand clear of the closing doors please" voice is a trans woman named Bernie Wagenblast and she's amazing.

Today's Earworm: Court of the Crimson King by King Crimson from the album In the Court of the Crimson King. There might be a king involved? ...And a red color? I think it was in my dream when I woke up, or something, because otherwise I have no clue where this one came from.

I'm just gonna post the picture and see how many people get it. Hee hee!

Great, now I have the Pink Panther theme as an earworm. ... Could be worse.

Fucking Samsung has made it take twice as many taps, if not more, to do anything, and nearly impossible to bring up the navigation bar without accidentally tapping on things I don't want to tap on. Is there any way to revert to an older version of their software?

It's not "low and behold" it's "lo and behold" and I'm feeling grumpy enough to write this Spelling Nazi rant.

"Dense fog advisory" You've been looking in my brain again.

Q: Hey Samsung, why did my homescreen change? A: Because we own your fucking tablet and we like it this way, fucking loser. Nobody here gives a fuck what you want. #samsung #oneui #galaxytab8

ARTISTS! You can DISABLE this feature! Protect yourself and don't assume that you're safe if you're an sfw artist!

It occurred to me to think this morning of part of the reason that KPop Demon Hunters may be even more popular that it would have been on its merits alone (and I think it's awesome to start with). It's a very positive story with a simple message of hope. Right now our world is kinda crap...

phone text message: "Sorry if this is sudden . . . I see your number saved in my phone, but I can't recall your name. Who might you be?" This is totally legit, right? And not the start of a catphishing attempt?

Peg A: measures 3/32" using my nice caliper thingy. Hole B: measures 7/64" according to the very same measuring tool. Result: Peg A does not fit into Hole B, even with a fair amount of force. For those not in the US: Not going to explain how fractions work, but 7/64" is larger than 3/32".

It's not a blow torch. It's. Not. A. Blow. Torch. It's also not a monkey wrench.

I love how Iris's bullshit just rolls off May like water off a duck, and meantime, May is effortlessly pushing past Iris's denial and making her confront her feelings. #questionablecontent #webcomic

Mechanical guys discussing some spring tensioning something something. Joe: ...this will always be in tension... Me: "I'm just a poor boy whose intentions are good" Them: *continue technical conversation* Me: Nobody, huh?

"Lenticular printing." Of COURSE I should have known that.

OH NO, THERE GOES MY ONE CUP OF COFFEE PER oh wait.

spoke with the executive director of my local food bank today and got this really incredible line: "if you donate 1 can of green beans, we can give away 1 can of green beans. but if you donate a dollar, we can give away 6 cans of green beans"

Thank you for your service. #veterans #veteransday

Hah hah, this is pretty random. I like it. @rally.luckyraven.cc here's a late entry for October. 😆

ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

Ari Melber: "...showing momentum in pockets of purple and red areas..." while the photos behind him show Abigail Spanberger wearing a purple jacket and Mikie Sherrill wearing a red shirt. Yes, I spot patterns where there are none and point them out, much to the annoyance of others. You're welcome.

Wonder why this scene looks so familiar... #WildlifeWednesday 🐦🐕

"1AM in the morning" Is that opposed to 1AM in the afternoon or 1PM in the morning? Doesn't "AM" _MEAN_ "in the morning?" *checks* Why, yes, it fucking does. Why not say "1AM in the morning an hour after midnight but 11 hours before noon when the sun is lighting the other side of the Earth?"
