STRAIGHT MEN: What about people shitting next to you makes you want to stop and chat for 10min in the middle of an airport bathroom.

I made the mistake of paying any attention to politics this week/month/season/etc. so here's this breakfast burrito I just ate at the ABQ airport.

TREE UP

Remember when we all acted like DOGE was a legitimate and legal government entity that we should take seriously and follow all their orders for some inexplicable reason? That was so weird.

Thinkin' bout the time the CEO of my previous employer was added to the OKC office group/nonsense chat out of nowhere and the following 15min I spent deleting most of my messages from the previous 6 months.

this really is the defining image of our time

With Microsoft directly lying to consumers and EOLing Windows 10, you can sign up for Windows 10 Extended Security Updates through next year if you have Windows 10 Home, Pro, Workstation, or Pro Education. I have Windows 10 Education Edition. Fucking Microsoft.

Nobody wants shit like this.

Poor Things is still my favorite Yorgos Lanthimos/Emma Stone movie, but Bugonia is far more entertaining.

I turned the heat on. For the second year in a row, there was no burning dust smell.

M33t me by tha Class War Rock

Sp00ky 730am thunderstorm

Soooooo cool that all of my group texts are broken because Google and Apple can't get their shit together with RCS.

We did it, congrats everyone

I need to get back into coffee now that my porch isn't a pigeon poop wasteland. For Porch Coffee. (pictured: Spooky Ghost)

God being off Twitter for so long made me forget how petty stormchasers are about supposed "content theft".

"Let's do binary stars."

3 years since a Nazi bought Twitter and 1 year since that purchase helped elect Trump. That's enough time to realize that posting on Bluesky is better than posting on Twitter, even if it means a temporary (or even permanent) hit to total engagement numbers.

Idk if I've ever known anyone personally who started a business and didn't eventually turn into an absolute menace because of it.

Why do flashmobs always pick the most insufferable songs

I don't remember what class it was for or what the writing assignment was about, but I forgot about some sort of writing assignment that had to be uploaded to Blackboard at 11pm until an hour before it was due and got it uploaded with less than 30sec to spare and got an A-. I am AI.

Been on a roll so far with managing to find a good primary care doctor and dentist, hoping the streak continues for a therapist and I don't have a repeat of the one I tried in Norman who quite literally asked me "well have you tried making friends?" when I said I was having loneliness issues.

if you're concerned about information security, you should know Signal isn't actually secure. instead, try Mastodon, which is a website where you can be guaranteed no one will ever see what you post

Weird amount and intensity of trash political takes today.

Kids these days and their 6-7 bullshit. Back in my day we had QUALITY brain rot like streblo.

In other news, Balloon Fiesta!

Kidding aside, today's another day where I regret not publishing my senior thesis in 2014 linking TDS height to tornado strength. Would have been nice to be one of the first, officially instead of essentially anecdotally.

Hey Oklahoma fucks, try watching this.

I have zero fucking clue which tornado this is.

I miss The Mother Of Clouds In The Desert

I know the answer is "who the fuck knows", but why, WHY is there this like hyper-specific video genre of like alien vaguely turd-shaped objects causing a disaster in a city literally ALL over Facebook

Ok to be fair most of us that are pro-Palestine DO need mental health resources in some way.

The one and only artifact relating even tangentially to my previous job I'll ever display (the coin in the middle). Received as "appreciation" during the 2 month, 4 deployment-to-Mississippi hellfire of a flight test campaign that was so horrendous that I found another job and moved to Albuquerque.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmok.

The military has it's problems, sure, but where else in the government do you see this level of spicy direct verbal battery of a department secretary

It's probably a contractor with funds already allocated (that's why I'm still working), but my god these fucking idiots have zero optics skills.

Today is our first day without federal funding. Our commitment to providing trusted, objective journalism hasn't wavered. For 50 years, PBS News has helped you understand the world and make informed decisions. This mission drives our work every day, and your support of PBS News makes it possible.

I know a Republican would never do anything involving interacting with regular people, but can you imagine the horror of getting a personal tour of the capitol from like Ted Cruz or Lindsay Graham as a child?

Instead of sparkling water, package contained bobcat

Per usual, a NOTAM being misleading and vague. "TFR for Special Security Reasons" means essentially nothing without additional context, there's currently like 25 "TFR SSRs" active right now, some for wildfires, some for SpaceX Starship launches, there's even a permanent one over Disneyland.

Customer: (not on record) DMV: ? Verdict: ACCEPTED

Of all the things Trump has tried to market under his name (Trump Steaks, Trump Shuttle, Trump Vodka, Trump Ice, Trumptini, etc), why has he never done Trump Ties? Trump Ties: The Big Red Tie that hides your sad sad little crotch.

Revisiting my hopefully eventual Stupid Roadtrip: - The Kearny Archway, Kearny, NE - Lone Tree, WY - Bill, WY - The northern New Mexico Panhandle - The only Frank Lloyd Wright skyscraper (Price Tower), Bartlesville, OK - The Beatrice, NE McDonald's where my group sat waiting on 4/14/12.

The most delusional thing here is that he assumes he's capable of attracting a wife.

Hot take: the music score for Lawrence of Arabia is vastly more of a classic than the movie itself.

“Cruz was the sole objecting senator, who claimed without evidence that Wyden’s bill could disrupt law enforcement, “such as knowing where sexual predators are living.”” the White House?
