ANOTHER GATDANG CYBERTRUK!

Happy 100th birthday to Milorganite!

boneless skinless corn dogs might be more expensive, but I think they're a great time saver

I’m probably only going to say this sentence once in my lifetime: I think Texas might need more ivermectin.

Milwaukeeans, take note:

What’s new with the horrors? They still persist? Tell them I said what’s up

Research update: wow, this animal alphabet chart is a hot mess 😂😭 (Dean’s A1 Alphabet Chart, c.1920s)

The 3yo is obsessed with DVD and video game cases. He tells me all about the pictures he sees on them. He carries them around the house. He tells his sisters stories about them. This has been going on for three months.

wife just texted me that she made a new friend at the library's crochet meetup 🚨🚨 she lives just a few houses from us and her husband is also a stay-at-home dad of young children 🚨🚨 I might now be forced to be social on a regular basis.

If you want to know who took all your money, look at the people who have all the money.

Anyway, let this be a reminder to write out your will and get it witnessed and/or notarized. Especially if you have kids from a previous marriage. My stepdad 100% intended for my mom to be his sole heir and they both intended to split their combined estates equally among their five combined kids.

anxiety levels are through the roof because my mom called and didn't leave a message and I don't know if that means someone died or that she just wanted to chat like a totally normal person, I've texted her back to ask if she was calling to deliver dreadful news and she hasn't texted back yet

Whole administration still thinks it’s chasing the roadrunner and hasn’t looked down yet

went to Target today and noticed that there was no pride merch on display. i remember seeing a small display last year, which was notable because that was so close to the company making its anti-dei heel turn. if you think Target has seen the light on inclusivity, think again.

Post a poster you used to have on your wall

A certain Minnesota economist has told me this isn’t true and to shut the fuck up.

Not unrelated, not making every movie for a quarter of a billion dollars means you can afford to let a movie build up into a buzzy, word of mouth sleeper hit. And it used to be a standard operating procedure for Hollywood.

need a version of this for every game store and convention on the planet

took care of a bunch of weeds on my property today. perfect weather: dry and low-70s. focused on beggar's tick, stinging nettle, and a handful of raspberry canes that established themselves in otherwise kid-friendly parts of the yard.

serious? nah.. not really

In this media environment, anyone the Dems nominate will be branded as effeminate anyway. So own that shit. Same with policy. Example: they'll call you weak on the border no matter how harsh you are (hello Biden). So just be weak --aka not evil-- and give us humanitarian immigration rules. Own it.

Feeling this, too. When you wonder where all the money went, point to the billionaires who have all the money.

Slept in until 8:30 today and it was glorious. The 3yo stopped by every 30-40 minutes to make sure I knew he was awake but that was fine. He even accidentally kicked me in the head really hard and no big deal because I go to sleep in until eight-fucking-thirty!

Finally a petard to call my own. Somebody is about to get hoisted. Not me, obviously

Sagittarius: Be confident! There's nothing to be gained by doubting yourself. Let everyone see the real you. Which is what you must believe you are. Steady your hand and eliminate the duplicates. You don't need to be first. You need to be last.

"What the f--- is it?" "It's a wooden pickle. I made it for you." "Why's it brown? And sticky?" "That's not brown paint. It's blood from when I cut my hand making it for you!"

the president is telling obvious lies about unite the right, an event that was molly's origin story as a chronicler of the weird assholes of the white nationalist movement. she definitely brings the receipts in this series. highly recommended.

(first day as an astrologist) Your shit is all fucked up. The stars are mad at you.

Miller Park kinda sucks.

🎶 He's a creep He's a vegan He wants to mutilate children He thinks God's nonbinary He's eating eggs and cheese 🎶

When I was a kid we drank from the dang hose. There was only one hose and we all had to share it. And it was really more of a pulsating tube, or cannula, leading to a big orb of flesh that had fallen from the sky. And the milk was iridescent, and got us incredibly high. And we wore big Diesel jeans

there’s always been a lot of furry porn in the sandwich images feed but there seemed like a lot a lot today

this was written in earnest by a grown man with a professorship and a book deal

every time I see a picture of gorka, he looks like he is simultaneously completely befuddled and smugly condescending

Publisher: "Did you finish the illustrations of children playing games?" Engraver: "Sure did, boss. Made the kids naked and gave them weird adult faces, just like you wanted."

universally acceptable excuse

Yes, AC saves lives. And, even for weather that is not deadly, AC vastly improves lives. Comfort is a virtue. Needless suffering is immoral.

Now watching: The Island of Dr. Moreau (14yo me was very disappointed by this one but I want to watch the documentary about it so let's do this again.)

Chickenspheres AC: 8 Hit Dice: 1/2 #: 6d6 SV: Normal Man MV: Flying 30', walking 30' Morale: 7 Atacks: 1x peck 1d6 Treasure Type: Nil Alignment: Neutral Delicious. Mild-mannered. Found exclusively in dungeon tiers with farms tended by gnomish captives. Very fearful of kobolds.

Ok, having read a lot of the replies to the original post, my actual parenting hot take is that you should absolutely not follow the parenting advice you read on social media, including (especially?) this place. Bunch of fuckin weirdos (derogatory) around here.

Now watching: Clue

i want to be like Scrooge McDuck but it's a giant vault of sudafed that I dive into

The Coca-Cola Freestyle machine is an echo chamber. Good luck finding nuanced debates about hot button issues on that touch screen. It’s just soda names and flavored syrups

Today's kids' TV and books are orders of magnitude better than when you were a kid.

It's your responsibility to trust your child's doctors and teachers. These people are experts with massive amounts of experience with children compared to you. If you regularly find yourself arguing with these professionals about how to do their jobs, the problem is almost certainly with you.

Homeschooling is almost always done for the parent's "benefit," not the child's.

Ok, sure, your kid is autistic or ADHD or something else that makes socializing weird or difficult. I get it. But there's a good chance that your kid is also a HUGE asshole. The former doesn't excuse the latter.
