This has been a fucking great weekend in that I actually got a bunch of stuff done on TOP of my normal allotment of slothful recreation

I have a gym membership the way some people have a religion. I believe in it. I just don’t go.

Either that or we reach “if everything is an AI tell then nothing is”

I’m a woman on antidepressants for whom they worked. I’m also pretty informed about medications. Are SSRIs perfect? No - no drug is. Do they work for every patient? No - nothing in mental health does. But they DO have a place in therapy and RFK’s opinions should NOT drive changes to that.

Behold this thread and the sheer number of bangers it will get stuck in your head

I’ve been pretty mum about our planned move so I don’t jinx it, but I just got a text from my husband who *timed* how long it takes to walk to specific points of interest to compare to our current location. (This level of detailed analysis is why we’re married)

This is what librarianship has taught for years....and as we have underfunded/defunded and closed libraries and (Idaho) refuse to have certified librarians at elementary level, we get generations of information illiterate. Libraries are more than just books, librarians do more then sling books.

Props to this writer for seamlessly slipping this in

Joe Rogan texted the president and the president immediately did this?! Somebody get me this number and we’ll crowdsource some health care reform ideas.

I didn’t make this as a coffee table cushion, but it doubles as one…

Probably because everyone shared the videos so many times during the campaign 🤣

Use bad photoshop like the ancestors did

I’ve read all the comments in multiple threads about this and NO ONE seems to be able to identify the gray thing on the tray with the naked hamburger patty and carrots

Text me when this place is back up, my screen time is out of control so I gotta stop trying to load posts

Giving highly professional medical advice this morning.

Let’s do it.

No. 19 years a pharmacist, heading for my 15th wedding anniversary, about to be a homeowner for the second time… and I feel like someone let my immature ass get in way over my head 🤪

If Diet Coke kills cancer why is anybody buying fenbendazole/ivermectin cocktails online?

Tell me that owning a seam ripper doesn’t mean I can buy a secondhand dress with the intention of taking the shoulder ruffles off

Here is an easy solution: Food stains are humiliating, as they suggest you're a little baby who can't feed themselves. Oil stains, such as those you'd get from working on your car, suggest you're tough, independent, and skilled. Thus, simply cover your food stains with used motor oil.

Hate to blow up this guy’s gift link but you can see the normalization/defense of ICE through the whole thing 😬 Also if I worked under these circumstances I’d have a big-ass laminated sign that said PEEING, BACK IN 5 to put on my desk every time I stepped away

Maria Bartiromo’s glasses are giving “old lady teacher in the 80s” to the point I get distracted by them every time I see her

I wish I had never learned the phrase “sit down air” because now that we have legit spring weather, I won’t be able to think about anything but whether mine is detectable for several months

Even using web-only Google, the sites it pull up as results are AI slop themselves frequently enough to render search almost unusable.

If you see a doctor with an accent and think getting rid of that doctor will somehow bring you one without an accent, you are mistaken. The real choice is often a doctor with an accent or no doctor at all. Choose.

Part of wanting to buy a home is looking at your retirement account balances for the first time since December 2024

the real issue with America is the complete collapse of societal bonds, entire generations didnt need to have some weirdo stranger tell them stupid lies and ask for money, they had uncles and and cousins to fill those roles respectively

I can’t figure out why looking at homes makes me super anxious when I’m 100% in favor of and happy with this plan?

The cartoonists are absolutely nailing this era in a way the rest of the newspaper isn’t

I’ve crocheted the whole back panel of a sweater using double crochet instead of half double crochet stitches. Fuck it, looks fine, gonna finish it that way… but now I know why I seem to be using yarn faster than expected 🤣

That’s right, this WASN’T always a thing, was it? (Or were the Bushes/Clinton doing this when I wasn’t really paying attention?)

Dang, Leo.

It is peak “little dogs in lightweight jackets” weather.

My fave is when they have both the 7 and the N interrupted for construction. It’s the “you chose to live in Queens, now stay there” combo from where I live.

Tell me why my brain has decided to play *Raffi* this morning.

You have to believe it’s a lock for Hunter, right? Assuming they get equal access to PEDs and/or stimulants?

Is this why elderly married couples start looking kind of alike?

“You’re not supposed to use your phone while driving.” “Got it. Let’s install large tablet touchscreens in almost every single new car.”

It’s chilly outside and it’s cold in my office, meaning the only time my toes are not uncomfortably cold is when I’m in bed at night. Solid argument for just “taking to my bed” indefinitely.

Going to work like the serious professional adult I am, with “Back That Azz Up” stuck in my head…

Hahahahah THIS is how they’re going to track me down and send me to the Lexapro detox farm 🤣 (I’m not even a fed! I’m a dependent!)

every single day in the United States now has that vibe of when you're in a corporate job and first thing in the morning they announce an all-hands meeting for the end of the day and you just get to dread whatever that might mean all day

We may need to hate-listen to be prepared for what patients and/or acquaintances are going to come at us with…

Absolutely wild that saying “we made it with AI!” confers unquestioning acceptance…

I know I should be panicking but I’m not. I’m not sure if it’s resignation, dissociation, or plain ignorance, but… if this is it, we had a good run?

I see it’s snowing in Boston and I’d like to declare that absolute BS on behalf of all my New England friends

Say you’re a US citizen with international travel planned… can you fly *out* of these airports and you just have to MacGyver a ticket back to somewhere like New Haven? Or can you not get out either?

I found this while moving stuff around on my desk. I have no idea when it’s from or what I meant by it 🤣

Canadians are boycotting American goods and buying Canadian. Like this potato.
