I have two.

There is no such thing as toxic masculinity or toxic femininity. There is only toxic individualism.

Sometimes, you shouldn’t be yourself. The person you are might be awful. Bullying and societal pressure correcting you to a norm can be a good thing.

I always weigh my pasta. A really large serving of pasta is ~4oz.

There’s no way I believe that Deepseek was made for the $5m figure I’ve seen floating around.

But that doesn’t matter. If it cost $15m, $50m, $500m, or even more than that, it’s probably worth it to take a dump in Sam Altman’s morning coffee.

Russia is like a bank robber with a bazooka to your head. Yeah, their home life is shit, but they’re still holding you hostage, and they have a lot less to lose than you do.

AT-ST! AT-ST!

He’s with his wife.

Happy for him. Sad for us.

They don’t care about winning, because it changes nothing for them. If they win, they keep taking kickbacks and bribes. If they lose, they keep taking kickbacks and bribes.

If they win, they wring their hands about how they can’t do what they want, so it’s not even worth trying. If they lose, they wring their hands about things they can’t stop, so it’s not even worth trying.

It’s win-win for them. It’s lose-lose for us.

Hey, hey. Rude of you to call the guy who was supposed to save us from another 4 years of Trump but then delivered it anyways a failure. All he did was tread water for 4 years and then hang on to power way too long, simultaneously tanking his own campaign, and making it much more difficult for someone to follow him.

Sort of. They’re just on the other side of a waist high divider. They aren’t cooking for show, but you can see what they’re doing.

Same. Cooking 4 pounds of bacon at once is wild.

I don’t understand why people shit on Waffle House.

Where else can you go where someone will cook real eggs right in front of you, and cook them correctly?

Fried over easy, perfect every time.

I have this drawer.

It’s not a junk drawer.

It’s an irregular kitchen items drawer.

It’s just the cost of being someone who actually uses their kitchen. We have the garlic press, scissors, pizza cutter, bench scrapers, microplaners, thermometers, etc… in there. All useful things that fit poorly with other things, so they get a drawer all to themselves.

The junk drawer with batteries and twist ties is another drawer.

No, it’s not.

It’s an acknowledgement that there’s a massive problem.

These companies are literally willing to bankrupt you to death. Their behavior is inexcusable. They profiteer off of human suffering.

We live in a country founded by people who were unhappy with the status quo and were willing to pick up a gun to change things. We shouldn’t act surprised that it still happens. I don’t think we should celebrate it, because it’s sad that this is happening in the first place, that someone feels they need to do this. This problem is solvable, and it can be solved civilly, or it will be solved uncivilly.

They’re just anxious to get back to the real problem, domesticated squirrels.

Wonder if he was doing something genuinely good with his day or if he was on his way to a presentation with investors where they can gameplan new ways to capitalize on human suffering.

Shame, we’ll never know.

This is how I feel as well.

The Democratic party has stood by at best and enabled at most. Are they better than Republicans? Yes, in that they don’t actively do some things they allow Republicans to do.

A friend of mine described it as a dad (Republicans) molesting his kids. Mom (Democrats) know it’s happening, but can’t bring herself to do anything about it. Is mom better than dad? Technically yes?

Anyone advocating for working inside the system to change the system is hoping the person enabling your absuser finds a conscience. It won’t happen.

Go no contact. Vote third party. Vote independent.

Unfortunately for veterans, they aren’t risking their lives for their country. They’re risking their lives for the special interests of corporate oligarchs who couldn’t care less about them.

I ran Fedora on my Framework when I first got it, a couple years ago, but the battery life and sleep behavior was just awful. Love Linux on desktop, hate it on a laptop. Should I revisit?

I see lots of people talking about how bad this is, but I haven’t seen anyone talk about it in light of Trump’s utter mishandling of Hurricane Maria.

It’s been 7 years but it’s absolutely salt in the wound.

It’s sad how much this will hurt good people who work for the Washington Post and how little this will affect Bezos.
