A coworker was writing about a cache time-to-live and typed “ttyl” instead of “ttl” and it’s surprising how apt that is.

I finally broke down and bought a bottle of Noodler’s Baystate Blue. Wow. Y’all weren’t kidding. #fountainpens

Every time I drag a window too close to the top of the screen and it goes full-screen, I think, “Gee, that is a handy feature, but not this time."

Hey Apple! Did you really auto update my Apple TV just now in the middle of the Fever game? I mean, I wasn’t using it overnight. Seems like your timing is way off.

Remember when they sold those top-cut hot dog buns? Not enough of y’all bought them. I can’t find them anymore.

Wait, Why Is the Cybertruck Held Together With Glue? The loose stainless steel body panels that are falling of Cybertrucks on the road are held in place with glue.

I’ll save you the search since I just did it. Apparently, other auto manufacturers use glue, too. They just use the stuff that actually, y’know, sticks. futurism.com/cybertruck-h...

Why do I see so many ads for how much a walk-in shower should cost? And does asking guarantee that I’ll see more?

If anyone ever asks my advice for how to be a better member of one’s community, my answer is this: Plan your days so that you don’t float wolf bait in the portalets.

Canada has 10 provinces and 3 territories. If he’s going to keep babbling about annexing Canada, can he at least acknowledge Canada’s size and structure and say “the 51st through 60th (or 63rd) states”?

And just like that, a basketball league solves the parade-of-fouls-at-the-end-of-the-game problem. Great first night for #Unrivaled — Go Vinyl!

No Jaguars fan thinks Pederson is the only problem. The news today that Baalke is staying is discouraging. #jaguars

For the record: Jaylen Brown’s 3-pointer over a tush-clutching Siakam to send Game 1 of the ECF into overtime should have made the ESPN Top Ten Plays of 2024. #espn #topten #celtics

I’m giggling that someone took the time to develop this app, and marvel at the diversity of minds we share this planet with. May we all find joy, and afford others the same opportunity! github.com/Jaennaet/pIS...

Siri is not a common name. As this meeting proves, however, “series” is a common word.

I’m not always sure what IS breaking news, but your idea for a possible NBA trade definitely doesn’t qualify.

I added protein powder to my oatmeal this morning. Fiber plus protein? How can I miss? Well, I might try half as much powder tomorrow, but that will be its last chance.
