Me every time the creator of an hours long YouTube video suggests breaking up your watch over multiple sessions.

I hate writing in the sense that writing is agonizing, but it's agonizing the way getting a really good massage is. It hurts but it's unclenching some shit that's been tensed up. If it doesn't get done I am going to explode, and trying to make a robot get the massage for me would be fucking stupid.

im not a linux evangelist but people post on here weekly like "i miss when computers were more like the early 2000s and had basic software and i didn't have to pay attention to all the flashiness and complexity and updates" girl what you desire is running stable debian on a spare thinkpad

This is blackout poetry to me

the actual Republican parents who support the politicians pushing for this think the effort and money they spent parenting are wasted if their kids turn out different from them.

You eliminate that possibility by eliminating the public existence of other kinds of people.

DOCTOR: I told him he needed to get out to a show, that was how he would cure his depression.

CHOTINER: So you learned this technique in school?

DR: No, not— listen it was good advice. Pagliacci was in town.

C: Right. Is it standard to give advice before learning a patient’s name?

DR: Now look

I let ChatGPT analyze a decade of my health data. Then I called my doctor. I gave the new ChatGPT Health access to 29 million steps and 6 million heartbeat measurements. It drew questionable conclusions that changed each time I asked.

Oh. No. You don't get to say that bullshit about negative money.

The image is a six panel black and white comic. Panel 1- A therapist sits on a chair, legs crossed. "We're going to try something for your anxiety today. I want you to imagine some place that would bring you a sense of peace." Panel 2- The person sitting across from them on the couch repeats back, "Some place that brings me peace?" Panel 3- They put their hand on their chin and then think, "Some place that brings me peace..." Panel 4- Eyes now closed, their thoughts fade out "Some place that brings me-" Panel 5- The person is now laying on what looks like freshly cut grass. Panel 6- It zooms out to reveal them laying in the old Windows xp default wallpaper, a green field with blue sky and clouds, a picture refereed to as 'Bliss'
