But also a taco

the two types of vehicle are cars and trucks, with every vehicle being a subclass of one of those two. a jeep is a truck. a motorcycle is obviously a car. a boat is a truck. an airplane is a car and a helicopter is a truck. trucks are cars, interestingly enough, and cars are a specific type of chair

Sam had a very big day yesterday and needs coffee snuggle time this morning. 🥺🥺🥺

There is an endearing 3rd-space aspect to non-pro curling, curling rinks are giant heated spaces where you can gather with friends cheaply for long periods of time in winter.
Beers with friends? Fun.
Throwing rocks at stuff? Fun.

A title image reads “So Youve Just Been Laid Off a post-corporate message from @katewelchhhh”

“One year ago, I was laid off from my corporate gaming job. For the first time in my 15-year career, I was unemployed without a next secure, salaried job on the horizon. I am either exceptionally lucky or talented, but it doesn't matter which it is - both no longer seem applicable.”

I just saw this instagram post from the incredibly talented and breathtakingly hilarious Kate Welch, who was laid off around a year ago, and I wanted to share it here. It’s an important message, and you deserve to read it:

Because you let them.

About people you didn't care about.

Happy Caturday.

Paid butpoorlydrawn $5 to draw a picture of Sam, poorly. Was not disappointed 😂

Thinking about all the years of my life wasted, just not knowing about chili crisp, and it infuriates me

This dude’s career is being a professional agitator. He’s making money off this, the paid protestors are the Nazis.
His entire public profile is “I fa’d, then I fo’d, then I had hurt feelings, and then I cried on social media and begged for money”.

I feel like it maybe comes from an unsureness that all the choices that add to their life were the right ones.
Like maybe they wish they read 100s of books, or they feel like they “should”, and so they reassure themselves it’s ok they don’t by making it seem absurd or unachievable that you do.

My favourite thing about those book apps, aside from a convenient place to remind myself of books I want to read, is the end of year graphic where I am reminded of all the amazing books I had the pleasure of spending time with 🥰

And one day the girl with the books became the woman writing them.

So tuckered from a busy couple weeks!

My brother got my dog Christmas presents and is confused but intrigued 😂 does not understand the cookie is for eating but does like carrying it around like some kind of sacred treasure

Based on the marked drop in quality with nearly every app and website I regularly use … I’d say definitely they’ve decided they’re ok with the drop in quality. I can only assume they have compared the bottom line and realized the savings in labour outweigh any potential loss of business.
