When the world is scary, I take a lot of comfort from living in a neighborhood of people who I like and trust. It’s rare to know your neighbors nowadays, and I think that’s a shame. I really like all of mine. I like that I can walk the dogs around the neighborhood and stop to chat with everyone.

The Important Difference Between SNAP And Food Stamps One term is the program’s name, the other is outdated, misleading and loaded with baggage.

”SNAP.” The program is called SNAP, and has been called SNAP since 2008.

“Food stamps” is significantly less popular than “SNAP”

I appreciate you sharing this. My family benefited from SNAP when I was a teenager, but I think I’ve called it “food stamps” as recently as last week. I didn’t realize there was such a big difference in perception between the terms, and this helps me see how I can personally do better.

You can tell that it’s a Rufous because of the way it is

It's Science.

A rando bigot with a red tie fearmongers to the tune of “The Gay Agenda is Murder” However, “The Murder:” is just a murder of queer crows gathered on a branch, cuddling as they hold up a rainbow banner which reads “Free Healthcare and Body Autonomy and little treats FoR ALL.” One crow asks if there are any snacks.

From the Larchives: The Rocky Horus Picture Scroll. One of my favorite works. I had the assistance of an Egyptology PhD student to translate the Time Warp phonetically. Enjoy :)

I am trying to play with my dogs, but they only want to snuggle. Then when I want to relax, it will certainly be playtime

I never got to drive it, but boy did I want to. You can put all sorts of modules on the back of it, like a crane or a firefighting rig. I think they mostly had it because it was fun, and sometimes it was useful. I would buy one for myself if I could.

The place I did technical writing for a bit had a Unimog as the company car 😂

You just advanced one of Trump’s nominees, during a shutdown. You’re a two faced liar.

Another morning, another “what the fuck is wrong with you” message sent to my elected representatives. Why is @adamschiff.com advancing Trump nominees during a shutdown? Who do you represent, again? I thought it was me, but clearly not!

Us, in a science officer’s uniform from the “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds” era, as per our assignment onboard of the USS Sequoia [NCC-1103]. It’s a sunny day at the Presidio of San Francisco, meaning we need to have our sunglasses on. The crew had gathered to watch the San Francisco Fleet Week Air Show and nerd out as usual both amongst ourselves and curious passersby!

We’re one of the cool kids now and have joined as a science officer aboard the crew of NCC-1103, the @usssequoia.bsky.social! Looking forward to many more events with The Fleet in the future!

(Apologies to @caseyexplosion.bsky.social whose joke I have shamelessly stolen to riff on)

A still from Lupin III, with Goemon, Fujiko (as a blonde!), Lupin (red jacket), and Jigen

So you’re telling me that four experienced thieves stole a bunch of priceless jewels from the Louve, in broad daylight? I think I know who we’re dealing with here.

I just looked and actually groaned out loud.

We’re a Hamilton household and not super fond of Verstappen

I hadn’t decided to transition at the time, and now my wife and I both have. I don’t think I would mind if most people had zero opinion about trans people and just let us live our lives, imho.

I think all the time about the conversation we had during the GOH dinner at FC ages ago. It was about how before trans issues were in the public consciousness, no one would even think to guess at a person’s gender. You could just exist as yourself. But now, people look closer and try to guess.

The Pokemon Z-A Royale logo, which features a blue lumiose tower with a pink pentagon around it and a pink pokeball atop the spire

The blue and pink version of Daft Punk’s Alive 2007 logo, featuring a blue scaffolding over a pink grid field. At the center is a white pyramid, surrounded by pink

I’m not the only one who thinks this is an intentional reference or homage, right? Lumiose City is Pokemon Paris, and Daft Punk are Very French. #legendsZA #PokemonLegendsZA

It’s genuinely one of my favorite things about IBO. Like, let’s just subvert that love triangle trope real fast.

If you're struggling to decide what to include or what to leave out, think about how you might describe this to someone you know.

Imagine you and a friend are driving by, and they have to keep their eyes on the road. How would you describe the image to them in a meaningful but succinct way?

A lot of big breaking news stories involve visuals, such as timelines of events, photos, memes, and screen shots. All of those images need alt text. Without alt text, screen reader users are left out.

Today, the big event that is image-heavy and all over social media is the #NoKings protests.

Asked a tall guy at the grocery store to help me get something from a high shelf. Told him to find me if he couldn’t reach something inside a tunnel or under a car, and I’ll repay the favor.

Gadget won’t do any of her outdoors business when it’s raining, unless she wears her boots. If she has her boots, she will splash in puddles and walk on wet grass. Without? No way.
