If I had a nickel for every time Franz Ferdinand was involved in the precursor events of a world war, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird it happened twice

Such grace

Also Big Tech: Never mind testing, what if we just ship and don't fix errors until customers complain? (All while replacing customer service reps with bots)

Funny how none of these self-proclaimed health champions seem to advocate for universal socialised healthcare

productiviteit zit niet alleen in knieën en ruggen: het aantal mensen met parkinson is in tien jaar met 30% toegenomen; een derde van hen is onder de 65. ook 10% van de mensen met dementie – in 2040 de voornaamste doodsoorzaak – is jonger dan 65 fd.nl/opinie/15879... | #aow

Petition for fashion brands to start making women's tops long enough again.

All I can think about is Jeff Bezos saying that he slashed jobs at the Washington Post — including those of foreign correspondents in the Middle East — based on "the data," and a few weeks later a whole war breaks out in the Middle East that these laid off folks would have covered as true experts.
