imagine being accidentally added to a second, slightly smaller group chat where they're talking about how to handle this scandal

A Southwest Airlines plane was forced to abort its landing this morning after a private jet taxied in front of it across the runway at Midway Airport in Chicago.

Whatever that guy from The Real World is doing with the FAA has gotta stop.

So many guns in the United States, and yet the 2nd Amendment did absolutely nothing to stop a coup by hostile foreign powers.

the app said there was a printer error. but there wasn’t one. no error at all, turns out.

it isn’t the fault of the tech person (or bot) I’ve been talking to. no need being mad at them. rather, some bean counter figured this strategy would be a good way to get more of my beans.

it wasn’t a failure of equipment or some errant connectivity issue. hp turned it off. it’s working just as they intended.

ah! mystery solved. we do nearly no printing. i got tired of throwing money at their printing supply subscription service. so i canceled a few months ago, and hp turned off the perfectly good cartridges in my printer. it didn’t break. hp turned it off and has really irritated me over $7/month.

fear not, for i’m chatting with hp support in the hopes they can find out why the printer is unwilling to perform the function for which it is named.

well NO SHIT, hp app. that’s why I’m here - for you to tell me what the error is. you can talk to the printer. I can’t. point your 1s and Os toward the printer and find out wtf is wrong.

my hp printer shows an error of some kind. so i open the app that communicates with the printer to find out what’s going on. the hp app tells me the printer has an error and i should check the printer.

We all lose hope that suffering in our lives & the world will ever end. I want to share w/you my faith & understanding that suffering can be transformed & redeemed. There's no such thing as a totally hopeless case. God is an expert dealing w/chaos...w/the worst that we can imagine.

Feels like something they’d paint on the side of the barn in Animal Farm.

Our nation's federal employees are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet.

They make sure we have clean water.

They protect us from financial fraud.

They provide healthcare to our communities.

They make our government actually work for people.

Do not forget this.

Elon Musk and Donald Trump are now ordering the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to stop protecting consumers from unfair fees, fraud, and scams.

They have cut off funding to the agency.

This was my brother who had DS & Alzheimers. Music brought him so much joy throughout life, but it really helped keep him happy during Alzheimers. He benefitted from DEI & an education-he worked in a salon, washing towels, making coffee & sweeping hair & the customers loved him. Best person I knew!
