Are there people who don't?!? I work from home, rarely leave the house and still put on deodorant every day.

Feels ridiculous that fairly legitimate news and tech sites keep advertising for Tesla by calling them "Robotaxis" when every single one of them has a human driver? How have they fooled everyone into increasing their valuation with a very standard taxi/ride hailing play?

Updated screenshot of the same NYT article showing that they have added another sentence stating that 420 is sometimes used as code for marijuana use. They did not backtrack on their original conclusion that the $4.20 price was a reference to the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy book.

I had to look it up because I couldn't believe this. Looks like they made a small update, but still wildly out of touch.

One of the reasons I think β€œdefund the police” is a great slogan is that you get to repeatedly tell people that studies show that police don’t actually solve murders, and in fact one-third of stranger-murders are committed by police.

We must all stand as a united front against the kidnapping and illegal detention of Kilmar Abrego Garcia in El Salvador.

Screen grab of Twitter post my pundit Matt Yglesias saying that California governor Newsom is not only correct on merit to oppose trans athletes, but that it's bizarre to see the Democratic party line up on an issue that is opposed 70-30.

Interracial marriage did not cross 50% approval in the US until 1996, when I was 30 years old. Good political messaging drives opinion, it doesn't follow it.

So much this! I have a family so would like more rooms, but absolutely hate living in a house. I like living in an apartment style building. I think it feels safer and I prefer to live in denser, more walkable neighborhoods.

Was Ja's silkier? Sure, but at 25 years old with no one touching him or really even defending.

LeBron's was at 40 years old with a big man bumping him.

I know it looks like Stella's really dealing with some shit in this photo but it's only because she got a bath this morning after rolling herself in mud and goose poop.

Thought you posted a picture of my cat, Kevin, for a second.

I bought a Kia Sportage hybrid a couple years ago and I've been really happy with the car, but the buying experience was so bad that I didn't even go back to that dealership for my 3 free oil changes.

Code showing an example of monkey patching console.log for a better logging experience.

```
import util from 'util'

const originalConsoleLog = console.log

function customLog(...args) {
  const modifiedArgs = args.map((arg) => {
    if (typeof arg === 'object') {
      // Use util.inspect to stringify the object
      // The options can be adjusted as needed
      return util.inspect(arg, { showHidden: false, depth: null, colors: true })
    }
    return arg
  })
  originalConsoleLog.apply(console, modifiedArgs)
}

// Monkey patch console.log
console.log = customLog
```

Ok, I don't know how I never thought of this before, but monkey patching console.log makes quick console log debugging so much nicer 😍

Finally got a Bluesky invite! As Twitter continues it's downward spiral, it's nice to see some faces over here that I've missed :)
