My first apartment in 1994 was $350/month. Adjusting for inflation, that apartment should now rent for $744/month.

It actually rents for $1500. Greed and inflation are hurting the kids, not their Starbucks lattes.

I got diagnosed with ADHD at 32. I didn't seek it out until my therapist suggested it, but I was really struggling at the time and I didn't know why. Knowing has made me realize I'm not broken, helped me find coping strategies, and given me the language to ask for accommodations I need.

Defensive typing: a sport in which you attempt to avoid typos while your keyboard and fingers are assaulted by one or more cats. It's extra fun if you write code for a living. 😜

It still has a stigma on it in academia. I have an English degree and genre fiction was very much looked down upon. One professor was a T.S. Eliot scholar who had no idea who Lovecraft was, even though the two were contemporaries and Lovecraft wrote a scathing parody of The Waste Land.

Her job is to repeat Trump's lies. I'm sure she knows she's lying and doesn't care.

It's surreal that the far right was so vehemently anti-EV until an EV CEO did a Nazi salute.

It's fun so far! Definitely worth the effort of finding a friend who'll play with you. Or you could try it on ultra hard mode and play with a controller in each hand.

When there's a recession anyway and we are that much closer to fascism, we'll remember what a liar and a coward you were.

If you need a key for the restroom, that means only one person is using it at a time. There is literally no reason for a single stall restroom with a lock on the door to be gendered. It's just an excuse to be transphobic and degrade women.

This is disappointing for sure, but the silver lining is that the old English for buttocks was "ears."

Political cartoon. Rep Al Green, D-Texas standing up and pointing his cane yelling "HE DOES NOT HAVE A MANDATE TO CUT MEDICAID!"

In the lower corner are two people hiding behind round signs. One reads "Civility!" and the other says "Did he not get the sign memo?"
