after buying a really nice keyboard for home, now it makes my work keyboard feel like a total piece of shit that I hate

cherishing every time the barber says "your hair is so thick" more and more deeply as I get older

thank you, Tina. great to hear from a true communist

we get it, you're a homophobe who will never vote for Buttigieg because he's too fruity

let me relax I will comment later

we used to have boats, big beautiful boaters for trump, but they're all gone, because of woke

stock photo: wiener dog wearing a scarf and riding a scooter. annoying.

Oops! You just encountered Fargond dog!

they're rationing the remaining white house stash of Biden go juice because they don't know how to make any more

gathered up all my tuba mouthpieces to give them a good gentle ultrasound cleaning but I can't find the power cord for my ultrasound cleaner

what does he know

my current conspiracy theory is that some part of Bluesky PBC's funding is coming from investors who are cross about all the AI skepticism on here and they have hinted that it's time to crack down

these boys are hyperventilating

my office’s landlord recently renovated our unit’s bathroom and now it’s the nicest room at work, it’s got plants and gentle lighting and nice wooden fixtures and art on the walls, and I kind of wish I could just like put a couch here and hang out

the Windows calculator with the factorial button messily circled

wtf is this bullshit on my calculator... why does microsoft think my numbers gotta be excited???

an early-90s office with a man using CAD software on his desktop computer, next to an HP wide-format plotter printing a building elevation

it's all just the world viewed through a phone camera in portrait mode, trump and the white house can only conceive of the world in these thin little slices

even then I can't see rightsholders wanting this to be public-facing at all, who in their right mind is going to want everybody on the internet to be able to access the machine that makes off-model clips of your most valuable IP smoking crack and farting on each other

I remember a lot of criticism of how ActivityPub couldn't completely, permanently ban an individual because they could always just find a new server to move to, and I guess this is what happens when your system "fixes" that

you can just say "fascism", you don't have to be cute about it

Jordan Peterson has somehow come down with a crippling combination of consumption, Dutch elm disease, "wandering scrotum" and zebra mussels. He is being shipped via barge to a "health palace" in Macedonia where he will be submerged in Windex

getting takeout from restaurants got really expensive so I stopped doing that, but now groceries have also gotten really expensive so now I've started eating takeout again

really can't rule out that they wouldn't have had a similar meltdown over repeated challenges to their own minuscule amount of power, running internet websites just does that to people
