I'm moving house, so just avoiding packing by doing firmware updates on my kubernetes cluster.

always so funny to me when people are like “how am I supposed to explain Gay to my kids?” my kid asks me way harder shit all the time. “why did they build the road this way? why are some people bad?” I don’t know. please ask me about Gay

This amused me greatly 😂 especially the fox painting 😂

i love european olympics opening ceremonies. the second the ioc names a european host city the prime minister calls the culture minister into their office and says "find me your strangest homosexuals. give each of them a period of our great nation's history, a kilo of cocaine, and Ten Million Euros"

Let’s be honest: in many of these winter Olympic “sports”, the snow is doing most of the work. An unexpected thaw would expose these so-called athletes for the frauds they are

DOCTOR: I told him he needed to get out to a show, that was how he would cure his depression.

CHOTINER: So you learned this technique in school?

gas town is just a monoid in the category of endofunctors, what's the problem?

my neighbor told me deacons keep killing his polecats so I asked how many polecats he has and he said he just goes to the orchestrator and gets a new polecat afterwards so I said it sounds like he’s just feeding polecats to deacons and then his daughter started crying

Do kids ever grow out of the SHOUTING ALL THE TIME phase?

I re-watched A Few Good Men recently (partly because of recent events), and I'd completely forgotten it was a Sorkin script. What a team.

Y’all might not appreciate it, but it took him 87 moves and 14 hours to get here

THEM: We’re looking for a film that feels more… authored.

ME: it was authored. By me.

Tonight, I'm pairing my Miniature Heros with a 2015 Vin Santo del Chianti Rufina.

Like, the pilot commands the left engine, left flaps, left gear, left elevators, left ailerons etc, and the copilot commands the right eqivs.

Hilarity would surely ensue.
