Heartache Kits

🤣🤣🤣🤣

I want to live to see its death. Like G+. That was satisfying.

Hahaha! Not yet. I'll announce soon.

I have to or I forget.

You just need the matching mountain shelves next to it. And push it closer to the window. No sense in having a dragon if you're not going to terrify/delight people walking their dog.

As a child, this was explicitly explained to me. "You're only ⅛ Irish, but when you hold a grudge, it must be 100%." Now I dodge people at the grocer, and I don't even remember why. It's nice. Gets me out quicker.

It's weird that Peter Thiel only had two life paths in front of him, the untaken one of being a nazi bedroom black metal musician writing incredibly mid songs with awkward Tolkien references among the racism and homophobia, and the realized other of somehow being even a bigger loser than that.

I wish people like Gov Ivey cared half as much about preventing child abuse as they do about looking signaling how tough they are.

I can't help but notice children can still marry in Alabama.

🤔 One of Dad's buddies passed away today; he leaves behind a wife who is already worried about where she's going to live. And idk... maybe I'm old-fashioned, but I don't think any widow or widower should have to move for financial reasons, especially when in mourning, unless they just want to go.. 😓

This screenplay is unmatched. #Casablanca #TCMParty

Taking a day off, even to spend time doing fun things with my hubbs, is so much harder when all the brainstorming I need to do right now is exactly what I love brainstorming about.

Let's be done with the "if there even *IS* an election" gotcha. We know. The thought has occurred to all of us. It's unhelpful. I'm going to continue behaving as if I'm not powerless—as if totalitarianism isn't inevitable. Because it's not, and I'm not.

I became Senior VP at a multi-million dollar company at age 26. My salary was $600k. This was in 2018. How did I do it? Blacked out lines CEO (my dad) promoted me to SVP. There are no gimmicks. There are no shortcuts.

This is blackout poetry to me

May it stabilize instead of shaking apart 🙏

The song though. Too perfect.

This is my favorite post this week.

My irises are already popping up. I'm truthfully a bit nervous that we haven't had enough snow this year, just mild days with a few chilly bursts.

Yes! The windows are open rn and I feel so spoiled.

Anyone else use their plants as depression monitors? I know I'm not doing the best when my peace lily starts to droop.

New SAVE Act Bills Would Still Block Millions of Americans From Voting The “show your papers” requirement is an attack on the freedom to vote.

The SAVE Act is an election power grab that could block millions of eligible voters.

Let’s be clear: we’ve already seen U.S. citizens detained by ICE despite having proof of citizenship. Now we’re supposed to trust this same government to police paperwork at the ballot box? tinyurl.com/yhwj7b77

I'm teaching a grad level proposal writing class. Had planned to go in depth about how funding agencies are organized, how panels work, etc. Now it feels like I'll be saying a lot of "This is how it was, I'm not sure how it'll work going forward."

Photo of a vintage science fiction book. The illustrated cover depicts a rocket taking off next to a man standing with his arms folded on top of a collage of images including a nude woman with her eyes closed and the head of an old man who appears sorrowful. Text and title read: SO I HAD MY PENIS Surgically Removed and Launched into Space Everyone is really disappointed BY SIMON HASNO

The waiter: And what would you like today young man?

My two year old:

AI is not inevitable. If we had sane people in government that were not in thrall to billionaire tech CEOs, LLMs could be regulated, forced to obey existing copyright laws, and banned from places where their use is inappropriate, such as college classes. This should be a moderate position.

Today I learned that titting about is an option.

Kelsey Grammer. Dear reader. Thank you for taking the time to check out this alt text! As you may or may not know, this is a ridiculous joke. I know full well who the person is in the photo, and that I've added the bio of a different person entirely. That's the joke. It's a gag about people having a similar name, which I can mix up in a comedic way. Also, I was dropped on the head as a baby. Several times.

MC Hammer, is an American rapper, dancer, record producer, and actor. He was popular in the late 1980s and early 1990s for his hit songs like "U Can't Touch This", and "2 Legit 2 Quit". Hammer was known for his flashy dance moves, extravagant choreography, and his signature Hammer pants

We need immigrants so much. Idk how anyone wouldn't love the fact that other cultures exist and they're willing to bring them here to share with us. We have no culture without them.

Sometimes there's a copyright conflict, and the platform archives it until it's resolved.

"why don't you just use AI to do that?"

idk, man, for the same reason I wouldn't drive my car one block to pick up the mail?

In the foreground and in focus, a retro TV shaped needleminder holds a solitary needle. It is attached to green fabric in an embroidery hoop. In the background, you can see the fabric is an embroidery work in progress of a skeleton, mushrooms, moss, and leaves. The skeleton is reaching toward a piece of opalite.

I highly recommend buying a tiny treat from an independent seller. Dopamine for days!
