I find it hilarious that the people who want me to feel bad about living on stolen land are the same ones who claim Israel didn't exist until 1948.

The Gandalf vs. Dumbledore discussion gets funnier the more you think about it. Compared to Dumbledore, Gandalf seems to waste so much time simply because he has so much of it to work with.

One of the worm gears in our Kitchen Aid mixer failed four days before Christmas Eve. The hits just keep coming 🤣

The power has been out for eight and a half hours now. God I wish I could afford a generator.

I have a work call every day at 3:30 PM. Every day. And every day, at exactly 3:15 PM, my kids get into screaming/shouting match that ends promptly when my call does. It’s truly amazing. It’s like they know, and they want everyone I work with to assume we’re murdering them.

These are all just from the past few hours. I need a name for this phenomenon. It's the Facebookification of any social media space. Make it stop.

Working for the government is funny because you get to witness things like being informed that a server wont get patching because the MW wasn't requested properly. Can we do it? Yep. Should we? Of course. Will we? Nope. Your tax dollars at work.

I open up Twitter and I see an endless supply of this. Endless. I'm not even following the vast majority of these accounts.

Twitter has become Facebook. Post after post of questions designed to do nothing but farm engagement. It's really a shame.

I’m ready for the public introduction of “dumb” appliances charged at significantly higher prices than “smart” ones. It’ll be incredible to witness.

every god-fearing generation of men maintain and uphold The Wire Box, a strategic reserve of technical entropy from which the anonymous will rise up and become the prophesied Chosen Wire in Our Time of Need.

Every Epstein info dump is another reminder of just how deep the rabbit hole goes and how little anyone has paid for it.

Hey @cheerios, we found 13 boxes of the now-discontinued Chocolate & Peanut Butter Cheerios months ago and my kids have been treating the dwindling stock like junkies to drugs. Why in the world did you have stop making these?

I have a persistent crackling in my right ear. It’s been there for a few days now. It comes and goes. No noticeable change in hearing from the ear. Really strange.

I've had this unofficial logical 'law' that's been in my head for almost a decade now: "The more words used to describe a rule, the less broadly that rule applies." This might seem obvious, but it might surpise you how often people don't make the connection.

as a reminder: AI cannot generate knowledge. It cannot create knowledge. It cannot find new information. It can only mix information that has already been found and written and input into computers by humans.
CEO of Nvidia, $NVDA: “In the future… maybe two or three years, 90% of the world’s knowledge will likely be generated by AI.”

You can tell who's been on the internet longest, because the people who have been browsing since the AOL days are fine, but everyone else is having a mental breakdown since they haven't been acclimated to the digital horrors. It's like seeing a Lovecraft story unfold in real time
