Seen ad for #Amazon Prime photo service a few times. The family featured is #Hispanic - & I’m betting they’ve already exploited users to feed intel to ICE.

Avoid this like the plague.

If I may dril for a moment, you absolutely do not have to give Trump “credit” for anything, ever. The saying does not go “even a broken clock hires its own gestapo”

Prime example of white privilege in plain sight.

Black kids get called adults to justify blame, while white adults get called “kids” to excuse their hate. They’re not boys and girls, they’re grown-ass men and women, and the receipts are in writing.

It's been "About 30 minutes remaining" for over a half hour now.

When will Apple get better at this shit? (Apple is not unique in this regard.)

Progress bar on MacOS Software Update.

Above the bar it says "Preparing updates..."
The bar is maybe 2/3 filled left to right.
In lighter text below the bar, it says "About 30 minutes remaining".

...buying the generic? Often the generics are made by the same plant. Not so with #EssentialEveryday Corned Beef Hash. The non-potato stuff doesn't have the consistency of finely chopped beef. It's liquefied beef goo. And the aftertaste forces me to make an extra coffee. So all in, more expensive.

Income reduced as wife retired & vulture capitalists arbitrarily reduced my hours, so I'm looking for ways to save money. I've always liked #CornedBeefHash fried crispy, with over easy eggs, &/or ketchup. A can makes me 2 meals, under $3 per, all in. Good deal. But can I get it even cheaper by...

Oatmeal hits the nail right on the head.

In my experience, the people who are excited about AI art also happen to be some of the most talentless fucking people I've ever met.

Proverbs 22:6 is true when talking about truth. Sadly, it is also true when talking about racism, classism, fascism, etc. Train them as children to be wrong-headed in any way, and they'll tend to still think that way when they're old.

Give them access to un-gate-kept other stupidity and […]

The arguments made here about access to information have some merit. But there’s more to it. It’s also (much more, I believe) the democratization of publishing. It used to be hard to get your ideas out there because there were gatekeepers who would reject the stupid, the crazy, & the […]

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio insisted “no one has died” as a result of U.S. foreign aid cuts. In Myanmar, the grieving father of a 2-year-old boy who died after their food rations were cut calls such claims a lie.

I don't understand why I see things so differently. I see a health insurance industry that thinks it's entitled to charge people 1/3rd of their income for healthcare. That industry shouldn't be "fixed." It should be burned to the ground and its ashes pissed on.

They added a 2nd woman to the morning show that had been 1 woman for most of the morning a good long while.

Talk, talk, giggle, talk, talk, maybe play a song or two, then chat a shitton more.

Now, during the Pledge Drive, they're talking a LITTLE more than before.

I don't know how the REST of the various (and many) local public radio stations have behaved between when they learned that the #PBS #NPR money was drying up, & this fall's #PledgeDrive ...but I can tell you of at least one #MinnesotaPublicRadio station that WHIFFED on it.
