The physical willpower it took for me to not hug this shambling mound..

A photo of a modern art sculpture that looks like a shambling mound that wants to hug you... Maybe absorb you . Who knows.

It's a woody brown colour.

It'd be great if he was pro Ireland having a future.. we'll pay for climate change regardless - it's cheaper to do it now!

Ireland's Taoiseach (prime minister), has just shockingly said: “I don’t think we can mitigate for climate change" but it somehow didn't even make the headline: www.independent.ie/business/tec... @michaelemann.bsky.social

Taoiseach says some climate projects will not be fulfilled because they risk polarising society

Taoiseach Micheál Martin has rowed back on climate change commitments, saying Ireland may not be able fulfil all current initiatives due to the polarising effect it could have on society.

One of the nice things about streamers is you get to enjoy the wit and humor of people you’re pretty sure you couldn’t fucking stand being in the same room with for five minutes

I guess I haven't clearly articulated this in writing, but friends do not let friends without substantive IT work experience and/or a credible IT degree take cybersecurity career bootcamps in 2025.

They are up to no good. Shenanigans. Malfeasance. They are not a safe way to get a job.

You’ll now be able to get an updated coronavirus shot in every state without a prescription, according to the American Pharmacists Association.

CVS and Walgreens have stated you won’t need to attest to any underlying conditions and the questions will be removed from their online booking system.

I am glad that more people appreciate the moon (but not as much as a spoon).

On the sixth day of Halloween we honor Gremlins and Critters and such. This year in keeping with our emphasis on often overlooked Halloweenery, I’d like to recall those little vampire mutants from the old Quiznos ads.

Still from an ad for a turn-of-the-century chain sandwich restaurant featuring weird lil’ monsters that are like hamster langoliers? They’re wearing hats. It’s not great.

I just can't grasp the idea that he thinks it was excusable.

Like the person owed the 3.5k was definitely in financial distress.

I know he's withdrawn from the race but I still find myself replaying Jim Gavin's response to the question about whether he paid back the overpaid rent.

It's so weird - it was a difficult time for him and his wife and they were in financial difficulty..

Like whut?
