My five year old said @celebrityhottub.bsky.social and @edsbs.bsky.social had the best Mickey and Goofy voices. He then proceeded to try to do his own Mickey voice and say “they expect one of us on the wreckage”. He has never seen Dark Knight Rises.

Well it all started two Thanksgivings ago, two years ago on Thanksgiving, when my friend and I went up to visit Alice at the restaurant. But you see Alice doesn't live at the restaurant, she lives inside the church nearby the restaurant, up in the bell tower, with her husband Ray and Facha the dog.

You can defrost a large frozen turkey overnight by placing it into a deep sink full of lukewarm (not hot!) water. If you haven't defrosted your turkey yet, there's still time.

Every Democrat in Congress should put out a video saying troops have an obligation to refuse unlawful orders. Make them prosecute all of you. This isn't a close call.
I'd add Republicans too if I thought any of them had the courage to actually cross Trump on this.

Hegseth is now threatening to recall Sen. Mark Kelly to active duty in order to court martial him.

These dogs know this pancake is for them. However they don’t know that it too hot to eat so they’re giving me the impatient whine and whimper.

Anyone got relatively high-confidence data - CSVs, not just a few dozen screenshots - to back up the X location-accounts scandal? I believe that some fraction of MAGA are overseas... but I want real data.

Just watched NOW YOU SEE ME which I found structurally infuriating on pretty much every level. Did not work at all, left me wanting to take an angry red pen to the script and write SEE ME AFTER CLASS.

"writing code to solve a problem" used to have "understanding the problem" as a prerequisite. but vibecoding allows solution-shaped objects to be produced without any of the hard-won understanding. beware of solution-shaped objects.

When I was a kid, visiting my grandma in Florida, I would do this with baby geckos on her porch, walk in and sit down to dinner, and see how long it took the family to notice
There was a brief but weird trend at my high school of girls wearing lizards as earrings. Like. Live, unharmed, wild lizards. You just catch one and pick it up and wave a finger a bit and then hold it to your earlobe and they’ll bite and dangle all day. I do not recommend this but. it was a thing
The alligator lizard promptly bit the shit out of my finger.

The announcer hit the SIX SEVEN so the meme is dead
Jordan Stout might actually be this team's MVP. A 74 yard punt in the first half and now a 67 yarder

Coming downstairs in the morning to find that my PC has rebooted overnight is a little irritating. Finding this screen, though, is going to turn me into the Joker.
The PC is almost ten years old. I promise you, it's set up the way I want it. I'm FULLY done setting up my PC.
