Oh. Hopefully that *doesn't* happen, then!

Maybe her enforced time in the bathroom will mean that, once she's allowed out, she'll want to avoid going in again and you'll be able to do your bathroom activities without an audience?

...lobotomy *would* be faster, yes. Oof, clients. Can't work with 'em, etc etc etc.

My passive-aggression level was certainly nearing that point by the time he finally figured things out!!!

Why can't they just *understand* things??? Argh argh argh.

How many ways am I going to have to explain the answer to this client's question before he gets it. So far I've written four clear, detailed emails and he's still asking me the same thing. I feel like I'm being "shark skin is smooth as hell"-ed.

President's Choice ads are now, literally, "We provide telehealth! We also provide groceries!" Telus sells health insurance and cellphone plans. Why has this been allowed to happen. What are we doing here.

You don't have to answer all the questions, just the ones where you have input to share. And you can save your progress and come back later if you don't have time to answer everything in one sitting.

Canadians: The federal government is seeking public input on how AI should be developed and used in business, research, and the military.

If this scares the shit out of you, please let them know:

Just watched The Tingler. Vincent Price's commitment to delivering the most asinine "scientific" exposition as if it were long-studied and settled real-world fact remains unmatched.

Found an absolute unit of toadstool in the back yard.

A multi-lobed toadstool, or possibly a group of seven toadstools that grew close enough to each other that their caps folded under and around each other and it's impossible to see where one ends and another begins.

I have spent Too Much Time banging my head against various technology failures over the last couple of weeks. Was there a solar flare or something?

Mister Pope
The Bible gives you all the clues

worm @rfksbrainworm.bsky.social · 20d

really enjoying all the people trying to explain the bible to the pope today

Pope Leo XIV
Today, more than ever, we must return to the heart, the center of feeling and emotion, the locus of freedom. Though it includes reason, the heart transcends and transforms it. Only by returning to the heart can we undergo a true ecological conversion that transforms our personal

Austin
I reject this whole heartedly. What you fail to see Mr Pope, the Bible says

A country is not a business, nor should it be run like one. Public services shouldn’t be expected to turn a profit.

Canada Post “lost” 1 billion dollars last year?

How about, “it cost Canadians 1 billion dollars to have a national postal service” which works out to costing about $25 a year per person (population of Canada in 2024 = 40 million). Seems like a pretty reasonable cost to me.

Julie S. Lalonde @julieslalonde.bsky.social · 27d

"Canada Post is on track to lose money" Hum. Duh. It cost less than a toonie to send a letter across Canada.

"Canada Post is a service and not a business" was common knowledge until late stage capitalism brain rotted most people into think if it ain't making money for shareholders, it's failing.

Rich people, especially rich people in the media & entertainment industries right this moment:

The point of having fuck you money is saying “fuck you” when it counts.

The way they tried to pretend there was a vaguely sci-fi explanation for the climactic CG glowy-hands battle ("science so advanced it's indistinguishable from magic!") might not have been the WORST part, but it wasn't a GOOD part.

Jayne L. @serricoj.bsky.social · Sep 12

Anyway! There was some decent stuff scattered throughout, but generally, kind of a messy and overall unsatisfying season, there, #SNW.

Jayne L. @serricoj.bsky.social · Sep 12

I know they did one on DS9, but frankly time and the Marvelfied cliche of climactic CG glowy-hands battles haven't exactly improved the experience.

Jayne L. @serricoj.bsky.social · Sep 12

Maybe mine is a minority opinion, but I don't think Star Trek was really suffering by not having climactic CG glowy-hands battles.
