Had some amazing hot fried chicken here in Nashville for my first dinner in town. Though the restaurant’s concept of “medium” spicy is off balance. This is more like “holy hell are you trying to kill me?”.

One of my banks here in Argentina, in its infinite wisdom, decided that usernames also had to follow password rules:

- 8 characters long
- 1 uppercase
- 1 lowercase
- 1 symbol
- can't be any of the previous usernames

This bank also has no less than 5 different passwords/pins/keys I have to use.

Pardon my French, but what the flying fuck?
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

"After Deadly Plane Crash at UPS Hub in Louisville, Some Deliveries May Be Delayed"

I feel like this article didn't really need to be written.
A plane crash in Louisville, Kentucky, on Tuesday killed at least nine people and forced a halt to operations at a major automated package sorting facility. UPS said that some deliveries could be delayed.

On a flight with about 50 priests. This is either going to be a very smooth flight or the worst.

CNBC: Colbert is a comedian. You keep talking about journalism and fairness in news, but we all remember Carson and Jay Leno giving Reagan the business. Where does that fit in?

If you don't already, watch Colbert. He is a man with no more f*cks left to give. And it's glorious.

Are any of my followers based in New Zealand? Want to help bring an urbanist, progressive and a somewhat technically literate voice to local government here?

I'm running for Hutt Central in this year's council elections and need to create a small team to help with that.

So much this.

Also websites that redirect you to a different regional domain without an option to go back.

Looking at you, @kitchenaidusa.bsky.social
A pet peeve of mine:

Websites and apps that change language based on IP address, and do not allow to change back the language to English.

GoDaddy is a persistent example that drives me crazy.

Over the years I learned basic Dutch, but want to manage my DNS settings English...

First thought: damn cool!

Second thought: I hope this isn’t a The Last of Us-situation in a few years.
Scientists in N. Zealand have discovered a native fungus that can break down plastic in just 140 days.
Researchers at the University of Canterbury have now found that Daldinia concentrica can digest common plastics like polypropylene & polyethylene, which make up a huge portion of global waste.

We should’ve left the gate 20 minutes ago. Plane doors are still open. Somehow I don’t think we’ll arrive on time.

Delta totally missed the boat in not letting folks bid for the spare first class suites on this flight. Whole section is half empty. Same for premium economy.

Well that’s a first.
