Nice detail s1e11 of #brooklyn99 Jake, likely born about 1987, uses to word "son" towards Holt while being unaware of its historically derogatory use towards black men. Holt, much older and aware of its origins, corrects him swiftly but isn't harsh about it, likely recognizing his ignorance.

Nice background detail s1e10 of #brooklyn99 was when right after the bar man is kicking everybody out, Hitchcock and Scully drain their glasses in the background immediately. Not the first time they've been kicked out.

I think it might be the best exchange in #brooklyn99 season 3 episode 6, into the woods. Diaz and Captain Holt are talking after Diaz breaks up with Marcus. Cpt Holt says, "We are so great at this," as they're crying together.

s5e10 ended on such a solid move for Jake in #Brooklyn99 doing a spontaneous game night at Diaz's

Meds are weird.

My meds are not for comfort or peace of mind. They're for being fat.

But I forgot them this morning and I'm totally miserable in this waiting room.

Can't get comfy in a chair, can't settle down, antsy AF, back hurts, heart hammered awhile. Can't pull out a laptop and chill.

Weird

I keep my FB feed pretty clean of even subtle attempts to do right-wing influence on me.
This morning, though, the day after that election, holy crap. Eight different misogyny videos, half were even subtleish.
I think there's the answer: they're doubling down on radicalizing our young men.

Also, in #midnightdiner episode 10 season 2, the opening skit's contrast is funny: polite respectful American tourists, vs the locals up late at night treating the mascots poorly.

Still loving #midnightdiner years later. Gen just slapping the scam artist with that fat sack of cash in season 2 episode 10 was perfect.

I keep kicking around solutions for #TheGreatFilter and every now and then a plot idea shows up at the same time. Wrapping up to be be taught if fortunate, a new plot idea has occurred to me. First contact is a transmission and the world is excited and thrilled and we all hustle to decode it and

In Becky Chambers' #ToBeTaughtIfFortunate, protagonist is the doctor, pilot, observer, and morale officer. She's not the 70s version of a morale officer, either. Her relationships felt like a mutually respectful polycule. She kept everybody else's morale up with thoughts about home.

Trying this #Peacemaker show from Gunn. I'm realizing, #Brooklyn99 was part of the inspiration, wasn't it? The Vigilante friendship reminds me of Boyle. We're all older and more cynical with the current politics bullshit - the innocent enjoyment of cop serials being over so now we have this grittier

First time eldest is trying helldivers 2.
"NOT TODAY!" after the Injury Simulator.
"EAT DEMOCRACY!" as he fires his Liberator, having just picked it up in training.
"HA-HARARRRRR, I'M A RESUPPLIER!"
"YEAAAAH! I'M A HELLDIVER BOY! YEAH! FOR DEMOCRACY!"

I'm not the only one creeped out by chapter 16 of #deathworlders right?

The idea that this this high School boyfriend and girlfriend are suddenly commuting off world to the first human colony and getting their own house?

That she's completely reliant on her boyfriend's family for any support?

(1) I was telling the kids about rationalism and the enlightenment and the scientific method. I explained humans believed in fiction and farmed for twelve thousand years, and gathered for three hundred thousand years before that. I explained the enlightenment gave us society and technology and my

Two episodes into #TalesFromTheLoop and it's the exact kind of quiet meditative show that I just love.

And unfortunately frequently fall asleep to.

Doing an insider trading course at work.
Absolutely infuriated at the idea that these incredibly wide reaching rules don't apply to Congress. That I'd have to eat losses because my spouse might possibly maybe have insider knowledge.

"I just bend the water in the plants."
Solid foreshadowing, #Avatar

The idea that Toph is a master of Neutral Jing is laughable, probably one of the quietest jokes in the series. #Avatar

It's hard to express how much I love this line:

I'm hoping there's a Leslie Fish reference in the last few episodes of #startrekstrangenewworlds
Even if it's something as small as #nursechapel saying "great, fungus eating glass and boils on the ass, what else today?"
Idk if Fish is still known, though, in the fandom.

New best practices for #mysql is: if you are suffering through having triggers in your schema, you must have them check a session variable and skip their behavior if it is set.
We will never get a script to reverse a bin log if you're doing rowbased replication without this flag.

Halfway through L Eclaire's #levelinguptheworld and it seems like tearing down the world order is the only moral path. The moons subjugating sapients to guard objects until they fail and are erased by the moons is justification for subverting their rule.

Book two of #unorthodoxfarming sees the protagonist questioning what his life choices mean and what he should be doing. I want to throw out a theory. He's going to try to find a way to let all classes rapidly reach level 100 so that people can have freedom.
