…you twit!!

I remember having this conversation with my mom when I was young and saying something like, “Well that’s great then, this is an easy win. Scientists should be able to examine them and confirm the change and then we know what the Bible is telling us is true,” and she replied that that’s not how faith works. And I was dumbfounded and like, “But… it would be so easy…”

And that lesson of how willfully choosing ignorance is somehow something to be valued was a key turning point in my waking up to the bullshit of religion. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

With the demise of Omnivore I was about to roll out an alternative on my NAS. How does this compare to Wallabag?

Same. I’m fucking furious. I specifically chose it over something like Readwise in order to stay open source. Ugh.

Yeah but how do you consult those rules? How often are they updated? How do you get notified of updates?

The fact that there are no answers to these questions and therefore everyone is working with mismatching rule sets makes the whole thing useless. You can be totally well meaning and still piss off a server because somehow you don’t know what the currently acceptable magic number is.

I recently visited the states for the first time in a decade and didn’t find out until afterwards that 15% is now considered by some people to be “low”. Sorry everyone who I tipped, I shafted you without realizing it. 🤷‍♂️

It’s from the movie Snatch. Banger of a classic!

Why don’t they just make the whole plane planet out of the black box paint.

You rock, thank you!

So how do I actually opt out? My website is just some personal hobby stuff on wordpress that only friends and family look at, I don’t need seo.

Immortan Joe has entered the chat…

I love this comment so effing much! ❤️

Except no it wouldn’t because he wielded power exclusive to the office of president therefore it is considered an official act and his motives cannot even be investigated to find out if it was an abuse of power.

The degree to which the Supreme Court has fucked the US with this ruling is hard to understate.

Sorry, baby. No one rules the Tom Monster!

The simple charm of this exchange had me rolling

Yikes! Yeah, that’s messed up. Thanks for the info!

I’m out of the loop, what did Better Help do?

How dare you make me remember these things and realize how old I am!

I always liked the other one where Garfield was left in but all his thought bubbles were removed, so it just became a deadpan documentary about a slightly unhinged loser’s life with a cat.

…which many of us can relate to. :P

Content leaving is totally a problem. I’ve lost track of the number of times my spouse and I say, “Oh hey, what about we finally watch xyz that’s been in our queue for ages? Yeah that seems like a good one for Friday pizza night! …oh, it’s vanished from our queue, hooray.”

It’s not my full time job to keep tabs on what’s coming and going from the damn entertainment service that I hope to use in my ever dwindling reserves of free time. Especially when there’s alternative means available that are not too difficult to use.
