You're probably sick of hearing about dishwasher powder...
so let's talk about laundry detergent. I'm a lazy ass who can't be bothered to throw away old boxes sometimes but look what that laziness hath wrought.
just why exactly is one box good for 80 loads but the other does 89, hmm?

Lessons from being online since 1995
1. Brandolini's law:
"The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude bigger than that needed to produce it."
2. Chill before serving. (Mine)
3. It's irony when the actor or observer is "confidently unaware."
4. On the Media's rules.

Kahless tells us that someone who is lying to themselves can't be honest with you. Beware those whose confidence betrays their delusion, and strive to be honest with yourself. That way lies truth, if not glory.

A Nazi owns Twitter, right wing billionaires own the Wall Street Journal and the LA Times, and CBS is run by a right wing nepo baby who just fired one of the network’s biggest stars for criticizing Donald Trump. Here’s why America has a left-wing media bias problem.

RIP Peter David. This thread right here.
Really sorry to hear about Peter David; his work with Star Trek was among the best of the '90s licensed material. I only met him once; it was when I would do part-time at the local comic shop for store credit.

Peter David wrote all my favorite Hulk comics when I was a kid. Then, years later, presumably not knowing that I was a fan, he showed up at a book signing of mine to wait in line and give me a signed copy of one of HIS books! Baller move. RIP to one of the greats.
