Pain is trying to enjoy F1 with how terribly Ferrari are doing. This is just embarrassing in Qatar.

If you told me that one day the Macy’s Day parade would have a Toy’s R Us float with Lil Jon singing Turn Down for What, I’d never believe you.
You know you’re old when the Macy parade is mostly playing music popular when you were a youth.

An AI support agent from an AI company has started spamming me about a support request. Nothing useful, just constant generic updates it’s reviewing my support case from over a month ago. Yay AI. I’m perplexed.

Someone posted a sovereign citizen plate on Raleigh Reddit. Thinking about it, shouldn't ICE be having confrontations with these people since they don't consider themselves citizens?

6-7 has entered my household. So far just mildly annoyed. We’ll see how long the kids stay fascinated by it.

Social media can push us to the dark side, with negative content. A new study finds watching inspiring videos for just 3 minutes a day is on par with meditation for boosting mood and reducing stress.
Got 3 minutes? This habit may help boost hope and reduce stress

Nothing more satisfying as a dad from Pittsburgh (and embarrassing to my wife) that screaming out the door “What’re YINZ kids doing out there!”

Elementary school kid at my son’s bus stop: “I saw you doom scrolling bro!”

Other kid: “I don’t even have a phone bro!”
