The more work safe account of a SoCal sabercat.
Browsing Trulia rentals and I keep finding myself a little flabbergasted at a townhome that's asking for a $1775 pet deposit, tells you not to disturb the tenants, and will only let you see the place if you qualify.

The place was historically listed and taken down the next day almost every time.

Goes without saying not to pressure people.

I'm happy to explain though.

I can sometimes drink and be fine.

Or I can have a single drink and end up with diarrhea and a mild hangover until the next afternoon.

A steep price for expensive empty calories so I rarely partake now. Glad you asked? 💅
Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:

Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.

If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.

Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

AMEX platinum be like, "Don't forget to use your $50 Saks credit."

Oh, on what? A gift card?

Saks: Get the fuck out of here. We don't sell gift cards to AMEX holders.

Steams discussion boards have to be just about the single most toxic place I've ever been these days... 😂

It's all teenagers and gaming addicts that get on to complain and troll each other day in and day out.

We should have reporters asking Trump "Who is Bubba? No really, who is Bubba?" Constantly. Until he resigns. And even if he does they should still dig real real deep.

A little food porn from last weekend.

The egg was perfectly cooked, I just wish it was marinaded and then it would have been absolute perfection~

Man, my upstairs neighbor came home and is already slamming stuff around for half an hour as if to make up for being quieter yesterday.

Got woken up at 11:30 the other day.

I could swear it's like I'm also taking a bath at the same time they are except unlike them I don't punch the fucking walls.

This is because Intuit, Inc. gave Donald Trump $1,000,000 for his "inauguration." Intuit owns Turbo Tax, which makes money off charging taxpayers to file their returns.

The corruption is rampant and in plain sight.

Steam forums people bragging about having over 1200 hours on a video game that came out June 5th...

That's 50 days of the 154 days it's been out. When do they sleep or work?

(Rhetorical, they definitely don't.)

Got a 109/81 BP reading 42 hours off the med. It's amazing what not being in pain does.

Weird how Kaiser won't treat pain and orders $480 CT scans without having me try this first. But they will try to fuck me over with medical bills I don't need and gaslight me when I realize it was the medicine.

I need to go visit this chee again

So Amlodipene causes the same side effects as Lisinopril potentially and definitely causes constipation which I absolutely am now.

I think I'm gonna go off it for a few days and see if my pain goes down. If it does, I can cancel the CT scan and refuse treatment. I'll get my BP down myself somehow.

I like the distinction, though it may be important to note that generative AI does use machine learning. That's where the data sets come in.

But then they just make convoluted plagiarism bots that randomly lie using complex algorithms that require more power than a small town to operate. 😂
They are also intentionally conflating machine-learning and generative AI slop to confuse and try to make GenAI seem necessary. Google Maps traffic stuff is machine learning, not GenAI, for example. Auto-correct is too. Don't let them make you lose the thread. GenAI slop is slop.
the nyt posts this stuff like avoiding AI for 48 hours is hard and meanwhile i have literally never once intentionally used an AI program for anything ever

No, Kaiser Permanente. Stress is not the cause of my bowel pains. What went on in my visit would have triggered it

Referring me to a fucking psychotherapist and gaslighting me into thinking it's all in my head and diet as if I don't know my body?

Declining treatment time. What a waste of a copay 😤
October 29, 2025 at 12:59 AM
I need to go back here for comfort food again later. Or something.

Frustrated cats need their fish for stress relief right?

When a chatbot gets something wrong, it’s not because it made an error. It’s because on that roll of the dice, it happened to string together a group of words that, when read by a human, represents something false. But it was working entirely as designed. It was supposed to make a sentence & it did.

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

Hey @support.bsky.team , serious request. Can you fix the fact that Android notifications open the reply on the current account I'm on and not the one that received the notification?

I'm disabling notifications from your app for the rest of time at this rate.

See, I was going to buy one of their passes again this year but now I'm thinking they can fuck off.

The government is shut down, but the USDA has time for propaganda when Republicans have control of both the house and the senate.

Since when are they allowed to break the Hatch act?

So... Pineapple grilled cheese?

If it goes on pizza would this possibly work too? Questions for the ages~

The east wing of the white house being destroyed by Trump should be viewed as a crime. That's history being demolished to satisfy one mans ego.

Why isn't Congress holding him to account for this? Not only that, trying to shake down DoJ for $230M dollars? The corruption is staggering.

If my lower gut could stop burning and causing me pain I would be very happy.
October 21, 2025 at 4:54 PM
Yeah, intestinal angioedema isn't fun. I can't do Lisinopril.
October 18, 2025 at 3:16 AM
So if I'm having some stabbing pains in my gut after starting to take Lisinopril I think maybe that's a sign I should stop...
