You want a tradwife, fine, build me a house. Fill it with solid wood furniture you made with your own two hands. Help the mare deliver her foal in the springtime. Catch tuberculosis and make me a widow at 32

Rocko's Modern Life episode had a nazi ranting about sea mammals causing all the problems in the country and calling for their mass deportation. The show resolve the issue with the Power of Incredible Violence. A 30 year old cartoon understands fascists.

Covid positive. Got my yearly vaccine two months ago. Symptoms are much less severe than when I had Covid two years ago. Overall not a great experience so far. 2/5 stars.

Relatives getting into arguments on Facebook and we're still over a week out from the extended family Christmas party.

Stark difference between those advocating for the well being of strangers and those directly insulting their own family.

Ycombinator community sucks so bad. Collection of immoral jackasses building Uber, but for kidney harvesting, lining up to defend Alex Jones.

Good. It’s horrific how other platforms abused their reach to strangle local, independent, and national outlets alike.

I WANT to see news and actual vetted work and I WANT journalists to get rewarded for it.

Because I want to live in a thinking human world over some AI generated slop dystopia

Watched "Friends with Kids". Good cast and acting. Adam Scott's character is repulsive and in the final scene is both manipulative and pathetic. But the conclusion ends up sad instead of heartwarming. I was shocked to find out it was written by a woman. There must be a better alternate ending.

Excited about the Bucs v Giants game this weekend. The news that Daniel Jones (QB4) will be in sneakers gives me hope.

The state flag was notably at full mast on my walk to work today. Great start to the morning.

News coverage is cooked. Days from the election and the top story on WSJ is about Kamala Harris's pants vs Trump in a budget Halloween costume.

WSJ's dedication to the facts about Trump's Klan rally is commendable..

Incredible how the fucking wire services at AP can write a better summary of the Trump rally than New York Times political reporters:

Twitters new terms of service are definitely the final straw. Definitely not going back. Probably.

Chicago pizza is repulsive. Both types. Thin crust is worse than the casserole version. They cut it in squares. The middle slices have no crust and turn into gelatinous mush. Why would you make a pizza that has good and bad slices?

This is a solved problem.
