Well, well. I was right. The rain is not coming to my city. The swirling piss vortex is being repelled by the localized hell vortex that is my city.

Fucking Apple. I can't upgrade my iPhone to iOS 26.1, because over 32GB of the 64GB of storage is being eaten up by the OS. Oh, and it now saves cropped screen shots as JPEGs.
Cropped screen shot of the iOS 26.0.1 storage status page, showing that over half of my storage is being eaten up by the "iOS" and "System Data" categories. The next largest item is "Applications", followed by my mere 5GB of cached photo data. Yes, it saved the screen shot as a JPEG, adding lovely ringing artifacts to all the text.

CW: uspol, AI, gross

So, according to Google AI, Trump does not vacate his bowels. That must be why all the shit comes out of his mouth whenever he speaks instead!
A screen shot crop of a Google search for the phrase "trump trump took a dump". The AI Overview states: "The claim that Donald Trump 'took a dump' is false and not supported by any credible evidence. It is a crude and vulgar expression that has appeared in multiple contexts over the years."

Fuck you, Apple customers! If you're dumb enough to buy a tablet with just 64GB of storage, that leaves your shmuck ass with just 24GB for user data! That's right, 24GB for user data! That includes apps!
iPadOS is using 25.12 GB of space, of which, in another screen, it reports to be reserving about 7 GB for OS updates. It is also using roughly 17.13 GB for "System Data", which appears to include swap space, as the figure fluctuates by 60-100MB every time I save a cropped screen shot to my photos library.

Okay, so my parents' local newspaper seriously referenced avocado toast in a full backpage ad to drive up subscriptions.
A full page newspaper ad, captioned, "A month's subscription to the Press-Enterprise, THE SUN and the Daily Bulletin equals the cost of one of these:" followed by a picture of avocado toast. The rest follows, "One will make you hip. The other will make you smart. The fact is, quality journalism can't be done on the cheap. Scoops. Insight. Context. These take time and talent. And that costs money-which is where you come in. If you already subscribe, thank you. If you value local news, won't you show your support with a monthly subscription? Because otherwise, hometown newspapers like ours will be toast." Then follows their slogan, "Local. News. Matters."

Sunday's Wizard of Id has total "how do you do, fellow kids" energy this week #comics #wizardofid #howdoyoudofellowkids
Sunday, June 29, 2025's Wizard of Id comic. The king is giving a speech from the balcony. He sighs in one panel, then thinks "Okay... here we go" in the next. Then, the speech: "My fellow Idiots. The state of the union is... Friggin' dope as heck, fam!" (in the background, fireworks go off) "You're high-key delulu if you sleepin' on how dank this economy is irl" "This place be straight bussin' while our enemies clockin up some legit skibidi brain rot" "No cap, the rest of the world is mid. I, your gigachad king, have unlocked infinite drip!" (the crowd exlaims "YAAAAY!") The king leaves the balcony and says "Our new Gen Z speechwriter is lit!", as the crowd exlaims "hooray!" outside.

CW: Bruce Tinsley's shitty comic, shitty childhood memories

I must not be very "normal", because I don't remember ever playing the "My dad could beat up your dad" card during my lifetime. Nobody really played it against me, either. Though once, during one of those lovely proxy baptism outings
A comic featuring two kids standing next to each other, and one of them is bragging to the other, "My dad's virtual reality avatar could beat up your dad's virtual reality avatar."

Can't be any worse than getting Howard Wolowitz in your first four recognized characters. Though Hodgins was the closest match, and I did recognize him.
Jack Hodgins from Bones Matt Hooper from Jaws Howard Wolowitz from The Big Bang Theory. Ugh. Doc Brown from Back to the Future

Posting more crap to my timeline to make the Trump thumbnail I inadvertently posted go away.

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #57,620!

Glad to see it was a measure of success for a bunch of people. Here's to continued smooth sailing.

Holy crap, Thunderbird. Shut *up*.

As a friend said:

Developers learn what 'consent' means challenge (impossible)

#thunderbird #email #mail #consent
A screen shot of a window titled "Compact folders" from the mail reader, Thunderbird. Thunderbird needs to do regular file maintenance to improve the performance of your mail folders. This will recover 21.9 MB of disk space without changing your messages. To let Thunderbird do this automatically in the future without asking, check the box below before choosing 'Compact now'. Below that is a checkbox labeled "Compact folders automatically in the future" Below are two choice buttons labeled "Remind me later" and "Compact now", and on the far left, a button labeled "Learn more...".
