...have been a disaster for the human race. They have greatly increased life-expectancy of those of us who live in 'advanced' countries, but they have destabilized society, have made life unfulfilling, have subjected human beings to indignities, have led to widespread psychological suffering..."

Once again working on teaching and diversity statements and once again combatting the urge to simply submit the Pedagogy of the Oppressed meme with the text "this, but unironically" in lieu of both documents

Reskeet with a banger picture of your cat.

The gang makes mapo tofu
A black cat, and the blonde, 37-year old woman on whose shoulder she's perched, look to the right of the frame, as though looking forward to the future, which holds tofu. Behind them is a counter full of ingredients

"We were being very good, go back to your meal prep, there is nothing amiss here."
Two cats, interrupted mid-combat, looking up innocently as though to say, "We were only hugging enthusiastically, pay us no mind."

Feel like pure shit, just want Bertha, the largest earth pressure balance tunnel boring machine, back.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bertha_(tunnel_boring_machine)
An excerpt from the Wikipedia page on Bertha that reads, "Bertha had a special pre-programmed melody that played for workers inside the machine and those monitoring the tunnel-borer." Would that we could hear Bertha's undoubtedly haunting melodies today. A picture of Bertha's imposing, cylindrical figure, the face of which has 16 radially symmetric turquoise bands dotted with yellow and red, which look playful and innocuous, but probably do something massively destructive.

Ah yes, the planned obsolescence screw. Anyone got a tool for those?
