I hate it when apps and websites do that cutesy "Yes" or "Maybe later" thing. No -- NEVER. I *never* want do try your stupid new feature. I *never* want to spontaneously apply for a home equity line of credit due to a pop-up.

If you like dark comedies or science fiction and you haven't seen *Mickey 17* yet, you owe it to yourself to watch it ASAP. Holy shit.

I think about this @alexkrokus.bsky.social a lot

It is a little weird to me countries aren’t more aggressively, formally trying to take advantage of the U.S. science brain drain. Once in a lifetime opportunity to buy low on Non-Dumbass Americans with PhDs who just wanna look into microscopes and quietly cure ass cancer as our country eats shit.

Not all echoes are meant to return. The lights flicker not from power loss, but memory. When the clock chimes out of rhythm and the sky hums a little too low, you’ll understand what wasn’t written. Some birds don’t migrate—they vanish.

An important point to keep in mind.

Amazing 🤣

I'm interested in doing a tabletop gaming (or adjacent) convention this year in the Michigan/Indiana/Ohio tri-state area. I used to love Origins, but it's really lackluster since COVID, and GenCon is wayyyyyy, wayyyyy too crowded, to the point where it's more hassle than fun to go. Any suggestions?

The CFPB was dismantled over the weekend, with all activities suspended, its funding reduced to zero, and its headquarters temporarily closed—removing a crucial layer of oversight for consumer-facing financial companies. Staff members ordered to cease all ‘supervision and examination activities.

The CIA Isn't without flaw But it should be improved Not dismantled This is the act of a madman It Leaves the country defenseless against our enemies. I'm starting to think we'll need the military to step in and arrest Trump and his band of bumbling buffoons. www.cnn.com/2025/02/04/p...

Please and thank you
