Someone once said NextDoor is the social network for dogs if they could type. It’s always “what’s that noise?” and “who’s that stranger?” which is exactly what I imagine my dogs would text other neighborhood dogs.

Hey, did you know there's an alternative to ChatGPT that makes sense economically and doesn't destroy the environment? It's called English majors and they will happily fix all of your documents for the low price of health insurance and a living wage.

"As Trump has shown, the assumption that a good businessperson will automatically be a good politician is flawed" He hasn't shown anything of the sort.

🤔 What's my next self-hosting project? Currently thinking of (in no particular order): 1) Recover my #Friendica instance (completely destroyed 3 months ago) to get me back on #ActivityPub 2) Implement an alternative ActivityPub service (maybe #Akkoma?) 1/2

Dear @microsoft.com, I would like to reiterate: the Taskbar overflow menu in Windows 11 is a total mess, and for as long as I am required to use Windows, I will look forward to you guys fixing it. The sooner, of course, the better. GRMA.

Here's an idea: Sack Vance and impeach Trump, in that order. Let me know if it gets across the border safely.

The risk @irishtimes.com is running is the potential loss of reputation (assuming it hasn't happened yet; not a safe assumption I suspect) from paying and promoting people to write columns for it who are not even slightly conversant with the topics they cover. 1/2

Respectfully (or not, I will let the reader decide), I would like *neither* Bertie Ahern nor Máiréad McGuinness to be the next Uachtarán na Éireann.

Biggest commitment to a 3 second joke I've ever seen

"Everything I don't like is Communism" is the only learning yanks do on civics and politics, isn't it? Time to end that Cold War brain. MAGA is fascism. It is by definition closer to capitalistic conservatism than Communism. Words have meanings, like.

I'd say it won't be long before the US will enter the "we urgently need to find a major scandal involving J.D. Vance to force him to resign or be fired" phase of the second Trump administration.

I doubt this will happen. Far too many leaders of the "opposition" in the U.S. (i.e. the Democrats) believe what Trump is doing is good, just that it's a little too chaotic. To my knowledge, for example, I don't think the Democrats accept that the invasion of Iraq was based on a massive lie.

Just like most of the replies to this OG, I've never seen my (nearly 90 years old) father wear jeans. I don't think he ever owned a pair. However, on the other hand 'n' all, my kids (20, 16 and 12) will say of me that they rarely saw me wear any other type of trousers.
