just wrote a sentence which includes "vice versâ vis-à-vis" in it

We've had the Gulf of America for a while - but it wasn't a stretch of water between two countries, it was a dearth of social policies (healthcare access, worker protections, public services, etc.) between one country and all of the others. So I guess there are just two of them now.

If I ever get a chance to build a house, I'm putting power outlets every 20 feet, inside and outside. The lengths I have to go to to get power to ANYWHERE are just ridiculous.

thinking of opening an etsy shop

Vampire Weekend x Modest Mouse = Rusted Root

Idk who needs to know this but you can recycle half gallon cartons like this

We could’ve had an Idris Elba 007 and missed the chance. What a shame.

Boy, this is great advice! Or at least it would be, if it wasn’t complete horseshit. Sure, adding an extra payment avoids some interest, but not 13 years of interest! 🧵⤵️

In King County you can either buy one 12-pack of Coke for $11 or 7 of them for $15

my new guest wifi portal

this is idiotic.

These lights we found are so cool! Tiny little snow globes!

Man, "Apple Intelligence" is terrible. I can't believe how unhelpful Siri is with AI. I literally cannot get Siri to tell me how to use Siri.

apparently I've been saying Fibonacci wrong for my whole life - I thought there was an "i" between the b and o but nope

how are we not calling cottage cheese "cottage fromage"? this is unacceptable

I’m getting billions (read: dozens) of followers. How? Where are y’all coming from? How did you find me? I’m happy you’re here! I’m surprised I’m interesting to this many of you suddenly.

Hey ADHD folks - how often do you find your ADHD causing you to feel like you're super selfish, or like you're at least appearing to be super selfish to others? Happens to me constantly, it is the worst!

If I actually ever used YouTube Music this would be really embarrassing that said, it IS a banger

I learned nothing

“Welcome to my patio store! The name's Patty O'Furniture, and our prices shamROCK!”

wife: "mmk you better be planning to wrap all the presents this year because I'm not using that thing" husband (lying): "yeah I was already gonna ok?"

I made this and I think it’s pretty accurate

So my car started SMOKING INSIDE this morning… and no, this is not the same car as my last post. This is my ‘23 Tesla Model X. Sliiiightly disconcerting.

@mcuban.bsky.social just curious if Vyvanse (lisdexamphetamine) is on the radar? Current prices for generic are nearly $5k per year

Any teachers out there seeing ChatGPT as a tool instead of a “cheating device”? Imagine assigning homework where students write essays and then refine them using ChatGPT, showing the refinements by turning in the chat transcript, rather than policing their work with subpar AI detectors.

Just got a flat tire on our Volvo… 45 miles from home… with no spare… with both twins on board.

I am gonna start awarding all expenses paid trips to come spend a day with me to the celebrities I want to meet. It’s so crazy it just might work. @hankgreen.bsky.social and @stephenfry.bsky.social keep your eyes peeled.

new captain america poster dropped

I’m over the idea that I need to bend toward the chaos to bring it back with me. I realized that mirrors a double standard common in Christianity today: that the rest are lost and bewildered and need to be saved, but don’t let your own guard down because you’ll get dechristianified in no time.

Well I’m moving here from the old musky place

Dear mechanical keyboard people, All keyboards are “tactile” unless you’re using the onscreen one. Yours in professionalism, Jake

Welcome all! Here’s another ping so I show up in searches so my fellow Bungie employees find me

On theme with the name “Nevaeh”, maybe I’ll name my next kid Yrotagrup
