RE: https://mastodon.social/@arstechnica/116970354506766970 F-, DO NOT WANT! ★ 1 Gotta love the same accounts that (rightly) castigate #Mozilla for "going back into the Nazi bar" and then pass around #Substack links. 🙄 ★ 5 #Rubio #Trump #Tate #Florsheim #ClownShoes ★ 3 Weather forecast, or mental health update? ★ 14 "Your device is up to date. Last checked: 5/19/2017, 8:36 PM" Uhhhh...thanks, Windows Update. Way to stay on top of things. 😜 ★ 1 RE: https://mastodon.social/@livelakeerie/116931642604772868 No, the camera's not out. That's just how shitty the air is there. If you zoom in you can tell there's some water visible at the bottom of the pic. O.o ★ 1 #WilliamShatner is playing at this year's #RiotFest in #Chicago. What even is this timeline we're in? https://parade.com/news/william-shatner-95-announced-hes-covering-black-sabbath-at-riot-fest #riotfest2026 #captainkirk ★ 2 RE: https://graphics.social/@metin/116929283984909484 No matter how bad I understand LLMs to be, reality is always coming up with a, "Hold my beer..." moment to let me know that it is in fact much worse. ★ 2 RE: https://mastodon.social/@fesshole/116924901320372828 When he was 16 months old my eldest played this game all around the Mall of America without even needing to be dared. And no matter how much his mother and I tried to stop him. 😂 ★ 2 RE: https://www.threads.com/@newrepublic/post/Da0Xtt8FJWv But according to Trump we've won it like, 83 times (and counting!) so we're still way ahead of the game. ★ 1 RE: https://mastodon.world/@BrianJopek/116908571653310726 We have our needed "Old Scottish woman commenting on Thatcher's passing" take on Lindsey Graham's passing. ★ 9

About

Humanist. Nerd. Introvert. Jaded optimist. Usually cruppish. Server jockey. Dad. World is a fuck. Views are my own. Profile pic: Man in a gray shirt and green/gray ball cap taking a selfie. His glasses are tinted dark from the sun, and he has a short brown beard. In the background is a stream, a yellow kayak, and various grasses and trees beyond those. The sky is a brilliant blue with a few fluffy white clouds lazing about.
