Some @FedEx delivery jackass thought it was a great idea to disrupt the whole neighborhood by sitting with his door open with music and bass blaring for the ~10-15 minutes it took them to deliver a package and figure their shit out.

Super professional. /s

"Guitar mounted on the wall in the background of a Zoom meeting" is the tech bro equivalent of "guy holding up a fish" on Tinder.

I'd like to have words with whoever started the "5 pixel wide scrollbar" web design trend.

Those words, specifically, would be a hearty "fuck you" and a few whaps with a rolled up newspaper. Bad! That's a no! Go to the kennel and think about what you've done.

As I come out of a multi-day migraine, I'd like to express my gratitude to everyone with a "dark mode" option. And will be having words with others...

Nothing quite says "you don't go outside enough" like picking up a new shade of foundation called "Ivory" and it ending up being too dark to match your skin tone.

I'm happy to announce, starting tomorrow, I begin #JOmegaprog to raise money for @Genderintell 🏳️‍⚧️

I was an early adopter of Gutenberg. Loved it despite many of its early flaws and flaws it continues to have. But I'll be honest, I'm finding myself empathizing with the Classic Editor folks as full-site editing (FSE) is creeping its way in. I simply don't enjoy the experience.

If you ever need a writing prompt for a warm-up, I like to use Craig's List Missed Connections.

Allow me to introduce you to the most ridiculous yet amazing thing you will see this week.

One day I'll figure out backgrounds. Today is not that day.

Lest we forget the ever-practical kawaii katana hilt keychain. Every warrior needs one of those!

[MeMi 🥃 @CodeAndWhiskey]

While I tend to be a practical person in life, there's nothing I love more than impractical anime fashion. Sometimes a post-apocalyptic warrior needs a long, unnecessary scarf and earrings made from the teeth of badlands beasts she's taken out. This is OK.

This morning I've been roleplaying with ChatGPT by giving it various anti-accessibility characters I've encountered in real life and even switched roles, instructing it to be the specialist while I am arguing against it. It has been an incredibly fascinating exercise.

My Liquid Web campfire mug is 99% of the way to just being a campfire mug.

[MeMi 🥃 @CodeAndWhiskey]

My co-workers and I kept getting tongue-tied saying "ChatGPT" and have started to call it Chat-Bob. Glad it doesn't mind.

Recently, my 80lb/36kg dog has gotten into the habit of sitting on my cat. And I gotta say, it's one of the most effective power moves I've ever witnessed.

Football is not a good excuse to drive up people's asses on the highway. I'm going to have license plates show up in my next colonscopy. Slow the fuck down!

@alanefuller @benswrite @Media I learned about this query recent and it blew my mind. It also works if you use :root variables which helps reduce repetitive CSS. Just flip the :root scheme in dark or light.
