It’s been a good year, dad.

Before dad passed, it amazed me that he did Saturday puzzles. They seemed impossible. Since he passed, I've finished 14 in a row.

I also learned @brettkiefer could do em, so maybe my 🧠 decided that if that dummy can do em, SURELY I can.

I prefer to think it's the dad thing.

I really want everyone to pivot back from video. I fucking hate video. Do not ever make me watch a video just to obtain information. Making me watch a video instead of giving me text I can read is an act of violence against me specifically. When will it end.

The other day I pitched “Donna Martin Graduates” for my picket sign and literally no one knew what I was talking about so now I’m also on strike from young people.

Had a 🍌s @Uber experience. Used their package delivery to get my kids' switch home.

After pickup, the driver changed the delivery location to a McDonalds in another county and marked it delivered.

Uber support said they tried to contact the driver, but hadn't heard back, so🤷

Last GOP race:

GOP: You do it, Paul Ryan!
PR: Nah

GOP: We refuse, despite having no alternative.We'd literally rather no one do it than u

At first, I thought GPT Chat had no practical applications beyond “faking business-speak BS”.

I was very wrong.

OMG the article is just as funny.

In the long and storied history of burns… this just might be the sickest.

Watching Elon struggle with Twitter is the closest we will come to knowing what would happen if gamers took over decision making on their games. The more obvious your "solution" seems, the more likely it is that it's already been thought of and it isn't happening for a reason.

[John Bull @garius]

And I will admit this is one of the reasons I am (with sadness, because I've got a lot of value out of this place) watching Elon's current actions wrt Twitter with curious horror.

Because I've NEVER seen someone make such a deep dive for the Trust Thermocline, so quickly.

@jlericson It looks amazing.

@JasonPunyon @tinkertim That kid was doping. I’m sure of it.

@codinghorror Just curious: Did a Lego set happen to trigger this discovery?
