All Bras You asked us to make a bra that actually feels good, so we did it the Snag way. No underwires. No digging in. Wide straps and a comfy back band that supports without squeezing. Breathable, ethical fab...

I really like the wireless bras from snag tights, especially the ribbed styles snagtights.us/collections/...

When my friends found out I was moving to Boston, they were so worried about the racism that no one bothered to mention the goddamn turkeys.

also you name your stuff after evil stuff from LOTR. I sometimes wonder how poor the reading comprehension of him and other LOTR-loving tech bros are.

Zohran Mamdani campaigned a lot and appears not to hate the voters whose support he's seeking. Here's what other Democrats can learn from his unorthodox strategy.

it's crazy that if you're a cat, your only two life outcomes are eating out of a trash can or getting treated like a little baby

I think one of the saddest things about being a millennial is remembering a time when technology was advancing in a way that made life better and easier and more exciting instead of actively, intentionally worse

This reminds of the DocNow project called Social Humans which were labels you could use in social media datasets and one of the labels was "bot" to mark content created by bots. Unfortunately the links to the project no longer work and I can't find any updates about it.

Every day I draw closer to actually planning what was initially a joke of an idea β€” a private conference where people who feel absolutely insane in our regular life for not believing robots will save us from our ogliarchs can just get together and latent to be normal for 36 hours. Over drinks.

It was three dudes. Two guys packed, one doing the living room, kitchen, dining room, and the other guy doing the bedroom and my home office, and one guy loaded them onto the truck with a dolly, sometimes taking 4 or 5 boxes with him. I just provided donuts and coffee, and stayed out of their way.

i also splurged when i moved from Michigan to Boston, and had the movers pack for me. It was freeing. It took them 4 hours to pack everything and load it on the truck
