Now I have to figure out how to turn off Gemini in Google Maps. Pretty soon most of my day will be spent removing AI from everything I use.

So Philip Glass just joined TikTok. He only has like 4 posts and they’re simply him in what I assume is his living room playing the piano. First comment on one I saw was β€œyour piano is too close to the fireplace, you’ll dry it out” and if that’s not the internet in a nutshell I don’t know what is.

It looks amazing but β€œMulholland Drive meets Frozen” killed me.

Importantly they are planning to hire these people on 2 year contracts so what actually happened is they fired everyone so they could rehire them with worse working conditions and an easy revolving door with industry 🫩 πŸ”­

Considering running for public office on a platform that is: abolishing ICE, legalizing abortion, providing free, gender-affirming care to everyone who would like it, and getting rid of stupid time changes.

Congress could stop this tomorrow but the GOP has decided to step aside and let a madman start war after war based on vibes and whatever death spiral these freaks are locked in

Although I haven't seen the new Candyman, so maybe I'll watch that one...

This week has been a month, and today has been a week, and I'm still not close to done, but in my head, I'm on the couch with junk food and a cold cocktail while watching Candyman (1992).

Markwayne Mullin is going to be just as bad. This is why the entire doom loop needs to stop all together and you only get that by removing the entire regime.

I need everyone to understand Markwayne is going to be much worse than Noem. Truly.

Grown people who are unable to eat chips without making noise confuse and confound me.

If you are in line to post a Kristi Noem getting fired joke - STAY IN LINE.

Sorry boss, I can't work, I'm watching Kristi Noem do a press conference and she doesn't know she's been shitcanned

REALLY. TRULY.

If you're at the airport and Kristi Noem is doing the ominous little message from the TSA screens, you no longer have to do anything she says. Leave your laptop in the case, whatever.

First close the application. Then shut down your computer. Then unplug it from the wall. Pick it up, put it in your car, drive/walk east, throw it in Lake Michigan

Using Word in MS365 in the browser has just started adding the most nonsensical auto corrects while typing. I can't figure out how to turn it off.

HOW DO I TURN THIS OFF?

Again: Not hyperbole, misinterpretation, or a joke that Christian Dominionism is a strain of apocalyptic accelerationism which VERY LITERALLY SEEKS to hasten their vision of the Biblical end of the world, & the people who believe this have VERY CAREFULLY worked their way into the halls of U.S. power

This sucks. Postable made it so easy for me to collect addresses and keep them updated.

No more holiday cards, I guess.
