watching someone switch to linux

They install gnome

they install extensions to make it look like windows

gnome breaks

repeat.

Hockey intermission interviews are great because the players look terrified and can barely form a thought. Social anxiety representation.

If we all get together we can co-ordinate tru anyone tipping tips well eboguh to make Brade and Liz legit believe something silly. I'm thinking anacondas. Just everyone start dealing in with sightings of large constrictor snakes or the disappearance of small animals and large snake like trails in your neighborhood. If we make it seem real and they do a full episode on the large snakes it means we can do anything. We can develop nukes

I wish libidinous still had the bee element from the noun form. Kinda lame without it tbh

I actually heard an argument that was anti-communist and pro-capitalist that gave me pause.

Steel cut oats are worse than rolled

I just discovered that the one-handed shove attack on the laspistol in darktide can stop a leaping pox hound, and it's funny every time

Absurd contrived scenario for Fallout New Vegas: First, side with Caesar's Legion, save Caesar from the brain tumor. Immediately afterwards, switch to Yes Man then Speech 100 Lanius to get him to retreat. Force the really awkward meeting between Lanius and Caesar.

Taco Tuesday!

I'm gonna eat some tacos and it's Tuesday. I'm not particularly observant of the holiday

Podcasts and audiobooks presented by New Zealanders fundamentally do not work. Their voices are too relaxing. You end up falling asleep.

Yesterday's Mets game had no right to be that close. Why did the entire pitching staff have to get injured?!?

Talked with my mom about housing. She's coming around that the private market can't deliver, we talked about how there's already incentives in Canada up to $1 million for building housing (think like a 3 story walk up, would more or less cover it) but 25% of built units need to be at or below market rate. We talked about how CMHC has mostly faffed about with mortgage rates or down payment percentages or amortization periods for 30+ years and have been totally unable to deal with housing. We even talked a little about how the skilled labour "shortage" just ain't a thing - there was a time I was looking for an apprenticeship and no one would hire me, no one wanted a first year apprentice (they were happy with a 3rd or journeyman), one time I walked in to a boiler maker union apprenticeship with 100 people and not one of us made it to apprenticeship. They have grants for training AND wage subsidies (something ridiculous like covering 2/3rds of wage) but employers still don't want to train cause people can leave or they risk hiring someone who doesn't work out for one reason or another (doesn't have the head for it, wrong temperament, etc).

I feel like finally we can agree that the private market just can't deliver on at least ONE thing. It does make profits! But doesn't service needs.

Posting under a bunch of random shit and seeing who gets mad

Good morning, I hope Friedrich Merz puts a gun in his mouth

Capybara more like crappybarra. Anyone can balance a mandarin on their head

I have figured out why doctors go insane. Here is a translation of a real conversation:

1: Oh yeah I'm gonna do like 8 hours of dry then take a nap

2: Oh yeah I did like 12 hours of dry yesterday and two hours of wet

1: You benefit from wet?

2: Kind of. But mostly it's more fun to spot wet. Cozier, you know?

1: Wet is just a waste of time IMO (Each litter pronounced and emphasised). Plus there's way more people in dry

2: Yeah you don't have to fight to see anything in wet

I deep fried an egg today

Just got a new job. We have great benefits here at bringdownthegovernment.biz

It's gonna sound extremely privileged but I'll say it my checks can 6 lbs can of unsweeten applesauce is too big. If I open it I'll have to commit to making something within the same couple of days or it will go bad and I only brought this on myself. I got it since by volume it was cheaper than the smaller ones and a great egg substitute until I found ground flax seeds where are way better just because of shelf life and storage btw. I'll use it up this weekend making cookies and pancakes maybe a cake too idk it's gonna be delicious

Finished transcribing a song yippeeeeee! Usually I end up abandoning my transcriptions partway through, but this time I transcribed all the parts and did a full harmonic analysis. Feels super satisfying.

Burritos suck where I live. I don't think I've ever had a burrito where ai didn't think oh I'd prefer a falafel tbh
