How do you navigate the sounds? We try this approach from time to time only for everyone to become overwhelmed by everyone else's noise.

My wife just wrapped up the first book and was telling me about the parts she read today and was like "And then Carl got really angry" and I thought "Oh man... Carl hasn't even started getting angry yet."

I keep arguing that the large hadron collider really is unmaking realities all the time, and that's why reality keeps getting more and more absurd. Because the more realistic ones are already toast.

I wasn't prepared for that combination of words.

Text from the announcement of Grammarly hiring their general counsel stating "It's a role that will help us navigate business risks with precision."

Oof. Doesn't sound like it helped navigate those business risks with precision.

Wholeheartedly agree with Witches as a jumping on point.

I wholeheartedly second that recommendation. Listening to the audiobooks with my son now and it's been a lot of fun watching him get more and more into it.

Awww, that's an awesome nerd surprise!

that start picking up a little later in the first book and have continued clear through the end of the 7th.

I'll say re-reading it an knowing where it's going I had an easier time with the first book than I did on my original read through.

I didn't vibe with the early part of the first book, and there are occasional moments throughout where a joke really doesn't land with me.

But I love the gear shifts of "Oh this is a very silly story about silly things" to "Oh this is a story about grief and love and the horrors of capitalism"

It always feels impossible to get a straight answer out of them about anything. Bwuh.

I guess they're banking on more people wanting or needing a new phone enough they set their discount on fire?

before the 2/3 reduction. Functionally this means I will not upgrade my phone before the date it's paid off because I'd lose hundreds of dollars.

At the end of 9 months I will have given them $100 and change. Why do they want to get that money in 9 payments instead of one payment right now?

Today in things that don't make any fucking sense to me.

I have 9 more payments left on my phone. Each month, the monthly payment on my device is reduced by 2/3s because of whatever deal was happening when I upgraded my phone.

If I want to pay off my phone, I need to pay the full dollar amount,

My favorite pizza place used to have a chicken parm stuffed pizza. They took it off the menu but would still make it if I called and asked for another couple years.

Silvermoon is an excellent city to idle in.

I had some real feelings about that, and then I got them and it's so good. I don't even wear my contacts anymore because it's become so seamless to use the bifocals when I'm reading.

Is it The Last Star in the Void?

How about a D?

I'd like to buy a vowel. Can I get an A?

I don't know how anyone is supposed to be responsible for their words when a hot goth is going on about fingering them.

I didn't get added to a meeting last week because my colleagues thought that people from two other teams were being too petty to each other, and that I would be unable to resist having words with them.

They had broken out their popcorn and didn't want me to end the show.

And if turned out pretty damn good. Any meal that multiple autistic children make happy noises about is a fucking win in my house.

I made a really lazy dinner tonight. It was Lasagna flavored hamburger helper. But I added a can of diced tomatoes and onion and some extra Italian herb blend, and grated some fresh Parmesan on it.

That does sound really nice.

Happy international women's day to all women tall or short, thick or thin, cis or trans! #iwd #international #womens #day

more aware of the potential optics.

I would not expect the customer service department to be allowed to give a more explicit answer than that? Like they aren't lawyers and the chance that they break an actual lawyer away from whatever they're working on to draft the response is pretty low.

You're right, there's an opportunity to be
