Yeah i didn’t see anything like that in my grocery store. Had to go with an approximation.

Really? I’ve gotten notes that these are the wrong sprinkles and I haven’t used nearly enough.

The Aussies on Threads are much angrier about my attempt.

Thank you.

Was pretty great, tbh. Sprinkles add a nice texture.

I’m gonna do the thing where you make food from each location of the F1 races this year β€” but only extremely low effort is allowed. Today’s Australian Grand Prix delicacy:

Honestly, it’s simply the biggest one. So when I want bonus coffee I choose it. I choose it a lot.

7 I think. 4 identical white ones, one podcast-themed, one art history-themed, and one Cape Cod-themed.

I need someone who is in the know to explain to me the insanity of a typical men's cologne commercial. If you're in advertising do you get assigned to one of these as a reward? As punishment? Are there folks who just specialize in these fever dreams? How does it work?!

Polymarket is the entropy accelerator we never needed. Headlong into increasingly stupid and brazen corruption! Let’s ride this insider trading/politics combo into annihilation!

It’s getting tough to keep track of which tech companies have catastrophically crossed my own personal principles and values redlines.

Feels good to know I’d basically need to get off the grid to live in accordance with my values. Cognitive dissonance as all-encompassing undercurrent, ftw.

i would immediately dismiss as β€œtoo stupid to even consider” a fictional universe with betting markets on war that are being gamed by those actually running the war

How did anyone think that video of the McDonald's CEO "eating" the new burger was a good idea to share publicly? I cringed so hard watching it I think I pulled a muscle in my back.

Holy shit you aren't kidding. That man basically kissed "the product" rather than take a bite out of it.

I love Carrot so much it's gonna have a tough time knocking it out of my routine, I think. Will be keeping an eye on it, though.

Would love there to be more people dreaming and fantasizing about a competent/functional legislative branch than a more retributive executive branch.

Agreed. The icon has not grown on me, though.

I secretly gathered some snow off our balcony and crafted it into a small and not-too-tightly-packed snowball which I lovingly hit my wife with at 10:30 PM while she stood in the bathroom brushing her teeth. Just in case you were wondering what it's like being married to me (a delight).

New things that I don't think I'll ever get on board with even if that means I turn into an old fuddy duddy yelling at clouds:

1. Prediction markets for everything
2. Sports gambling via apps
3. Offloading all entertainment decisions to algorithms designed to keep my attention
