A dying restaurant near me serves dying patrons; all over 70 and car dealership owners and the like. Sometimes I find myself with half an hour to kill and have walked in for a beer. I was reading this thread and a patron next to me spied this picture and commented on it approvingly. It was perfect.

I hate that the sparkle icon is shorthand for AI. They want us to think it’s magic. Fuck you!!! Magic is when you lose a glob of mustard from your sandwich but it doesn’t land on you. When you win at 20 questions. Sparkles belong to Liberace. A baby’s smiling eyes. I will put you in the ground!!!!!!
At first I was like “German Engineer Brain (derogatory)” but when I read about his suit against NYPD, I had to grudgingly accept there’s a little bit of “German Engineer Brain (laudatory)” going on here.
“WRONG!”

I could see Trump in the 1980s doing this as a humiliation bit but now I’m not so sure.
“WRONG!”

the Forever Wars are still underused for tragicomedy, honestly, but 'Arabic interpreter gets deployed to Afghanistan' is a good starting premise
Three panel comic. Panel 1: three witches stand around a cauldron while one of them stirs. Panel 2: one of the witches adds a scoop of pre workout into the pot. Panel 3: the three witches are getting absolutely shredded in the gym.

At a certain point Democratic Reps and Senators need to nut up and start exercising the Speech or Debate privilege by reading these “briefings” out on the House and Senate floor
Tbqh I assume that the archive plans for securing hormuz assume things like "actual state of war that there is at least some confidence in lasting a while" and "understanding that you will take casualties" and "ground forces" and "allies" and woke shit like that that doesnt make Content for Twitter
Portions of an attempt to return an item to Amazon. The interface is the iOS app and it displays a series of prompts (presented by Amazon) and the user responses (that I provided): Let's get started.

For example, was it too small for the rice cooker, too large to fit properly, or did it not align with the heating element? Didn't fit OK, was there anything inaccurate about the product description or images? If so, please describe.

Saw this modified Threads (that still exists!?) post and I get that the original reads “1) the Pedophile Branch” but the bowdlerized version below works better for likely unintended reasons: The “PDF-file” branch is the operative, load bearing part of functioning government and must prevail
Sicko shit
Of that I have zero doubts. You’ll make it, but it’s a bumpy-ass road
You’re not gonna like subjecting yourself to that second option
