Drove past you guys today and waved. Wasn't sure proper horn etiquette and didn't want to come across like i was against the protest.

Ooh, swedish fish are objectively the best gummy candy. How are the hearts ones?

Any transition tips? Hoping to switch to induction in the future :-)

I know there are some people getting blocked because people confuse them with the automated debate bots and that should probably be a lesson to them

I remember watching old Star Trek episodes in high def for the first time and seeing the makeup and practical effects not remotely hold up. Some old media does much better in potato quality

Seriously, parasocial media can lead some people down weird and unhealthy paths. I hope you feel free to contain as many multitudes as you'd like

I imagine when people vaccinate it increases GDP with less time off needed and lowers uninsured medical costs. I'm sure a health economist could back that up with real facts, but would make sense to me to pay those folks who benefit society rather than enrich another oligarch

As a recording engineer, I want to make sure that we all understand that echo chambers create unbelievably rich, immersive reverb that has enriched your experience for decades.

That's a much-needed starter pack, hopefully someone will get on it

Delicious, but some foods are far more photogenic than others, lol. Bet it was amazing!

Does that taste as amazing as it looks? I think I need to plan a trip to Philly asap

I did have an account named Mara Wilson Private that copied the actual Mara Wilson profile post by post and started trying to chat with me, but was very easily recognized as a bot and admins deleted it pretty soon after I reported it

I don't really have any answers to the problem (and maybe even calling it a problem is an incorrect value judgement), but it's something I'm thinking about quite a bit.

It really made some of the articles right after the election of people searching "Why wasn't Biden on my ballot" and similar stories about low-(politics)information voters make a lot more sense. It's so hard to notice being in an information bubble these days.

I've taken the past week off Reddit due to exhaustion from trolls in comments. Spent 3-5 days pretty much completely offline and it's been wild how completely politics/bait-headline free normal life is without it.

Same! they were such a fun quick read, I devoured them when they came out. Appreciate the candor, this might be one that I wait to see what people say when the series is done.

I haven't caught the series yet, but loved the books. For anyone that read it first, how does it compare? I feel like game of thrones seasons 5-8 broke me, and I need reassurances

The secret of ‘Blue Zones’ where people reach 100? Fake data, says academic University College London researcher is on a mission to debunk shoddy research into the world’s oldest people.

“Humpty Dumpty had a great fall” followed by four panels of Humpty Dumpty enjoying fall activities

A meme, two geese on opposite sides of a person on the ground “I'M BEING SILENCED FOR MY OPINIONS” “WHICH ONES” “WHICH ONES MOTHERFUCKER”

I knew this would come in handy again.

balloon animal "giraffe" attempt with too long of a tail and body

Instructions on how to make a balloon animal giraffe

First attempt making a balloon animal with the family... I think the kit's instructions would have worked better if they had specified the balloon length required to make the proportions equal, but chalk it up to a learning experience. Sorry to unleash my giraffe/poodle hybrid upon the world
