Oh no indeed! This is genuinely the most tempting thing I've seen that might get me to go to the US again.

I'd take a people ferry to get a food ferry!!

Ooooh just remembered the kaCHUNK when you pulled it out on our machine when I was growing up. A very satisfying sound!

I filmed an interview with Chuck Lorre about The Big Bang Theory years ago & he described a weekly show as a train that's running and you've got to air a show at each stop, whether it's the best you can do or not

It made me a feel a lot more charitable towards weak episodes of 22 ep a year series.

Well that's bleak as fuck.

You don't have to love all of these movies, but you do have to understand that a studio that makes Sinners and One Battle and Mickey 17 and Wuthering Heights and The Bride and Weapons grasps its responsibility to filmmaking and its own history and tradition in a way that David Ellison does not.

I was at work today and someone asked me if I ran the place. I was like, well I work here and run some parts of some things. And then they said "you should run it all"

It was very sweet and made me feel great

Obvious ai manipulation on the left. Original photo by David Batcheller on the right. Look at the wings, feather shape, head, neck and bill shape, lack of tail etc. This is way more than a filter and absolutely destroys the joy and wonder of the original.

So loads of people are sharing an obvious ai "glow up" of an actual photo. I never share ai stuff even to dunk, but in this case I'm sharing a comparison to show the problem. We have to stand against this slop at every level or it becomes normalised. They want us to stop caring. See alt text.

I like this as an idiom.

"How you doing today?"

"Oh you know, still hand-sewing a family of ghosts"

To white people entering into political movements,

If you are someone that people would benefit from listening to, a leader will ask you to speak. That's it. Listen. Learn. Prove you ARE the exception. If you are cool, you'll get the respect you're due, but no more than you are due. Find humility.

I bought special sneaker cleaner for a pair of my white shoes, and thought they looked so much better.

Went to work wearing them, got asked "oh hey, are you going to get that cleaner you were talking about?"

Devastating.

Right, like you have to regularly clean them?? Absolute madness

When I lived in the UK, a Black friend and I once had the most frustrating conversation with a work colleague who grew up in Cyprus, who insisted that he'd experienced more racism than any Black British man. It was genuinely baffling.

Very fair! Good luck with it!

234 - Janome The Janome 234 is a quality entry level model offered at a fantastic price! This mechanical machine features 15 built-in stitches and a four-step buttonhole. Dial pattern selection, adjustable stitch ...

I have a Janome, and I really like it. I've had it for 15+ years with no issues.

Mine is a step up from this, but this is a good entry level machine: www.janome.ca/product/234/

I remember Canada losing to a shootout in the 94 gold medal game. It was brutal.

My one consolation in this game is that neither Tkachuk scored a goal.

The drunk uncle theory.

You don’t argue with the casually homophobic uncle at Thanksgiving dinner to change his mind; you argue so that the closeted cousin at the kids table knows there’s safe people and better possibilities out there

I have an audible yikes reaction every time I see one. Doubly so at night.

I was on a work trip to LA when the Rob Ford video broke and it was so weird to have a Canadian mayor all over the news.

I'd say you want to keep the length (or trim it however much) but lose some volume. You probably want some light layers.

That's what CP has going on in this pic
