I make the face back.

Holy crap I've never seen such an unnecessarily escalated situation in my life. Just look at all the chaos going on by the end of that video, and for what, because the band needed 2 extra minutes to finish their set?

Divorce the gym and hit your lawyer.

so long as the ear shaped icecream never stops flowing.

I spent way too long trying to understand what the heck this was a euphemism for.

He's one of the few politicians acting like a human being instead of a mouthpiece for party/donors.

Good timing, recently started watching Hot Mess House and really want to figure out how to organize my apartment without damaging the walls (Command strips aren't allowed).

I would love to see him do an interview with one of the artists he snubbed and see which one is more articulate.

I like to imagine you go around the internet leaving this comment whenever you understand a joke.

Ayo what is up with people advocating for rumble as though it's a one-for-one alternative for YouTube without mentioning all the...conservative slant? Are they hoping people won't notice that every video is whinging about women and minorities in media?

My bad, am I mixing up inflation and cost-of-living? I'm trying to understand the economy jargon better.

The point still stands that the rate of inflation is down but we still have to deal with that long period of time AKA 2022 where it didn't dip below 7.5%.

 

My partner is into DS9 and suggested we watch some last night. For some reason episode 1 was not available on Amazon Prime.(?) We watched Past Prologue and A Man Alone. As someone who is only barely familiar with the Star Trek universe, here are my thoughts:

  • Sisko is a fantastic leader and also terrifies me. His smile makes me uneasy. "Go over my head again, and I'll serve yours on a platter."

  • Kira's morality is super questionable and I'm amazed they didn't kick her off the station after episode 2.

  • Bashir is a dork and also needs to take a hint and leave Dax alone. Clearly they aren't interested.

  • I do love Dax as a sort of early mainstream media conversation starter on gender. The Trill overall are just a brilliant way to frame the idea of how gender and sex work.

  • It's rough seeing Odo so accustomed to hatred. When he just dips behind a glass door to watch as a mob call for his death...

I'm surprised by the level of dysfunction in the crew. I sort of always saw Star Trek as a bunch of Space Paladins that always did the right thing but in DS9 everyone has their own motives and interests and it's super interesting to watch them come together. I think I'll keep watching and see where things go.
