Just had my performance review at work and apparently on Monday they’ll be killing me with hammers :/ I talked to the HR guy and he said it’s legal because it was in my contract
i really wish nerds would stop telling people switching to linux to use weird shit like cachyos and then being surprised when they have issues. a newbie to linux should just use mint, maybe bazzite if they're a gamer.
they gotta make a caffeine free Red Bull. I love that flavor but I don't need all that caffeine
It’s wild that the guy that made Lilo & Stitch, How to Train Your Dragon, and Wild Robot, some of the best children’s movies ever, also made The Croods, which was awful. I wonder what happened
i've seen like 4 posts mentioning something about spreadsheets and i still don't know what anyone is talking about. what this tells me is that i need to start blocking more people so i don't see those 4 posts and can remain blissfully unaware of the nonsense
watched the first two episodes of the new ted lasso season and my thoughts are (1) it's as good as it was when it ended, the writers basically picked right back up, and (2) when, after season 3, i thought "idk if i really need more ted lasso", i was right. Fine show, but no longer interesting to me
oh i'm not sure i like these. they're kinda distracting, especially when the window isn't focused

Camp Miasma is incredible, they really just said “let’s use 80s slashers to talk about the transgender lesbian experience” and then nailed it
just had to admit defeat and increase the scaling on my monitor 😔 we've lost 250 vertical pixels, rest in peace pixels

i want to read more comics, please recommend your favorite comic books too me! no superheroes, and indie stuff is preferred!
I’ve seen several local groups come out with “anyone but cis dudes (ABCD)” policies lately and it really reminds me how many people just want Gender Binary But Woke. I understand what this ABCD thing is going for and why it sounds like a good idea, but it runs into problems immediately.

I’m in a CPR/first aid class right now and going insane because the trainers are getting basic shit wrong. Like giving exactly the opposite instructions as they’re supposed to.
maybe some people are born gay but i chose this. you're here by chance, i'm here for the love of the game.

i think it's so funny that sophie cunningham went "please stop talking about my transphobia and focus on my basketball playing" and then flopped worse than anyone in WNBA history. it's perfect.
just found out that they sell these things called journals, and it's like a place where you can put your thoughts, but it's not like the internet where everyone can see them. it's like a place to have thoughts and feelings that you don't have to share. pretty cool stuff
the take i get the most pushback on but i fully believe is that homeschooling and private schools should be banned. they're treating children like property, where parents decide what their kid gets to learn and experience, but children are people and have the right to a proper education.
people will be like "well homeschooling worked great for me" and like sure, ok, I don't doubt it, but religious conservatives are raising swarms of children who can't read and don't know what the sun is and I think we may need to return to a seatbelt-mandate-style solution to this issue
Sophie Cunningham's -28 in today's game is the worst single-game +/- in a win in WNBA history. #WNBA
this is true!! sports are like art: they exist to be fun, to develop a craft, to entertain, to move people emotionally. in both cases, rich fucks have hijacked the natural passion people have around them to 1) generate a ton of money and 2) drive wedges between people who should be on the same side
Fairness In Women's Sports shit is disheartening to me for a lot of reasons. but one that I really need people to chew on is: sports do not actually matter that's what they're for they exist to not matter the overton window is so fucked that we're treating *games* as if they're worth any of this
