I watched some "Housewives" product this year and I have a pitch. Quick and earnest apologies, AND immediate acceptance of even imperfect apologies. Have they tried that? It would really calm things down.

That’s just a challenge

Of all the things to admit on the internet, “I don’t know how bananas work” is one of the funniest

Gotta love the “or stocks” part. Like Gemini realized its first answer was nuts so it tried to wedge in a better one.

I loved this story as a kid, reading and rereading it. We’ve reached the day it’s set.

Today is "Soft Rains Day" for those who remember this haunting 1950 Ray Bradbury piece. It's classic Bradbury, eerily accurate w/ its predictions in some respects (looking at you, Alexa), and well worth a few moments of your day to read if you're so inclined.

Uncanny is still nearly $10k from their BASE goal - the amount that would allow them to keep publishing incredible SFF fiction and poetry. Please consider boosting or supporting them if able to keep Uncanny alive!

I have seen a growing number of complaints about MS Word's grammar suggestions. It just told me to change "an afterthought" to "afterthought" as if it should be a verb instead of a noun. No. Also why is it still trying to get me to change "public school" to "public-school"?

Reading about Watergate raised my curiosity about this man, who played an interesting role and has perhaps the best Wikipedia disambiguation ever.

Nigel Farage just took a question from a 'journalist' at his press conference, who turned out to be his former chief adviser Raheem Kassam, who asks him why the media are being so unfair to him

If I had perhaps carefully palpated this Doritos bag before purchase, I might’ve picked one that wasn’t all tiny crumb-like fragments.

How to look good on the beach (leave the sarong at home)

I returned the new HP printer. Mostly because my old printer woke up and insisted it's still good to go. Also, the new printer had a small flimsy paper tray, total disinterest in hooking up to wifi, and some kind of "ai" feature I refused to try to understand. House feels better without it here.

I hope Musk makes an historically accurate Spider-Man movie asap.

Can we please stop reposting those 'mugshots' of women that are like 'lady does some absurd thing that sounds cool as shit' so people are like 'let women have hobbies' which I first clocked as fake when one of them supposedly took place at the mall I worked at as a teenager it's all slop!

never thought short form video would be able to capture a type of humor i can only describe as “the far side-esque” but this comes close.

I didn't realize until too late that my new swimsuit was extra large. I was swimming in it. #DadJoke

So I’ve started Pride and Prejudice, and already I feel bad for Mrs Bennet.

I wonder if Biden still has it in him to give an articulate and composed eulogy. I bet he does, but how can we know for sure?
