The cognitive dissonance between Minnesotas intense hatred of ICE and general support for Klobuchar constantly flummoxes me
Would be really cool if our likely-to-be-governor would come out saying something against this. But alas.

Prison industry giant CoreCivic announced Monday that it has finalized a five-year federal contract to reopen a long-shuttered prison in Appleton that will now hold immigrant detainees.
Computer: say it. say the words. Me: can we not do this today? Computer: we do this every day. say it. Me: (*sigh) I would like to stay logged in on this device Computer: (*chuckling)
one of the many reasons people justifiably love kwik trip
One of the inarguable Good Things about Windows 11 on my laptop is its entirely unpredictable behavior when I a) close the lid, b) unplug the power, c) unplug a monitor or d) all of the above. Love not knowing when my laptop is going to shut down, nap or just throw a tantrum
Computer touchers are like a trickster god to tech bros. The real nerds convince them to fund their startup for 5 years at ridiculous evaluations but the final product sucks and has no market but they finally release the new ultimate Arch distro
part of the charm is everyone dropping big money on these setups implicitly acknowledges the software is mostly useless and the hardware will be out of date almost overnight. real computer touchers know it's about love of the game, not actually getting anything done
this is a good idea but terrible on the seeding

Spent way too much time preparing for and worrying about a product training presentation for (looks at invite)... 2 people
The classic oreo (doublestuf) is the perfect snack cookie and everyone else is running for 3rd place (the BTS oreo fucking slaps and is my 2nd place rn).
These "we have made an AI so powerful" warnings are straight-up advertisements, btw. No different than "we have made an Oreo so delicious all other snack artists must relent."
I'm not pro-AI but I'm anti my annoying fucking colleagues generating 5 page requirement docs that they didn't think through and clearly didn't read themselves fwding them to me and my boss saying 'what do you think?' making me look like the asshole if I don't take their slop seriously.
We need to crack down HARD on people running red lights and stop signs to reestablish the norm that you will actually stop for them.
I've seen more people just straight-up run red lights in San Diego since Covid than I had in my entire life up to that point. There's essentially zero traffic enforcement in Southern California.
The fact that some dorks haven't automated meal planning via LLM and integrated online ordering is frankly damning of every one of the techno-utopianists and you should go ahead and make it because I'm too lazy to write a grocery list and go shopping every week
Walking around the block just to get outside and every gap in shade feels like a canyon between habitable spaces, like you're temporarily walking on the surface of mercury.
Incredible the work John Wilson is doing but also bummer that more wealthy folks haven't stepped up. www.startribune.com/john-wilson-...

What the hell is happening on this website today you can't just greet me with this first thing in the morning
my answer for frisbee naan vs javelin baguette depends on whether we're using baguette tradition, baguette classique, or if we can harken back to the baguette von Blücher, a specialized and now archaic hardened sourdough popularized by napoleonic mercenaries for its formidable aerodynamic properties
Somebody ran around Longfellow and painted up all these temporary traffic signs and it rocks
if we're going to do follow-up more-ethnically-authentic versions of the Odyssey let me add my name to the Jason Mantzoukas Odysseus petition
so much of human existence on the micro and macro level can be summarized with “whoops”
i regret to announce that i am changing my position re global financial capitalization somewhat from “abolish the stock market” to “the stock market must never be allowed to close. if walmart is 24/7 wallstreet is 24/7”
