I’d kick your ass if I didn’t spend all three of my wishes on churros from 7-11. :/

“you knew how to make a website from basic markup? Okay grandpa, let’s get you to bed.”

You are correct that office jobs are less physically strenuous, but they come with their own unique mental horrors. Nobody at a factory spends a week working on a report, only for their boss to decide on a Friday afternoon that everything is wrong and needs to be redone by Monday with no overtime pay, or any opportunity to say ‘no, I can’t take that job.’

Especially with Work from Home, there is no separation between the stress of needing to perform and the relaxation associated with home. You are on, ALL THE TIME, and most people who work at offices for salaries are expected to be available to chat / meet at any time of day, including at 2 or 3 AM if you are working with Indians or Hong Kongers.

Yeah I am not destroying my knees, but my self-confidence and mental health are absolute dogshit.

Don’t be classist, folks. If someone needs to work to survive, they are more alike you than they are not like you. Separating ourselves from each other only serves the wealthiest among us.

So. Much. Hot. Honey. Lately.

It is everywhere.

It was because aspics were meant to ‘contain’ stuff, not just be gross, savory Jell-O. Like, a traditional aspic salad would have various fruits suspended in it.

I think when gelatin became common in grocery stores, people were just all about the novelty. If you read cookbooks from the 50s that have these recipes in them, you see a commonality — people were just chuffed as chips that they could make a cake that jiggles lol.

Are you describing cops?

To be fair, ‘artificial’ literally just means ‘made through skill,’ in opposition to natural, meaning ‘occurs as-is.’ I agree with you that there is a better word out there than ‘artificial’ for these spicy autocorrects.

Just as someone who was dumped onto the church and community because my parents were both Christian fundamentalists AND tired of parenting, I can genuinely disagree with the notion that ‘no conservative says that.’ It was said to me all the time as a way to justify their total lack of interest in me.

White Lady in Suburbs’ “It takes a village to raise a child.”

Also White Lady in Suburbs: “Hello, police?!?! I see an unaccompanied child and I’m afraid they’re gonna kill me!”

Cup of water 😩😂

Business owners out here thinking that a Pepsi might be too decadent for a dumpster diver.

I am so sad that people I know (not you, OP) are using the phrase ‘vibe coding’ seriously now, like it’s some new discipline of coding. It’s a facetious term! The joke is that it’s not real coding! Stop!!!

Ah, well, then I stand corrected. I was just looking for an excuse to drop an old timey comic anywho.

Comics from 1900 - 1938 were fucking amazing. I guess because fewer people could read back then, they needed gags in strips to really only exist on a visual level. I’m sure people read gags out then showed the picture to a group of workers or travelers.

Here’s a sheet of one-panel from 1910. I think these were by Rube Goldberg, before he did his machine illustrations.

“Beat your swords into plowshares,” says Isaiah. Yet, here we are, with congregations of people who feel that “there’s nothing wrong with being a soldier.”

God’s first commandment? Yeah apparently that doesn’t mean shit if the other party is a stinky brownskin. I do not see a legal addendum on the Ten Commandments.

“1. Thou Shalt Not Kill ***†”

***† only in participating stores, offer good til Labor Day, see appendix for list of people it’s totally cool to kill

Can’t we just combine Austria and Hungary again? Everybody loved that.

Well, except Bosnian Serbs I guess.

Homie looks like the heel of a foot. Putin sure knows how to pick the pretty ones.

I think this meme might be 25 years old.

That’s the flag of Transylvania. It’s where trans people were invented.

Sir, this is a Wendy’s.

You gotta understand that Elon as a business person has never been just Elon — it has always been Elon and Kimbal. They are thick as thieves, friend, there isn’t much humanity to be sqwozed here.
