- Currently caught in a customer service doom loop. I want a refund on a non-refundable hotel booking which sounds like an absurd request except for the tiny detail the THE HOTEL CANCELLED THE BOOKING.
- We gave my child a wallet with a single dollar bill to play with. She now has three dollars. I don't know where the other two came from. Help.
- College is wasted on the young. I used to skip classes. Grown adult me would kill to spend eight hours a day reading books and listening to lectures.
- I don't think JD Vance killed the Pope, I think meeting JD Vance probably drained the Pope's will to live. It's subtly different.
- The Supreme Court unanimously deciding you can't gulag people for literally no reason is genuinely shocking.
- My TikTok feed is covered in Kamala fancams. I've never seen anything like this (a thread)
00:00 - KPP is weirdly predictive 88: Bush 92: Clinton 96: Clinton 2000: Bush 2004: Kerry 2008: Obama 2012: Obama 2016: Clinton 2020: BidenKAMALA HARRIS NAMED WINNER OF NICKELODEON'S KIDS PICK THE PRESIDENT "KIDS' VOTE" POLL
- Replying to @JoePostinggThe National Guard apparently requestioned the property which is fine I guess, but I'm not paying for a hotel room I'm not allowed to sleep in.
- I think the reason Google "got worse" is basically just because forums died off. Forum posts were preserved in amber and easily crawlable. Now conversations are stored ephemerally and in walled gardens like Discord.
- John Fetterman becoming conservative after suffering brain damage feels a little too on the nose.
- Converting COBOL to Java is expensive and risky, but at least it will run slower.Social Security systems contain tens of millions of lines of code written in COBOL, an archaic programming language. Safely rewriting that code would take years—DOGE wants it done in months. wired.com/story/doge-reb…
- The Mayor of New York SHOULD be too left wing for national politics. It would be stupid if the mayor of a rich liberal city was trying to appeal to Bucks County swing voters.
