Trying to learn? Practice more than you learn. "I can DO this" is far more impressive than "I learned this" and, it's far more practical. Get your hands dirty, build stuff, nothing teaches you (CSS or whatever you're learning) better than using it, over and over, effectively.

I know you're trying to be hip @oldnavy but, seriously, why does every single blasted one of your emails have to encourage me to buy clothes for the "fam" F the fam, I just want some comfy tshirts and cargo pants FOR ME.

HEY DOJ: Donald Trump conducted a summit with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu. This meeting took place at Mar-a-Lago while Trump was a private citizen. The Logan Act (1 Stat. 613, 18 U.S.C. § 953, enacted January 30, 1799) is a United States federal law that criminalizes the negotiation of a dispute between the United States and a foreign government by an unauthorized American citizen. The intent behind the Act is to prevent unauthorized negotiations from undermining the government's position.

Every time PBrewster gives me a RideOn in @GoZwift, I think it's @pagetpaget I don't know if she's ever even used the app, but her consistent support has been inspirational 😀

Re-watching The Walking Dead again. I'd somehow forgotten how much I actively dislike Lori and Dale (who never actually DO anything but somehow think they're perfectly positioned to tell everyone else what they should do.) Still enjoying it though 😀

In my entire history, statistically, if I say "f**k, X" and you want to guess what X is, you'd be well off if you went with either "J.K. Rowling" or "Uncle Bob Martin". Seriously, you've a 50/50 chance, I really don't waste a f on anyone else.

Finally watched the Barbie movie and my only question is "what the hell was Ice Spice doing in Nicki Minaj's song?" I mean, not only was every moment with Ice shittier, but ever single second of Ice was a second of "Not Nicki." Movie: great Nicki: spectacular

My favorite trend of 2023 is YouTube influencers "reacting" to old George Carlin clips. The mental gymnastics they go through whilst internally laughing their asses off and externally saying "he said it not me" so they don't get demonitized is just ... precious.

Listening to the Detective Kim Stone crime thrillers by Angela Marsons. They are excellent! My one quibble is that no one is just a man or woman, young man or young woman, everyone is a male or a female. It feels weird and slightly offputting.

I've played Blizzard games what seems like forever (happily, mind you) but every so often, no matter the game, you end up with a quest where you have to escort a "slow walker" To get my mount in D4, I had to escort a meandering geezer and his camel through a sandstorm ... 😠

Unpopular opinion: every dipshit with twenty bucks shouldn't get to entertain their offspring by terrorizing my dog with fireworks 2 to 3 times a year. I'm honestly surprised that there aren't more "that was one bottle rocket too many" violent encounters every year.

F @PrimeVideo for putting Shiny Happy People in my queue without so much as a trigger warning. I'll watch proper horror all the live-long day, but keep the pedo shit out of my feed.
