I've watched my sister's 1 year old puppy for a couple weekends and can confirm, she's a handful and a half and consumes my entire weekend. Luckily, she's extremely cute. And also not mine.

for a website full of 39 year olds many of you do not remember the events of 2001 to 2004 very well, and those were only a couple of years ago.

The other day a woman at a bar introduced her dog to me as "Soup Dog, like the rapper" and I was fully content to believe there was some rapper I'd never heard of named Soup Dog. What a great name for a dog, and a rapper.

Incredible stuff from Cards Against Humanity, who is now building a monument to interfere with SpaceX.

Why do you keep calling Elon Musk “a sad little bitch with no friends”?

Great question! (1) He is sad, (2) he is a bitch, and (3) he has no friends.

Did Elon Musk spend his 47th birthday alone, with no friends?

Yes.

Did Elon Musk beg Jeffrey Epstein for an invitation to his island, but get rejected?

Yes.

You’re saying that even the world’s most infamous pedophile didn’t want to be Elon Musk’s friend?

Yes.

the Wikipedia entry for axolotls reads like a Cake song

Their heads are wide, and their eyes are lidless. Their limbs are underdeveloped and possess long, thin digits.

Ooo, ok, I've got some! Transmetropolitan Ender's Game Stranger in a Strange Land I think those are the only on my "definitely good" list by "definitely bad" people. Various other classic scifi books/authors are close to making the list, but if I start listing them to list gets too long quickly

I'm caught up on today's Tour de France stage and I'm starting to feel like collarbones aren't a good idea for professional cyclists

Now that we're all done with world cup, let me tell you about this thing called the Tour de France. It's on for another week!

Why is the sky in Somerville suddenly yellow? Are there wildfires nearby or something?

As a jew raised by brits in the southern US who now lives in new england, there's just too many options. This is going to be a hot take, but I don't like tea. Like, black tea. My parents have nearly disowned me for this, but it's just....not enjoyable to me?

Sounds like they cleared up whatever was the problem with the flight termination system and are on track to launch still #Artemis

Learning that the Artemis II crew will contain both the first person of color and the first woman to leave low earth orbit, and congrats to them on most successfully getting as far away as possible from here.
