nothing is better than buying a shirt on a whim, completely forgetting you did it, and having it show up a week later

Typewriter restoration content incoming... no batteries no screen no feeds no algorithms no agents Just a bunch of springs and some type bars. Please enjoy my dangerous rig for holding the mainspring while I replace a drawband on this 1960s machine
Close up view of the main spring drum of an old manual typewriter. It's being held in place by forceps and a screwdriver bracing it while a bright blue thread is being threaded through carefully.

I can't begin to describe how tiny the hole is, or how violently that tensioned drum will spin if you let it go

I spend an inordinate amount of time wandering round the house doing Columbo impressions. "Just one last thing, Mrs Dishwasher, there's something that's been bothering me... this spoon right here. Its been through 3 cycles now... it's still not clean. I just don't understand it."

letting your cat drink from a mug Positive outcomes: - cute - they really seem to enjoy it - encourages healthy levels of hydration Negative outcomes: - rude about everything you drink forever

prediction: Dems will get 2 years of congressional control, but will refuse to wield that power or hold anyone accountable. The 2028 Dem nominee will flail around trying to pick up the votes of people who will never vote for them, leaving an opening for Ken Paxton to become president

It really gives the game away when the anti trans orgs are calling the election of the neo nazi party in Germany a "glimmer of hope."
​A screenshot of an online article headline from "Inspecting Gender" by Genspect. The main heading reads: "Germany: A Glimmer of Hope for Sex Realists?" Below the title, the summary text asks: "Is the victory of the AfD in Germany a dark day for democracy or a glimmer of hope for sex realists? By David Allison." The bottom metadata displays the Genspect logo, "5 hours ago," and a "Listen" audio option button. In the top right corner, there is a teal "Subscribe" button alongside a circular profile avatar.

In Ohio for a wedding and someone said "we've always had $4 gas" when explaining why 47 isn't responsible for any of this Dems should not put an ounce to energy into the mythical conservative swing voter

my love and respect for Larry David grows all the time pagesix.com/2026/09/22/h...
After the dressing down — which ended up having the crowd in tears, of laughter and joy, the agent writes — Emanuel recalls, “Seating Larry at the same table as Elon Musk: Not my best decision.” 
As soon as the “Curb Your Enthusiasm” star sees the Tesla mogul,”he starts cursing, yelling, saying things many people would like to say to Elon” about the SpaceX’s leader’s politics. 
David was “right up in Elon’s face, before the dinner starts,” and, guests had to separate them.

I don't think anything could make me excuse the poor leadership from Jeffries and Schumer. If it's a hostage negotiation, it went like this: "Please don't kill the hostages now. In exchange, you can kill them later" The appetite for an expanded court is giving me hope, though.

I hope that some day in the future, people will look upon the drive through coffee shop the same way we now regard people who lived with chamber pots and city cesspools. obscene and inhumane

They caved and reopened the government after a pointless 40 day shut down with zero concessions other than a worthless promise from the GOP I'm not saying Dems will always be this way. They just have been my entire life. I look forward to change. We don't just need more dems; we need better ones.

Don't get me wrong, I still vote dem in every election because they do need the seats, but I just don't expect a single good thing to come out of it at the national level.

E.B. White established this in 1949! Move on already!
Screenshot from E.B. White's essay "Here is New York": "There are roughly three New Yorks. There is, first, the New York of the man or woman who was born here, who takes the city for granted and accepts its size and its turbulence as natural and inevitable. Second, there is the New York of the commuter —the city that is devoured by locusts each day and spat out each night. Third, there is the New York of the person who was born somewhere else and came to New York in quest of something. Of these three trembling cities the greatest is the last— the city of final destination, the city that is a goal. It is this third city that accounts for New York's high-strung disposition, its poetical deportment, its dedication to the arts, and its incomparable achievements. Commuters give the city its tidal restlessness; natives give it solidity and continuity; but the settlers give it passion."

The typeface of "Computer Rage" in this photo is "Data 70", by foundry Letraset
Old book or pamphlet cover reading "LETRASET USA" in an incredibly 70s looking lines and curving stripes font, with part of the "U" forming an overline. Under the overline, it reads in a very stark sans, "Graphic Art Products Catalog".

Source: mister bite AKA Basil AKA Bei Bei Adopted this NYC street cat a few months before The Adonis Story began. He's become the most affectionate cat ever, yet still yearns for the bite. He only cares about cuddle and bite. His favorite toy is his bite cactus
Almost completely white cat with a small number of distinct black spots, looking comfortable on his blanket. He looks cute but possibly dangerous due to the pinkness in his paw beans and ears. He looks sweet but also wound up. The level of danger in approaching him is unclear

It's so easy not to accept the narrative of the world the right builds. They don't even have to take a courageous stance! If you can't rebuke the imagined reality of kitty litter in schools and forced surgeries, how are you going to be able to do ANYTHING to fix things
