Eehhhh I don’t really want to pay a markup and shipping costs for an item that costs 79¢.

Is there some kind of global shortage of DMC 310 embroidery floss or is the Michael’s near me just terrible at knowing what to stock? This is like the third straight time they’ve been out of plain ol’ black.

He is generally very smart but he simply can’t figure out laps! To make up for it, he comes to wherever you are and screams for love several times a day.

Bertie is huge and has never really been able to figure out laps.

A black cat lying belly-up in the diamond shape created by two bent human legs. His back feet are toward the camera and his front paws are folded down. He looks like he’s in the middle of a sit-up, so his head is up and he’s looking at the camera with bright green eyes. His expression is like, “Is this anything?”

If I have never watched or played or thought about Resident Evil, would I like this? The trailer looked fun but I have never engaged with this franchise.

The beauty of the Saus at Bow Market is that you can order from multiple places, so you can pair your frites with, say, arepas or banh mi from other restaurants.

“Find some fucking hustle.” No. One day you will be dead and you will not get the high score for doing the most. Do enough and let yourself off the hook for the rest.

Your neighbor is outside in the dark doing a lot of stuff with an electric saw and duct tape. Do you: A. Ignore it. It’s probably not a body, let’s not get the cops involved. B. Ignore it. It’s probably a body and you don’t need to get yourself on a murderer’s shit list.

Real questions I have asked my cats this week: “OK, who started it?” “Could we compromise on still attacking my foot at 3 a.m. but reducing the claw involvement?” “Are you huffing paint?” And the classic: “Why are you sticky?”

Uuuuh, like medium gory? I think? Sorta hard to know how skewed my opinion might be. Some people (and cats) definitely get ate, but a lot of the runtime is about avoiding dinosaurs. Like 30% more gory than Jurassic Park maybe?

He is doing seemingly legit power-company-type work on the lines outside, but also his flashlight sure did shine right at my face.

I don’t always close my curtains at night because, you know, who’s looking in my second-floor windows? But today I got the answer to that question: a power company employee on a cherry picker.

Given that both the site and the writer have no real track record that I can see, I find it kinda hard to believe that people are giving him these quotes that could get them fired. Also, like, are any publishers paying $50-75 an hour for CEs? Why is “about” listed three times in the footer?

Is this, uuuuuh, definitely real? I sent this to a friend, who flagged that this place has basically no publishing history and the email domain is @AdGPT, an AI marketing company. I also noticed oddities like the author’s name not being hyperlinked and not having any likely-seeming Google results.

This game is great, and I enjoyed it even more when I realized there is an option (in the settings under “gameplay”) to turn off the cat’s death animation, so when you die the screen just fades to black.
