I had a discussion about workplace DEI with a friend a few months back. The policies being complained about were not even enforced. From what I could tell the request from HR was "please read the CVs of BIPOC people"
Friend: I have been actively encouraged to discriminate against white males in my hiring in order to follow dei policies. It's everywhere.

Me: Are you being forced?

Friend: You don't need to be forced to have systematic discrimination. That's ridiculous.

Me: What is the penalty for hiring white people? formal or informal?

Friend: Affirmative action is just discrimination by another name. It's simple. There are no penalties

Probably the best two-word Simpsons bit. Maybe tied with Supernintendo Charmers.

Again, what’s the name of the skate park we’re supposed to meet at?
for some reason this skate park in Berlin is called "Dog Shit Spot"

The name they gave this child's clothing store is probably the best brand name gag in the whole series.

When I'm doing a puzzle I start by sorting the pieces and once I've got all four corners I announce "we're 25% done!" It doesn't make sense, it's not funny, and there's no one around to hear me. But I say it every time.

Why is any part of my pension plan invested in what is effectively a Simpson's joke from Season Two?
Dario Amodei from Anthropic believes AI can cure most forms of cancer, prevent Alzheimer’s, and double the human lifespan. Simpsons infomercial from 1991: 
But today, I'd like to talk to you about a pleasant tasting candy
that actually cleans and straightens your teeth.

Called 911 this morning to report this Groundskeeper Willie-inspired solution to hole safety that I found on a busy sidewalk on my way to coffee this morning.
dangerous open hole in the sidewalk. one traffic cone. instead of filling the well that Timmy O'Toole fell down, they just put up a sign that says "caution well"

Watching game six in a bar with two screens. The visible screen from my seat is two seconds ahead of the other one. The audio is from the other feed. The delayed one. It’s distracting. Remember normal broadcast technology? Remember?

Also Google's AI did some glorious work helping me find the part of Richard's quote I couldn't exactly recall.
Google AI gave the famous "heat around the corner" line as the search result for a different quote I was looking for.

I love how this screenwriting example (of what not to do) is basically the dating montage from The Naked Gun (1988)

As soon as Google's AI started telling people that rocks were part of a balanced human diet, the Terminator movies lost some of their lustre for me (Skynet suddenly became a lot less threatening/serious)

New life goal: to be happy like the German couple in the graphic on the toilet seat box.
For some reason the box for this toilet seat in Germany features a happy smiling couple in an insert on the bottom front corner. They seem like they are in love with each other. The box also CLEARLY shows the dimensions of the seat which is the main thing people want to know when buying a new toilet seat.
