I want a Batman story in which Bruce Wayne invents video games, ultimately providing a low-cost home entertainment option that helps significantly reduce street crime from the mid-1990s onward.

no er visit 🙏 all numbers are fake the point where I would go to an ER for blood pressure management alone is "do I currently see God?" but that type of data is hard to measure. perhaps AI can help

Increasingly concerned re: people offloading vital cognitive processes by using GIF replies. Expressing snark with words is a core part of being human, don't let some GIF picker widget a startup preloaded with clips of mid range TV shows take that from you!

I just did the one thing I am medically not supposed to do after fibrin patching (throw up a lot) 💀 the doctor gave me his cell # mercifully, which is an insane practice but it's currently saved me an ER trip for now

specifically: the single biggest waste of time in my care this year was a backwater neurosurgery practice trying and failing to be Dr. House. the appt where I completely bypassed them for a doctor who knew nothing about me, but would happily refer me to Stanford, actually moved me along

Two panel comic. Panel 1: a bat hangs upside-down from a telephone line at sunset. The bat is in front of a billboard advertising the Florida Mega Jackpot, which is valued at $5,318,008 - represented with a digital ticker. Panel 2: the POV flips to the bat’s upside-down perspective, which makes the digital numbers look like they spell “BOOBIES”. The bat appears delighted.

@carolinaruins

a few years ago i was trying out a new therapist and i told her about how i was a little embarrassed to have a fan account. she said “if it makes you feel any better, i have a kpop fan account on instagram where i pretend to be an asian teenager.” that doesn’t make me feel better

This to me is BlueSkyism
Meme account shows a picture of two attractive woman and asks "Blonde or Goth girls?" But the reply they get is from someone called Bob the Minion and it reads "I don't even care. Honestly, my life is really bad right now. I started a Minion Parody page and moved to NYC or LA to try to get some work in the entertainment industry. and now I'm being chewed up and spit out. If you or anyone could help me out I'd really appreciate it."

the key is to start at age 20 working for a West Coast hospital that has a pension. a lot of people think they'll get rich travel nursing, and then 3 years later I learn they live in an RV with a $3k/month candle budget, a spouse with a Passion, and work two contracts a year max

look. I listen to a lot of crappy pop music. what Big Music refuses to tell you is that "Choosin' Texas" is perfectly fine but that's it. frankly it's repetitive and the lyrics are completely unremarkable.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a guy is putting on his jacket, getting ready to leave his apartment. He says, “gonna go get some ice cream.” Panel 2: the guy peeks around a corner into another room in his apartment. In the room, there is a monkey with glowing eyes floating in a large, shimmering, blue tube and some unusual technology lining the walls. The guy asks, “you want anything, omniscient monkey in hypersleep?” Panel 3: answering his own question, the guy scoffs, “psh! Duh… banana flavor.”

a stupid and petty thing is that I think rank titles should get longer only with higher ranks. it irritates me that "Professor" is above Assistant Professor" for example. Or "Lieutenant Colonel" being a lower rank than "Colonel". It should be the opposite.
