I just saw a meme that said “get in losers, we’re reclaiming the emdash”. People. PEOPLE. Where are your STANDARDS? It CLEARLY should be “get in, losers — we’re reclaiming the em dash.”

My son's 2nd grade teacher trained search & rescue dogs and asked all her students' "tooth fairies" to pass along baby teeth because they are the only "dead" human parts one can legally own and they used them to train the dogs to find deceased people. Maybe science-y kid would like that reason?

Newspapers really were a miraculous thing. People would wake up in the morning and find a short book on their doorstep that told them what was happening in the world. We have a rectangle that does something similar, but it's cursed. Newspapers weren't cursed. You could wrap fish and chips in them.

The first warning arrived on a Tuesday morning, six weeks after consultants advised moving from dependency on six hundred small excel scripts - and nobody at Zenith Ledger Advisory paid much attention. It appeared in the system dashboard between routine audit notifications and a maintenance reminder

One way of thinking about HR1 is that in exchange for a tax cut that most benefits the wealthy, the much larger number of people who rely safety net benefits *and* our state governments are going to lose resources because of administrative burdens

The biggest misunderstanding about HR1 (big beautiful bill) is that it was about work requirements or error or fraud. The point was to make it impossible for eligible people to access benefits by requiring them to navigate an endless array of impossible bureaucratic obstacles.

For sure, glad it was helpful. 😊 I actually settled at a lower glp maintenance dose even though I could go higher - the last glp increase I tried wiped out the effects of my Vyvanse almost entirely, so I stepped back down to where they could each do their thing.

Someone asked for an app to point your camera at a color and find matches. Cool. Here. BUT ALSO: I'm colorblind and never thought to make this for myself! Save colors ("new paint," "mom's fave"), get colorblind-friendly complements, simulate what you see vs. what others see. Legit using this daily.

What Color Is That?
No seriously, what color is that? I genuinely cannot tell. Aim your camera at a color — get its name, details, matches, plus colorblind palettes and simulation. Save colors with personal labels.

Same. They say it quiets the "food noise" - but for me it quiets *all* the noise. It makes the Vyvanse I've been on for over a decade less effective (because it slows digestion and the time release on Vyvanse depends on digestion), but the helpful effects of the glp more than make up for that.

I have never paid more than $4000 for a car. I’ve just not been able to. I am aware of all the benefits that come from spending more up front. I have just never been able to afford that outlay. I am not unusual in this. EVs are a great concept but just a theory for many of us.

Flowers in the Attic, when I was like 10 or 11. My mom was a very conservative Christian but also a reading teacher who genuinely believed that everyone should get to read whatever interests them. Honestly I kinda wish she would have taken it away, that shit messed with my head.

Incidentally, my mom had dysphagia (I didn't know it was called that until the article you posted though - but she had trouble swallowing for years) and she found that drinking hot water (not tea, not coffee, just hot water) helped with it a lot. That's even what she would drink with meals.

Any chance you started a new med recently? I have lots of food aversions just naturally but some medications they've tried to put me on make it more intense and/or expand to like, all foods. (Obs, no need to actually answer this question, just sharing my experience just in case it resonates)

For me it's the toilet *seat* part. I hope he at least means the toilet seat *cover* not the actual part you sit on to use the toilet - although any toilet with a seat flip-down cover also has a tank on the back with a nice, flat, waist-high surface on top that would make way more sense to use.

Yeah sometimes it's just that one or more of the bulbs randomly lost its connection to the wifi router (once it was just that the app that controls them had updated T&Cs that I had to go in and agree to) so it's not a for sure sign the wifi is out completely - but you make a good point

Ifyousayso @ifyousayso.bsky.social · 08/02/2026
Could be the neighbors have smart bulbs in their outdoor lights and their wifi went out. Mine flash when that happens. They don't stop until either the wifi comes back on or we switch the power off to them at the wall switch.

At least negotiations would have to involve conversations about the specific factors mentioned and potentially force the administration to show their hand at least a little. My bet is that CPB will prioritize protecting their tracking/database building objectives; making them say it would be telling

Sorry to burst your bubble but you'd need at least three times that much just to get anything resembling a "towering complex" of housing built, then you'd need to figure out how to come up with probably $5M-$10M a year for upkeep and operations if you want to keep rents remotely affordable.
