here me out, coozies for babies' milk bottles that have prints from beer cans on them so it looks like you're gently feeding your baby a PBR that you've somehow attached a nipple to.

Looked into getting a MEM vending machine which is very reasonably sized but the bidding starts at $1500! So we decided if we can raise $1000 we’ll cover the rest. Donate here! venmo.com/code?user_id...

Today, August 4, 2026, is the setting of Ray Bradbury’s short story “There Will Come Soft Rains” about a fully automated house continuing on after the family who lived there and the world around it died in a nuclear blast.

Everyone’s making jokes. I don’t get how you aren’t moved by the pathos of a woman trying, however clumsily, to find one good friend. How many other ways did she try to find connection before now? How many other people tossed potato chip money back in her hopeful face? But she keeps searching.

I'll say this for Eric Adams, if he was the mayor in Ghostbusters, they would have never went to jail or the insane asylum. Hell, they'd probably wind up with sweet no-bid contracts from the city
