Well, it’s problematic for *him* because he’s a repulsive turd.

Witnessed this exact problem today when a woman just kinda…let go of the leash and let her dog run up on another woman’s dog

Bredward and I had a cuddly #FathersDay
A large brown tabby lays across a man’s lap with his beefy paw on the man’s leg and his face pressed against the man’s belly. His eyes are partially closed. His tail curls over the man’s bare calf.

Still riding the high from West Philly Porchfest. What a perfect way to end a month-long series of shows. Thanks to @jerseywallphl.bsky.social for capturing the rare moments when I look cool! #phillymusic #phillybands #squiggler

Caveat: It’s useful for comparing relative temperatures but not accurate for measuring absolute temperatures. I’ve heard there are good cameras that attach to your phone, but I haven’t looked into it enough to decide on one.

I too am reluctantly adjusting to the “wearing multiple layers indoors” life this winter. I have an infrared thermometer, and as soon as we’re done moving in, I’m going on the hunt for all the drafts in the house.

I’m glad/mad that our little potato is light enough to carry when she refuses to go for a walk in even mildly inclement weather. It’s not like we don’t have jackets and sweaters for her. She’s just a big baby.

My roommate is not contributing his fair share of the household chores. He just lies around all day and expects me to do everything.

I firmly believe most of the world’s problems could be solved if billionaires would just spend a tiny fraction of their obscene wealth on seeing a decent therapist.

They’re not mutually exclusive. I would argue that you must know why you’re making something in order to make it properly. Distressingly few of my fellow computer science majors seemed to understand this in the required ethics course we took.

In my case, he was a mentor early in my career, and he got his degree in theater. I can never repay him for all the knowledge he imparted to me.

Probably the same or similar to what we had! My parents got an Apple IIGS, which was one of the few models in color back then. It came with a baseball game that my dad and I played together. Oh, and Carmen Sandiego, of course

I hate the idea of relying on capitalism to save us, but part of me hopes that the mega corporations will exert their considerable influence on the White House once they see how damaging its economic and foreign policies are for their shareholders…

U.S. labor market inches back from the COVID-19 shock, but recovery is far from complete
Here’s how the COVID-19 recession is affecting labor force participation and unemployment among American workers a year after its onset.

Lack of labor protections is a big one. I keep thinking about how well-attended the George Floyd protests in Philly were compared to others before and since then. I suspect the difference was the pandemic and the resulting unemployment. How many more people would protest if they had no job to lose?

Turnip is celebrating #Caturday with a quiet moment to herself, away from her rambunctious siblings. Behold, bun perfection!
A white cat with gray spots on her forehead sits atop her plushy cushioned tower. Her eyes are almost closed. She has her legs tucked underneath her, making a perfect round bun.
