Pretty rude of the world to have so many different kinds of 4-letter flatbreads, if you ask this crossword solver.

Wow, the new replit.com is a shitshow. I just wanted to write and run some Ruby code in my browser like I've done a thousand times but now it's some AI thing. I asked the AI to create an empty Ruby project, which took 2+ minutes (there used to be a button for this and it was instantaneous). 1/3

I’m still in disbelief looking at photos and videos now. We were so lucky that the largest tree missed our house. Cedar Rapids lost more than 65% of its tree canopy in 45 minutes.

Many years ago I tried to make the same point in a social media post and a friend helpfully pointed out that I’m a dude and my experience of public transit is very different from hers. Too bad this dude didn’t have any women around to read his piece before he published it.

This morning a baby in the chicken run. Not sure what it was doing out during the day. The internet says it’s big enough to survive on its own, though. It ran off when I turned my back.

Get ready with me comic
4 panel comic titled “get ready with me”
Panel 1 - a guy is bringing a bowl of food to his cat - the caption says “this is my cute little morning routine”
Panel 2 - he watches as his cat eats the food, behind them is an ominous black portal bordered with skulls and with tentacles coming out of it
Panel 3 - he sits in a recliner with a cup of coffee and his cat at his feet. He says “ahh so nice” - the portal is still lurking behind them
Panel 4 - he’s now reading a book. The cat is sleeping in his lap. The portal still looms. He says “the trick is to ignore the void of infinite horrors “

Overnight, a masked bandit broke into our kitchen. Armed with opposable thumbs, he proceeded to sample everything on offer. I’d just visited the farmers market, so the menu was extensive. I can now share a highly specific peer-reviewed list of what this particular raider did & did not enjoy. 🧵

It still cracks me up that the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey found the geographic center of the contiguous 48 states—a spot near Lebanon, Kansas still marked by a monument and picnic area—in 1918 by balancing a large cardboard cutout of the United States on a point.

Dropped Amazon Music in favor of an Apple One subscription today. With the Apple services we already subscribe to it's a savings of like $8/mo. and we get Apple TV too. Apple Music is a very mediocre music streaming service but so was Amazon Music, and my music needs are very basic anyway.

Just in case you still use any Basecamp products, DHH is crashing out about his AI product gently pointing out that it’s bad for him to have extermination fantasies about the Roma people.
DHH tweet saying “This is why we need competition and open weights in Al. Imagine a world where only Anthropic sat as the moral arbiter of acceptable speech. Fucking ridiculous. (Grok of course did it no problem, same too with Kimi K).” when presented with his blog post using a slur about the Roma people.

Furry visitor returned last night. Shhh she’s being invisible. (I think it’s a “she.”) At this rate we’re going to have to name her.

@perfecthatgames.com Sort of a bug on Can of Words: “Reveal first letters” doesn’t show letters are part of an already-selected word. (Discovered this today when I couldn’t figure out why my solution with “upper case” and “lower case” wasn’t accepted.)

My chihuahua rolled in chicken poop so I won’t let him sit by me until I’ve had a chance to bathe him. He keeps shooting me the most pitiful looks. He’s going to look even more pitiful in the bath. (Pic of clean pup for tax.)

The in-universe Gazelle song in Zootopia 2 (“we’re turning the floor into a zoo-ooh-ohh”) indicates that zoos exist in the Zootopia universe, which raises the troubling question: what do they keep in their zoos? My theory? Anthropomorphic cars.

One time in college I was driving friends around late at night when some folks flagged us down and asked if we knew how to get somewhere. It was close to where we were going so I said, “Sure, follow us!” Very soon I realized that I had gotten all of us lost. Very embarrassing.
