Offering me a free month of upgraded chatbot service is kind of like offering me a free pineapple pizza. Not only do I not want it, but it actively makes me think less of your organization.

Not a fan of the @nytimes.com @theathletic.com choices on this random Monday home page. Where are the women? There couldn't be ONE headline or picture that wasn't about a dude?

Sports section of NYTimes home page, with stories about men's cycling, men's soccer, men's pro football, men's college football, a man talking about tennis, men's wrestling, and a photo of a man.

Whatever you do, don't smoke an entire brisket at a job interview, it's a lot of equipment to bring in, it takes a really long time to do it right and those conference rooms have notoriously poor ventilation

ok so I called AT&T, and it is the fifth call I've made today. And I do not abuse humans who are just trying to make a living, but I was pretty angry with the AI robot. AND IT HUNG UP ON ME FOR SWEARING. If you can't swear at an AI robot, what are we coming to?

I support getting money out of politics in general, but I specifically support getting politicians and their offshoots to stop freaking texting me.

A recent survey found that 92% of U.S. adults have delayed or avoided medical care due to high costs. Meanwhile, a new study from Yale estimates that Medicare for All would save over 114,000 lives and $1 trillion a year. If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have universal healthcare.

Today is #HobbitDay because Bilbo and Frodo Baggins were both born on September 22nd. Normally we'd shire a hobbit pun or two but it might just feel like a tolkien gesture and we don't want to embarrass our elves. Anyway it's a good day to come and boromir #Tolkien books. 📚

New in PN: Retire in peace "McConnell would never be allowed to drive a car, babysit young children, or file his own taxes. Why, then, should a cognitively incapacitated 82-year-old retain one of the most important positions of power within the national government?"

Retire in peace

McConnell is the latest example of an incapacitated politician refusing to let go.

Got my updated COVID and flu shots today because I prefer not dying and also fuck RFK jr and this whole willfully ignorant and malicious administration.

Two bandaids, one for my COVID shot and one for the flu. I didn't know which is which, I didn't look.

I love how, when I give my cat a treat, he pops up on my desk, five minutes later, pretending to be a completely different cat, who also deserves a treat.
