Cost of living is up but competition reality TV show winners get 10% the money they used to. $100k?? Back in my day, they would won $1M. What’s up with that.

The problem I have with Mamdani is he makes me feel insecure! We started our jobs around the same time but he’s accomplished so much more.

I keep seeing Turning Point ads on YouTube even though I asked to see fewer of them. I’m just not going on if I have to see them.

The "Jason figured it out meme" from the Goodplace, but the captions are:

LinkedIn figured it out?

LinkedIn?  This is a real low point.

the two outfits for men
A photo of a dog peeking out of a car window. The placement of the dog and the person taking the photo — where the lower half of the person's outfit is reflecting off the car door — makes it look like the dog is wearing a button-up shirt and tan pants.

The webpage warning chlorine dioxide & raw camel milk are NOT cures for autism (they can kill you) has disappeared, courtesy of 🧠🪱 & co. The throughline of flipping facts, & cozying up to quack cures persists; this all makes Americans less safe & less healthy. RFK Jr’s MAHA mission accomplished?🙄

One thing I feel safe enough to talk about publicly is it felt like lots of men in what I’m calling 99SWEs just trauma dumped on me when it was just supposed to be a coffee chat or I was teaching DSA. Not why I left but it’s certainly a reason I’m glad I did. Idc about ur breakup or ur wife cheating

Now that I’ve decided to start meeting people where they are (two days ago), I realized everyone is basic to someone in some area. Everyone’s special interest is different.

I loved that Bad Bunny said “God bless America!” Then listed countries and islands in the western hemisphere starting from Columbia and Ecuador and ending with the US and Canada. Thus demonstrating that the western hemisphere is the Americas and giving US a social studies lesson many need.
