Trans people exist. More importantly, whatever one calls taking leave of work to support a partner after they've given birth, it's not going to be a holiday. Things like paternity leave exist because of how much work newborns can be.

It has some strong David Lynch vibes. We're presented with a pretty mundane situation. Then, the events of the story slowly chip away at the familiar elements of the environment, revealing it to be a facade until we're left staring at the ever-growing gap between individual perception and empirical, objective reality, calling into question various ontological and epistemological assumptions. It's like staring at a photograph until we can see it as the cloud of particles that it is and then realizing that it's always been that way. The intensely surreal feeling reveals itself to be the process of the mind resolving cognitive dissonance while accepting the infinite and stochastic nature of the physical universe. A game, a mislead, a piss beaker, and a bus. These elements changed us as we changed them by perceiving them, and then, life goes on.

I wish I could give you gold for this, but all I got right now is this box of one dozen starving, crazed weasels.

Also, there are bars on which's jukebox one can play Weird Al's eleven-ish-minute song, "Albuquerque." Not everyone will appreciate it, so you probably shouldn't. I just wanted you to know that you can.

Man, I hate it when that happens.

This must be how the Jurassic Park Scientists felt when they first realized what was possible.

Seems like the time to point that out would have been immediately after he realized the theft.

Best case: He has a secret family that he uses to make apple fritters for you.

Worst cast: He has a secret family to which he's funneling apple fritters, which is why you get none.

Weird case: He has a secret family of anthropomorphic apple-fritter-human hybrids he's hiding from you and your hunger.

Everyone should try a butter bell at least once.

Remember_the_tooth ,

I think that's probably the best option for most people. Those are much easier to use. I like the butter bell more because it can take me a couple of weeks to get through a stick of butter. It wouldn't go fully rancid in a butter dish in that time, but I don't like the oxidation layer that forms on the outside. Regardless, room-temperature butter allies unite!

Nah, get some topsider shoes or penny loafers, khaki shorts, woven leather belt, a golf shirt and some aviator sunglasses. Then load that bad boy up with any and all cards you can find. Stuff it until the calfskin is warped and about ready to burst. Then shove it in your back pocket and sit on it for several decades. Ignore any contrary advice from orthopedics.

The identities of the six men were disclosed by Representative Ro Khanna, a California Democrat, in a post on X on Tuesday, as Salvatore Nuara, Zurab Mikeladze, Leonic Leonov, Nicola Caputo, Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem and billionaire businessman Leslie Wexner.

TV remotes should have an easy-to-find (by touch) "volume toggle" button that toggles between two volume settings.

We all know the modern complaint: movie sound sucks now unless you have a high-end sound system. Frantically turning down the volume after turning it up to hear the dialogue only to need to turn it up again can be frustrating. Now, this doesn't solve the underlying problem, but why not have a "Volume A" and "Volume B" you can ...

Remember_the_tooth ,

Am I the only psycho that just uses the TV as a monitor and my phone as the remote to the PC? After that, you can pretty much macro or script whatever you want.

You're probably one of the few people that has heard the dialog from Tenet then. Christopher Nolan films are some of my favorites, but wow, was that audio messed up. I had to create an equalizer profile just for that.

Remember_the_tooth ,

Subtitles are great. I almost always have them on to aid comprehension. I find that I pick up on more subtleties that way. I feel like I still want to be able to process almost all of the dialog with audio alone so that the subtitles add an extra layer of understanding.

Remember_the_tooth ,

I don't think that's wrong at all. I gave it 3 tries and then started looking for outside analyses. Movies are made by groups of people. It makes sense that it would take groups to understand them. I had to do the same thing with Coherence and Primer.

Remember_the_tooth ,

I'd recommend them, if you enjoy that experience/process.

I did like that Tenet has layers. You can watch it as an action movie, no problem, but you can also go as far down into the story as you want to also.

I wonder if they would have instead called him a chaiwala just to add some racial undertones.

On Monday, Hess appeared to respond in a social media post, without mentioning Trump by name.

“I love my country,” Hess began, adding, “there is so much that is great about America.”

“[B]ut there are always things that could be better,” Hess went on. “One of the many things that makes this country so amazing is that we have the right and the freedom to point that out.”

He continued:

"The best part of the Olympics is that it brings people together, and when so many of us are divided we need that more than ever. I cannot wait to represent Team USA next week when I compete."

Remember_the_tooth ,

While he doesn't have a FIFA peace prize to his name, I feel Hess's medals and awards are decent evidence that he's not a loser.

That's pretty funny, but what is going on with Harvard? I expected MAGA to be upset with them for being an educational institution, but then Epstein connections start showing up over there and now alert and oriented people with literacy and consciences are mad at them, too.

I wonder what O'Sullivan thinks Halliburton was doing in Iraq at the time. Why are BP, Shell and Chevron there now? I don't think those are Iraqi companies.

No kidding, and the feature is on by default. It'll be lost human family members next.

There's the unexpected dark humor FTW.

Remember_the_tooth ,

First it was subpoenas, then it was complying with law enforcement requests. I think the new development is that just anyone can do it.

Remember_the_tooth ,

I hadn't even considered this aspect. I guess we can kiss goodbye the witness protection program.

Remember_the_tooth ,

It's a combination of two things, the subversion of expectation, which is a common device in jokes, and the criticism of authority, which is another, similarly common, one.

In my comment, I'm pointing out that these cameras are a risk for even broader abuses than just subpoenas, and compliance with law enforcement requests under the guise of finding lost family members.

The responder humorously twists my words to claim that it's not a problem because the lost family members have already been swept up in an indiscriminate drag net, such that the cameras can not find them.

The joke is on the DHS, and not it's victims.

Remember_the_tooth ,

I was trying to point out that this feature may be even worse than that because it doesn't even require a formal law enforcement request. If this becomes what it looks like, even private contractors will be able to access it without raising any alarms, further lowering the bar.

On January 3rd, 2026, a small group of US armed forces paid a visit to Northern Venezuela, beginning their tour around 2 A.M. local time, when various elements of Venezuelan infrastructure began to explode. President Maduro and his Wife fled the chaos aboard a US Military aircraft on which they were photographed in cozy-looking sleep masks and wearing shiny new bracelets. They landed in New York to settle into their new accommodations and are expected to begin sharing their experiences in a court of law sometime in March.

Meanwhile, on the high seas, several Venezuelan oil tankers, otherwise floundering in the chaos, have been seen being escorted by US Naval fleets to various safe harbors along the US coast, where it's expected their precious cargo will be offloaded for safekeeping.
