I had a friend who lost their arm in an accident and I was low-key jealous because it’s probably way more comfortable sleeping on your side when you don’t have a dumb arm getting in the way.

@Alice And you could carry cans of Pringles in your empty shirt sleeves. Slip 'em right in there for a handy (sorry) snack.

@Popehat Does the black balaclava go under the shirt collar or pull down over the tie knot?

This is your periodic reminder that the cursed monkey's paw will absolutely let you wish for more wishes

@zalasur It's always been unclear to me -- Is it the paw of a monkey who was cursed prior to the amputation or can one just curse any old monkey paw?

July was the hottest month on record. So here's some tips on how to stay safe in the heat:

-Do not look directly at the sun. The sun interprets this as a challenge, and will become hotter to assert dominance.

-Cover your body in slugs. Each slug will lower your body temperature by a third of a degree.

-Crawl around on all fours instead of walking. Heat rises, so you want to stay as low as possible.

-Remove the various tubs of ice cream from your freezer to make room for yourself.

@lowqualityfacts I did look at my deep freezer the other day and think "reverse hot tub." I feel seen. Thank you.

Tuesday Question Time!

I enjoyed the conversation from my previous toot so much, let's keep it going:

What do other people think about the place you live?

VS

What do you personally think about the place you live?

What are the stereotypes vs how is it to actually live there?

@Alice @RickiTarr I did PR for Oakland Zoo for a hot minute and I swear half of my job was reminding people from Berkeley how great Oakland is.

    People in Europe will make fun of Americans and their obsession with ranch dressing while simultaneously serving fried potatoes with fifteen different types of mayonnaise.

    Not throwing shade. Just want to acknowledge that we’re all gross.

    Country singer: gets off their private jet, has their butler pop open a bottle of Dom Pérignon, walks onto stage adorned in $100,000 worth of jewelry

    Country fans: Hmm I fear they might be a city slicker.

    Country singer: Driving a tractor through my small town, wearing jeans and drinking beer.

    Country fans: Oops false alarm, that's an authentic country boy right there.

    The takeaway isn't "haha, the richboys died."

    The takeaway is that was operating with the same absence of regulation and oversight larger corporations are currently advocating for themselves worldwide.

    Year 2000: Every building in the Bay Area is converted to a live-work space, as every tech job expects you to have a home office.

    Year 2023: How can you possibly work from home and be productive in the tech industry?

    @devxvda That sounds like it would be so difficult.
