It pains me that Mike Rowe (the star of "Dirty Jobs") has become a big oil-and-gas shill ("yay fossil fuels! Fossil Fuels are good!") and now is buddying up with the anti-vaxxer Presidential candidate-trying-to-leverage-the-family-name. 😢
The family used to be a big fan of Dirty Jobs. I cringe every time someone hits replay on those episodes here :-(
The boss has been pestering me to attend a leadership conference so I, completely jokingly, said, "A true leader would never sit in an audience being told what to do" and now half this office is in existential crisis
This shining example of a man drove his Cybertruck on our local beach near Santa Cruz and of course got it stuck. This car is really becoming a symbol for poor life choices.
You omitted the most ruinous SCOTUS outcome of them all. The one we don’t talk about much anymore because we’ve normalized an intolerable situation that changed everything and makes future change to our national character, laws and and norms exceedingly difficult going forward: the odious and completely ill-founded Citizens United ruling. We were all totally fucked the minute that came down. All because a few ideologues didn’t want to have a coronation.

Around midnight the night before, a coworker called me urging me to change my flight to fly into San Jose instead. This meant I had to give up my 1st class seat and move to a flight… Show more Bill Ellmore 𝕏 @BillEllmore The reason my coworker told me to change my flight was she took the same flight on 9/10 and the commute from San Francisco to Mountain View would make me late for my meeting whereas traveling from San Jose to Mountain View would be faster in the morning. 11:42 AM · Sep 11, 2023 · 921.5K Views Mark (Elsa's Dad) Davis, Man of Leisure @MarkDavis8919 · Sep 11 she saved your life with advice, which you followed. what ever happened to your coworker?

"Elon Musk has been plotting the Twitter rebrand for 9+ months"
"Elon Musk's vision for X is 25 years in the making"
you can say that but we also all saw the guy ask his followers for a free logo for X just hours before this all went live and half the site still says Twitter
seems like things are going good over at Reddit where the company (led by its CEO “spez”) just launched its open pixel art canvas known as r/Place while users protest against recent Twitter-like API changes that killed third-party apps
I have so many former classmates raving about Sound of Freedom and it's depressing watching well meaning but misinformed people fall down the right wing pipeline.
