What idiot called it "a simple, thick-cream soup made with shellfish" and not "a basic bisque"?

What is the best portable music player for a tween?

Ideally one with out a screen or apps.

Like the original iPods.

Does anything like that exist these days?

Why yes, I was taking notes during the meeting. No, I can’t share them with the rest of the group.

Did you know the interior of the average oven door can hold up to as much as 2 ounces of fully cooked dal?

It’s true. The trick, as I’ve discovered, is to make sure the dal is evenly distributed throughout the interior of the oven door and between as many layers of oven door window glass as possible.

@norootcause oh, actually it is pretty easy…you can simply let the dal drip from an open microwave above the oven and it will go right into a small slot at the top of the oven door.

@stuartmarks @norootcause In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

Jack really has to stop hiring Mudge.

"The ex-staffer apparently left Block – founded by former Twitter boss Jack Dorsey – with around 100 documents that detail compliance failings. Those docs were handed to prosecutors in the Southern District of New York."

The cover of Dinosaur Jr.’s album "Bug".
The image is a monochromatic album cover for “Green Mind” by Dinosaur Jr. It features a girl with long hair wearing a white shirt against a slightly blurred background. The album’s title “GREEN MIND” and the band’s name “DINOSAUR JR” are written in blue and green colors respectively.
The album cover for “Where You Been” by the band Dinosaur Jr. It features a cartoonish character standing beside a road under a dark sky, which creates an eerie atmosphere. The character appears to be in a state of distress or awe. The album’s name “Dinosaur Jr” is written at the top in pink text, and the album title “Where You Been” is at the bottom right corner in green text. The scene depicted has a dark road with yellow dividing lines stretching into the distance and a dark, ominous sky with purple hues.

I used to have a lot of respect for @bcantrill, but a few weeks ago I was listening to a podcast and I heard heard him pronounce "SVG" as "svig" and now I think it is time to re-evaluate everything he has ever said through an objective and critical lens as there is a non-zero chance we’ve all been listening to the unhinged ramblings of a lunatic for well over a decade.
