One has to appreciate that NBC's entire advert plan for the 2024 Olympics is literally "Simone Biles is Back"

I'm going to put this here and understand if you keep scrolling.

A friend of mine for around 15 years recently blowed up and he lost his his wife, one of their kids, and home. So right now he can't work, only has a few bucks in his pocket and there is food, shelter, and funeral expenses piling up

I don't get the genre of T-shirts and bumper stickers that are Wives proud of their husband's jobs.

Monotype (the font company) has ads on FB suggesting you should pay them to help you do this

edit: I've had to clean up a number of newsletters and product flyers to fix this and other publishing nightmares

I was understandably wrong that the text in Alan's cube was Klingon (someone said once) but I'm pretty sure the Klingon Tron wasn't in Tron.

It is an unfortunate thing that the Marie Callander's "Chicken Teryaki" is only slightly more edible ~ emphasis on slightly ~ than the cardboard they served at the hospital in January. The latter of which made the hospital in February seem gourmet

Hook is one of those movies that can never be remade because Robin Williams can never be replaced

@anathema_device yeah, you kinda have to channel your inner 12 year old self. There's a lot of popular stuff I feel the same way about, even LOTR

March 31 was already significant to me because that's the day in 1998 when I helped Navigator become .

Now this day has a whole new meaning for me as a woman. And it's my first that I celebrate publicly since coming out to everyone on June 21 of last year.

To all my siblings, I see you. Even if complete visibility isn't possible for you right now. You still matter. You're still loved. And you're still trans. Never doubt that. 🏳️‍⚧️🫂💖

@enmodo @lisamelton TBH it depends on how embarrassing the misteak is

Another take on Elon Musk’s brilliant solution to the Key bridge disaster in Baltimore.

@BrianJopek Sure, the steel could be recycled but it's never that simple.

Besides, are they rebuilding the same thing, or going for a more modern design ~ the ships are a lot bigger now than in the 70's for starters

olav,
@olav@theweird.space avatar

@glitzersachen @BrianJopek no, absolutely not. But he ought to know better ~ his new staarships are made out of stainless and scraps are recyclable (not reusable)

With Threads' entry into the fediverse, I'll be posting and playing around with two accounts now.

This one, on Mastodon.social: @drewharwell

How are y'all planning to do it?

If you want to be annoyed next time you watch Star Wars~ at least in ep 4-6 all these advanced ships with 1980's UX and spiffy deflector shields but you'd think someone would have invented a gun that can shoot backwards

@anathema_device I suppose he could send the ambassador home, but he might take the AUS mission with, at least effectively
