Eastern North Carolina BBQ related violence is just as real as the dairy aisle-roaming housewives with switchblades.

Think about what it means in a city with surging homelessness that AirBnB has committed to housing more than 25,000 people displaced by the LA fires.

I'm going to have to have a discussion with one of my instructors who asks us to use an AI tool to improve our writing in a Professional Writing class. I'm not at all comfortable feeding my work to the beast. I think there needs to be a clear opt-out policy.

Aside: I know it all eventually ends up there anyway, but I'm able to maintain a 'moral firewall' if I'm not the one putting my work in it's maw.

I'm tired of trying to convince family. They've made their choices for a party that calls me a pedophile and a groomer, and says I need to be eradicated. On public television. They continue to gaslight me.

I couldn't possibly give a shit less about their feelings. All I care about is getting as far away from them as possible.

Yep. That about sums up *checks notes* everything we've seen in the legacy press lately. They're handing that petulant bastard and his army of knuckle-dragging sycophants everything they want because the owners want to keep their money.

I've seen a couple bingo cards.
I worry that a drinking game during this would kill me, and I got the moniker "Iron Liver" from a man on a horse named Big Daddy when I was but a dewey-faced 17. I drank him off off and under his horse with his own corn liquor.

I'm not sure what's more entertaining. Watching the Democrats finally get their shit together and actually -finally- campaign against a sociopathic man-child or watching the sociopathic man-child's campaign continually slipping around in the mud that Harris & Co. are slinging.
This is what the ostensibly sane half of the American electorate has been craving since that mendacious piece of shit rode his little escalator of ruin and rot into our lives.

Since we all have to listen to the constant bitching about AI and the enshittificaton of search engines, I don't want to see one more person being castigated for asking a question on social media that could have been answered with a cursory search.

That was shitty, asshole behavior to begin with and now it can't even be justified by being technically correct.
