personally I would like to see more sexy half-naked big bazonga babes in video games but at the same time I do not wish to be associated with the men who scream and cry and act oppressed every time a video game does not include a sexy half-naked big bazonga babe

Genre of neurodivergent that’s like “Sure that person talks to me all the time, compliments me, opens up to me, remembers the things I say, values my opinions, & sticks around even when I’m accidentally inappropriate… but do they ACTUALLY like me or are they just tolerating me?”

ok having now finished the entire film series my three takeaways are 1) jk rowling swag-jacked tolkien so hard it's kind of unbelievable 2) 60% of iconic 2008-2012 memes come from this franchise 3) viggo mortensen as aragorn is the sexiest that anyone has ever been onscreen

Cons of being a software engineer no one really talks about 👇 Everyone sees the salaries, WFH perks, and fancy titles. Here’s the other side: • Your learning never ends If you stop learning for even 6–12 months, you start falling behind. Tech doesn’t wait. • Mental fatigue is real Staring at screens, debugging for hours, context switching—your brain gets tired before your body. • You’re judged by output, not effort 10 hours of hard thinking can look like “nothing” if the feature didn’t ship. • Imposter syndrome never fully goes away New stack, new company, smarter peers → constant self-doubt. • Deadlines don’t care about bugs Management promises dates. Engineers deal with reality. • Work-life balance depends on the team, not the role One bad manager can ruin a “dream job”. • Rejections hit differently You can be good and still fail interviews because of luck, timing, or niche questions. • Side projects feel mandatory To grow or switch jobs, your free time often becomes “resume time”. • AI pressure is increasing You’re expected to be faster, smarter, and more productive—constantly. • Your worth can feel tied to your skills When code breaks, confidence breaks with it. Still a great career. Just not the “easy money” path social media sells. If you’re choosing this field—choose it with eyes open.

The weirdness of directions in St Paul only makes perfect sense if you picture yourself as an 1850s riverboat captain. If the Mississippi is a straight south-to-north highway no matter how it curves, then the port side of your steamship is always "West".

This is just the tip of the iceberg. West St. Paul is next to South St Paul, which is by westside St Paul, but nowhere near the geographical western border of St Paul. Both North and South St Paul are east of St Paul. But there is no East St Paul, only St Paul Park.

The New Yorker's art department never misses

BREAKING: ICE agents are reportedly being ticketed by Minneapolis police for every petty infraction possible—including jaywalking, littering, and speeding one mile over the limit—and the police officers keep telling them, “You should have complied with the law, or stayed home.”

its crucial rn to be getting your news on minnesota from MINNESOTANS. star tribune, mpr, minnesota reformer, racket and sahan journal are who you should be following for accurate, real time information. not twitter. not the national media.

The left can (and did) learn. What's different about these protests vs. the crazy 2020 ones is simple: They figured out that the public didn't come to their side when they burned down the city and looted a bunch of stores. Look at the 2026 version: No local businesses harmed, no personal property damage to speak of. If something gets destroyed, it's an ICE asset. Given that the populace (the smart populace, at any rate) is already super anti-ICE at this point because of their tactics and how they've been trampling the Constitution against America's own citizens, all the public at large is going to do when seeing this is say "fuck yeah" Nobody's getting upset at a bunch of brownshirts having their SUV trashed the way they would seeing Nana Bethany's Yarn Barn going up in smoke.

We don't do vibe coding, we practice Agentic Engineering. We define the architecture, orchestrate AI agents to implement the logic, and rigorously validate the output against our production standards.

Someone wished me Merry Chrysler, but I didn’t have the heart to tell them I celebrate Toyotathon, so I just said Happy Honda Days.

my astigmatism makes our christmas tree look so beautiful 🤩

Schedule for the week! 💜

so crazy to just be living every day through the slow motion car crash of escalating fascism and it’s still like. aw man i have to go to the dentist

It’s wild how people can effortlessly understand the righteousness of everybody from Robin Hood to Andor and then in real life simp for the Sheriff of Nottingham and the Death Star

The autistic excitement when an obscure fact you know that you never thought would be relevant to a conversation one day feels relevant to a conversation and you can share it organically.
