Those of you who go to (not plan, but actually attend) job retreats or conferences, what are the actually fun things you did for team bonding and/or networking?

US responsible for killing Iranian schoolchildren. Trump previously blamed Iran. New reporting confirms American Tomahawk missiles destroyed Shajarah Tayyebeh school on the last day of February. The president earlier said he “just doesn’t know enough about it.”

Please forgive my rash and inaccurate call out! Definitely not one of my finer moments.

Done; definitely sorry for jumping the gun

Sorry to cause a panic!

Oh well that’s a relief.

IMHO, don’t be afraid to name and shame, though. If he was willing to be that hurtful in public to someone with clout, imagine how he treats others in private.

Issa product of existing in the red area of the Dunning-Kruger graph.

okay but i didn't know pervert glasses existed but i'm glad we're at least calling them for what they are

stop taking my fun future tech and turning it into villain nonsense

Takes a certain level of self-trust to be the one in the driver’s seat, testing the seal on the sunroof you fixed, while your wife pours the bucket of water over the car.

Honestly can’t tell if people now using “trade” instead of “gamble” are fooling themselves or if people are finally understanding what “speculating” and the stock market are all about.

Section 317, row 4, seat 11 — whoever you were, you were a douchebag and I hope you never get to go to another concert in your life. #dontbethatguy

Put your vape away and sit the fuck down you inconsiderate fucks.

Awesome view at the NIN concert.

Never would’ve guessed. Wish someone could’ve predicted this.

Not that you can read this anymore, Sir who just liked a bunch of my posts, but FYI: if you’re using GenAI, we’re probably not friends and I definitely don’t want to talk to you.

Close up shot of a plate of food, shredded Brussels sprouts, sliced Polska kielbasa with a mix of horseradish relish and mustard, and butter sautéed pierogi smothered with fried onions and a dollop of sour cream, all dusted with cracked black pepper.

Near-macro shot of Ricciarelli cookies (chewy almond cookies, with a cracked and powdered-sugar covered surface) cooling on a parchment-covered baking sheet.

Had a long spell of not cooking much; and so I indulged my wife (and myself) in both dinner and dessert.

Beyoncé retired to the backyard; long live Mariah, The Holiday Cock!

@thebloggess.bsky.social Ho Ho Ho motherfucker. 😂

Home again home again jiggity jig

The dog, nauseated from eating too much too fast, apparently threw up so hard she had a vasovagal response?

Good night. Don’t wake me til like noon.

3 hrs ago I was 10 minutes from bed.

Now, it’s 3am and I’m STILL at the emergency vet. The dog is alive and stable. This on top of the cat who has kidney failure. (Poor Eugene.)

I’m too old for this shit.

Shana tovah!

A Teen Was Suicidal. ChatGPT Was the Friend He Confided In.

“Was” suicidal, because he’s dead now. GenAI misleads, misinforms, outright lies, and straight up kills. Some will read my words & think I’m being dramatic and to you folks, all I can say (aside from wishing you’d gouge out your own eyes so you can’t read my posts) is: I really fucking wish I were.

Shamelessly stolen. #laughrule

😂 we stan a Tumblr legend

I feel like the WHOLE 'live from Broadway' was a setup JUST FOR THAT LINE.

Life, as in art — knock knock motherfucker

DAMNIT Jamie Stop It. No more of this “forward in time” nonsense.

We know about rule 34. What’s the number for “if there is a truly impossible and stupid take, someone believes in a conspiracy about it”?
