Sometimes I think embodiment was a mistake
At my first job at a cheese store when I was 16 Tim Curry walked in.
I legit didn’t know how I knew him, maybe a friend of the family? So I went “Do I know you from somewhere?”
and in the most Tim Curry way he put me in my place
“You know me from many things.” He didn’t say another word to me lol
Fun and easy!
I want the complete Chronicles of Amber for my bookshelf, which long ago I had but gave away because they were mismatched. Now I'm in a pickle b/c it seems like the only way to get them is in one giant volume, which feels, idk, cumbersome. Or I could try to collect them all individually used. Idk.
Might be time for me to finally play this game lol
My friend is still a ways from meeting his goal and they're going to take his house in a few weeks if he doesn't make this. Any help you can give is appreciated.

this morning, mamdani’s team got in touch with me to float a new tax proposal: if your net worth exceeds $5 million and you dress badly, you’ll be hit with a 10% annual levy for “visual pollution.” i would be in charge of deciding if the outfits are bad.

Two characters hug, holding pride flags. A speech bubble reads, "No cops at Pride!" Another bubble says, "Yay happy pride!" Below, one character points, saying, "That means you too, Odo," towards a departing figure. The tone is playful and supportive.

Scaachi Koul: I’ve never used any of these and somehow have managed to make grocery lists and book several trips and write my little articles just fine. You needed AI for that? How embarrassing for you.

UPDATE: Cat had to update the goal to $3k bc with their and their partner’s poor/nonexistent credit, the deposit is going to be higher. They can afford the monthly rent, it’s just the initial move-in cost that’s out of reach. Currently at $495. Please keep sharing and donating!

I just want to be able to use a partial word as a mute term. Every time I read one of these I feel like I'm losing brain cells.
ChatGPT: you’re right you’re so much smarter than him. He’s so schlubby and you’re so suave. Columbo will never catch you.
screencap of a tweet with a photo at the bottom of JD Vance giving a talk, gesturing smugly with his hands Eric Daugherty • @EricLDaugh • 1h • JD VANCE RESPONDS TO POPE LEO: "When the Pope says that God is never on the side of those who wield the sword - there is more than a THOUSAND year tradition of Just war Theory." "In the same way that it's important for the vice president of the United States to be careful when I talk about matters of public policy, I think it's very, very important for the pope to be careful when he talks about matters of theology." "And I think that one of these issues here is that there has been - if you're going to opine on matters of theology, you've got to be careful, you've got to make sure it's anchored in the truth, and that's one of the things that I try to do, and it's certainly something I would expect from the clergy, whether they're Catholic or Protestant."
I’ve given this a great deal of thought, trying to come up with the perfect joke for this moment, and this is what I have so far -
POPE LEO: our religion teaches that this war is bad
VANCE: wow, who died and made YOU head of the Catholic Church??
POPE LEO: well, you should know, you were there
Help a grad student out:
I need to interview a medical professional in any field (public health, nursing, medicine, psychology, physical therapy, etc.). about how they view patients, their work vis a vis the Hippocratic Oath, and what role (if any) their religion plays.
