What a bunch of awesome weird little guys!

We are up thinking evil businessmen would be cool and super intelligent like Xanatos... Turns out they are

But what we got was just the worst possible businessmen being the worst possible people trying to destroy the world.

Last time I was on Facebook for something I got distracted trying to just block ai generated tiny house spam images being promoted onto the feed, and eventually just gave up and left.

The paws reaching out from under a blanket covered stool to grab my ankle this morning support this theory.

I still stand behind my review of the martian "The only way to explain this movie/book is that Mark Watney died in the first few minutes, and the entire thing is a hallucination his brain created as it was slowly starved of oxygen"

Good to know he doesn't think he has anything important to say in anything he does. Means I won't bother to read his stuff or watch anything based on it.

Your art always makes me smile when it comes across my feed!

Will definitely try to commission something next time I see you open!

The open source community actually made things mostly work, while corporates made things that barely work and don't do 95% of what I need them to do.

Hell, I had to keep changing the name of my living room because Alexa would eventually start hallucinating what I was saying to turn things on.

If I hack things together I can tolerate flakiness as I know it's my glitches.

If I buy a thing from a real company, it needs to work perfectly like 99% of the time.

This is why I love hone assistant and despise both Google home and Alexa.

I change the name on the thing, and add the dead name as an alternate.

Try to reroute the package to a pickup spot.

It show the wrong one on the confirmation page.

Restart do it again.

It finally shows the right one.

0/10 process I hate every step of this.

I try to change the name on the one I subscribed on, and it says this name already exists.

I change the name in the second one and try again

This name already exists

I have to Google for instructions on how to delete a profile.

They are wrong.

I eventually find the button and kill it.

So I sign in and pay for a 20$ ups my choice subscription so I can hopefully just fix these issues for a year. They apply this upgrade to the wrong version of my address so the package I want to change doesn't show up as it's under a different first name.

I paid UPS 6$ to expedite a package that didn't require a signature so it wouldn't be left on the doorstop for a weekend.

Apparently they decided this meant that it needed a signature so they didn't actually leave it on the doorstep today.

Somehow turbotax wanted 2.5x the actual amount and had no actual plausible explanation of the difference.

Then in the second program misread what "basis" meant for an inherited 401k..

After fixing that checkbox I think it was right. At least I got the same answer twice.

Finally finished doing my taxes last night >.<

Unfortunately I had to give more money to be wasted by this government bombing civilians.

But at least I got out of giving TurboTax the 200$ they wanted to enter my numbers wrong...

Not that I had apparently watched any of their content since the previous Russian incursion into Ukraine....

I apparently was subscribed to a Russian propaganda YouTube war reporter for years and didn't realize it until the sudden influx of pro Russia video titles at the beginning of the current Russian incursion into Ukraine >.<

Instructions unclear, wears orange shirt.

I guess I'm doing the driving for my household since I have an electric car >.<

It's the unsearchable edge case of errors that I only realized when I sent the variables to my account to my telegram bot.

"'"device.name"'"

Hours in to the home automation project to make only the things in the same room as the speaker you talked to trigger, I found my problem...

I used quotes to define the things in my if statement of targets...

Absolutely required if you have separate words, but break everything without spaces.

So the same as the timeline for them to have nukes.

I always figured the fear mongering about nukes in x months was just how long it takes to make a nuke program.

The current generation always gets blame for being different when it was the previous generation that made them that way.

Happy birthday week! Put that bar to good use!

The biggest cause of antisemitism this century is Israel doing unhinged shit and then claiming all Jews support their atrocities with their Zionist propaganda.

Heck they even claim that complaining about their propaganda and their atrocities is antisemitic!

I cried so much when my 15 year old cat had to get surgery for a urinary tract blockage last year.

So many hugs for you and your kitty!

Needs more deflection, "I'm sorry you were offended by whatever it was that I did."

When I went to vote in the primaries yesterday there was someone trying to vote in person because they hadn't gotten the mail in ballot they requested yet.

It had apparently been sent out one day before. So 6 days into early voting for them to even send it, and a week to get it and send it back.

My spouse made me bet with them on the behavior of one specific member of the house, they have $5 on them walking out. I have $5 on them sitting there pretending it's absolutely normal.

I'd love to be proved wrong.

(Absolutely no democrat should even consider attending this farce)

Hey yall this is your chance to show the trans community you really are an ally and you're not just saying it for brownie points!!

-Do not support ANY of this
-JK Rowling has said on numerous occasions that her income goes DIRECTLY into anti-trans legislation in the UK
-Seriously. NONE. Of it.
