If this isn’t the grossest thing I’ve ever written I’m disgusted in myself

Comic. [Person and person with white hat facing two boxes stacked with $80 price tag and sale tag on each box.] PERSON 1: They want $80 for this? I could make one myself for $10 in parts, an hour of work, a trip to the hardware store, another $30 in parts, another few hours of work, two more trips to the store for $20 more in parts, another hour of work to redo the first hour of work because I messed up, and $80 to buy this when the one I made breaks.

I remember when I got Vlad first I figured at some point I'd get bored of watching him sleep or potter about outside doing nothing, but you just don't, do you? It's just as cute when they're sleeping the millionth time as it was the first.

I bring a sort of Forbidden Vibe to InternalServerError that Rate Limit Exceeded don't really like

Isn't it common in a lot of east coast states that portion require a worker to pump for you? Or I feel like that used to be the case. Could be that he's never pumped his own petrol in his life.

I absolutely hate that anyone feels the need to participate in vehicular cycling, but this video really "drives" home the geometry problem of cars in cities.

Does anyone know of any free online portfolio sites, for showing graphic design work?

Two doors - the ‘male’ entrance is wide and square like a door. The ‘woman’ entrance is a cutout of a very thin long haired woman in heels.

This cartoon by Naked Pastor is SO GOOD. Sums up what I’ve been saying for ages about what happens when you start gatekeeping womanhood (and spoiler alert it’s the opposite of feminism).

Anyone know if there is secure bike parking near the Sugar Club? @irishcyclingcmpn.bsky.social

I'm no fan of giving more money to these lads, but I would be in favour of grants to electrify their businesses. I'd rather a "buy once cry once" type deal than continuing to fork out any time they think the price is too high.

In today's Irish Times, I unpack the many layers of irony associated with the fuel protests over the past week. The government's €750 million financial package to cut fuel prices adds to the ~€4.8 billion in public finance lost each year to fossil fuel subsidies.

I did not, but I'll probably go see it regardless so I'll save myself from any spoilers

language is amazing, you can combine words in all kinds of ways

Why do these property owners get a free pass when there's a potential €3.7m for public coffers and 100 potential homes for homeless people??

There's an instinct to blame the left that these agri protests are often right wing or led by people who are right wing cause "the left" didn't engage but that ignores that many of these people have their own conservative to right wing ideologies.

Sitka Spruce is a Boreal forest tree! Planting it in Ireland is a classic embodiment of the lazy Irish ‘feck it that’ll do’ attitude that does more to oppress ourselves more than anything the Brits could have done.

Every month your income is being drained more efficiently than ever before in human history because your access to culture and the tools you need to survive are gatekept by an increasing breadth and depth of professional ticket-clippers. Profit is the only optimisation function still respected.

I made a video about this. what do you know.

After watching both Project Hail Mary and The Martian, I think Andy Weir likes humanity, but also wants to be far away from people.

Depends on how long they keep it too. I don't honestly know, that's why I'm asking.

Ok but, there could be a logic to Kodak doing covid tests depending on the chemistry/clean room requirements etc. It's a lateral leap, but I could see it. Like if a car company pivoted to making military equipment in WW2 or sth. This is a clothing company moving to computing. It's nonsensical.

Is it possible to check whether someone has voted in an election? Like obviously not *who* they voted for but if they were present at the polling station?
