I suspect part of how annoying those labels feel is us being a little unsettled by just how many things around us might be killing us.

Do these designers not have children? Wiping pee off the seat is like an every time thing; seems silly not to just use a bit of toilet paper.

Even I have to clean up when I miss; which happens max, max, 95% of the time.

"He was a person with a deep sense of empathy and clear passion for improving access to care. Our hearts are with his family and his colleagues during this difficult time."

Really?

Saw right through that beard too.

Sometimes I need to see the twitter feeds of people like this, as a reminder of exactly what women mean when they talk about men being scum.

Sometimes it hurts to be generalized into a category I don’t feel I belong to and it’s tempting to push back, but knowing that people are out there spending what appears to be all of their free time being horrible online and harassing women is a good reminder that women are pretty justified in having a low opinion of men in general.

Now I can go back to pretending twitter doesn’t exist for a while again.

No kidding, I had a brief moment where I hated him slightly less but then I remembered all the tangible harm he has done and it went away.

Damn. I liked Perplexity. Sucks to delete it, but this guy can fuck directly off.

This is a weird way to say “Trump backs out of debating Harris on ABC”.

I dislike the narrative that you can’t be happy as an adult. Yeah having nothing to do and no responsibilities was cool, but I would not trade what I have now to have it back.

Adult me has an awesome wife and kids, good friends, hobbies that I wouldn’t have dreamed of as a kid, a tool bench full of fun power tools, and freedom to use my free time basically however I want.

I am way happier as an adult than I was as a teenager.

Tribespeople became so addicted that Marubo leaders, fearing that history and culture — which is passed down orally — could be lost forever, they have now limited access to the internet for two hours each morning, five hours each evening, and all day Sunday.

That is still so much internet, we would probably all be healthier following that guideline.

This layout makes sense if you have used an old school mp3 player or similar.

Volume is left and right because it’s an analog of the volume bar on the screen.

Up and down is previous and next because play was controlled by a list UI so you were moving a cursor up and down between songs.

It’s not how I personally would prefer it, but it’s not as outlandish as it seems.

The worst part is that this isn’t new behavior. Musk pulled this same shit at the Tesla factories; forbidding safety yellow from being used, having the warning alarms disabled on forklifts because it annoyed him, etc.

I am glad the veil has been lifted for more people though so they can see Musk for who he always has been.
