Meme of the absolutely colossal Ever Given ship grounded with a huge excavator that looks tiny working valiantly to try to dig it out, tiny scoop by tiny scoop. Text on the ship says “You are not obligated to complete the work”. Text lower down by the backhoe reads, “But neither are you free to desist from it.”

This Pirkei Avot quote helps me feel a little less like I have to solve everything (it’s literally been thousands of years of people feeling overwhelmed!) and it cracked me up when someone stuck it on the pics of the tiny backhoe trying to dig out the EverGiven ship when it got stuck.

That’s a steal. Our county liquor stores apparently have a few bottles of 40 year old Balvenie priced at $8500 a pop

No butter now for a start. I’m glad they’re successful enough to have centralized prep work for the yogurt sauce and bread but it’s just not what it used to be

My niche reaction is that’s just not been the same since they stopped making the bread on site just in time

something to be said for trump's effectiveness at fucking over literally all his major voting demographics at once. i didnt think he'd hit the rural EV/electricity haters so hard

Well it went from being a primary area of bipartisan consensus between right and left to being secondary to Islamophobia in that role

besides the point I know, but having moved away from LA in 1992, my immediate reaction was goodness Zev's aged a bit -and I shall not be pursuing that line of thought any further.

The reason I do not fall for scams as an adult is because I was innoculated with a weak strain of scam as a child.

apparently they saw the tropes about pedos and abusers approaching kids from vans with candy or ice cream and decided they'd lean into their inner talents.

every part of that documentary that involved British and Australian cricketers whining because they didn't like getting their own medicine (in family size doses) is extremely entertaining.

he would have been in his early 60s at the time & this was a wild new idea to him, partly because his self-absorption has rarely progressed to self-criticism

ages ago, I remember talking to my father in law about something similar and saying that the challenge of parenting esp our older daughter was that the things that irritated me most about her were the things that irritated me most about myself. Devastating.

I have to admit my interest in seeing Scotland play in person plummeted with games in Foxboro. Seattle and Vancouver would have been pretty ideal, I might have gone just to hang out, but…

Napoleon low key the funniest guy in European history because he was like “what if I promoted officers based on how good they were at army and recruited troops who actually liked my country“ and it was basically the same as unleashing Godzilla.

You’d think that they’d run the train for getting people to and from the stadium, but who knows. I don’t think they’ve resolved that funding conflict yet
