I decided to start learning Japanese kanji this week for no particular reason - I learned about wanikani.com and it just seemed fun. I now “know” the 46 main hiragana, the meaning of 25 radicals, and am learning the meaning and pronunciation of some initial kanji. It’s really fun!
This is proving to be the alternate reality version of the album I’ve been hearing about for 34 years.
(I love the substitution of Sears tower for the Monument.)
Longing for the swift and sudden death of meme culture. Fuck this garbage.
Oh damn, you just broke the news for me, and two of my bandmates volunteer there! LOL. As I live in DT St. Paul, this is personally very exciting to me - much, much closer!
Incredibly illuminating to compare income and hours worked across countries and states for ***the bottom 95% of earners only***. The typical Belgian earns as much as the typical Californian but works about 24% less

Also pardon me, an adult male, who watches new episodes of Shrinking on Apple TV every Wednesday primarily to see my hilarious and gorgeous actress crush Jessica Williams on screen.
It’s embarrassing to say out loud, but I think Jimmy would be supportive of it.
Pardon me, an adult male who purchased a vinyl copy of Paul’s Boutique last week.
WAXING AND MILKING.
Me pretending I’m not old: “What’s a check? You mean like this ✅?”
Without congressional approval. Stolen taxpayer funds.
Jeff Bezos TOOK THE CHILD TAX CREDIT?? Do you know how sick you have to be to claim that amount of pocket change when you’re a gazillionaire?
I am the least rugged person I know.
The one I knew was a welder/laborer/volunteer firefighter/Boy Scout leader. According to the obituary of the one I didn’t know (despite passing away just last year), a former member of the Air Force and “many jobs,” the last of which was in pest control.
There’s currently no social feed like the Minneapolis/St. Paul social feed. Chronological, full of interesting strangers and people I’d be likely to friend, informative, funny, and fun. A microcosm of what the internet is supposed to be.
Good advice. January gutted me and I finished zero books in February.
Imagine if we established term limits for public office so people would always speak their mind, not just when they’re in their way out the door.
JD Vance has a beard. Can he convince anyone he’s not three AI agents in a suit?
Me, an aesthete: Dude was rendered gender neutral by the landmark television show, Hey Dude
Anyway, I too want to relive better times.
Ah, yes, it was the merchandise and store design that was the root of the problem. Much clear-headed leadership! Such visionary!
I like Senators with foresight.
That’d be Angie Craig
Does anyone want to cover the HOA and also the mortgage for me?
Oh to be a conspiracy theorist with a Covid-addled brain and the internet in the palm of your hand. A surefire way to win a cabinet position!
It makes me insane really that every weekend this city has at least half a dozen makers markets at breweries that cost $100-200 to table in for a few hours AND a zillion empty storefronts but somehow we can't find a way to merge these two things bc the empty storefronts are all giant & expensive.
This analysis is how they get ya. Random-ass 8-12” snowfall sure to come sometime in March or April.
Someone gave infinite monkeys infinite typewriters to write this timeline.
The Department of War sure is allergic to having Congress declare one.
Oh my god I just want a fucking bus that goes north every 15 minutes from my house. Stop spending all my fucking money on missiles you fucking pedophiles. This fucking country.
I'm furious at every single person who put this man back in office.
