I'm Canadian, so I might be wrong, but it seems to me that anything less than an actual marked ballot for the Democratic nominee for president is a vote for every last terrible thing in Project 2025. Don't like the nominee? Suck it up, buttercup: this time you're voting just so you can vote in 2028.

Hey Silk, the new packaging for your oat milk sucks! Used to have the calories per 250mL large and on the front of the carton; now it's only available in the mandatory Nutritional Information section. And the Unsweetened is now 80 calories, versus 70 before.

Is there a term for words that have more than one pronunciation (not including regional variation), like sow, bow, read, lead, desert, etc.?

I see from various posts that today is Create a Bad Comic Day or some such. About which I can only imagine The Vancouver Sun's terrible "political cartoonist" Graham Harrop is thinking, "Amateurs! Try *every* cartoon being bad!" tl;dr Harrop's "political cartoonist" are always offensively terrible.

I absolutely DETEST how Biden is handling Israel / Palestine, but to protest it by NOT voting abandons everything else, so I'm going to move the needle where I can. That's what the dumb-ass American system demands. MOVE THE NEEDLE WHERE YOU CAN.

I know being a grammar and spelling pedant is classist and shitty but I still want to beg the denizens of Facebook gardening groups (and possibly autocorrect in all its forms) to understand that “perennial” and “perineal” are two very different words.

i think we should stop giving our ai bots female names (alexa, siri) and give them names from the old white boys club (john, james, chad) in honor of how overconfident and annoying they are even when they’re completely wrong or making stuff up

LOL. The RI DMV doesn't want to be restrained from disallowing registration of small Japanese ("kei") trucks because "the proposed bill would restrain the DMV’s ability to further eliminate unsafe vehicles from the public roadways of the state.” My brother in christ, you register giant pickups.

Rhode Island Is Trying To Ban Kei Trucks Againwww.thedrive.com Unlike last time, though, Kei car owners have some congressional support against the RI DMV.

Books designed to be read only by human eyes are different from books designed to be read by machines, which is why Google will tell you that the phrase “shake my booty” can be found in an 1863 English translation of Don Quixote.

The so called paradox of tolerance is resolved when you see tolerance as a social contract: if you break the contract, you are no longer party to it. Simple as.

The thing about Joe Biden being an elderly man with a poor memory is that his likely opponent is an elderly man with a poor memory who has been indicted for 91 felonies and found liable for rape

Having issues with TRaSH guides for *arrs on Unraid and serverbuilds.net's "auto-mounting Linux filesystems" guide on a Ubuntu box for Plex transcoding not playing nicely together. One says "make sure 'use hard links' is on," the other recommends to turn them off to solve the 'not updating' problem.

why do polls always ask the wrong questions and give incomplete response choices? it's like they want them to be ignored.

As my brother notes, Identifont sorta sucks. Give it the letters you have, and it almost universally fails to ask anything specific about those letters. What we need is "Aidentifont," which would be an almost ideal use of AI.

End of feed.
