Holy shit. Remind me never to get divorced, my income tax rate would almost double. 

The only thing from 1903 that is still bugging me is the VPN problem. Unless the credentials are saved, clicking Connect on a VPN in the Networks pop-up doesn’t connect - you have to open the Networks Control Panel, go to the VPN tab, and connect from there.

Dude. Buddy. Friend of mine. It may fall slightly outside the strict definition of “candy”, but you absolutely must try Frozen Ding-Dongs. They become absolutely transcendent.

We’re getting ready to move into a new office (I’m spending all next week running network wiring with my boss, oh joy). Someone decided that since it’s an open plan, with low “cube” walls (really just 2' partitions so you don’t have to stare at your coworkers), they’re putting in a “sound masking system”. I’m told…

I haven’t noticed that one, but the Daily Treasure right next to it is completely borked. It’ll work for one day, then you have to close the game and restart it (generally not a problem, given how memory-aggressive it is) before it’ll even show properly anymore.

He also played Batou in the live-action Ghost in the Shell.

Arya as a character is 18. HBO tweeted something to that effect before the show aired. Maisie the actress is 22. There is no dangerous ground here except what you bring with you. Congratulations, now you know what it feels like to be a parent, just a little.

I used to laugh like hell at The Ballad of Irving by Frank Gallup. Then adult me listened to it and realized how incredibly anti-semitic it is.

What, I’m old.

I’d like to entirely disagree with the author. My wife and I own two weighted blankets - a 20lb for me and a 12lb for her. Recently we had a cat pass on, and her final gift to us was peeing all over the bed, right where the two blankets were lined up against each other. We dumped baking soda on the wet parts and set…

Read the fucking article. That’s NOT his picture.

I’ve got a box full of old Volksmarch medals from my dad when he was stationed in Germany. Stuff like the below. They’re pretty but I have no idea what to do with them.

That’s not El-ahrairah, that’s the Black Rabbit of Inle. 

Check the plates on the cars causing the problems - they’re probably Illinois drivers. Also avoid any car that has a JoyFM 99.1 sticker. We hates them, precious.

I wish more people knew the story of that Australian dude. https://www.salon.com/2017/10/18/peter-norman-john-carlos-tommie-smith-raising-their-fists-white-man/

Oh god.

GET YOUR TITS OFF MY TANK.

Are we sure about that? Ford told Bernard to lie about the subject. Immediately before he spouted that off.

It’s like in The Happening. The Earth is trying to warn us by making geologic noises that make us sick.

OK, Miss Hunniset is just adorable when in civvies, but once she’s in the wig and makeup, it all goes straight into the uncanny valley for me. The video less so, seeing her move, but the still in the header is right there in the dead center of “Is this computer-generated, or painted, or real?” It’s ... uncanny, it is.
