This is why I struggle so much with basically all ‘feel good’ viral things. It just becomes a giant circle- jerk of self-congratulations. Like the ice bucket challenge was great in the instances where people actually made a donation after their Facebook video, but otherwise it’s just more ‘loooook at meeeeee’ (which,…

God. EVERYTHING is for “support,” even when that support literally does nothing.

Facebook or any social media “campaigns” are FUCKING STUPID.

Tangentially related, but interesting if you’re interested in the lives of women like Ada Lovelace:

Are the figures fusionable like transformers? Can I make a Sugilite if I buy Garnet and Amethyst?

But will it include Ranger Guy?

Frank Lloyd Wright’s granddaughter had an architecture firm, in my hometown, in an alley behind where I scooped ice cream in high school. She always accused us of stealing her mail for no reason. One night I was scooping mint chocolate ice cream and I was thinking - “Min....” to her completing my sentence - as she…

I know the red brick was added, but I think it looks good. The inside looks like a lot of the period elements were maintained.

The problem is guns. Not mental illness, not misogyny, not male entitlement. Those are other problems, with other solutions. The problem causing mass shootings is guns.

What a wonderful scam, the bottled water scam. A couple decades ago, people drank tap water, and if it was nasty tasting, there were/are filters, or you could do like we did when I was a kid, drink it really cold (although I also drank water out of a garden hose, so there’s that). Now everyone thinks that the only…

Indeed. A friend's future ex-wife decided on the spur of the moment to take the streetcar to her wedding rather than sit her ass down in the limo waiting outside her door. The St. Charles Streetcar. In her wedding gown. We were all waiting around for the bride to arrive (30 minutes late and counting) when we saw her…

We don’t get weddings, but TONS of birthday and soccer parties where people assume they can walk into a first come first served seating restaurant that doesn’t do reservations with thirty kids and be accommodated, or calling to have fifteen pizzas delivered in ten minutes, four hours before our delivery service…

First Question: You can’t eat/ have issues with dairy. You have two dessert options, cheesecake and strawberry ice. Which option is best for you?

And that there’s more than one way to cook eggs. RECOMMENCE THE EGG WARS, BRING IT, MOTHERFUCKERS.

Plainly we need a highly trained agency based on Blade Runner, but instead of replicants they hunt dumbasses. They’d be equipped with tranquilizer guns and trained to do voight-kampff like tests to determine if the subject was mentally equipped to interact with society. Nothing bad would happen to them, they just…

Ya gotta understand that these people start out as a baseline thinking that they’re the hero of the story and the entire human race are background characters, so when they get into a situation where even normal, well adjusted people can get kind of self centered (like a wedding) they basically implode into black holes…

RE: The Wedding Pity Party

The Bollywood costume was made for Madhuri Dixit in Devdas, but apparently it was too heavy for her to dance in. I found this promo photo.

OR. How about just instituting a much wider range of sizes, keeping them consistent across different products, and letting me buy a fucking large or a small so it’ll fit how I want it.
