@octothorpe I think i just gave up faster.

@octothorpe I expect so little from Apple anymore.

@octothorpe Please tell me they wear little stuffed animals as jockeys

@octothorpe I don’t think so… I could be wrong!

Quick search. I AM!

“Brace Yourselves for 2024: A Devastating Break-Up, a Long-Awaited Takedown and a Sinfully Delightful New Couple” - Bold and the Beautiful

Watching West Wing S1E12 and Barlet is watching a soap opera and I can only imagine trying to explain to someone now, let alone in another 5 years what a soap opera even is.

“You mean there are at any given time, 3-5 ish shows that never had reruns? 5 episodes a week 52 weeks a year? 3-5 or so?”

“Yup.”

“No reruns? If you missed it, that was that?”

“Gone forever.”

@octothorpe @nuthatch LOL Yup

@nuthatch @octothorpe It's gotta be light enough to lift up to press the power button.... what a weird placement.

also yes it's super cute and now I'm like hhmmm I can still return my M2 for a full refund (my saga of the old one dying) and come out net positive spend wise.

@icanzilb I think you're right

I admit I’ve succumbed more than I like so this is a good chance to move my shopping from Amazon.

I tried a year or so ago and did ok, but slipped back into old habits.

Watching oligarchs pick our country apart and seeing people cry that giving up free shipping is a bridge too far is just... ugh.

Talk about the most convoluted way to make a purchase.

Also, i guess use weird crappy web3 shit to buy what I can only assume is a weird crappy thing made of stolen IP.

This is Bruce. He’s an emotional support duck. #milehicon #writersofmastodon

@octothorpe vibrating with rage

@octothorpe YUP!! it's gross. I might have to tune out NPR for the next 2 weeks. They’ve set up camp in one of these places and are talking to the worst possible humans who spout the most bullshit of excuses for being undecided.

Undecided voters don't care about the future. They're not out there saying "Neither candidate has offered a roadmap.”

Because it's bullshit. One has. The other hasn't.

These people are shitty people and they're weighing if they can vote Trump and not face consequences.

I fucking hate that we even let these people be a factor. Fuck the electoral college.

@octothorpe That sums up my feelings on the show as well. I kept trying and every time it was “The Michael show” which yay strong female lead, but Janeway didn’t do it herself she had a team.

I’m happy for those that like that, but it never resonated with me.
