Well, and they largely haven't up till now so...

I really wish it had gone further, but maybe they couldn't get the support for it, but it's frustrating that it only says that states have to recognize legally performed marriages, not that states are required to make marriages legal in their state. :nono: But it *is* something. Just feels like a st...

Joseph Mawle comments: https://twitter.com/realjosephmawle/status/1598380117872545818 I loved my time exploring middle earth and diving into Tolkien’s mythology. I’m so honoured that the character was liked. He cared deeply about telling you his story. Though as an actor it remains my wish, my job ...

On a more serious note, I've found Twitter to be an invaluable source of information during disasters. The local sheriff's departments, Offices of Emergency Management, police and fire departments all post information about road closures and evacuations to Twitter. Often the Twitter feeds update fa...

nonono the real victims here are people trying to make contemporary art and being foiled by the speed of change

Looks like the head of lettuce is set to win yet another race.

Thought I'd share this - I might go poking around just to see it

Pretty sure the obvious answer is that no, she did not realize it, hence her post

okay absolutely wracking my brain and can't figure out who on earth TFG is???

The crabs is a reference to, I want to say, April Fool's Day? When you could 'summon' a 🦀 in your browser screen in seemingly infinite amounts until the only thing limiting your ability to summon more was they obscured the button you had to hit. There was more to it but people genuinely loved their ...

I've seen enough clips to almost want to watch a few characters' scenes, but I don't have a Prime account and have no real interest in watching the actual show. But that is probably more because I have so little interest in "TV" in general than for any specific reason associated with the s...

I realize that the answer is "you're not a battleground state so there's no drama to be had" but I am both irritated and amused that Washington - a 100% vote-by-mail state, apparently also has no voter fraud, no problems with election rigging, no 'voting day' drama... because there's nothi...

If the ballot arrived before deadline why does it need a date? In my state the dating is required only for a witness, and a witness is only required (and otherwise completely ignored) if the voter can't sign and has to make a mark. I'm guessing this is one of those laws that was implemented so they...

Just last Thursday, before all of this whiskey met tango foxtrot, I was in a meeting discussing productivity reports, and was making fire pronouncements. "Beware," said I, "for you get what you measure. I still remember when they used to pay programmers based on lines of code they wr...

From a gentile perspective I think it's easy to look at such things from a detached and academic interest because it isn't such a viscerally personal thing to us. We can look at something and go "oh that's probably bad" but we aren't going to have that instant deep gut revulsion to it. I d...

I think art should certainly challenge conceptions and push boundaries and make people uncomfortable. But sometimes shock just for the sake of shock isn't overall a positive thing. That's not to say it shouldn't exist, just - not every shock is pushing toward a better result or a greater understandi...
