Windows 10 goes out of support today. My fave useless fact about w10 is that the iconic blue desktop background is a *photograph* - not CGI.

Somebody got Raptured from the parking garage… 🪽

A pair of empty converse are lined up neatly pointing towards the driver’s door of a white suv in a parking garage as if their owner has been either vaporized or whisked away to heaven.

I got a picture with some random sumo wrestlers on my first trip to Japan back in the day, thanks to the family friend who was showing me around Tokyo, and basically shoved me at them. They were very gracious about it. 😂

Omg I love it. Instagram fed me some airport shots of them which were very cute but this is even more charming.

I’m so so sorry for your loss. It’s such a hard thing even when it’s the right thing.

If you’re ever in Santa Fe, there’s a shop there that does amazing hot chocolate, some of it deliciously spicy.

Hard disagree. My family suffering through the unabridged version on audio during a very long road trip through Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky is something we still talk about to this day. Oof. Although I do agree a laugh track would have really improved the experience.

Runners - and their shadows - cross a sunlit stretch of the #ChicagoMarathon course in Pilsen.

Fellow weebs and weeb-adjacent, I realized the Nodame Cantabile live-action is on US Netflix and it is, imho, one of the best-done manga-to-live adaptations ever. Go watch it! 🎹🎼🎵
