I hate to be such a nit picky bitch (jk I love it) but it irks me when people say “powderpuff girls” instead of “powerpuff.” I know you’re thinking well how often does someone even bring up or mention that cartoon? A lot apparently! Because three times this week someone has said powderpuff instead!!

Been watching The Inspector Lynley Mysteries on Britbox and I have a major problem: Lynley's hair looks like its been boot blacked and the styling is beyond awful. I realize I am being incredibly petty, but I can't help it.

I was outlining a new short story and the words were flowing, character-specific quotes were plopping on the page, my typing fingers were tingling with delight!

And I ended up plotting a novel. 🙄

Saw a movie post about a film that I am a detractor for. But I did not comment.

Rage posting is the tool of the enemy. We do not use it. We do not *need* it.

The shingles vaccine could lay me out for a week and I'd prefer that to shingles.
All over my FB people talking about their bad experiences with shingles vax and dissuading each other from getting it! We need to give people real info on how to mitigate the symtoms caused by vaccines because vaccines are always better than meeting a virus unprepared. Yet drs aren't coaching ppl

I ask myself what we’d do if we were starting The Verge from scratch today all the time. It hasn’t been “start a big website” for a while, but only recently has the answer been more interesting than renting space on someone else’s algorithmic platform!
> if we were starting over today i think we'd start a bsky server instead of a website

epic sentence, there's a strong case for evolving sites like @theverge.com into more than just news portals

we've seen a version of this before with flipboard.social, but curious to see this built with atproto!
there is more than interest, there are like, very aggressive plans. ;) just a complicated thing to do when you have a 15 year archive and lots of dependencies. if we were starting over today i think we'd start a bsky server instead of a website

While I was in our home office, typing up minutes for a board meeting, my husband texted me this photo. The red line is pointing to a suet cake. 😅

Remember, if you've ever wondered why PS1 games feel like they have odd control schemes, it's because the PS1 originally did not launch with joysticks on the controller. They came later. So even though many later games could use joysticks, all games needed to be made thinking they weren't there.

I lost my job, there are no toys on the shelves, and the only hospital within 100 miles of my house just closed. But at least I know that now there won't be any non-binary characters on Paw Patrol.
