I remember this movie a little differently.

The movie title says GONE BABY GONE.

The description says: When Santa comes down with a cold, it's up to the PAW Patrol to save Christmas and show everyone the true meaning of the season.

congrats on your house! it’s been so nice catching up. absolutely. and thank you for leaving Alex Edelman off your top comedy specials of last year. I really appreciate that. One last question for you: what do you think about Bill Burr’s year? I think he’s taken the biggest hit out of this Riyadh comedy festival thing.

Oh, I have been really surprised by how much he’s kept talking about it.
I was shocked to see his name on it. I got offered this thing way in the beginning and I just saw the name and rules and was like, “no, absolutely not.” I was not thinking it would be a real thing. I was thinking, this isn’t going to happen. Who would say yes to this? And then I saw the announcement and realized, everybody said yes to this.

This made me laugh this week:

"So sad that this generation of white boys cope with loneliness by turning into incels… whatever happened to sitting ur ass down and writing a song called Iris? Putting pen to paper about how down bad you are? Let’s bring that back."

I'm sort of allergic to doing cool things where I have to dress up and look glamorous...which is how I've ended up making my friends go to Times Square's Margaritaville for my bachelorette party

This is an actual attempt at democratic deliberation within an organization where members will weigh in. And that's actually a good thing.

While this all looks and feels very messy for NYC-DSA, it certainly beats the current system where almost everything is done behind closed doors at the behest of consultants & the only choice Democratic voters are given are to either get in line or zone the fuck out.

Every Windows 11 PC is now an Al
PC with Copilot at the center of
it all.
Here's how to get rid of Copilot
completely from your computer
(1/3)

ABI Bouhmaida
@forgoodcode
1/ Settings App
> Personalization
> Taskbar
> Other System Tray Icons
> Switch "Microsoft 365 Copilot App" Off
This hides Copilot from your
taskbar

$(9) ABI Bouhmaida @forgoodcode 2/ Press Win + R > Type in ‘regedit’ > Navigate to "HKEY _CURRENT_USER\ Software \ Policie s\Microsoft\ Windows" > Right-click on the "Windows" Key > New > Key > Name the new key "WindowsCopilot’ > Right-click on the new key EY > DWORD (32-bit) Value$ @forgoodcode
3/
> Name the value
"TurnOffWindowsCopilot’
> Double-click the name of the value
> Set the "Value Data" to 1
> Restart your computer
Congrats! Copilot is now completely
gone from your computer.
Hope this helps

If we go on strike, our union of 12,000 workers are calling on customers to NOT BUY STARBUCKS.

Sign our pledge to not cross a picket line and we'll send you local calls to action - nocontractnocoffee.org

Her ability to hate only got sharper as she aged, which makes her at 87, the most brutal scalpel there ever was. She's an inspiration. If only we could all live so long and hate so well

“whatever club he’s invited to join has been devalued by the invitation”

Tweet by Joyce Carol Oates:

"wherever he goes, he wants to leave"--that's because when he gets there, he has brought his own self along; & whatever club he's invited to join has been devalued by the invitation.

QT of @avidreader1000
Wherever he goes, he wants to leave: SA, Canada, ultimately the U.S. in the long run, based on his behavior. This also includes Earth. A continuous disavowal of your home is odd, to say the least. He seems to have no c...
