A pie to eat every day? Pumpkin!
Special occasion pies? Cherry, apple, banana cream.

A true pie 🧵
Do I think apple pie is lesser pie? Yes, I do. Will I eat all of it and often direct from the pan? Also, yes.
Apple pie is bad. This is not really debatable. So is key lime pie, while we’re on the topic. Pecan pie is the 🐐 tho.

This is why I cannot trust ChatGPT output. It's the insane hallucinations it outputs.
Like, no actual human would say this. I know we're in crazy times and all, but this is just so far over the line for it to be real.

One of the reasons I love live call-in radio shows is for moments like this.
Poor Richard thought he was talking to a call screener.
He was actually talking live on air to Alberta At Noon host @kathleenpetty.bsky.social, who gently and professionally nudged him toward that realization.
Turn 🔊 on:

This is how Canadians know that it's American Thanksgiving.
"As God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly" is one of the greatest sitcom lines ever delivered
47 years ago today, dozens of turkeys met their unfortunate demise in a Cincinnati parking lot.

Agreed fully with this thread, it's worth the read through.
A theory about vibes:
Human beings are deeply social creatures. Our need for a legible social order is rooted almost as deeply in our brainstem as our need for basic physical security. We need -- not want, need -- to understand who's in charge, who are allies, who are enemies, *how things work*.

My advice to everyone. Never, ever wipe your old phone until you have verified that everything has migrated to your new phone.
Don't do trade-ins. Ever.
You need to keep both phones for as long as it takes to verify everything you rely on has migrated, or you learn a way to back it up.

Awesome thread 🧵 about hippos.
I have been doing entirely too much earnest posting about deep things recently, I need to do a proper thread about hippo testicles or something just to keep myself sane.
Oh by the way hippos have migratory testicles.
