Why work at a steady pace toward a quality product in a timely and low stress manner when you could instead be paralyzed by executive function until the last possible moment that you could still turn in a minimally acceptable product after working in a furious panic?

Is this supposed to be another ‘loss’ cartoon? Damn, fell for it again.

If a claymore mine had a love child with Pusheen

What series is this from?

Reminds me of the plot line in early seasons of Mad Men where Betty would go to a shrink, then later that night Don would call the doc to see what all Betty said.

Speculation: it’s probably easier to convince a legislature to appropriate money for something you’ve already been buying for a decade than for something you’ve never bought and used before.

There is a time and a place where it is appropriate to post pictures of yourself using the head. It’s called niche pornography on OnlyFans or PornHub, not LinkedIn.

Shame about The Residence, I really liked that one.

Cat 1’s inability to understand boundaries with cat 3. He (cat 1) gets along great with cat 2, and he thinks cat 3 is also his best friend, but cat 3? She hates him (he doesn’t respect her boundaries). And he tries to play with her in the middle of the night which means we get woken up by hissing and yelling and whatnot.

I love cat 1, don’t get me wrong. But he’s like a big dumb puppy in the shape of a cat.

Cat 1 - being picked up. Usually makes him very squirmy.

Cat 2 - being petted when she didn’t initiate affection.

Cat 3 - interacting with cat 1, she doesn’t like him, especially not in close proximity, which he hasn’t picked up on despite her hissing and smacking him regularly for the last seven years

Ah fiddlesticks. I generally enjoyed it, but oh well.

One of the cats went to the vet for a teeth cleaning and came through it fine.

I will be starting Hacks season 4 tonight. I hope it’s good!

Ya know, I remember watching Breaking Bad and thinking it was odd that the international contact was in Czech Republic.

I haven’t had cable in more than a decade. Even if I still had it (or satellite), there’s not much overlap between music I enjoy and what seems to be popular with the 18-25 set today (I’m in my mid 40s).

Makes me wonder how far off the mark TCU was…

A Firefly prequel set during the migration from Earth that was to the ‘verse would be pretty interesting. Then again for all I know there’s a comic or novel prequel covering that?

The largest age gap I’ve been involved with was about 4 years. I was 31, she was 35, and we lasted about three months. Current partner and I are about 1.5 years apart.

If I were single and interested in dating, I think the lowest age I’d be willing to go is half my age plus 7. Someone at the absolute lowest end of that range would need to check a lot of other boxes for me to be willing. Most I’d be willing to go over my age is about 10 years.

But frankly, if I were single, I’d probably just stop the online dating thing and live my best life on my own, and if I met someone who was interested cool, and if not it ain’t the end of the world.

Same here. It’s been reasonably effective too.

How did you find the job?

Do they pay you pretty well?
