If James Joyce discussed etymology with Gertrude Stein

The top right one looks like Stewie from family guy and for the life of me I can't even say why

I really hate/love that is is what actually put the size of those container ships in perspective for me. I've seen the massive liquid natural gas tankers and those things are terrifying big but like... I still didn't get the scale of these. Thanks sci-fi (look you guys that box set of TOS pays off irl!!!) 🤪

(Fr tho, anyone else have that set with the plastic curved cases with one of the uniform colors for each season? Prtty curves, infuriating snag-the-case,drop-the-DVD-on-the-floor-and-swear-and-snag-the-insert-pamphlet-closing-it-up-every-singlegoddang-time. But prtty curves)

As others said, house centipede! Yours looks freaky AF, but generally when they aren't... FLESHY ugh shudder, they are pretty cute little fuzzy guys! Like little dachshund/robot/Roomba/bug hybrids with a mission to patrol and keep the mean bugs away from you. Smol friend!

Guy my sister used to like apparently used to, as a VERY small child ... maim/decapitate chicks. He has no memory of doing this but it freaked his mother out. I was told that he earnestly avowed "But I don't do that ANY MORE!"

He ended up becoming a butcher, I'm dead serious. Apparently a really calm and protective and caring guy?

This is the kind of stuff that contributed to my decision to never have kids. Way too big of a risk 😬

I'm working on a robotics ai project as a hobbyist and I was really surprised at how affordable some of these quadruped robots have become. The one I would like to eventually try is between $1600 and $2k (USD) but the models in the $500-$1000 look darn good to. Having smaller boards for multiple ai processes to run together is really changing th feasibility of projects quickly.

Thank you! You just saved me, hydration-wise.

I finally got up the motivation to use the nice water bottle I have (I needed to wash it and so it was just sitting on my bedside table for like 2 weeks and I've been thirsty and just sipping from tiny cups). Had gone out to fill it up, put it on the counter, went into the bathroom and promptly forgot it existed. Read your post, laughed to myself about how I'm the same way, and then nearly went back to bed without my water bottle. Literally the only reason I remembered it at all is thanks to you.

Hate the executive dysfunction shit. When I went of my psych I had no idea what was wrong with me and my main complaint was that I could be really thirsty and unable to make myself drink the water I wanted :(

I think it's also partially about taking something that can be associated with ... rednecks/middle America/conservatives I guess, and using it as a vehicle to try to reset people's initial reactions against stuff that would be in their interest (unions for example). It doesn't seem like it's a concerted effort to actually reach that group, so right now it's leftist memes for leftists but the potential for puncturing someone's insular bubble Via familiar substrate for the message has interesting potential!
