    Just saw some guy assert nativism is more rational today than it was in 1920 because Italians don’t commit crimes but Haitians do. Yeah man, totally. Not like there was a very infamous Italian crime syndicate that ran the east coast or anything like that

    Aw man. My Thinkpad X201 died. It only blinks the Wifi LED wildly and has a spinning fan on startup. I bought it used 10 years ago. Gonna need a new used.

    I'm low-key considering buying a car seat instead of a new office chair. I rather build a platform for the car seat than waste yet again over 200 bucks for a sub-par "ergonomic" office chair with worse butt comfort. I just looked-up car seats in my local listings and a whole set of two front seats and the backseat row can be bought for 100.

      @adiwan My high school girlfriend's dad did exactly that for their family's computer chairs, it can actually work out *incredibly* well, totally a good project idea. I've even been thinking about it as my desk chair starts wearing out....

      @scribus I think we live on a planet similar to Frogstar from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy https://hitchhikers.fandom.com/wiki/Frogstar_World_B Instead of shoes it's office chairs. I've never had an office chair that was of sufficient quality. Even my current one had the problem that its cushioning was almost nonexistent after half a year.
      Before I buy a car seat I try to repair the cushions by stuffing a gel or silicone pillow into, anything that survives long butt-to-cushion interactions. I already have a silicone pillow that I put on top but it tends to slide off more times I can tolerate.

    Got myself a nice dark brown leather jacket at the flea market for 15€. Cannot complain for that price and basically pristine condition. That would be probably 5 times new in store. It has a high collar with an integrated scarf and it has a removable insert for extra warmth during Winter. I'm not a fan of the collar but it's not that bad not to wear. I have leather jackets for warmer weather already, so I can slowly retire my really old black felt Winter coat.

    you ever take the wrong train from the airport and now you gotta act like you totally meant to come to this city with a suitcase just so you can sit on a bench and wait for the next train in the direction you just came from

      @zeldatra Only when I'm supposed to meet a man with white shoes and two cigarettes. His name is Thomas, and he will be expecting the codephrase. If Thomas is not present within 2 minutes of the arranged meeting time, I am to board the return train and . . . Uhh, wait....

    I think there should be a SSN lottery to determine who gets to sit behind the president and tell them what a real citizen really thinks for a week. And probably some other positions, too. Let's draw a few dozen numbers a week and have them really give the buttheads a thorough job review. Speaker, veep, SCOTUS, all the bigwig secretaries. There should be enough positions that you have pretty good odds of being heard somewhere once an administration. I foresee no way in which this would go catastrophically awry, nor be an unmanageable behemoth of a bureau.

    for the first time ever my store ran out of Diet Mountain Dew and apparently it’s because JD Vance claimed the left wanted to get rid of it and schizophrenic Facebook boomers just believed him?

    Every time it rains I put some buckets outside to collect rain water that I put into a rain water barrel. Just from today's rain I collected almost 100l (26 US liquid gallons).

    HELP. I bought more tomato seeds for next year. I bought "Ananas Noire", "Purple Sunrise", "Osu Blue" and some other. They look visually appealing. "Purple Sunrise" is dark pruple on top and yellow on the bottom. Wanna taste the sunrise.

    Ananas-lime lemonade is not good. I like them both individually but combined it tastes very off.
