  • I used slack for about 4 years and it was the best. Had everything you could ever want for that sort of thing. As a graphic designer, I took pride in creating hilarious representations of my team mates as emojis for all to share. Then I changed jobs and started using Teams. It’s like… Why even bother? Let’s just go back to physical letters and phone calls while we’re at it. Except, that would be more reliable.

    I used to be disgusted that people didn’t seem to care that they were risking their own privacy and national security to boot. But then I remembered that our own government won’t do anything to keep our individual privacy in check from corporations. So as long as that’s the case, I don’t see why anyone should give a fuck. The government did this to themselves.

    Malcolm in the middle was always excellent for showing exaggerated examples of realistic family meals. For breakfast the kids are all eating some kind of sugary cereal and maybe some orange juice and dad is running as fast as he can to grab coffee and go burning himself in the process. Or on the occasion they make a nice weekend breakfast, the older boys grab most of the food and there’s almost nothing left for Dewey. If that show could manage to come up with a multitude of family meal scenarios over the course of the show, why can’t people writing movie scripts write one single semi-realistic scene? This trope bugs me just as much as hanging up without concluding the call.

    It depends on the laws in the state/county/city. In the worst case scenario, you could serve jail time. In the best case scenario, you stay away from that town and nothing happens. In the medium case scenario, the municipality sends it to collections where you’ll then be harassed and/or dinged on your credit report.







  • My parent’s dog is like this. He hates winter because he’s always cold and shivering. He shivers so much, that they have to give him more food, or he’ll lose too much weight. Now you might say “why don’t they give him a sweater or a blanket”? Well they do and they’ve tried to convince him that these things keep him warm. But he’s also kind of dumb and will remove any sweater when you’re not looking and he’ll only stay under blankets if you sit with him. So instead they’ve resorted to having a plug in heater he can go sit by if he wants to. But he doesn’t always seem to remember it’s there and shivers anyway.
