Sounds like a lovely Monday.

Need to zoom out to reveal they’re going a finonacci sequence. 1, 1, 2…

They had a blinding stew. A 1 day blinding stew. A stew that blinds for 1 day. They were fed a 1 day blinding stew.

Interesting. I obviously knew most weren’t his but a few surprised me, like Apples and Bananas. Not about to rabbit hole down trying to find the history behind them, though!

As others say, premades are generally less healthy and carry more preservatives like sodium. I personally keep them on hand anyway in case I need something in a pinch, but even then I have a few easy meals if foods are stocked (like carbonara, which i make tonight!)

If you do go frozen for the wife, be sure to check what you’re getting. My step father has been having heart issues lately and I don’t think he realized his diet of mostly frozen dishes were putting him at like 300%+ daily intake of salt.

That was the suggestion I was going to make! They have always been burpy and silly and “Job’s Done!” and all that. Even the sheep will bleat out a Babe reference with enough clicks!

What perplexes me is, this guy came up with a ton of songs that are regularly on my kids rotation, but I’ve never, ever seen him credited.

I just can’t sacrifice entire weekends to reading webcomics like I used to…

I’m glad you’re at least willing to see what’s worse. Maybe we’ll be pleasantly surprised by her policies regarding Isreal-- I did hear recently that only 17% of Israelis want Harris, vs (I think it was) 63% for Trump and his “finish the job” rhetoric. So if Israel hates her, that’s probably a good sign.

Thanks for your thread, I also have to upgrade my Blade 15. It automatically installed Windows 11 which broke the built in monitor (lol). Let me know if you have any success with these comments’ suggestions!

Same. It’s almost okay, except it makes me angry. Lol

As a professional in education policy, I’ll let you know that K-12 is pretty terrible. It didn’t work for me especially for exactly these reasons and by 9th grade I was burnt out and stopped doing all homework. Thanks to grade inflation, I still got Cs (they have me a C on a quiz I drew a doodle on instead of answering questions on a book I didn’t read).

I still got a PhD, but it took community college (and transferred) and the slightly higher respect for me as a person helped tons. There are still shitty instructors at that level, but you have a better chance to avoid them if you navigate the system carefully.

In other words, you’ll run into crap like this plenty but even in a worst case scenario, as long as your kid is still smart they’ll ultimate have more chances. (Also don’t forget internal motivation, validation from teachers is hit or miss but if they do something they like themselves that should also not be diminished).

Only correct answer, yes.

I generally don’t trust .io for that particular reason. It’s the Steve Jobs of the world picking that for buzz; the Steve Wozniaks of the world would simply choose .org.

And…, to make sure my joke didn’t lead me to find it Woz had a fucking io website, I looked it up and his personal cite is fucking org. Lol

A stupid article akin to someone on Lemmy misunderstanding an idium and going “well actually…”.

And that’s coming from me, a person who likes knowing how insanely unlikely it is a guess ever longer and longer pass phrases. A computer trying to brute force Hamlet would also fail before the heat death of the universe (probably, anyway- do the math and you too can publish junk!).

Aka most AI startups.

I’ve seen it once, although more recently met a Genevieve which feels even rarer and just as pretty.

Sleep got a lot better for me when I followed medical advice and avoided my bed for anything but sleep (and the other thing, lol). Your brain needs to not associate your bed with work, school, video games, etc., so it can work as a trigger. Ever since I did that, I sleep within minutes of laying down.

Not any worse that my first time voting, Starbucks gave us a free small black coffee. They didn’t do it to bribe back then, too.
