12 years ago, I had my first realization that there is more to life than working shit jobs to pay for things I don't even need. Kinda surreal looking back because I remember typing this status like it was yesterday

@wonderofscience We're all just things trying to make ourselves feel comfortable on this crazy planet

Rescued baby sea otter Joey loves chomping on ice cubes. Wildlife sanctuaries offer ice cubes to rescued sea otters for enrichment and helping them stay cool in warm weather. 📽: Marine Mammal Rescue Centre

@bismanblog @MattHar65517869 If you grew up in the 90's with your parents working paycheck-to-paycheck, you'd quickly learn that the check was either "coming today or tomorrow." Rarely, it'd take a 3rd day. In that era, you just planned around this stuff. Time was just slower then

@MattHar65517869 Yeah, but your grand plan implies you trust the United States Postal Service to deliver your checks to their intended recipients on time, if at all. That’s its fatal flaw.

I'm so tired of creating accounts for every single bill. Insurance, hydro, internet, gas. Passwords, user names, 2-factor authorisations. I've decided I'm making everyone send me a paper bill and I'm going to pay by check. Enough with all the log-ins and texts to my phone.

@byesline What sport? You didn't clarify

I can’t believe I’m even going to ask this but we’re having a split debate behind the scenes at station… If the Denver Broncos played the Colorado Rockies 162 times would the football players win a single game?

@MensHumor I get the sentiment but I think it's just an overplanning issue. Just find one app, get comfortable with it and avoid decision fatigue from too many choices

I'm with her on this one. Plane tickets are laptop purchases.

@BenjaminDEKR Same reason they have doormen. Welcoming first impression amongst other reason

What is the point of hotel check-in desk people anymore? Why isn't this 100% automated? Verify your ID, pay, get entry code. Why are humans still doing this?

@Getthebagcoach Limited point of view. AirBnBs are good for longer term travelers who want to "feel at home" at cook their own food. Hotels are good for vacations or not wanting anything to do with anything AirBnB related

I remember at one point people said they would rather an Airbnb than a hotel….. The hotel option has always been 100000% the better option

@bluhbonk @ByMattWild Milwaukee. It's just on Oakland ave, lol

@ByMattWild the hottest gyro in the land....OAKLAND

You wanted the best you got the best

@nocontextmemes I used to think that EVERY flight I was on was always early. Until I realized that the times you see on the ticket are gate-to-gate. Not takeoff to landing 🤣

@camouflybeats Certified banger though

genuinely how the FUCK did Boys Noize even come up with this . in 2007 mind you

@ryanmcfadden_ No one wants to talk about this but there are ballers who play very well without pads. The ones in the NFL are the ones who are good in pads

Just turned on this flag football game. Can someone explain to me how the NFL players are losing this bad?

@letsrolepod @Degen_CPA Ya, people like to shit on a place without actually having lived there. Opinion on something they haven't experienced. Incredible really

@Degen_CPA 99.9% of the dudes in these replies have never been in Thailand for more than 2 weeks. Stop getting your information from Hollywood movies and x comments. When I got out of the army I spent a year backpacking and in my 2 months in Thailand met some incredibly serious dudes.

Doesn’t offset the downside of living in Thailand

@4evrnyt @grantcohn You underestimate the amount of jet sweeps this guy is gonna run

@grantcohn 4.5 million is too much for a guy who literally only returns kicks.

The 49ers should have paid him. He's an elite returner.

@techdroider Nah, after 2 years with the boxy design, I've realized the rounded corners have greatly been missed

Samsung's biggest mistake was making the S24 Ultra too good. Titanium frame, sharp boxy design, beautiful colors, best anti-reflective display, and even Bluetooth in the S Pen. Now the S26 Ultra somehow feels like a downgrade. When you set the bar that high, people expect the next phone to be better. Samsung forgot that part.

@jayvraavi Met a few people on there, honestly one of the best apps for travelers

nomadtable might actually be the most active IRL meetup app in Bangkok (not counting dating apps)

@levirelates Depends on if I have luggage or not 🤣

Uber driver: *drops me off at the wrong location* Me (shy): “This is perfect”

@beyoncegarden You just had to be there bro

this is kinda crazy like why was this a thing😭

@tenobrus So there was zero recorded usage online from 2004-2006? And that proves it wasn't used before, in all of history?

this sounds like a bad fucking joke but i just found out that the phrase "bucket list" was genuinely popularized by the *2007 movie*, there are zero recorded usages of it prior to 2006. feel like im losing my mind

@KryDotExe @TwitchSupport @Twitch Drink a Mt. Dew verification can

Twitch continues to deteriorate as a platform because what do you mean I can't TAB OUT TO MY SECOND MONITOR DURING THE AD BREAK I NEED TO FOCUS THE TAB AND THE WINDOW FOR THE AD TO PLAY?????? @TwitchSupport @Twitch what the actual fuck is wrong with you

@20thcentury WHAT! Is this only US or are there other countries?

The first rule is back. Fight Club returns to theaters in 4K for one night only on April 22. Bring the film home May 12 on 4K Ultra HD Steelbook and 4K Digital.

@financedystop They've had robots like this as early as 2019 when I saw one at an airport in Seoul. Experienced my first hotel robot in China in like 2022 or 2023. It's super interesting how it can navigate the elevators, especially.

You request amenities at a hotel in Tokyo, Japan and this is what shows up. Blue collar jobs are not safe from the inevitable Ai takeover
