Are we shoveling/snowblowing this blizzard or just waiting for it to melt in 2-3 days?

@midwestern_ope Lifelong Midwesterner here: do NOT wave people through at a 4 way unless it’s genuinely not clear who got there first. Otherwise just follow the correct order and stop making it needlessly confusing.

Midwest Red Flags: 1. Doesn’t put plate face down in trash with unfinished food 2. Don’t wave people through 4-way stops 3. Doesn’t “Ope, sorry” 4. Thinks that any trip over 10 hours is too far to drive

@JuMosq Insanely narrow definition of “market” on these games - needs to at least be statewide.

@RIPReggieK @mattschneidman Remember how he was our only touchdown tonight? Good hands and good instincts on a catch in open field but every wrong instinct possible for ST.

@mattlindner Perfect. Just need a few truck dealership sponsorships and a strip club or two.

The year is 2029. The Chicago Bears are playing at Uncle Sam’s Fireworks Store Stadium in Merrillville. It has a retractable roof sponsored by the Hell is Real billboard. The halftime show is presented by a rotating cast of personal injury law firms.

Poundcake is feeling great and having fun exploring the rescue 🥹 He found a good nap spot by the laundry but only if the blinds are shut because he is *terrified* of seeing moving vehicles, which is fair

@MKENewYorker The first time I was in Chicago (which functions similarly pedestrian-wise) with a friend from CA I spent a lot of time having to go oh no you can’t - no they don’t care they are going to run you over

There are happy tears in my eyes as I type this... WALTER has been ADOPTED! 😭🩷 Walter is a 14 y/o cat who was found near death back in February. He fought hard and had an amazing turnaround. And now, he finally gets his happily ever after 🥹 Congrats, Walter! We love you! 🩷

I am so, so excited to share that LUKE was ADOPTED last weekend! 😭🩷 For almost a year, Luke waited desperately for someone to want him. He longed for his own home, his own people, his own things. He just wanted to be loved. You finally got it, buddy. Happy Tails, Luke 🥹

@ellenlynch @james_f_thomas I mean as a hot sleeper: not necessarily? I completely get the temptation to try this but also reading basically any reviews is enough to be like nope.

after I stopped laughing, I got curious about how a bed-cooling system would work, so I started researching and I learned: 1) it's basically a glorified waterbed 2) the EightSleep subreddit is an addictive read. you cannot even begin to imagine all the ways this bed malfunctions
Theo - t3.gg@theo

Woke up because my AI controlled bed is too cold. Went to adjust temperature and I can’t because the Eight Sleep app is currently broken. Can’t adjust by hand because I have a Pod3, not the upgraded Pod4 with physical controls. Now I am stuck in a cold bed. This feels dystopian.
