To those giving you shit about cutting horrible people out of your life and saying you need to go visit...

Bullshit. Fuck that noise. I have family that I've cut out as well (although, luckily, not my parents). I'm 100% open to them rejoining my life, but their hatred for others is stronger than their love for me, and I won't allow them back until that changes. Spoiler alert: it probably never will, because there's no love like Christian "love".

"Agree to disagree" is reserved for things like "I don't like coffee." Not racism, homophobia, and sexism. Not human rights. Not basic common decency. If I unfriend you during this, it IS personal. We do not have a difference of opinion. We have a difference in morality.

I fucking hate these "personality assessments". This is from one I just took the other day. One of around 50 questions.

I do Top/6hrs, but will jump over to Hot if I've been scrolling too long and run out of content.

I heard this in my head to the beat of "The hand that feeds," and it actually works pretty well lol

Just have to watch the drop boxes to make sure no one lights them on fire.

We've been dealing with this shit for far too fucking long...

Really fucking cool.

heatwaves everywhere.....

Agreed. Some numbers for Phoenix this year -

70
The number of days this year of 110° or hotter, which is a new record. The previous record was 55 days, set in 2023

138
The number of days this year of 100° or hotter. The current record is 145 days, set in 2020. We are going to cool down a bit after the weekend, so we'll be sitting at about 142. But, the latest we've ever had a 100° day is October 27th, so we've still got an outside shot at setting a new record.

113
The number of consecutive days this year of 100° or hotter. The previous record was 76 days, set in 1993.

16
The number of current days in a row of setting / tying a new all-time high each day. This streak started on September 25th 23rd and is expected to go through Monday, likely putting the total at 20. The previous record anywhere in the US for a streak like this was 14, set in Iowa in 1936 during the Dust Bowl.

Yeah, I'm neurodivergent and have a terrible memory. My life is full of alarms and notes and reminders for everything, otherwise nothing gets done.

While I'm well aware of the insidiousness of tech's ever increasing privacy violations, I also look forward to things like AI being able to function as a full blown personal assistant to help me run my life.

Number 3!

Yup. For those that don't know, that's essentially how utf-8 works -

There's one in Arizona heading north between Phoenix and Tucson that says 951 miles behind you.

Sorry, I agree with you. It reminded me of this line from Biden during the 2020 debate with Trump. It had similar energy to what you're saying and just cut through Trump's bullshit to highlight what we were all thinking.

Will you shut up, man?

Nope. Just keep pumping more CO2 into the atmosphere by running our air conditioners 24/7. I'm sure it'll be fine...

Google Gemini - "provide a synopsis of this video"

This video is about the difficulty of obtaining ADHD medication and the dangers of resorting to black market alternatives. The speaker, Benn Jordan, describes his experience of being diagnosed with ADHD and then struggling to get the medication he needs. He explains that there is a shortage of ADHD stimulants, and that the DEA has made it difficult for doctors to prescribe them. This has led to a black market for ADHD medication, which can be dangerous because the pills may be counterfeit or laced with other substances. The video also discusses the risks of not being treated for ADHD, such as increased car accidents, substance abuse, and suicide. The speaker concludes by calling on the government to make it easier for people to get the medication they need. Here are the key points:

• The speaker was diagnosed with ADHD and had trouble getting the medication he needed.
• There is a shortage of ADHD stimulants due to DEA regulations.
• People are resorting to the black market to get ADHD medication, which is dangerous.
• Untreated ADHD can lead to serious health problems.
• The speaker believes the government should make it easier to get ADHD medication.
