Better cut funding since they’re not doing their job.
Also a long time fan - seen his act live 4 times lol. I can relate to missing some things - it took me 30 years to get the joke in “She Never Told Me She Was A Mime” - and it’s in the title. There are some absolute gems hiding in the earlier albums. I’ll Be Mellow When I’m Dead, One More Minute, and Stuck In A Closet With Vanna White are all standouts for me.
One that really came out of left field for me was Skipper Dan. It felt like I was simultaneously being called out and heard. Subtle genius.
Just watch it.
Ok, you convinced me.

Depression has now been augmented with Appreciation For Al.
As an American a couple months out from not being able to pay housing costs, I appreciate the empathy. Sorry about the cultural exports that have been going north.
Oh lord, this is the worst news to come from this week.
It was a high bar, but they cleared it.
They did (in the US). Bain Capital bled them dry and then sold off the scraps. There have been a few attempts to revive the brand but to my knowledge nothing has stuck yet.
Saw this posted recently and it fits quite nicely.
Link to the mentioned video. I can’t recommend this enough. It’s really well done.
At least as happy as Ceres. People non-nerds still remember Pluto.

Highly recommended watch.

What do you mean? Society has been treating it for generations.
“Who’s my good little sociopath? Line go up? Line go up? Good boy, that poor deserved it! Here’s a treat.”
Leftover rains from hurricane “Tempest” (they/them), have inundated all major watersheds along the eastern seaboard. Over 6% of i95 is under water or inaccessible due to floods and damage. Cities near rivers by the coast are now a part of “the delta”.
I’m in this comment and I don’t like it one bit.
A lot of folks on here want to worry about how their computer is working. This is very time consuming and can be pretty frustrating to manage on your own.
Add 25 years of IT work, and I now have zero interest in doing computer stuff as a hobby anymore. I used to love tinkering. Had multi-boot systems, spun up VMs just because I could, turned a minitower into a JBOD SCSI enclosure, etc. Now I just want stuff to work without fucking with it. That used to be Apple… and while they’ve gotten away from that a fair amount it’s still head and shoulders above Microsoft and Google.
If big tech gets awful enough that I have to consider brushing up on Linux, I might as well just fuck off into the woods and see if I can make friends with some raccoons or something. I’m tired, man.
The best defense against a bad guy with a joint is a good guy with a joint.
I’m not a fan of pot but your logic is flawless.
Plot twist: this Pikachu was brown, “loitering,” and subsequently tased.
There’s that pesky cost of doing business again.
