I think they have been putting something like that up for a while. Traditionally, college students from GW, Georgetown, American and Catholic descend on the White House once the race is called to celebrate. I’m sure plenty of other people are there too, but it was overwhelmingly harmless undergrads when I was there.

I am joining the dark side on this one. It’s justified when they are slowing down everyones commute.

Love this! Normal people would be straining to hear in these situations.

People on their phones while driving. Aside from the danger it poses, I have been stuck at a light behind someone who is obviously scrolling on their phone and then doesn’t realize the light has turned green. Sometime this lasts for 10-20 seconds, which is a lifetime when trying to efficiently move through a series of stop lights. I’m not an aggressive horn honker, and I feel like an asshole if I have to use it. But if you are fucking with the flow of traffic you deserve it.

Autocorrect has gotten significantly worse for me recently. I used to be pretty well adjusted to my phone and know which words I did not need to capitalize/spell correctly because autocorrect would do it for me. Now, it feels like it is all over the place. It also does not seem to acknowledge commonly used proper nouns anymore. I type my brother’s name all the time, yet it will autocorrect to the same name witn different spelling.

1-3 Amazing costume idea for dedicated person with makeup skills. 4 But where do I get a crocodile?

That was uncalled for. Accurate. But uncalled for.

To be fair, that is not an exhaustive list of cars on the road today. My husbands passenger seat of his 2023 car is the bane of my existence. No way to adjust the headrest aside from up and down and unless I tilt the seat way back, it feels like OP’s drawing.

Exactly! They are the absolute worst on long flights. I can manage the limited leg room. But why the fuck does my head need to be pushed 2 inches ahead of my back and shoulders? And why can’t those flaps on the side of the head rest be more substantial so you can rest your head to either side at least? My strategy has been to lift the headrest as high as it will go, and usually I am short enough for it to clear my head so I can have some semblance of comfort.

This reminds me of the children’s book Corduroy about a stuffed animal that gets left on the shelf because his overalls are missing a button. I blame that book for my irrational dedication to inanimate objects.

I would agree change is hard. And I believe change is inevitable. But is all of it really necessary?

We are self-aware beings that can evaluate what technology has done and is going to do to individuals and society at large. Metrics for attention span, reading comprehension, social connection, and many more things are trending in damgerous directions already. Some change is not necessary and is objectively doing more harm than good.

“The day God Intervened July 18, 2024” That makes me fucking sick. What a pretentious asswipe.

Is history repeating itself this blatantly? And the people who are voting for him still believe they are morally correct.

This man has clearly never met a lesbian before.

Well, now I’m sad.

Can you explain this one?

What an absolutely horrific change in her day to day life over the course of a few short weeks. I hope she recovers quickly, although I hear that burn recovery is brutal and that her boyfriend goes to prison forever for such a malicious act.

30th St Station in Philly, and I’m sure many other train stations in the world, has a similar layout with stairs down to the tracks. And has benches along the railing. The benches don’t obstruct the movement of people going up or down the stairs, but start from the top of the stairs and sit along the unused space to the sides of the stairs. The line to show tickets forms to one side of the stairs so that while passengers leaving the train can go up the stairs on their right the passengers joing can go down on their right. If you are early to your train, you can sit right there in the front of the line on a comfortable bench, and the line can form behind you.

Was going to say with all of the episode of Dr. Who, it had to be in one of them.
