I’ve spent 20 something years ostensibly working 9 - 5. But most of those years I’ve also on call for server downtime, and crunch-time is sometimes a thing.

Wow. Very much the same. I always ate in order of texture, from worst to best. Now my favorite meals are things I generously call “burrito bowls”, when they’re just a bunch of stuff that tastes good together, mixed together.
The Jetsons promised me single pills that were full meals. Where are my meal pills?


Are they going to remake that 1 mobile billboard that’s been doing laps of the LV Strip for at least 30 years, with the same 3 bikini-clad women?


We should encourage kids to smoke to deal with their stress.


Quick! Someone call Tendi.


What about Kai Winn? She called everyone her child.


Man, I really need to do a rewatch. I just looked up Vic Fontaine and he’s introduced later in the series than I remember.


Everyone’s fondness for a 60s era Vegas lounge singer program means none of them have a leg to stand.
If memory serves that’s the program that they’re referencing here.


Soon I’ll be 2 seasons behind on For All Mankind and I’m thinking about a rewatch of some or all of DS9 instead.
Or Farscape, I think I’m overdue for a Farscape run.


I didn’t need more reasons to not go to Disney*, but I’ll add this to the pile.


Gigawatt Data Center



A timely and well executed reference, for sure.


As a kid I burned the bottom of my foot (enough to cause blistering) on fresh blacktop in Palm Springs. They had just opened the repaved parking lot in the full SoCal summer heat when we pulled in to go to the bank. I took 2 steps: the first adhered my flip-flip firmly to the asphalt and the second took my foot out of said flip-flop and landed it right on crazy hot and sticky surface.


Akin to that old astronaut joke, “My life depended on 150,000 pieces of equipment – each bought from the lowest bidder.”


It’s been a long 'oke,
getting from there…
… to here.


We had Amelia Earhart, so this doesn’t seem hard to believe.
Also I want to believe that the Washington Generals still exist in the 24th, even if Washington does not.

Thankfully ublock works just fine in Firefox for android and its derivatives. I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t use the mobile web either without it, and then my phone would exist only to mfa things at work.


I’d imagine ublock origin could forever close that pop-up.
