One time I went to the restaurant DAMON BAEHREL. I was informed afterwards that it had a 10-year waiting list and only seated 100 people a month. Despite having regularly commuted between the Midwest and the East Coast, getting there felt like the longest road trip I’ve ever taken since I had to go with my mother-in-law and some of it is on a gravel road.

I had to Google DAMON BAEHREL to spell it and I’m not going to bother retyping it.

It was far and away the most pretentious, absurd, cartoonishly fancy experience I’ve ever had, and I’ve dressed up in antique ceremonial Moroccan robes for a banquet at the art museum in the city I grew up in. At the art museum I sat next to the mayor’s mother in a room of 200 people conversely, about 30 people total could fit into DAMON BAEHREL.

I thought the art museum banquet was fancy, but when I was little I thought Boston Market and IBC root beer were fancy.

DAMON BAEHREL was the kind of place that serves a dozen ‘courses’ but each one is like one cracker one sliver of cheese and one spritz of condiment with maybe a sliver of sausage made from some bespoke farm animal. He insisted that the water we were drinking was actually unreduced tree sap. Everything was served on various slabs of wood some with the bark still on it. The slabs were so much larger than the food It looked like putting a coin on a serving platter for each course.

I just felt embarrassed every time I looked at the Damon and his staff. They had clearly heard his bullshit so many times that it was hard for them to feign credulity anymore.

Anyway, that shit was way too fancy for me. Clearly it was just wasted on me.

“turn the volume to infinite” this right here is what he was talking about

When I saw my first textbook that had an XKCD comic in it I had A little bit of a squeal of joy. I’m old What do I know.

Over clocked remix

“Holmgard and beyond! That’s where the winds will us guide!!”

Havin a baeg of baegs is just one of those things you do in the Midwest. Donchya know

He also has a completely unhinged video about a unibikal I’m sure I misspelled that but I know that’s what he made because he’s completely unhinged.

I love this video so much but his entire channel is amazing.

The running of a super Nintendo game on Nintendo is batshit insane. This guy understands computer science and engineering in a way that makes it just seem like magic to me, and I’m a computer scientist who works as an engineer.

An immersion blender, it was $30 but it made my soups seem gourmet and let me recycle my gallons of lard into the best soap I have ever used.

Aside from that, I replaced two of my mismatched odd shaped PC monitors with 27" 4k monitors and the difference is amazing. The monitors were so cheap too only $110 each. Together with my super fancy main screens it really cleaned up the desktop.

There was a pretty great episode of Stargate that explained why offering a defensive technology like that is still offensive support.

In that circumstance we (earth) were literally just powering a shield and the good guys decided to stop supplying the fuel to power that shield because it turns out it was being used to defend the aggressive Nazi-like-analogs that were actually the instigators of the conflict.

Almost any adjective works. It’s the ‘you’ part that implies ire and intended denigration.

You incredible sock! You blind carrot! You empty bottle! You missing tooth! You complete thumb! You glazed pie! You stewed milk! You wet sandwich! You frosted toenail! You waxy discharge! You nauseous chifferobe!

Okay maybe not every one of them works but I think most of the time you can just put on a bad attitude and attach a adjective to an object to create some rare insults.

Kahn is the real deal. I hope Harris keeps her and gives her anything she asks for.

Lina Kahn could be the trust buster we need to get America’s shit together and maybe reign in some of these big businesses that seem to be completely above the law.

You can save different identities using one password and then every time you sit down at your computer you can just make up new details for those identities in one password so that when you go to the mall, You’re not always Chungus McGrungledunk, but sometimes they’re going to be offering a free trial to, Faurtstick Blastschish or whatever name I give the email address I spin up for the purpose.

It’s good to register a burner domain that you don’t care about and once you have the processed enough different identities through it simply stop renewing it and sign up for new one.

Is she from the Maxx? It was an animated show on MTV a long time ago. Her name is Sarah and there’s a whole part where she gets a gun to defend herself but she always comes across as a little bit deranged.

He asked for kidney beans on toast not kidney on toast!

No, the IDF is much worse.

Is this one of them pokey mans?

It shows that there’s a diverse party of people that are trying to lead America into the future and a party that only has a plan to rule America into the ground.

Obviously Republicans that aren’t willing to sell out their country for a chance to kiss the ring are looking for some way to distinguish themselves from their treasonous brethren.

If you don’t like paying for the mistakes of law enforcement, legislate punishment on law enforcement that makes mistakes!

When it’s a judge you have to vote them out (usually), and since they were voted in you have to punish the taxpayer for making such a boneheaded mistake.

It’s a taxpayer votes in this chuckle fucker again and maybe we need to punish them that much harder.

The government has the money to spare otherwise they would stop fucking up so goddamn always.
