Old guy rang my doorbell, said "Sorry, wrong house", walked off. Wife noticed him all wobbly on the Ring cam, I went to check on him. He was lying in the street bloodied up. Called 911, got him on the sidewalk & waited with him. EMS arrived. Guy thinks he's in one city over & that it's February.

That said, it'd be good if it would discriminate between reposts and quote posts. If you want to add something to a repost, I'm in. If I see the same repost from you 12 damn times without anything additional, I don't want to see your constant reposts all in a row.

here's a fun stat for the orbital data center curious: Google's latest analysis of launch prices for space data centers suggests Starship will have to fly 1,800 times to drive the learning curve for cost reductions down to $200 per kg. techcrunch.com/2026/10/01/g...

Name a quote from a rock and roll track. How years ago in days of old, when magic filled the air 'Twas in the darkest depths of Mordor, I met a girl so fair But Gollum, and the evil one, crept up and slipped away with her Her, her, yeah Ah, there's nothing I can do now I guess I'll keep on

This shouldn't have to happen in this country. It's very saddening. I've pitched in, though. You should too.

I fixed ice makers for a group of topless bars in the late 80s. The stuff you see... Oddest work moment: Me, Vint Cerf, and the Dalai Lama bet on a made-up billiards game being played by Buddhist monks while I made Mr. Cerf an espresso.

I used to give money to NPR on the regular. What's with these dogshit engagement bait "articles" lately?

A proposed first-of-its kind tax would target California's nearly 250 billionaires in an effort to fund health care. If voters pass it, will the state's economy suffer?

I read Ready Player One and I know what an Orc is, therefore I feel qualified to safeguard the lives of millions of people. Only question now is how to keep the Cheeto dust off the flight progress strips...

Grandpa needs meds & a nap. Also, needs his finger off the nuclear button. And jail. In fact, let's just do jail and call it even.

He really likes this phrase “transgender for everyone” and I have no idea what he thinks that means. Is he trying to convince people they’re going to be forced to be trans or something?

Could things not get worse for, like, a day or two? Just a couple days, that's all I ask.

There was just a locally acquired case of dengue fever reported in Virginia, USA. The climate is becoming more suitable, the compatible mosquito species (Aedes) is already there, and we’ll likely see more cases across a wider area. Link: tinyurl.com/2pu4xrc5

my neighborhood 7-11 closed a couple years ago and tried to reopen but couldn’t get the permit approved because there’s a preschool next door and 7-11s sell alcohol (the previous permit was grandfathered in). i saw a fence going up around the lot recently and looked up what was moving in: a gun shop

It was either that or "The Full-Custom Gospel Sounds of the Reverend Horton Heat", if only because of the song "Nurture My Pig" and how much my wife hates me singing along to it (which is impossible not to do). I listened to both relentlessly. Horton Heat was good for late-night coding sessions.

The Shining. Scared the hell out of 12 year old me. My grandmother was an odd lady.

Do you remember what *your* first R-rated movie was? I finally asked my mom (I couldn't remember), and she told me it was The Lost Boys when I was roughly the same age as my daughter (about 9). The movie traumatized her more than it did me, apparently
