Yeah, they’re both pieces of shit but Trump is fundamentally pretty lazy… remember when he rode around in a golf cart when he met with the G7 and they walked through Sicily?

Musk is doing a great job of taking the flak for super unpopular shit that Trump wants to do, AND he seems like he’s actually motivated to put in the work.

And Gen X gets completely forgotten, as usual.

A lot of Japanese bidets have a water AND seat heating feature, no need for hot water hookup. I know it seems expensive but it’s very well-made and I’m very happy with mine.

Have you eaten any fruit off your yuzu yet? It’s about the only edible citrus I can grow outdoors in my area. I’ve thought about giving it a shot, but I’m also not psyched about the idea of spending years growing a tree just to realize I don’t like the fruit! I used to live in Japan, really should have tried it while I was there. Much harder to find in America I think.

China ranks second in the world in human population, too.

Every tech product update: “Exciting news, we’ve now incorporated AI!” Me: Cool, how do I disable it?

I don’t expect shit from anyone. That said, when I’m at one I’m still going to ask if there are options, because why wouldn’t I?

Probably not a popular view here but I’ve found my hobbies more fulfilling since I started doing stuff other than gaming. Native plant/food gardening, reading books, working out… all of this stuff can be affected by capitalism too of course but I’m less beholden to it. I still game a bit now and then but much less than I used to.
