There really is a XKCD for everything.
I am careening towards the elderly part faster than I would like. But maybe we got along so well because of some autistic synergy.
I knew him quite well. He is very autistic and just as equally nice.
I once had an autistic, elderly man living above my room. Whenever I sneezed, I would hear “gesundheit” from the ceiling.
“The aristocrats!”

I just noticed this on our calendar and had to wonder if the boss of the calendar company made them put this here.
Edit: Wikipedia says it is real:
Boss’s Day (also written Bosses Day or Boss’ Day) is generally observed on October 16 in the United States. It has been pitched as a day for employees to thank their bosses for being kind and fair throughout the year.
Samosas with spanakopita filling. I call them spanakomosas.
The size should be appropriate for the vessel. Things in the front require constant attention while the rear takes care of itself.


All you can eat sushi. It doesn’t need to be great, just all I can eat.
Yeah, the last time they charged was Snow Leopard in 2009. Everything has all been free since. Snow Leopard was really a dream to use, though. If paying $30 would get us back to that kind of luxury, I would gladly pay for the privilege.
Something may have been lost in translation. The general topic here is about people cooking food for themselves and I was contributing the point of view that isn’t always a feasible reality. I do still often make people nice, home cooked meals working with whatever we have, but I get why some usually don’t.
Places I stayed in Japan and China had no kitchens (or pathetic, unusable kitchens). I consider myself a good cook and I like to prepare nice meals for people around the world when I stay with them, but honestly, there are places all over that is a challenge.
I worked at a shelter and one night an indigenous man had a heart attack. An elder came in later that day, lit some sage and smudged the place. At one point she stopped, and ushered something unseen out the back door.
The guy wasn’t dead. He was stabilized at the hospital. He returned to the shelter that night.
I generally enjoy and appreciate these rituals for bringing the community together and collectively processing grief and reminding us we are all important to each other. I am even giving her the benefit that she maybe performed this extra bit only to bring peace to those experiencing loss. But, oof. I needed a post-cringe shower after that.


People living in the US but using an Apple account set to another country. Because you can only switch it once a year or something inconvenient like that. Whatever the circumstances may be, there is seemingly no good reason to restrict the app to US accounts only.


Because ICE targets people not from the US?
As if she went into this blind. Conservatives know what kind of people conservatives are; they just try to tell us it is something else that is not deranged.
