you are fine just as you are 🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Uber is a fucking shell game of a company designed to leech investor capital and output bootleg cabs.

Nvidia posted a profit in 2023 of $4.37 billion. This is like someone stealing less than a penny from me.

And they lock this kid in a prison hospital for LIFE?

It was the only plan Bowser had to get Luigi to stick around.

Wehehe idk how many comics I’ll make for these two, but I’m having some silly fun right now.

This was prompted by me and my boyfriend discussing handedness and being able to tell apart left and right. And me, being ambidextrous, was baffled by how do people with an obligate dominant hand mix up which side is the one with their Writing Hand and which one isn't?? And my boyfriend pointed out that I go "turn left - no I mean right" so much when giving directions that I have lost my navigator privileges.

I argued that mixing up the words isn't the same thing as mixing up the directions. Like if your mom accidentally called you the dog's name doesn't mean that she literally can't tell you apart from the dog. And he looked at me like this

Water is way more hydrating than soda, but soda is more hydrating than nothing. A balanced meal is way more nutritious than ice cream, but ice cream is more nutritious than nothing.

Something is better than nothing. Some hydration is better than no hydration. Some nutrients are better than no nutrients. Some produce is better than no produce.

Same goes for veggies! French fries are potatoes, boom, veggies!

Like much of the world, this week we are going to be experiencing an intense heat wave.

If you dont have access to strong enough AC, please find your local cooling centers! Many libraries double as cooling centers, but not all of them.

Here's a WWLP article that lists some cooling centers open during this particular heat wave, and heres 413Cares a website thats been collecting cooling and warming centers for years. Use another resource to make sure those locations are acting as cooling centers for this particular heat wave.

Museums also tend to have very, very good AC to keep their items safe, and all the five colleges' museums are free and open to the public.

Grocery stores are typically kept extra cold to make you hungry so you buy more.

For many of us, the water out of our tap comes out very cold. Hold your wrists veins-side-up under the water for a while to cool down your entire body.

Personal fans, ice water wraps around your neck, and sticking your feet in ice water can go a long way for beating the heat.

Swamp coolers/evaporative coolers work well in lower levels of humidity, but can be dangerous at higher levels of humidity. They raise the humidity in your own space, which makes your sweat significantly less effective. They are easy to DIY with a fan and materials you probably already have. Check your local humidity forecast daily before using them, and just use a fan when its too humid. I wouldnt use a swamp cooler in any of the orange temperatures on this chart, and I'd be really careful about using one in any of the yellow parts of the chart.
