Greetings!

you know what scares me? what will you do once george floyd's name fades out of the news cycle? will you go back to your "normal" life or whatever normalcy you've created during this pandemic and forget? will you stop listening, learning, speaking up? will you forget about this and disappear only to come back again until another black person succumbs to state sponsored violence? you probably will. so please don't stop learning. please don't stop listening to and amplifying the voices of black people. please don't stop speaking up. dig deep and find the courage to keep this up. insist that you and everyone you know fight for a future where black people can live without fearing for their lives. a future where white supremacy is fundamentally annihilated.

When we choose to avoid history because it's Problematic or Says Bad Things, we are choosing to divorce ourselves from understanding how we came from that time to this one, which makes it even more likely for the cycle to repeat, with no one but a few people with shelves of old books aware that it's happened before.

do NOT google "omega heat"

prayers for the people googling "omega heat" for the first time

hbo max blocks screenshots even when I use the snipping tool AND firefox AND ublock which is a fucking first. i will never understand streaming services blocking the ability to take screenshots thats literally free advertising for your show right there. HOW THE HELL IS SOMEBODY GONNA PIRATE YOUR SHOW THROUGH SCREENSHOTS. JACKASS

somewhere out there is a guy who meticulously takes screenshots of every individual frame of his favorite tv shows and then painstakingly etches each one onto a roll of film which he puts into his old timey projector and recreates the footage as a silent film with his own lavishly hand-lettered dialogue cards and original score that he plays on his upright piano and charges audiences one shiny penny a play. at last, big media has finally outsmarted ol' Zachary Zoetrope

This also fixes screen sharing to other screens. It has been GODSEND

why is it so hot. why is it so hot. I am being punished.

i can’t stop thinking about the time my roommate and i asked our insanely ripped neighbor brian who wore flip flops year round and sunglasses on the back of his head for help with carrying a solid wood dresser up to our apartment. he wanted to get his son who was home from college to come help too so he takes out his phone and goes, “siri, call christian christianson” and turns speaker phone on while we stand there sort of stunned by the name and after a few rings cc answers, “what the hell do you want” and brian just hangs up without responding and is all, “kids, am i right” then carries the dresser up four flights of stairs pretty much by himself. we offered him a six pack of rainier as thanks which he immediately opened in our kitchen and downed 2/6 beers in 10 mins while telling us about his 1989 dodge ram 1500 he was trying to get his son to restore with him to no avail. really nice guy. we never saw his son before he went back to school but any time i ask my roommate for help with lifting stuff or reaching something he says, “siri, call christian christianson” and we reminisce about brian and his truck.

i love learning about animals ive literally never seen or heard of before. what amazing diversity of life on this planet earth. what the hell is a japanese serow

Greg: Right. Odysseus. Can you remember what the task was? Odysseus: 'Determine which suitors are good and which are bad. Your time starts now.' I disguised myself, I determined which were good and which were bad, and I think everyone here agrees that I deserve the five points. Greg: You're missing a line. Odysseus: … Odysseus: … Odysseus: (mumbling) 'Fewest good suitors killed wins.'
