Mail carries have betting pools on the weird shit that goes down on their routes. Weirdest thing of the week takes the pot.

They know what that "discrete packaging" is actually hiding.

Elon Musk offered to give the USPS cybertrucks to replace their jeeps.

The USPS said "No thanks, our carriers don't need to overcompensate for anything"

Wife informs me that $tarbuck$’ new “Oleato” marketing push reminds her of a decade or so back’s “Olestra” campaign from potato chip companies and the like (as a “healthy” fat substitute that severely churned some people’s stomachs & got pretty abruptly taken off the market, or at least rebranded into obscurity).

I can’t say I disagree, as “Oleato” sounds to me like adding oleomargarine to coffee. Something to try once or twice with crappy coffee & olive oil you may have lying around the house to see if it improves it, not to go a multinational “niche” industry standard-setting coffee chain for, to pay a premium for the “privilege.”

Fortunately; the second amendment gives the owner the god given right to arm it as soon as he can find a suitable warhead. Had he already tried Harbor Freight?

My wife is spending this rainy afternoon making a slightly spicy meatloaf, and Spotify just offered it 250 million dollars.

I have linked a new post describing a new effort from the Associated Press that explores Conspiracy Theories. The effort includes comments from experts explaining why people are willing to believe conspiracy theories and a history of the appearance of such claims. The account is politically neutral and would seem a great resource for educators - https://www.learningaloud.com/blurts/2024/02/04/conspiracy-theories/

Looking for plumbing information regarding a few specific fixtures. Google is totally overrun with LLM generated spew.

Where we used to have message forums with real people, we now have linkbait with worthless "AI" generated generic text.

Now that even Trump wants Ronna McDaniel gone, I think this is a great time to charge her with Seditious Conspiracy.

I just want to complain about something because I’ve run across it several times recently and it’s irritating. This is not constructive; I’m just whining and being critical.

And this is it: Why don’t lyric sites have correct song lyrics? It seems like they nearly always have at least one line wrong, sometimes crucial lines. Is it really that hard? Guys, you had one job!!

There. I feel a little better. 😅
