(I know, I know. I try to minimize my Amazon usage, but I occasionally succumb to the sin of convenience.)
I assume Amazon workers exchange stories of odd orders they've packed, like the one I just placed for set of kitchen knives and a pair of medical tourniquets.

As the web collapses and search engines become a meaningless mess of ads and AI generated results, it's time to get in on the ground floor of the next big rebound industry: door-to-door encyclopedia sales
I finished Diablo IV and came to understand that the real diablo is the literal tens of thousands of monsters we killed along the way.
What does the convenience store keep in this cage? Wrong answers only.

I didn't plan to get this many groceries. I lack willpower, and the shops would be closed for the holiday!
There comes a point where I'm just not sure I can strap it all, and that's when I know I'm finished.
The fireworks have begun and #Violet is not happy.
We're halfway through the year and, therefore, the alphabet!

So close! I'd brought Larry's corpse to the surgery for an emergency post-mortem, checked that at least one engine was working, set course for Earth, and was on my way back to the flaming hibernatorium when a breeder got me.
After turn 1 I am slimed, injured, and infected, but at least one of the engines is working.
Well, this has begun badly. #nemesis #BoardGames

80 years ago today, Willem Arondeus was executed by Nazis after he bravely bombed a building to destroy 800,000 identity cards.
He was an openly-gay Dutch artist who forged documents for Jewish people.
His last words were "Tell people that homosexuals are not cowards."
TIL C# has two different types uint and unint. They MIGHT be the same size, depending on the system.

Medical illustration of pregnancy and foetus by Chidiebere Ibe, 2020. Ibe is a Nigerian medical illustrator and student who noticed that less than 5% of illustrations in textbooks depict Black skin, and is working to change that.
Ibe has also illustrated skin conditions such as eczema, which look different on dark skin but are seldom included in textbooks.

Me: I never owned a Nintendo system before the Wii, so I'm not really familiar with the Zelda or Mario franchises. I mean, except for the original Donkey Kong.
Student: Like on the 64?
Me: No! In an arcade! With quarters!
I haven't finished Diablo IV, but I have collected a complete set of druid fluid.
@DrSuzanne Well, I tried, but you have to CREATE AN ACCOUNT before they'll give you that kind of information.
... and then after you do, it doesn't look like there is one.
