Saw this old magazine page from the corner of my eye and thought it was a ReCaptcha.
The teens on the cover of this book from 1973 were dressed like teens from 2006.

I feel a tinge of disgust any time I see that stupid X social media icon on any company's website's footer.
I like in a Celsius country but have switched all my digital thermometers to F for exactly this reason. It's just more intuitive, and I happen to like it at 70F, so below that convenient number is cool, and above it is warm.
I had an idea for one, something like: "Vatican Conclave Elects to End Papcy, sell off all Vatican possessions to feed the needy, and entrust the direction of the church to God's hands."
Do we know for certain they actually wiped with the sponge? Because I can imagine the sponge merely being used to transfer water from the central container to the cupped hand which is then used to clean their anus like in many cultures today. A sponge-on-a-stick having better reach from the seated position than a small jug, and no risk of breaking upon dropping nor theft. I feel like the disgust at the idea of smearing feces between strangers would be just as strong 2000 years ago as it is today.
Fursonas are pure narcissism. Imagine if non-furries acted like furries: you open someone's social media and if every pic they upload is commissioned artwork of their (human) selves. You walk into their home and the walls are covered in self-portrait paintings. You chat with them and they reply with 'stickers' of pictures of themselves doing gestures or facial expressions. Pure narcissism.
Social media sites should have 'reverse' Parental Controls; where adult children can block their boomer/senior parents' accounts from viewing conspiracy and radicalizing content.
Still better than comments that go "Fast shipping. Good packaging. Didn't test yet. Five stars."
Meat flavored with a hint of fruit sounds alright. But fruit flavored with a hint of meat sounds gross.
I think that's Jerzy Urban? Polish left-wing commentator and journalist.
I wash dishes while waiting for the water to boil, or sandwich to cook in the panini press, or food to microwave, etc. Better than just standing there.
You didn't even break that rule, because an abbreviation is when you shortened a word to its first few letters, like 'Inc.' for 'Incorporated'.
NYT is an initialism. NASA is an acronym. Neither are abbreviations.
