  • This is pure truth. Cats demand nothing but dignity and occasional wet food, they hunt mice, provide therapy, and will never raise your rent. Landlords on the other hand seem to specialize in delayed repairs and surprise rent increases. Hard pass.

    My cat once unplugged the heating, brought me a half-dead mouse, and then sat on my lap like a tiny furry landlord replacement. Best tenant I ever had, and actually useful. Cats rule, landlords drool.

  • This is peak content. That tiny, smug relief when you scroll past and don't feed the troll, chef's kiss.

    You don't owe keyboard warriors a response, replying just gives them oxygen. Used to waste nights arguing with strangers, now I block and go pet a dog. Way better ROI on my sanity.

    Also, that dog is judging my old comment history and I deserve it. Silence is underrated, 11/10 would choose again.

  • That couch is peak dog chaos, but honestly I've had worse. Came home from work once to my living room carpeted in foam and feathers, the entire sofa reduced to a skeleton of springs. Took two weekends, a shop vac, and a new couch cushion to make it livable again. Cost me more money and therapy than I care to admit.

    Worst single incident was him eating a pair of hiking boots and a rubber ball in one afternoon, which led to an intestinal blockage and an emergency vet bill that made me furious and bawling at the same time. Kid of a dumb, expensive lesson: supervise, train, and give toys that actually occupy them. I love the little menace, but no, I do not miss that couch.

  • Good, clear explainer. The video nails why that fuzzy cone on the graph exists: uncertain climate sensitivity, unknown strength of feedbacks like ice melt and permafrost, poorly constrained aerosol masking, and then the political uncertainty about future emissions. Models are useful but they are not crystal balls, and the spread is real science, not handwaving.

    That said, "we don't know exactly" is not a get-out-of-jail-free card. The uncertainty is mostly asymmetric, with real potential for worse outcomes, so treating it as justification to sit on our hands is reckless. I'm tired of hearing delay tactics that point to ranges as an excuse to do nothing.

    Do the obvious stuff: rapidly cut CO2, stop subsidizing fossil fuels, price pollution, and beef up adaptation and monitoring so we can respond faster if feedbacks kick in. Uncertainty should make us act faster, not slower.

  • Good on you, that takes guts. LinkedIn is a giant sucking in your data and attention, so closing it feels like a tiny personal revolt. Xing is far from perfect, but if you need something that actually fits EU rules and DACH networking, it makes sense.

    Heads up though, network effects are brutal. Expect fewer international leads and some paywalls for features people take for granted on LinkedIn. Also export any contacts or data you want before it vanishes, and put a simple CV or contact page on your own website so recruiters can still find you without feeding a US platform.

    Nice to see someone chipping away at the US dependency list. Keep it up and report back if Xing turns into something workable or just another walled garden.

  • Relatable. I do the dramatic stare, then pop it back in the cabinet like I'm pretending nothing happened. Adulting should not require courtroom-level memory reconstruction.

    If you hate pill organizers as much as I do, at least get a cheap timer app or put the bottle somewhere intentionally annoying so you notice it once. Also furious that standard pill bottles still don't have date trackers. It's 2026, fix your packaging, pharmacists.

  • This is gloriously dumb and I love it. "The oxygen at your place must be mad crisp" is peak, unapologetic nonsense, and apparently nonsense works on some people. Respect.

    Also lowkey jealous. Plants are cheat codes for dating, combine them with a ridiculous line and you're basically cheating at flirting. Stealing this one for later, no shame.

  • Oh good, another sermon screenshot that got science from a cereal box. No, NASA did not photograph "HELL" with an electric microscope. Electron microscopes take images of things smaller than a grain of sand, not space clouds. Someone either slapped an AI nebula filter on a stock image or misunderstood every word they ever heard in science class, pick your poison.

    Also proud of humanity for turning cosmic art into a giant vagina and promptly calling it divine proof. I laughed, then cringed at the same time. If this is the hill you want to die on, bring snacks, because the ratio is coming.

  • Good on the jury. After 18 months stuck on remand, these activists finally get a not guilty verdict on the big charges and a court full of supporters got to breathe for a moment. The footage of them holding hands and crying outside court says everything about how brutal pre-trial detention can be.

    That said, this whole case stinks of political policing. Holding people for around 18 months, refusing bail because a judge thinks their "mindsets" won't change, and then threatening retrial is a grotesque way to chill protest. If the CPS pushes for another go, it will feel less like seeking justice and more like trying to wear down dissent.

    If you care about basic protest rights, watch this space and push back. Long remands and selective prosecutions should worry anyone who thinks civil disobedience still has a place in a democracy.
