i’m sorry but it’s just so funny that that’s what the INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL COURT looks like

look i’m as much of a crank as anyone on the internet and generally go out of my way to find the more reliable, more repairable machine that’s not overloaded with quick to break gimmicky electronics. but when it comes to washing machines i absolutely can’t stand the freaks who defend top load agitator machines to their dying breath. once you look at how much more you spend in water and electricity annually there’s no way to justify the traditional top loaders, even if they’re repairable for 25+ years. the high efficiency machines pay for themselves in operating costs in like 5 years, even if the motherboard fries that early just get a new one

#i do think there’s a very obvious hole in the market though for a ‘dumb’ he machine that’s marketted as more reliable #but since that doesn’t exist….just get the $750 lg front loader

one of my favorite 30 rock bits is when jack starts dating the liberal congresswoman (edie falco) and during their whirlwind romance she misses a vote to legalize recreational whale torture, then at the end of the episode you see a clip of her on cnn with such a perfect public servant heavy sigh “and no, you still shouldn’t torture whales”

#the effort it must take to spend your whole career talking to the public like they’re toddlers #admirable !

why don’t more drugs come in nexplanon form. put minoxidil in one of those it’d be perfect. i’d be loaded up 2-3 per arm ideally

whenever i get previously used moving boxes it reminds me that everyone is terrible at everything

i volunteer with a group that harvests fruit from private trees to donate to community food projects, today’s project was a huge overloaded pluot tree, we met a lovely woman at the start who said she’s the homeowner but has been out of town for most of the last 2 years taking care of her aging mother so the tree’s been neglected. over time as we’re working it becomes clear that she owns this house but doesn’t live at it, she’s actually renting it to her 45 year old son and his family who she very pointedly says “aren’t outdoor people”

as we start, the leaders for the volunteer group ask her how much we should be picking because sometimes homeowners want to leave a section for themselves. she’s like no take it all, just leave a few of these really low ones in this small section for my grandson to pick. so we’re picking all over then someone notices a ribbon tied around eye level which usually means only pick fruit above this height. but the homeowner is insisting that no we can pick anything, the more the merrier. then she starts making some shady comments about her son but saying she can’t talk too loud because he might have his ring cameras on???? we were like wait what is the relationship here…

then the director of the org calls the harvest leader like “the homeowner wants to make sure that nothing below the ribbon is being picked”. i guess meaning that’s what the son told them to do? but we’re like 10 bushels of harvested fruit in already so we’re like, we’re gonna default to what the actual owner of the property who is here working with us wants. then she tells us her bum ass son has been home inside this whole time probably watching us but not coming out or saying anything to us directly!!!!!

weird ass shit honestly so funny to be an outside observer plus i came home with half a paper bag full of pluots i might try to pickle some

i love that women are getting better at suicide and men are getting better at body dysmorphia and eating disorders. if we keep fiddling with the dials we might get this just right one day

one of my favorite things to do is take off my shoes and all my clothes while using the toilet and leave them right there on the floor so it looks like i got raptured while taking a shit

awhile ago my boyfriend’s dad was visiting and my boyfriend ended up putting big bang theory on for awhile as a safe neutral tv choice, i had never really seen it and was fascinated by the way that despite having a sort of ensemble cast there literally were no b/c plots. every episode there was one thing happening that it followed for 22 minutes. idk if that’s true of the entire series or just the like 3 episodes i could stand to sit through but it was really amazing i’ve never seen a show that lazy structurally

someone said frasier does this and now i want to rewatch
