The image shows a hand holding a square-shaped plastic container filled with a red liquid. The container has a white lid and is transparent, allowing the liquid inside to be visible. The liquid appears to be a beverage, possibly a smoothie or a juice, with a gradient effect, transitioning from a lighter shade at the top to a darker shade at the bottom. The hand holding the container has a dark-colored nail polish on the thumb. The background suggests the container is being held in a car, as part of the car's interior is visible. The text overlay on the image reads, "Not using your straw cause you were a massive rebel who couldn't be tamed."

Buy better coffee and tea. (And socks and soap and household cleaning supplies.)

100% of profit goes to charity. We've donated over $10,000,000 so far and we're just getting started. Plus, I don't have to be a person anymore. http://good.store

This whole being-a-coffee-company-that-donates-its-profit-to-charity thing feels super weird now that Oscar winner Lily Gladstone follows me on threads, but one must commit to the bit regardless.

The image shows a hand holding a square-shaped plastic container filled with a red liquid. The container has a white lid and is being held in a car, as indicated by the visible car interior in the background. The liquid appears to be a beverage, possibly a smoothie or a drink with a thick consistency, as it is not flowing out of the container. The container is resting on a white plastic holder, which is likely designed to fit into a car cup holder. The hand holding the container has a dark-colored nail polish on the thumb. The text overlay on the image reads, "Not using your straw cause you were a massive rebel who couldn't be tamed."

After the U.S.-run Gaza Humanitarian Foundation accused Hamas of attacking two American employees at its distribution center, eyewitnesses and local journalists say the GHF fired grenades on the crowd first before aid-seekers threw them back at them.

that's right. I am glad I got rid of my kindle. Sure it might useful in that you don't need to have any physical books but if that means not really owning the books you bought then I'd rather have physical books.

The image is a meme consisting of three photographs arranged in a grid format. The top section of the image contains text that reads: "The little smile you give to old people when you walk past them to prove you're not a chav or anything." The first photograph on the left shows a young boy with a subtle smile, wearing a white shirt and a dark tie, suggesting a formal setting. The second photograph in the top right features a woman with blonde hair, wearing a black top, looking over her shoulder with a similar subtle smile. The third photograph on the right shows a man with short blonde hair, wearing a gray shirt, also with a subtle smile. The background in all three photographs is plain, focusing attention on the subjects' expressions.

The top section of the image contains text that reads: "The little smile you give to old people when you walk past them to prove you're not a chav or anything." The first photograph on the left shows a young boy with short brown hair, wearing a white shirt and a dark tie, giving a subtle smile. The second photograph in the top right shows a woman with blonde hair tied back, wearing a black top, looking over her shoulder with a similar subtle smile. The third photograph on the right shows a man with short blonde hair, wearing a gray shirt, also giving a subtle smile. The background of each photograph is plain, with the first and third images featuring a neutral-colored wall, and the second image showing a door and a wall. The overall theme of the meme is to humorously depict the awkward, self-conscious smile people might give to older individuals to avoid being perceived as "chav" or lower-class.

The image is a text-based scenario set in a cafe during a morning shift. It begins with a description of the scene: "I am working a morning shift at a cafe. We are serving breakfast. A little boy and his mother enter the cafe." The text then presents a dialogue: "Me: 'So, what will it be?'" followed by the child's response, "Child: 'I WISH TO DEVOUR THE UNBORN.'" This statement causes a sudden silence, and the mother looks embarrassed. The mother then says, "Mother: 'Eggs... he would like some eggs...'" The text is presented in a simple, black font on a white background, with the dialogue in a larger font size to emphasize the child's statement.

Perhaps it's just me, but I do find it amusing that the GNU Readline 8.3 announcement, in July 2025, gives two FTP URLs as the primary way to obtain the software. I don't remember when I last fired up an FTP client, and my web browser has long since forgotten how to do it too.

my web host won't let me ssh in unless I pay lots more money, which is how I re-learned that both sides have to agree on BINARY mode and all clients default to ASCII
in reply to Valerie Aurora 🇺🇦

Ah, '80s FTP.

I recall a text adventure puzzle where an in-game terminal with an ftp client let you teleport objects. If left in ASCII mode, a transporter-accident "worthless pile of protoplasm" resulted.

To this day I have not understood why the hell Firefox and other browsers had to drop FTP support.

The video features a small, cream-colored kitten lying on its back on a gray surface, appearing relaxed with its eyes closed. A person's hands enter the frame, holding a piece of seaweed. The hands carefully place the seaweed around the kitten's body, wrapping it snugly. The kitten remains still and undisturbed throughout the process. The hands then use two chopsticks to gently lift the seaweed, creating the illusion that the kitten is being served as sushi. The kitten continues to lie peacefully, seemingly unaware of the playful setup. The video concludes with the kitten still wrapped in the seaweed, with the chopsticks positioned above it, enhancing the whimsical sushi presentation.

Bloomberg: The Texas Floods Were Made Worse by Climate Denialism

Elected officials must be held accountable, now and in the future, for the lives lost in disasters brought on by increasingly extreme weather.

By Michael R. Bloomberg

"...The tragic news out of central Texas has been heartbreaking, but it’s also been maddening — because so many lives could have been saved if elected officials had done their jobs. They owe the families who lost loved ones — the death toll from the Fourth of July floods is now at more than 100 — more than thoughts and prayers. They owe them a sincere commitment to righting their deadly wrong, by tackling the problem they’ve turned their backs on for too long: climate change...."

The image features a woman holding a glass of beer against a blue background. She is wearing a black dress with thin straps and a bracelet on her wrist. The text on the image reads "Alcohol! Because Sometimes the Truth Needs a Laxative." The woman is depicted in a vintage style, with her hair styled in an updo and wearing dangling earrings. The glass of beer is held in her right hand, and the beer appears to be a light-colored lager with a frothy head. The overall tone of the image is humorous, with the text suggesting a playful connection between alcohol and the idea of revealing the truth.

The image features a woman dressed in a black dress with silver embellishments, holding a glass of beer. She is wearing a bracelet and earrings, and her hair is styled in a classic, vintage manner. The background is a solid blue color. The text on the image reads "Alcohol! Because Sometimes the Truth Needs a Laxative." The text is in white, with "Alcohol!" in a larger font size and bold style, while the rest of the text is in a smaller, regular font. The overall style of the image is reminiscent of vintage advertisements.

What is this new Bitchat scam that crypto-bros think is good?


My friend was telling me of this, thinking since its crypto related it must be really good. I said this has been around for many years and there are much better solutions than any that Jack is going to come up with to scam us. Have you guys heard of this?

The image is a meme with two parts. The top part contains text that reads, "Ordered this badge for my girlfriend, which was made from my proposal photo to her. Didn't quite go as expected..." The bottom part of the image is divided into two sections. On the left, there is a photograph of a man kneeling on one knee, proposing to a woman who is standing and holding a jacket. The man is wearing a gray shirt, and the woman is wearing a pink and white striped shirt and blue jeans. On the right, there is a badge with a silhouette of the same proposal scene. The badge shows a man kneeling and a woman standing, but the woman's silhouette is incomplete, with a noticeable gap where her head should be. The badge is gold-colored with a black background.

Below the text, there are two images side by side. The left image shows a man kneeling on one knee, holding a woman's hand, proposing to her. The woman is standing, wearing a pink and white striped shirt and blue jeans, holding a jacket. The background appears to be an outdoor setting with a building and some greenery. The right image shows a badge with a silhouette of the proposal scene. The badge has a gold-colored figure of the man and woman, with the man kneeling and the woman standing. The silhouette is somewhat abstract and lacks detail, which is the source of the humor in the meme.
