@clive after they turned Jughead into a werewolf and Veronica into a vampire, anything is possible.

@clive I mean, let’s not forgot that Archie *died* back in 2014. Anything after that is certainly some special gravy.https://archiecomics.com/the-death-of-archie-is-available-now/

@phryk @selea I just did a speed run (well, as fast as I can go) of all 12 regular seasons. It’s an excellent show but loses footing after J-Roc and Lucy leave, imo.(What ever happened to Trevor, btw?)

Does the end of free access to Twitter’s API mean that accounts on other sites created by “Login with Twitter” will no longer work?#Twitter #API #OAuth

@dave Ugh.“Imagine being about to speak with your Roomba about things you wanted to do or not do the way you converse with ChatGPT.”I’m still seeing a solution in search of an actual (non-SEO) problem.

The Onion has been so damn impressive for so damn long.It’s not easy to do what they do that well for that long. Kudos."while he still did not approve of the satanic imagery embedded throughout the Harry Potter series, Rowling’s consistent dehumanization of people who are different from her had prompted him to reconsider.”https://www.theonion.com/evangelical-leaders-announce-j-k-rowling-finally-bigot-1850129128#TheOnion #HarryPotter #Trans #Evangelical #Satanism

@Teri_Kanefield @SueShannon FWIW, some of the third-party apps now support something *like* quote boosts. I specifically use Ice Cubes (unfortunately iOS only), which enables it.If I make a post with a link to another Mastodon post in it, Ice Cubes will display that post as a quote (instead of a useless link). I’ll post a screenshot:https://law-and-politics.online/@Teri_Kanefield/110000998971958559#QuoteBoost #IceCubes

@clive @heathr I was definitely an outlier. When I was working at @home/Excite (late ‘90s), we had a serious foosball crew. Sometimes we would play 3-4 hours a day.At Download.com, it was the ping-pong table. Each new CNET exec flipped back and forth between “get rid of the ping-pong table!” or “bring back the ping-pong table!”That ping-pong table led to my greatest corporate achievement — coming back from a big hole to win the CNET doubles ping-pong tourney.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sCHeFRS7Zs4

@CliffWade I’m not really loyal to products or brands except one:Original Silk non-dairy soy creamer. I almost (almost!) won’t drink coffee without it

@PurpleHazeII @cujobyte @StillIRise1963 Yusef Abdus Salaam — one of the Exonerated 5 — took out a full-page ad in the New York Times Tuesday. He posted it to Twitter. It’s worth a look:https://twitter.com/dr_yusefsalaam/status/1643404852410609665?s=20

@mathias @bgtlover @AskPippa @raccoon There’s no single reason Twitter failed, but to me, the biggest reason by far is the lack of moderation

@internetarchive “There’s no factual analysis. It’s just one inference one could make.”Remarkable. I’m guessing damages have nothing to do with it since it’s IP law but man, what a travesty

@futurebirdThat’s a very tough question, “the point” of having kidsSometimes with the best intentions and hard work at creating the parent-child relationship, you don’t get it. And it’s not always anyone’s fault. (See my parents for an example)You can always love and support kids, however, no matter the closeness of the relationship. And god bless my parentsParents nurture new humans, one way or another. I think that’s the only thing we all have in common

"Revlimid is now one of the bestselling pharmaceutical products of all time, with total sales of more than $100 billion. It has extended tens of thousands of lives — including my own."But Revlimid is also, I soon learned, extraordinarily expensive, costing nearly $1,000 for each daily pill.”…"The cost to manufacture each Revlimid pill, meanwhile, was 25 cents.”https://www.propublica.org/article/revlimid-price-cancer-celgene-drugs-fda-multiple-myeloma
