Dunno about crocs, but baby gators are actually remarkably adorable. It was highly illegal, but we had one as a pet for a while when I was young. They love head scritches.

dealing with them when they grow up isn't something you want to worry about, though

also did i mention it's illegal?

That feeling when you try to turn off the water after a shower and the knobs attempt to electrocute you. This is what happens when no one tries to maintain the wiring in a house for decades :-\

Sound of your grandfather starting to aspirate on his deathbed is probably one of the worst sounds in the world.

Elon finally did some good. He's killing Twitter.

Just watch as the US government bails his ass out ...
The sauds are apparently one of the biggest debt holders involved in the purchase, so it might not be the US gov't that does it if government intervention gets involved :P

So current chatter I'm seeing is that something like 75% of the remaining workforce has walked off after an asinine ultimatum from Musk. Near as folks can puzzle out, there's somewhere around <1k employees left, from a workforce count of ~7.5k a month or two ago.

The world cup starts sunday. The last time it came around, it took that entire >7k roster to keep twitter running. There's fairly solid odds the website is going to be down for an extended period in the near future, heh.

"You alright there Ash? 2022? Being a 10 year old kid for 25 years? Winning the championship? Must have been a bad faint, lets get a snapple and watch some cartoons on the CRT TV"
"Who the hell calls it a CRT TV? Also who are you, and why are you in my house?" *murderous pikachu noises*

Yeah, best of luck vec, to you and whoever you're running with. Even if it doesn't work out, it's a hell of a thing to have the degree of cohesion needed to try.

Speaking of old boomers...

one of the fucked up medicare advantage plan commercials (the one with "martha", if you've been unfortunate enough to see it) has a variation where they replace the old woman they're using as a way to exploit folks with medicare with a literal puppet

like

there's no subtext, there

it's just text

Huh. Apparently their chief information security officer, chief privacy office, and chief compliance officer all resigned in the last day or two. Chatter's saying the software engineers are going to be personally responsible for keeping their work compliant with FTC regs and whatnot.

... if that sounds like the recipe for a dumpster fire to you, well. Yeah, probably.
