I know a flying cat when I see one

the color of when a soldier comes home from war and sees his dog for the first time.

Blink. Winks are asymmetrical.

If you leave a preacher hanging, you’re leaving god hanging.

My mom also used ours to hold dough during rising.

I had so many of those as a child. In hindsight, having a drawer full of (sometimes damp) animal shaped sponges was weird.

The link text goes in the square brackets, then the full url goes in the parenthesis. And if you put an exclamation point in front of the first bracket, it’ll display the image instead of link to it.

The Grimace birthday shake, the one at the McD that still has the Grimace jail, and Grimace.

That pure malice that emanates from JankyDick is not recommended for anyone over the age of 80.

Roman, probably. Maybe Kendall.

I’m not sure when I deleted my facebook account, but I moved into my current house 12 years ago and it was before that. Never had accounts on the other Meta services.

Modern generations will never know what’s been lost.

When I was a kid we had an electric piano with a degauss button. It was more fun than learning to play.

It’s an LG dryer.

I’d have to go look up the window unit. Its almost certainly a white labeled OEM who’s advertised brand no longer exists, though.

Neither mentioned a network connection was required. The AC unit didn’t mention it at all, and consumer reports mentioned the dryer had “smart features” and an app but never said basic controls were locked behind a network connection

How close are you to a starlink constellations orbital path, now that they can be connected to via cellular modems?

Pictures are far from the only thing to worry about.

I can’t set my dryer to medium heat unless I do so with an app over the internet even though the controls exist to do it on the unit. I bought a window AC unit and the only remote control is an app - thankfully I was able to put that on a subnet with no internet gateway and it still works.

Coming soon (if not already): TVs with utility cellular connections or corpo network (like Amazon sidewalk) access that your neighbor may have not opted out of.
