Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Come undone is constipated. Damned repressive nature.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Every so often we see a video of a robot getting all uncanny-valley-ish by moving in ways we've never seen robots move before. This is one of those: Toyota’s running humanoid robot

My joy over the new sushi place having uni on the menu is somewhat countered by it not tasting as good as I recall and costing almost nine bucks for two pieces of nigiri. However, the rolls I got tonight were great (the place has really excelled in food quality for all my visits after the first), and I was seated in exceedingly cute young waiter's section again.
He thanked me for being so friendly... ah, kiddo, if you only knew how friendly I'd like to get with you...

That's not uncanny valley, that's adorable. So cute.

Skipping again on yet another person's computer (I'm spreading the b.org links on people's computers everywhere!) because, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is Deena's birthday.
Happy birthday, Deena! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!

There's a Talmudic quote that says "we don't see things the way they are, but the way we are". I already asked some people about it, including our wonderful Nilly, but nobody seems to know exactly where it's from. And I googled and I googled till I couldn't google anymore. Now, can any one of you give me the reference to this quote? Anyone with Jewish orthodox relatives, by any chance?
