Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

It seems like there should be at least one involuntary manslaughter charge, but my law degree is from Law and Order.

As a graduate of the same fine institution I'm pretty sure they should threaten all of them with it and see who flips on the rest first.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Unless they assume they can hold out for a presidential pardon ....

Chris, I was able to use my card at my corner store, so I agree. It is something with Instacart. Unfortunately, I mostly need Instacart!

Wow Jesse. That’s way more with it than I am. Yesterday I had soylent for lunch, with some pirate booty. And then for dinner reheated French fries and Brussels sprouts from my takeout the night before. And then a bowl of cereal for dessert. ...this is why having children always seemed scary to me. I can’t feed myself, how could I feed a child healthily?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, that's terrible. Instacart is pretty important for a lot of people! And I can't imagine they accept cash.

I mean, that seems like a pretty healthy day for an adult or a child, so I think you're OK!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I am heavily reliant on DoorDash to feed myself this week. I do not expect to prosper with the fall of civilization. Or with any glitches with epayments.

Is it wrong that I hope Adam Schiff has a degree from Law & Order as well? He has to have checked it out, right? I guess it wouldn't really make a difference for general population of insurrectionists, but still. I'm reading his statement thing right now, good stuff.

I will never get over there being a real elected official named Adam Schiff.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Work cackling: you know what happens when I wake up too early and a poorly-scheduled/thought out documentation request is casually sent to me in Slack? I get spiteful, write up an entire "this is how documentation will be planned and requested for 2021" document and give the release manager a heads-up, which leads to them gleefully adding me to the weekly PM meeting.

The moral: do not piss off a technical writer who has run content planning PM thunderdomes before, it will go poorly for you.
