I’m laughing at the possibility that all your siblings are actually kinky as hell but each of you keeps it carefully to yourselves so you all believe you’re the only one who isn’t super vanilla.

Throughout all of history people use story and song to transport the mind to other places, to make real what isn’t.

Entertainment needs escapism like bread needs butter.

Can we just fucking STOP doing SUVs please? And huge trucks. And all the rest of that oversized garbage.

“Good Evening” however CAN be a phrase of welcoming.

“slowdown” means “prevent competition and maintain the status-quo”

How’d she get pregnant doing anal 🤔

We’ve stolen lots of recipes. Modern British cuisine is basically a massive rip-off of every other country’s cooking smashed together.

Fusion, if we’re being polite about it.

You’ll never guess what it sells

I don’t have a musical instrument, but if I did you bet your ass I’d be keeping it in my sight rather than let the cargo handlers beat the absolute shit out of it.

If overhead bins are for anything, they should be for important things like that.

The reason overhead space is so crowded in the first place is because airlines have created a perverse pricing structure which charges extortionately for checked luggage and encourages everyone to take the biggest carry-ons they can.

I have at times in my life acted in horrible ways and done things which upset others, or were just horribly dickish things to do.

But when I lie in bed at night my thoughts are sometimes about how I regret those things, and don’t want to be like that to anyone again.

I hope that counts for something.

Hey! You said it wasn’t tested on animals

When you deliver a talk in real life, you don’t just stand there like a statue as you click through the slides.

Good presenters know it engages the audience a lot more if you move around the room, motion at the slides, use hand gestures to emphasise your point. People fundamentally respond better to that, and that’s just human nature.

Stick figure animation is the equivalent for YouTube presenters who don’t want to show their face.

You might find it patronising, but it works.

But they were all of them deceived, for another Allen key was made

This is also really good if you want to sell or give away your stuff, so the next person has the tool they need to put it together.

You’re lucky that cat can’t read!

Expressing only absolute opinions.

The world is rarely black or white, but some people act as if it is, and take any suggestion of a possible intermediate ‘gray’ as confirmation you must be on the ‘opposing side’.

You can’t have sensible discussion with someone who already decided they are right.

• Make it cheaper
• Make it better
• Use your network admin powers to force adoption by blocking everything else. /s

Reality is that it’s hard to compete against big tech on convenience, features, and ease.

The only sure way to have people use self-hosted services is to make it cheaper (which is irrelevant if they don’t personally pay the bill) or for those people to believe in it ideologically, in the same way you presumably do. To value data ownership, and privacy.

Selfhosting is a journey that doesn’t happen overnight. Most people don’t care and don’t want to care. But for true adoption, you have to care about it for reasons which are beyond the purely practical.

“This party dress is a bit dated, guess I’ll do the gardening in it”

Yeah nah

If you want to refer specifically to web scraping then call it “web scraping” or “site scraping” or “HTML scraping”

Not difficult to get your meaning across.
