  • The place I’m renting doesn’t have a dishwasher (annoyingly common around this area) so I got an over-the-sink dish rack and established the habitat of washing dishes in the morning while I’m waiting for coffee to brew. The over-the-sink rack holds more dishes than an ordinary rack so I can go longer without emptying it. It drips into the sink so there’s no drip tray accumulating mildew (taking apart a regular dish rack to clean the drop tray never happens). I also make sure to organize my cabinets so that dishes all live in the cabinets which are closest to the sink to make putting away dishes easier for me.



  • Your choice was Jill Stein who shows up every four years to siphon money and attention from effective leftist movements and doing shit all in between. Not organizing, not trying to get green candidates elected to Congress or even state assemblies, not collecting signatures for citizens ballot initiatives to end fptp, nothing. All she does is collect donations for recounts in blue states that never happen and have dinner with Putin.

    You voted for a grifter who promised you what you wanted while robbing you of your ability to ever have it.


  • Looks like they might be coprinellus disseminatus or “fairy ink caps” but I’m not an expert and it’s hard to be sure without knowing more information like where you found them (region/what they were growing on) and what the gills look like.

    Inky caps are generally considered “conditionally edible” because they contain a chemical which reacts with alcohol and becomes poisonous. It’s recommended to abstain from drinking for three days before and after eating them. Fairy ink caps are crumbly and generally not considered worth eating even by those who enjoy inky caps.





  • Where’s Ed been? Corporate philosophies are a dime a dozen in tech and they’re always just vague enough to use as a justification for management to do whatever they were already planning on doing.

    Microsoft’s growth mindset is no more problematic than Amazon’s leadership principles or any of the other corporate pillars we inevitably need to phrase our accomplishments around in order to get hired/promoted. They’re all the same pseudoscientific MBA BS that’s been permeating the industry for years.

    This article could have been written about just about any large tech company with the same concerns and conclusions.
