    got rejected by the "george r.r. martin summer writing workshop" at northwestern, which is sad, but the rejection notice came way past deadline, fully over a month later than they originally claimed, which is objectively very funny

    I thought the whole “cats can have a little salami” meme was a quote from the Irishman and I just sat thu 3 1/2 hours of a movie waiting for them to say “cats can have a little salami”

    a great socially distanced activity would be to get picked up by a forklift and gently lowered into a vast cranberry bog

    If you look at Acronym's "About" page today it says "we invested in Shadow" but if you look at the Wayback Machine from last month it's "we launched Shadow"

    As someone who has lived in both NYC (7 yrs in Brooklyn) and Chicago (cumulative total of 21 years, all south side) I am sorry to say that if you find Chicago “miserable” it’s a skill issue

    Hi, I’m a NYer who lived in Chicago for 2 yrs. It has its charms but I found it mostly miserable: the winters, the measurably worse violent crime, the exceptional scale of segregation, the vast transit gaps, the monotonous suburban sprawl into farmland. It’s cheaper for a reason.
