Will Ferrell is obviously not a regular Joe but I really think his doc is the trajectory for the average American on trans people: you’ve got a friend who explained their personal deal to you and because you’re friends you cared

PayPal is updating their ToS to let themselves give your data to merchants starting in November and they're certainly banking on people not knowing to opt out, SO to opt out before they start: go to Settings > Data & Privacy > Manage shared info > Personalized shopping, and toggle that shit off

The theater got bought by a statewide chain last year and does $6 tickets on Tuesday. It’s been a good way to see movies after work.

I was working at a newspaper and I got a random Wednesday off. It was 2013. Pacific Rim had just come out. There was a 4:30 p.m. showing at the local theater. No one else was there. Just me. Alone. Glorious.

this thread tho

i don't understand this economy when nursing homes are so expensive they bankrupt our grandparents but nursing home aides need to use food banks.

daycare is so expensive it eats up one parent's entire paycheck and yet daycare providers only make $10/hr and need second jobs.

All the Hidden Paths by Foz Meadows is a wonderful book and I absolutely loved it. Same applies to The Woods All Black by Lee Mandelo.
