Great, underused pickling vegetable. I think they make a nice addition to a Bloody Mary.

Death Stranding 2 and Alien?
Not actually all that bizarre, I think


Had no idea there was a Tom Jones cover of Burning Down the House.
In return, here’s a David Byrne cover of Crystal Water’s Gypsy Woman.
Neither really capture the original, but they’re interesting.


When I struggled to get up in my late teens and early twenties, I used a submarine dive horn as an alarm. That worked well, but my roommates were not a fan.

Edit: This is a fun post and I kinda ignored the game, my bad!
I use Fleet Foxes’ Sun Giant as an alarm, the deep inhale in the beginning gets me up instantly then the soft music is comforting as I stir awake. But might not be as useful for a teen who can’t wake up.
Streetlight Manifesto’s Everything Went Numb starts with horns and quickly gets upbeat and fast, great track that seems hard to sleep through.
Moxy Fruvus’ King of Spain has a good mix of upbeat, percussive vocals and a slightly embarassing Weird Al/comedy acapella vibes that might make it insufferable to sleep through.
I could easily see Blue Swede’s Hooked on a Feeling becoming a dreaded familiar wake up call. Ooga Chaka Ooga Ooga Ooga Chaka Ooga Ooga Ooga Chaka…
Maybe set up a subwoofer under their bed and hit em with something like Aquagen’s Ihr Seid so Leise.


I also use a safety razor, a Merkur 34C with the same Feather blades. They’re the best blades around and thank you for posting and reminding me to order a new pack of em

I tried using it as OCR software to help me simplify splitting up a grocery receipt between me and my roommates.
It messed up some item names, fine, it got all the numbers right, but it wouldn’t sum correctly in excel. I was totally baffled until I realized it used a non-unicode dollar sign symbol for some of the prices which caused excel to be unable to recognize those prices.
It took me longer to diagnose the issue and resolve it than it would have taken me to do the damn thing with a pencil and calculator.
Fuck AI.
Caveat edit: it does seem to work fine for instant and casual translation software. I wouldn’t rely on it for anything that matters, but speaking casually between people with language barriers, works well enough. And that’s p cool ngl

Pretty sure the Klingons fill the role of the Clans fairly well.
