I don't envy the kids trying to find job shadow opportunities in the WFH era. Or maybe they don't even do that any more?

This is my favourite comical map ever, and that was a hard decision to make https://xkcd.com/1799/

@jezza Haha I was hoping someone would have your exact thought (just me trying to stir the pot by being vague).

The virginity of Blessed Virgin is (still) important because it shows how Jesus' conception was a miracle in a way society at the time could comprehend (and of course it still works now).

But aside from that, it seems like society (at least from my point of observation) seems to care too much. I get that many people would prefer to be someone who hasn't been with anyone else, and of course it makes sense if one has personal convictions about what's right/wrong that they might care about it for themselves, but both of those are very personal/private things. I don't know why people are talking about them out loud, in social settings, and the like. I don't care about the 40 year old virgin, I don't care about the virginity status of, well, everyone but Mary.

But then again maybe that's because I'm just an old married man.

@jezza @progo "No right answers" is the most right answer at this point. It's all so tiring!

@jezza @progo Honestly surprised that they let that happen!

I don't understand why anyone outside of hereditary monarchists care about virginity anymore

Piracy doesn't steal from artists or creators. It steals from ships on the high seas. Broadening the definition harms those who do real work.

@mike I don't use my phone much since I'm at the computer all day but I've been on the 13 mini since it came out and this is part of my reason for hanging onto it for dear life. (No case though—and in great shape!) Though my brother pointed out, at least you get more of the front of the phone being a screen (calculations ignoring corners and camera cutout).

Oh how I wanted them to release a smaller thicker phone as the cheap model. I had the SE prior to the 13 mini so cheap and small is evidently my preference.

Copyright is such a mess. I hope we all can agree with that.

@jezza Ha! Well played

Pi day is lame. When's PIE day?

Note: not pie day. PIE day.

@sabbatical A discussion about that, which did settle on the "it's more likely he ate the bugs", is precisely how I learned it

I guess I was too quick to type and should've added "necessarily"

@sabbatical @QOTO @freemo I have not seen this fwiw

TIL "eating locust" doesn't mean the bugs

@jezza Just reading through this is a blast from the past with all the names of defunct stores and such
