  • Imagine unironically using the words “good thing” to describe a number of civilian casualties above 0, let alone above half of total casualties.

    That’s wild man.

    Civilian casualties of war aren’t just a statistic. Those are real people that just wanted to live happy lives. Less than 1% of any number over 100 is a number I’m not happy about, and anyone with a heart should be furious about the number of civilians dying in Gaza. Especially when those numbers are such a high percentage. If you can’t fight a war without that kind of casualty count, then you either don’t fight the war or you accept that what you are doing is a genocide, not a war. IDF has very clearly made their choice on this.



  • Oh man, I feel your pain… I was in general customer-facing support for three different enterprise security/identity service providers from 2014 until a year ago. That shit was torturous sometimes. Now with that third of those three I’m the dedicated guy for just two of our larger customers and it’s fuckin great compared to that. Always dealing with the same handful of very very competent people is so refreshing.


















  • I am a lazy launderer and my partner has loads of clothes of various fabrics.

    My trick that has never let me down:

    wash everything on cold

    When rotating to the dryer, indiscriminately pick out any tops that don’t feel like regular “t shirt” fabric, pick out all bottoms that aren’t obviously cotton, pick out all wool, pick out all dresses, button up shirts, skirts, or “full body” garments as regardless of what fabric they feel like they tend to be more sensitive to the heat.

    The rest can go in the dryer, but hang dry all the stuff you picked out.

    I might end up hang drying more than I need to, but it beats the hell out of checking the tag on every individual garment.
