Using a pressure washer to remove the bark from the cedar log
Text thread with my son where the phone offered to translate "deadass" to English for me. I'm not sure why I put the arrows on it, it's pretty obvious.

A still from 1976's Silent Movie and I'm realizing now that I'm older than Mel Brooks is in this picture. Oh man. Also in the picture are Dom DeLuise and Marty Feldman. The only word spoken in the film is "No", ironically by famous mime Marcel Marceau.
A tweet from 2019 by Dennis DiClaudio who says: Remember there was that month in the '90s when everybody was really into Gregorian chants? And his reply: I love the idea of younger people reading this and not knowing whether I'm joking or not. I'm not.
Restomodding a 1970 Dodge Charger, the new Hellcat engine has been landed, as well as the brakes plumbed with a Wilwood master cylinder and calipers in front of a Hydratech Hydraboost brake assist setup. Next step is to install the Wizard (apt) Cooling radiator and get all the cooling routed.
Facebook comments on this post. First person asks why a religious descriptor is relevant, second person replies that if you read the talmud you "get a better idea why", saying "it plays a big role who are the ones sacrificing and raping children". I'm betting they don't mean that the Jews are the good guys here.
Duolingo lesson proclaiming "the sandwiches are all the same" which, I suppose they could be referring to a huge platter of the same turkey sub like for a business meeting, but I took it to very incorrectly refer to the cataloging of sandwiches by Tal Lavin.
My dog looking up at me expectantly for rubs as she rests her head on my stomach. We don't deserve dogs. Of course I comply, it's the best thing ever.

A Good Place reference with Chidi (me watching the halftime show) telling Michael (Kendrick) that he got all four clues only for Michael to reply that he left more than 1200. It's funny. Trust me.

MacBook pro from 2017 with the back removed, pry cards shoved under one of the battery packs for show, prior to removal of all the little bits (motherboard, all connectors) that need to be removed before the battery can be fully exhumed because this is one of the worst battery designs ever.
Turbo button on an old 486. It used to make things fast. In reality it was pushed in 100% of the time, so...

Removing the smashed digitizer, it has tons of little plastic picks stuck under it to try to keep the glue from re-sticking

Elon Musk tweet from April 27,2022 where he says "for Twitter to deserve public trust, it just be politically neutral, which effectively means upsetting the far right and the far left equally". Spoiler: the far right would not be upset.
