“Ugh I hate clam chowder. Its just hot ocean milk with dead animal croutons.”

What is NDs?

Who can afford a backup egg?

Idk but if you find out, let me know. The book suggestion subreddut was the hardest one for me to walk away from, because I love recommending books, and I found much of my TBR from threads there.

Well

No need to censor, you can say A on lemmy.

Yes

Why are all the captions being posted as spoilers? I get an error any time I try to remove them.

And clam chowder is just a savory latte with bugs in it.

What kind of cake should I bake when it happens?

The district pointed to a state law enacted in 2022, which mandates that school sports teams must be designated “based on the biological sex of the students who participate” in the sport. A federal judge blocked enforcement of that law in 2023, but only against two trans student-athletes who filed suit against it. (An appeals court upheld that injunction last year, and the Supreme Court declined to take up the case this summer.)

Any chance this is some malicious compliance?

No, I keep a TBR and use a random number generator to select my next read. I have no problem DNRing because I have no problem finding new titles that look interesting and life is too short to read them all. Why should I waste my limited time on this earth reading something I’m not enjoying? Who does that benefit?

Feed by MT Anderson, published in 2002 had a good take on how they algorithms and advertisements would run our lives.

For Titus and his friends, it started out like any ordinary trip to the moon — a chance to party during spring break. But that was before the crazy hacker caused all their feeds to malfunction, sending them to the hospital to lie around with nothing inside their .heads for days. And it was before Titus met Violet, a beautiful, brainy girl who has decided to fight the feed and its ever-present ability to categorize human thoughts and desires. M.T. Anderson’s not-so-brave new world is a smart, savage satire that has captivated readers with its view of an imagined future that veers unnervingly close to the here and now.
