Microblog Memes

Almost like most people are willing to watch things our partners want to show us because we care about them. Hm.

Yup, for me it's the crochet and flower arranging videos. Every once in a while I get a cat meme which is nice.

It’s a good video though.

Everyone loves Technology Connections. Also, watching Alec rant about Christmas lights every year is tradition now.

A female friend of mine says Technology Connections is "boy coded". Well, she is missing out

There is at least one follow up to that dishwasher one, or perhaps just a related one, about dishwasher detergent.

He got some pods chemically tested to vindicate his hatred of them. They scientifically do not work as well as the much cheaper loose powders. Specifically pods don't utilize the prewash, which is an important part of the machines ability to clean what's being run through.

I think he also created his own line of dishwasher detergent because of his lab results iirc

What's the word the youth uses? oh yeah,

Based

Fuck yeah, infodump harder!

When we met and first started dating, my wife and I bonded over our shared interests. And then shared some of our independent interests with each other. Not all of them were picked up by the other, but even for the interests we didn't pick up, we became generally aware of them, which helped fill in the picture of what the other person was about. And we built some shared interests over topics neither of us were interested in before meeting each other (a shared experience that starts an interest in both of us in some new thing).

I wouldn't always describe it as hot (my wife is into some stuff that I genuinely do not understand the appeal), and probably wouldn't even always describe it as interesting. But we care about each other, even the things we make fun of each other about.

That video was fire

You got my hopes up, but it's only 2:24 =/

Maybe it’s because you’re in their environment!

I get the unhinged TikTok demographic.

Super Eyepatch Wolf - You Cannot Play These Games

There's others, but that's the only one my brain managed to remember enough of currently!

This place attracts a lot of fundie social justice warriors, unfortunately. Or it's Russian trolls, same difference.

I'll receive similar messages but without the "we should do this". Later when I haven't responded I'll get the "Why don't you reply to what I sent you?"

We now have a rule that if you want a reply you have to ask a question. Felt kinda dickish but having that agreement up front has been helpful.
