Democrats picked up 49 seats in the House and 5 in the Senate. This group greatly increased the strength of Northerners and liberals in the House Democratic Caucus. They joined more senior liberals to strike a blow against the seniority system and overthrow three committee chairmen whom they viewed as too conservative and/or too old to represent the caucus: William R. Poage (D-TX), Wright Patman (D-TX), and F. Edward Hébert (D-LA).

My sister was notorious for her egg corns when she was young. The two that come immediately to mind that she’ll never live down are:

• “Eye bulbs” for “eyeballs”
and
• “Thick-ass brick” for “thick as a brick”

Nah - by then it’ll be AI agents answering too…

Spending millions of tokens on text to voice to text for a meeting that could have been an email

If you mean like when you’re creating a list of items that already contain commas, such as New York, NY; Boston, MA; and Sacramento, CA, then that is also a valid use of semicolons.

My error was writing my sentence with a valid semicolon, then editing the sentence structure without replacing the semicolon with a comma before posting.

“Sonarr has escaped containment 😱!!!”

Why are you here?

I was also invited to participate in the IPO (in 2024) due to my “top tier” karma.

Didn’t get a ban for not participating but wouldn’t have given a shit if I did.

CEO Steve Huffman said, “These deals aren’t binary. They have to make sense for Reddit, but there are many ways, I think, for the value to return to Reddit.”

lol - “The value has left Reddit”

Who could imagine when you piss off:

1. third party devs who make the apps your best contributers use
2. your unpaid content creators
3. your unpaid moderators

…that the “value” would leave 🤣

That makes perfect sense in retrospect but my brain just couldn’t figure out the typo/false autocorrect 😂

Fingers crossed for a juicy discovery and not a settlement 🤞

Guess I’ve got to move to California now…

…and secret whiskey stashes…

One of the most sensible things I’ve seen from the administration.

Kinda surprised Trump was OK with it tbh…

What’s with the sketchy domain name? Doesn’t really instill trust enough for me to click on let alone listen to their opinion.

ETA: TIL about punycode. Thanks all 🙏

One version of the game is played when “one player hops onto another’s back” and the climber guesses “the number of certain objects out of sight”.

Another version of the game is played with “one group of players jumping onto the backs of a second group in order to build as large a pile as possible or to cause the supporting players to collapse.”
