"Mad at the Internet" - a/k/a My Psychotherapy Sessions

The clue for 26-Across in today's NYT Crossword is "Exposes personal information about online, informally." I wonder what Josh's opinion would be on this.

Oh, JCS, I always forget that's what it stands for. Thank you very much. I'll take a look at 48h too.

EWU seems to be an extension of the former JCS crowd as I see it.

JCS videos were being taken down years after the fact merely because they used words for what the accused had done to the people such as rape, sodomy, so forth..

Anything left tangentially related to true crime that isn't willing to use euphemisms or dress up the story is on borrowed time hosted on YouTube.

"That Chapter" start off really slow and the host really found his niche around 2022, but it's definitely lost a lot of the dark humor that kept me watching it. Haven't checked it out for months.

Double X would mess up the placement of about 15 words there. My guess is the person making it found the word to be much more versatile for the completion of other words with 1 instead of 2.

@Null , Utah got even more based


If you're in government or in a school, DEI is out and you won't have to take one of those pledges. Love my state SO much like you wouldn't believe

How have the Mormons remained so isolated from all the bullshit that has infested so many other organizations and religions, as well the government at large. Say what you will about them, but they are some principled people that's for damn sure.

We have our ways, traditions, and are strict with our kids. It's not just religion, but culture as well. You can't have Utah without Mormons, it wouldn't be Utah.

The bridge is probably already thoroughly burned, but if @Null needed a potential in to the Australian court system he may be able to ask Karl Jobst. Karl has been getting sued by people for 3-4 years now, and has started knowing his way around the court system as a result. Most of his cases have been litigated outside of Australia, but he has most likely talked to an Australian lawyer during the Billy Mitchel saga. Since there is a shared history there, it might be worth trying to reach out and see if he can help with the Australian friend's case.

Anyone notice that Null sometimes uses British pronunciation and terminology?

Like a cars boot? Let's easily explained with his time in Australia, and the rest of Europe generally being more UK dominant for English speakers.

You'll find this a lot with European car manuals, too.

That said, it was kind of weird that he didn't understand that a boot was just the trunk. But I don't really expect him to be car-adjacent.

Albeit his taste in vehicles is quite respectable. I believe he wanted an 80s or 90s steel body truck if I remember correctly. As someone with an older truck (not to get too specific) they are some stout, reliable machines, especially old Dodges.

Another pro to classic trucks is that they're way easier to work on than newer shit. If you have the original manual and or a Chilton lying about you can learn the ins and outs in a single afternoon. Finding parts can be tricky though, unless you know where to look.

I couldn't give you time stamps but he's done it a few times. I think the last time was using the UK pronunciation of laboratory.
