Every so often I change my profile picture on social media to the profile picture of someone I'm arguing with.

Somewhat related, if for the other side of the country....

We went on a US trip in between Trump presidencies, and my wife and I's first reaction to getting out of the taxi in NYC was: Why does it smell like piss?

In the 6 block walk to the hotel our question was answered multiple times by people pissing in the street, the gutter, and the alleyways.

tl;dr - NYC smells like piss because of all the piss

Irfanview https://www.irfanview.com/

It's literally one of the only reasons I'm still using Windows.

No other image viewer is as fast and as useful.

Outlook. In HTML format. With a giant signature that includes an embedded image.

Also the image is a 2400px image that has been resized using width and height attributes.

The head of my knob is way too soft and pretty to ever want it's little party hat to be taken off.

It's so soft and sensitive down there, I don't want it chafing on my grunderpants all day and ruining it's good feels.

I don't know either of those people. I feel this is actually a good thing.

Signed up for Lemmy, participated in things I was interested in.

If you're that addicted to Reddit just stay there. I hate this "please beg me to stay" crap that goes on pretty frequently.

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doop_(song)

"Doop" is a song by Dutch Eurodance group Doop. It was released on 28 February 1994 as the first single from their debut album, Circus Doop (1994). The song consists of a Charleston-based big band number set against a house backing track. "Doop" achieved success in several countries, including the United Kingdom, where it spent three weeks atop the UK Singles Chart. Two main versions (each with its own corresponding radio edit) were issued under the names of two different big bands, with the "Urge 2 Merge radio mix" combining sections of both. In 2005, the song was covered by Looney Tunez vs. Doop.

 

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swamp_Thing_(song)

"Swamp Thing" is a song by British electronic music group the Grid, released on 23 May 1994 as a single and is included on the Grid's third album, Evolver (1994). It peaked at number three on the UK, Australian, and Danish singles charts and reached the top five in an additional seven countries, including Finland and Norway, where it reached number two. The song was later sampled in "Banjo Thing" by Infernal and "Swamp Thing" by Pegboard Nerds. NME magazine ranked it number 41 in their list of the 50 best songs of 1994.

"Swamp Thing" is almost completely instrumental, consisting mainly of: drums, synthesizer sounds and banjo. The only vocals are Well alright, watch out, Feel alright and I just dig it, sampled from the 1973 reggae song "Papa Do It Sweet" by Lloyd & Patsy. The banjo part was written and performed by Roger Dinsdale – a folk musician who also played the guitar and the mandolin. Dinsdale died in July 2009.

 

This is a cover, bit I prefer it to the original artist. Knowing the backstory makes the song physically hurt I reckon.

From Wiki:

"Scorn Not His Simplicity" is a song written by the Irish musician and songwriter Phil Coulter

Phil Coulter's first son was born with Down syndrome, and several months later the father wrote the song "Scorn Not His Simplicity" about his experiences with his son's disorder.
