Dude, I, I finally, I got the, uh, venue I wanted. Uh, I’m performing my dance quintet—you know, My Cycle—at Crane Jackson’s Fountain Street Theatre on Tuesday night, and, well, I’d love it if you came and gave me notes. Quoting @uncledoomer i went out to see my coworkers band once after being pestered for months and finally running out of excuses, and it was, no joke, this exactly. Related

7 Films I Love: 1. Perfect Days. Can you find enlightenment from cleaning toilets? After watching this Tokyo-based film, you might well think so. Perfect Days is beautifully shot and earned lead actor Kōji Yakusho (Shall We Dance) the Best Actor Award at the 76th Cannes Film Festival. 2. The Wild Robot. This is a family-friendly, “This is so cheesy! Why am I crying?!” type of feel-good watch. This film was adapted from the #1 New York Times bestselling illustrated middle-grade novel The Wild Robot by Peter Brown. 3. Argentina, 1985. I absolutely loved this film. It explains the brutal story—… Related

the most important skill is to be able to teach yourself something complicated from a youtube video. The other day, I met some parents, and they were super concerned about their 16-year-old daughter. The parents both went to very fancy colleges, and their daughter was not on the track to go to a very fancy college. They were lamenting that and were concerned about that. Then I happened to meet their daughter, and two things I noticed right away: (1) the daughter was a wonderful person, and she just seemed like a genuinely nice and caring young lady. The parents obviously did something right r… Related

PSA to new parents: Create an email address for your kid. Have it forward to both parents. Preschool, kindergarten, doctors, swimming, skating, dance, soccer... they'll all take *one* email address. You'll be forwarding emails back and forth for years if you get this wrong. Related

I've had to "unlock" my developer Apple ID once every 5 days on average for the past three months, and once per day for the past three days. Each time I do it, I have to perform a delicate dance to navigate what seems to be some kind of request throttling that gives me HTTP 503 responses during the unlock process, making it impossible to complete its several steps. Then my session times out and I have to start over. I've been trying to unlock my ID for about an hour so far this morning… Related

CaPiTaLisM bAyBeEeEeE 🫠 (Erin loves SiriusXM which is why I put up with this. It’s for her car.) I hate that not only do I have to do this dance annually, but that it had two [or more?] stages of offers to give me as I continued to say “no thanks” Sigh. Related

I was stupid enough to buy this new AppleCare One plan for a phone I bought my daughter. Now I learn this only covers the device if it’s connected to the same Apple ID (not family plan). Have to spend Christmas unwinding this and getting a refund, what a drag. Related

Their words
It's screamingly funny, devilishly inventive, and deeply, profoundly satisfying. With Fever Beach, Hiaasen makes a compelling case for Florida as the perfect microcosm of the terrifying state of America, and an even more compelling case for his position as its supreme storyteller.

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
