  1. 😆 Ah, Figma—the once-glorified darling of #SaaS, now the punchline of tech's #tragicomedy. Enter Claude Design, the new kid adding insult to Figma's already embarrassing SaaSpocalypse meltdown. Remember when #Figma was the future? Yeah, neither do we. 🚀🛑

  2. 😅 Oh, the irony! While mourning the great John Bradley, we can't help but chuckle at the #tragicomedy of being blocked by #Cloudflare while trying to read about it. 🛑 #RIP, John—and our access to predictable web security malfunctions!

  3. The least likely option is the fantasy that #AndyBurnham will jump all the hurdles to become leader of the so-called "#LabourParty", and then magically rescue #UKLabour from #PASOKification.

    The party is over. Starmer's mendacity and corporatism has destroyed the weakened Labour coalition, and wrecked any remaining chance of recovery.

    But it has a few more years of #tragicomedy before the burial. #Popcorn!

  4. 🚨 Oh, the humanity! A valiant mission to hack a Casio watch turns into a tragicomic showdown with #ModSecurity, the ultimate gatekeeper of resources that don't exist. 🙅‍♂️🥴 Clearly, the only thing getting modified is your patience! ⏱️💀

  5. Ah, the #INTERNET 💀 is the villain in this #tragicomedy where obsolete PCs are the star-crossed lovers, doomed by their refusal to accept their mortality. 🎭 Watch as they gasp under the weight of modern web pages, while the narrator recites YouTube's terms of service like it's #Shakespeare. 📜

  6. The Valentine's Dinner Curse

    Once is a fluke. Twice is bad luck. Three times, though?

    We aren't big romantics (whatever that even means), but we do like going and getting some food so neither of us has to cook or clean up on Valentine's Day.

    Even before the pandemic started, we didn't really go out for dinner on Valentine's Day because, well, it's Valentine's Day. Places are busy and that's just not our vibe.

  7. #Trump under-cutting #Johnson is a return to the same "We can break it, but can't fix it" vibe we saw all too often in the last go-round.

    the addition of vapid prattling from trump's #workWife, #elon, is a #tragicomedy i was not expecting, but i've ordered the #popcorn.

  8. clown d'amsterdam - karel appel

    this person did a lot of funny, weird art with simple blocks of color. the horn points down, the face is sort of alien... seems like a clown for adults, not a birthday party clown. this clown has seen some sh-t and has its eye on you. this seems to come from a different kind of mind and I have gratitude that different minds are here with us, we are not alone. we need all of it, every weird different thing

  10. A #tragicomedy in two acts:

    1: Radio/Podcast news program #1A comes on, announces they are starting a new series on the #election called "If You Can Keep It" which is focused not on the horse-race and polls but on the stakes the election, the consequences for different groups in our country.

    2: First guest in "If You Can Keep It" immediately starts talking about Biden polling numbers among Black, Hispanic, and Latino groups in Texas, and "what it means for Democrats looking at the election."

  11. Can a movie be both funny and sad? Yes, it can | “What they do really well, in my opinion, is really get the tone of life,” Jefferson explains. “And that life is neither comedy nor tragedy. It’s sort of frequently both of those things at once." @ew ew.com/american-fiction-satire #movies #film #americanfiction #tragicomedy

  12. "There is an inevitability to the stumbling and flailing journey of hydrogen for transportation. Every effort follows the same steps, simply replacing the cast and setting as the play unfolds."

  13. "Gust Van den Berghe proves adept at detailed world creation with his irresistibly visually attractive The Magnet Man, which takes us into the world of the circus," eyeforfilm.co.uk/review/the-ma #film #Slapstick #tragicomedy #movies #POFF27

  14. My most important Snark finding (#ReligSnark):
    In his #illustration (snrk.de/snarkhunt/#561) to fit#8 of #LewisCarroll's #tragicomedy "#TheHuntingOfTheSnark" (1876), #HenryHoliday hid a pictorial reference to the print "Faiths Victorie in Romes Crueltie" (published by Thomas Jenner, c. 1630). The attached image shows
    (1) the print (containing a depiction of #ThomasCranmer's burning) with a comment from a curator of the #BritishMuseum and
    (2) my image comparison.

  15. #Introduction: The focus of @snark is on Henry Holiday's #illustrations (engraved by Joseph Swain) to Lewis Carroll's #tragicomedy "The Hunting of the Snark".

    As this is about Henry Holiday's Snark, I (#GötzKluge) am not the artist in this instance for creators, even though sometimes I draw something. (My neighbours said that I drew my #tröte better than I tooted it.)

    "Tröte" is German slang for #trumpet.
