the catholic idea of “pride” as a deadly sin or capital vice is funny because it takes a common sense notion (pride as arrogance, delusional self-aggrandizement, etc) and then extends the concept to the point of vacuity. what is pride? oh it’s just believing or wanting anything i think is wrong.

Sometimes, rarely, I will be brave and put myself out there. We will go to a museum together, have a nice afternoon. Maybe end up back at my place. But the better things go, the clearer it is to me that this cannot work out. It’s only a matter of time, you see.

“hey claude, here’s a csv with some old macro tracking data, can you incorporate it into this specific folder where i track this stuff?” claude: [sloppily misinterprets spreadsheet structure, concludes that the sheet contradicts existing data, decides to overwrite that data without asking] “Done!”

When you are old and grey and full of sleep, and nodding by the fire, take down this book, and slowly read, and dream of the soft look your eyes had once and of their shadows deep. How many loved your moments of glad grace, and loved your beauty with love false or true,

I am small little guy who doesn't understand big financial numbers, but Nvidia doing $150 billion in stock buybacks *now* looks like peak insanity to me.

the youtube algorithm just serves me clips from the same three tv shows over and over and over. it's obnoxious. if I wanted to rewatch better call saul, maybe I would just watch better call saul, not reconstruct it piecemeal from a ton of 3 minute clips.

two years ago i had this fantasy that i was going to develop a vibrant social life and go out a lot and so on. instead i have spent most of the past two years becoming progressively more isolated, stopped doing gay stuff completely, etc.

i’m with obama. solidarity is upstream of everything else the left wants. it’s the anchor for the material goods.

one of the good things about A Man for All Seasons is that it shows More dying at the end, and his side in the debate he sacrificed his life for losing. one of the good lessons a morality play can offer is that sometimes you give everything to do what you think is right, and still lose.

it’s really depressing that so much power is concentrated in the hands of such a small group of inhuman sociopaths who seemingly just want the rest of us to burn.

the “monkeys with machetes” company is really worried about the imminent threat of monkeys with machetes being loosed on the world. “we must pace the distribution of machetes to monkeys” they say, after several recent hacking incidents suggest that their monkeys may not be entirely safe.
