Did a “save as” on a brief without realizing it, gave it a totally different name, then thought I lost hours worth of work for a tomorrow deadline. Maybe the terror was worth the ultimate relief?

The funniest thing about the Schmitt rake stomp is that if it'd been a Dem we'd have a week of think pieces about how Dems lack of hoops literacy was alienating them from real America.

Well, Apple and Google changed their maps, so I guess now we can expect them to rename entire corporate divisions.

you shouldn't take an iced coffee to a job interview because you shouldn't be trying to get a job. you should be digging an enormous pit or a complex system of tunnels

I really hate the framing of these stories as "an AI agent broke out and hacked something." No, an inadequate sandbox meant that a powerful and unpredictable computer program was set loose on the open internet by the company that designed it. The agency isn't with the "AI agent", it's with the firm

Ultimately, the worldview behind this is that the employer is doing the potential employee a *huge favor* by maybe profiting from the worker’s labor—again, if they’re lucky! It’s not even contemplated that the *employer* should be the thankful, deferential party in the exchange.

I’ve never seen Splash. But I’ve long assumed that what I feel I know about its storyline is totally wrong. There’s a dude banging a fish lady? They could barely get away with that in the Shape of Water more than 30 years later. One day I’ll learn what it’s actually about. One day.

I love Talarico and hope he wins. But he’s already raised $70M On the flipside, control of critical state legislatures will come down to seats where candidates raise 0.1% of that. I’ve researched the highest leverage swing district candidates you should donate to secure.actblue.com/donate/donat...

Donate to the candidates on the front lines of the fight against MAGA gerrymandering
These are anti-MAGA state candidates in *extremely* close races

Cis people do not understand how much trans people's rights have regressed in just 5 years. 5 years ago, there were none of these restrictions. 19 states banned legal recognition 21 states have bathroom bans 8 states ban gender marker changes on DLs 25 ban gender affirming care for trans youth

A pattern here is anti trans changes made under a labour government are assumed to be "reasonable and moderate" by people who would oppose them if a right wing government was doing them. This is worse for trans people because cis people just don't believe us when we talk about what is happening.

In my opinion Democrats get nothing nothing NOTHING by betraying trans people. They hurt themselves with a good deal of their committed voter base, and still don’t get the Republican votes they are so fucking obsessed with winning over. Lose-lose! People hate voting for squishy moral cowards!!
