watched the new Carrie. Not sure if turning this into a series is gonna work in a way that's unique but King has seemed to always be keen on seeing his works continue. If you loved the book or the original movie, you're probably gonna hate the end of this season.

When I was in 4th grade i read Animal Farm. I told some kids I coached this and one said it was a weird flex. I think about that sometimes. Like now when booktok talks about struggling with DCC and I finished all 8 books in a month. People train their kids from a young age to be pro athletes.

A guy in my orbit died today that was beloved by many of my friends but was a real shithead to me. He just enjoyed being an asshole and that was something I never cared for. So these mutual friends of ours are distraught and all I got is I'm sorry for their loss. Not going to any services tho!

Watching How to Make a Killing and Maragret Qualley just said, "He had a swimming scholarship to Princeton and he drowned." You'd think a movie about elite wealth would have known Ivys don't offer athletic scholarships. Bleh

a quarter of republican men are so committed to the bit that they won’t say they could kick the ass of an octogenarian whose only regular exercise is running scared
yougov poll: Democratic women are more likely than Republican men to say they could win a fight with Donald Trump

Who do you think would win in a physical fight between you and Donald Trump? (%)

poll shows 25% of republican men think trump would win, while only 7% of dem women say the same

I launched an indie webcomic hosting platform several months ago that offered a free and a $4/mo paid plan. This was purely to cover the cost of the infrastructure. But in seeing it grow, I'm no longer worried about the cost. So yeah Webcomic Studio is now free. webcomic.studio

Last weekend I took the girls to Teso and the youngest got a grape ice cream. I was telling the girls how Ben and Jerry's didn't make grape ice cream because grapes are harmful to dogs. And the oldest asked so why do they make chocolate? I've been thinking about that for days.

As a person that likes making art, i've struggled with inspiration, time, and effort. I recently made myself finish a piece that I made to demonstrate using multiple mediums to my art classes and it was extremely satisfying. I love Hollow Knight and Silksong! I look forward to finishing more art lol

i'm starting to think I missed a shiiiiit ton of music when my kids were babies. I was listening to a lot of nursery rhymes, I didn't know Karmin or Copacabana was a thing 10 years ago. No regrets! Just deeply confused because I thought i was a music buff.

Y'all, I love sci-fi of all varieties but something about this Hail Mary movie just looks dumb as heck to me and i'm not sure what. I think Gosling is great, I loved The Martian. But when they had that alien at the end of the first trailer, it just screamed low budget cutesy bullshit to me.

AND ANOTHER THING. Star Trek can be a lot of stuff for a lot of people. How there are still people complaining that it's not all TOS all the fucking time is mind-boggling. That was 60 years ago! How are they living in a vacuum? SFA is a great show that wildly managed not to have a crap 1st season.

Token Anxiety
Nikunj Kothari C @nikunj • Feb 13
A friend left a party at 9:30 on a Saturday. Not tired. Not sick. He wanted to get back to his agents.
Nobody questions it anymore. Half the room is thinking the same thing. The other half are probably checking the progress of their agents. At a party.
All the parties are sober now. Young people don't drink because they're going back to work after. Not inspired by Bryan Johnson, although that's probably a factor. The buzz they want now runs on tokens per day.I keep noticing it on walks through the Mission. Laptops glowing everywhere. Cafes, sidewalks, heck even park benches. People walking with screens open like a flashlight guiding them somewhere. Less drunk laughter on the streets these days. More keystrokes.
Dinner conversations used to start with "what are you building?" That's over. Now it's "how many agents do you have running?" People drop the number the way they used to drop their follower count. Quietly competitive. The flex isn't what you've accomplished anymore. It's what's working while you're sitting here not working.
The vocabulary is what really gets me though.
People describe models the way sommeliers describe wine. This one has better taste. That one hallucinates with more confidence. Opus is bold, Codex is smooth. They talk about harnesses and reins like they're controlling
horses. Invisible whips directing invisible labor. Someone at a dinner said they keeplabor. Someone at a dinner said they keep
"Claude on a tight leash for code review but give it more slack for creative work." We've started borrowing the language of how we treat animals for something none of us actually understand yet.
Waking up and checking what your agents produced overnight is the first thing now.
Before coffee. Before texts. You open your laptop and grade homework you assigned in your sleep. Some of it is good. Most needs rework. But you start shipping a plan before you sleep just so you can wake up to more code written overnight. Saturdays became uninterrupted build windows. No meetings, no Slack, twelve hours of you and your agents. Sunday morning X is all terminal screenshots and shipping receipts. "What'd you ship this weekend?" replaced "what'd you do this weekend?"The anxiety is rational, which is why it sticks.
Every week some new benchmark drops that makes last month's workflow feel prehistoric.
Codex ships overnight processing. Opus gets faster. Context windows double. None of it reduces the pressure. It multiplies it. You can do more now. And someone already is. The window to be first at anything feels like it's shrinking by the day. Literally, by the day.
I replaced Netflix with Claude Code. I lie in bed thinking about what I can spin up before I fall asleep, what can run while I'm
unconscious. Reading a novel feels indulgent now. Watching a movie without a laptop open feels wasteful. This voice in my head that says
"something could be running right now" just doesn't shut off. I'm not even building a company. I'm just addicted to building my random ideas.
Everyone here knows they should step away more. That's not the problem. The problem is what your brain does when you try. I still take a x ss walks. The agents come with me now.

I think there’s a difference worth pointing out between a person you know changing their mind (welcome) & a pundit feeling the wind shift on their spit-slicked finger as they declare it’s now correct to call something fascist (fuck off into the sun). One of them will never fight alongside you.
