I met someone who bragged about not getting a flu shot in 70 years of life, and it’s okay bc they never got the flu. They did get pneumonia 3 times and the other person and I just looked at each other like…. Never caused by the flu

Good morning, I love it here in the east San Francisco Bay Area where you can wake up to all the car windows on your street being smashed in and people, including yourself, go “welcome to the Bay Area, why did you leave your window outside, what did you expect”

I made a cut paper book for my niece of the songs my sister made up/her favorite songs for her 1/4 birthday. Here are some of my favorite pages!
A cut-paper illustration of a rooster and a cockatoo in bright colors. Playful text reads “rooster ‘do, rooster ‘do, that little baby’s a cockatoo!”A cut paper illustration of a guitar with stylized text that reads “para bailar la bamba, se necesita una poca de gracia.”A cut paper illustration of a heart with text that reads “Emma love, Emma love”

The first time I had bibimbap was at an H mart in Houston and I didn’t know how to eat it and some uncle walking past sheepishly and wordlessly took the chopsticks from my hand and mixed it all up for me and smiled and bowed his head like “there you go, fixed it for you,” and he was right

i’m only just getting to to speed on the mathematics & OpenAI drama, but if they’re going to steal from your notes, scoop you, try to cut you out, and eschew any citational standards, you’d have to be stupid to use their tools for your research

Being accused of being a bot on TikTok for telling the girlies that they need to update their OS for security reasons. What incentive would a bot have vs a stranger in your phone who doesn’t want you to have your banking info stolen and your nudes ransomed

Yesterday was such a day of self-imposed horror. Opened the morning with a trip to our favorite three-ring circus (costco), got a giant filling replaced at the dentist, and then got the new covid and flu shots at the same time

Houston might be part of “Southeast Texas” but it’s not part of SETX, SETX is for the people who live east of Houston and say they’re from Houston
