@katelynburns.com - just here to say you’re doing our last name proud! “Sick Burns”?!? That’s gold. I applaud you. I now feel like I’m wasting mine away.

Everyone should have the chance to sit in first class on a plane once in their lives so they can experience the looks of absolute disgust that people give you as they walk by. The others have clearly deemed me unworthy of these seats. Don’t know how people do this regularly?! It’s uncomfortable!

I’m reading The Nightingale and I wonder if when @kristin-hannah.bsky.social wrote she imagined people seeing such parallels in modern life. If you aren’t terrified, you aren’t paying attention.

I love how I don’t eat breakfast unless it’s free and then I eat allllll the breakfast. Never met a breakfast buffet I didn’t devour.

@seejanemarie.bsky.social - I’ve been bingeing recent Dream episodes and literally every episode spurs at least one long and intense conservation with someone. So good. 10/10. No notes. (Also love magic, fyi)

I keep getting served up these “airlines hate ChatGPT because I got this $2k flight for $200” and then they explain that they took 8 connections on weird budget airlines and left 3 weeks later than planned and vacationed for one night before heading home. Pass.

@realgdt.bsky.social - my seven year old is a quirky bird in the most beautiful and wonderful way. He is obsessed with “bad guys” and monsters and he’s always creating. When you are next in Toronto, if we can buy you coffee, I want him to see that the world in his head can lead him to great things!

@donhopkins.bsky.social - on a desperate search to introduce my son to Sim City 1989-1991 edition and casting a WIDE net on how to do that. Not just willing to pay, but WANT to pay. The memories I have of that game are worth their weight in gold.

I alternate between finding this all funny, and then being terrified at what it could become. I don’t want to be the 51st state. I don’t want war. I don’t want to be in opposition. And I have read enough history to know those things aren’t impossible.

What’s the difference between a gov controlling an algorithm, silently eliminating reach for things it doesn’t like, vs the same gov using its power, to demand that the platform remove the things it doesn’t like.? In China they are overt. With TikTok in the US, they control silently

Someone with more time than me needs to create a forum where you can ask a group of librarians if a book exists - but not publicly in case your goal is to then write said book. #librarians #books #writing (do we hashtag here?)

Social media algorithms are hilarious because they give you a click-bait posts where you click to find out what it’s about, then whatever it was about, they serve you a MILLION TRILLION more of those posts, even though you only clicked on it in the first place because you didn’t KNOW what it was.

I’m looking for good book recommendations that don’t have “heartbreaking” in the description. It’s surprisingly hard.

Have we talked about how problematic it is that Taylor Sheridan’s constant defiant-act-of-choice for his “strong anti-hero” characters is that they smoke inside?

If autocorrect is an indicator on the progress of AI I’m more worried about annoyance than it ‘taking over’. Its insistence this morning that when I typed “snow plowing” I meant to write “snow pliéing” was baffling.

I really enjoy reposting without comment. I feel like social media has conditioned us to need to add an opinion. But I just want the original post to speak for itself.

In the pages of information around this medication, it is INSANE how hard it was to figure out how many to take. So I have to resort to this, for future me.
