The fact that "home in" and "hone" are starting to collapse into a single meaning is annoying, and the reasonable only solution is for us as a society to start teaching children knife throwing much earlier than we currently are

Trump can sign as many EOs as he wants but trans people are real. They are loved and cherished and valid and nothing he signs will change any of that. They are us and we will not allow them to be erased.

I feel like I can draw a direct line from my past policy of, "Zero minutes notice is a fine amount of notice for an acid trip" to my current policy of chugging any coffee I find left in my thermos, regardless of time of day. Anyway hi from a 7:45pm iced latte and A+ impulse control.

Putting away the dishes at someone else's house is a great way to seem helpful while also ruining their life in small but meaningful ways. Where does that vegetable peeler go? Wherever I want! Good luck!

I'm organizing the people in my field to define the terms on which we will and won't use artificial intelligence in our work (and working to remind myself and others that it's possible and ultimately necessary for us to be the ones to set those terms)

I have had a period for going on three decades and every month features some version of this scene: Me: Everything is the actual worst and I'm dying of malaise, I have never felt so low in my entire life Me two days later, when my period shows up: Oh I wonder if this is related somehow

One of the things I like about having kids is how low your bar for the miraculous becomes. A dinner everyone likes? Miracle! The kids are playing together happily? Miracle? Everyone sleeps past six? Say hallelujah, baby, cause you've got a miracle on your hands.

... you are wanting to use a prototype un-classed technology in a very hostile place. As much as I appreciate entrepreneurship and innovation, you are potentially putting an entire industry at risk.

From: Stockton Rush To: Rob McCallum Sent: March 26, 2018 Subject: RE: Sea Trials

I know that our engineering focused, innovative approach (as opposed to an existing standards compliance focused design process) flies in the face of the submersible orthodoxy, but that is the nature of innovation.

...

I have grown tired of industry players who try to use a safety argument to stop innovation and new entrants from entering their small existing market. Since Guillermo and I started OceanGate we have heard the baseless cries of "you are going to kill someone" way too often. I take this as a serious personal insult.

I have probably experienced greater dopamine surges than the one I got from having my BFF who hasn't seen me in four months tell me, "Wow, you look ripped" but this is the only one that came without a hangover and has lasted a full 24 hours. Strongly recommend.

What's your personal oddly specific phrase you use often enough that you could reasonably have a macro for it? Mine is: "DON'T GET ME STARTED ON FUCKING LEAP SECONDS", which obviously requires no further explanation.

Every time I take a break from weightlifting I'm like, "Oh, my diet isn't that different when I'm not lifting" and then I go back to it and spend the entire day shoving fistfuls of roast turkey into my mouth. Anyway *muffled chewing noises* weightlifting is great and everyone should do it

Actual text messages I just sent at the age of 42. I assume this change will mean I live to at least 100, because everyone knows trail mix and peanut butter pretzels are health food.

Two text messages reading: I don't want to alarm you but I've recently been trying a thing where I snack on stuff like trail mix and peanut butter pretzels instead of oreos or potato chips and it's much more pleasant for my body overall. Is that why you do this.
