The train wifi has only worked for me one time. It's so frustrating.

Did I start going to a live weekly writing group at a coffee shop solely so I can have a third party witness to me typing into a document and not copying from prompts? No, but I'm not going to say it wasn't one consideration.

I'm friendly with horror writers. I don't read horror due to past traumas making it an unhealthy form of entertainment for me. I can still be friends with them and talk to them about their work.

Let's not just gloss over the fact that a sitting vice president should not be out on book tour. Like, I know there are a billion other legal and ethical issues to deal with before that one gets to the top of the pile with this administration, but it's still crazy.

When I see a post from a brand account I manage on my personal feed and quietly panic that I'm logged into the wrong account and start interrogating myself about what spicy takes I've recently posted...

Just heard a developer speaking about AWS's AI efforts and described it as a "the perpetual motion machine of incompetence" and that's so perfect and beautiful.

I watched a video of Adam Savage getting to visit one of the sets. I adore that pretty much everything was a practical set and not a green screen void.

This judge is so tired 😂

The Court has personally read every word of the four Wolff books and the six Freeman
drafts and nine sets of notes at issue in this case. That was a lot of reading. Each of Freeman’s first
five drafts is approximately 450 double spaced pages long. The sixth (Masqued 2016) is 108 pages
long; it appears to be incomplete. There are approximately 55 additional pages of notes, variously
single and double spaced. Each of Wolff’s four novels is about 650 pages long, but that number is
highly misleading because, with each successive volume, the print and the margins on each page
get smaller and the line spacing gets closer. When Wolff’s works are normed for changes in print
and margin sizes, they easily exceed 3000 pages – which means the Court has read upwards of
6000 pages of romantasy fiction.

I have discovered a hack for getting Dutch doctors to immediately take action on treating the condition you're seeing them for instead of kicking the can down the road. Compare them to the United States medical system. They HAAAAATE hearing that.

What I'm finding so interesting about this is they don't say WHEN he suffered the internal bleeding. Are they taking injuries from his previous incident being dragged by a vehicle and conflating with the shooting incident?

Trains are a great plan because the WiFi never works on them, so that will also turn down the volume on the world. But seriously, my advice is to unplug your internet router for awhile. I seem to get my best writing sessions in on planes becuase I don't have WiFi on a plane (I'm cheap!)

Dunno why I never thought of this, but the reason why self driving car companies do their "testing" out West is because there's less weather variability! Testing on public streets with people's lives at risk shouldn't be allowed, but... here we are.
