All they could agree on was that they absolutely despised ears and would not be displaying them.

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

Reacher dares to ask the difficult questions. Like "what if a good guy was unreasonably large?" and "hey, wanna see a bunch of really punchable guys get punched?"

I know all software is created with AI now, so I’m “using” it in some second-order way. But programmers have always been perverts. All software was created with Emacs before and no one ever demanded I care about it (except the perverts). I’m normal, just leave me alone?

Hah! Thank you! I feel like we're gonna need a lot more of them. Hoping that translates into some job security! 😉

I get it! I hope you find the right thing. I've found it scary, but I feel relieved to be starting a new thing. It took me a long time to finally decide though.

Thank you! I haven't been sharing it widely, although it's definitely not a secret or anything. It was just time to do something different for me, and i realized I wasn't excited about tech any longer (and hadn't been for a while!).

Do you have a landing spot? I'm not out 100% yet. I start my grad program next week (which is terrifying tbh!). I hope to be a licensed therapist in about 3.5 years, so I'm still doing some light contracting while I have time.

Thanks! I only did a few episodes of the NNG podcast sadly, since I'm leaving tech. I had fun doing them though.

Went for a lovely walk up to Bernal Heights, ate a pastry on the way downhill, and saw a Waymo get stuck in an alley. Pretty much a perfect day.

[sighing to my wife at the table of a nice restaurant] No no no, milkshake ducks are just for racism. if you're complaining about fascists or homophobes, that's a drone metal orthodox priest guitarist. You don't think it makes a difference, but I'm saying it does. I am not raising my voice.

Elon Musk says he's going to have a robot workforce on the moon soon. "Third Way" centrist Democrats say they're going to spend $15 million to fight the specter of socialism. Sure, sure. Assholes say a lot of things.

Eating a package of ham at my desk like a caveman. It really does help make sure my coworkers are scared of me. “Oh that’s Susan. Don’t bother her during her ham time.”

bought candy at the pool for a 13yo and she tried to give me cash. i was like nahh it's nbd, and she goes "girl i have seen your car." 13yo girls remain undefeated. you think you're talking to a child but you're actually talking to whatever gods used to send to punish mortals for their hubris

In case you're wondering why that absurd Google Maps LLM feature got added, it's because Google promotes people based on their ability to shove whatever new bullshit Google is hyping into every conceivable product. Remember having to log in with Google Plus? Same deal.

Who am I kidding? None of clothes are nice enough to justify my new manicure.
A very elegant (in my opinion) French tip manicure with a pretty white flower painted on one nail.
