malibrated @malibrated.net · 24/06/2023I’ve been away a while. What controversies have I missed in the past couple of weeks? 000
malibrated @malibrated.net · 10/06/2023Cutting up carrots for my toddler because she wants to be a bunny, watching my son practice his new world-exploration-by-crawling skills. 010
malibrated @malibrated.net · 03/06/2023Yeah I did that too! Wanted to minimize the downsides of being an old dad haha. Thankfully my daughter’s favorite pastime is lounging (although this also means she makes her carry her everywhere when we’re out and about) 210
malibrated @malibrated.net · 03/06/2023Haha no worries it’s 100% under control now and it also inspired me to take my health and fitness seriously, so it was a positive thing for my life, on balance. 120
malibrated @malibrated.net · 03/06/2023It reminds me of the time I woke up with a “sprained ankle” very confused because I did nothing athletic during the day, and the first rationale that occurred to me was that I became a night-time crime-fighter while asleep. 220
malibrated @malibrated.net · 01/06/2023Remembering the time when I thought the website for the purported uK-Italian electric company “powergenitalia.com” had me laughing for days. 000
malibrated @malibrated.net · 01/06/2023That sounds grand! My time on being unemployed after the dot-com crash was meaningful to me— I survived on rice and beans, and simplicity— but my burdens were few. 110

malibrated @malibrated.net · 01/06/2023Someone like Kyla Scanlon would contribute high-value, strong vibes content here, but I would also worry about her mental health should she ever join. 120
malibrated @malibrated.net · 01/06/2023They also don’t want to face the awful truth of the undergrad scam. 010
malibrated @malibrated.net · 31/05/2023People who emphasize they went to the Ivies *as undergrads* know the grad school scam but don’t want to hurt people’s feelings. 140
malibrated @malibrated.net · 31/05/2023I would give you allllll my votes and even some I bought on ebay 120
malibrated @malibrated.net · 31/05/2023I remember talking to an acquaintance years ago— a Big 4 consultant— who had a big project at one of the major studios, and one of the first things her client (an executive) did was brazenly sexually harass her, and he kept doing it! I was shocked that such conduct was basically accepted. 010
malibrated @malibrated.net · 31/05/2023Maybe an explanation for why so many Hollywood types seem so hyper-sensitized to identity politics issues is their experiences in a particularly toxic industry. My experiences in tech and law have never been as bad as what I hear about in entertainment. 110

Is it ethical to kill an apex predator after it kills its food *for* its food? If a tiger kills a cow and I immediately shoo the tiger away can I eat the cow? 000
malibrated @malibrated.net · 30/05/2023Always confused me why they called IRC++ “discord.” Seems like asking for trouble. 010
malibrated @malibrated.net · 30/05/2023Haha maybe! Kind of like the qanon phenomenon had people seeing pedos and illuminati everywhere? 110
malibrated @malibrated.net · 30/05/2023Do we start the ban brigade now? Memorial Day is basically over so maybe we can get a jump start on work. 000
