My job has changed, but not that much.

Well, Gemini also had to make me look surprised/shocked/clickbaited :D But also it gave me more foundation and blush which I don't bother with at work...hahah

OK full disclosure, that was Gemini-generated but using my current profile pic. (reality: I look even more fabulous than my AI self :D)

Fuck, I read this headline as Devops and was *SO CONFUSED*.

2) Vancouver. I am loving the blue, I am *LOVING* the cream, and I am L😍O🥰V🤩I💖N💗G the blue + cream + orange. Please don't f*** up the logo/name announcement next month. 9.5/10 1) Montreal Victoire. 10/10. It's perfect. The colour, the name, the logo, No notesy 4/4 fin.

4) Toronto Sceptres. Great logo, good balance between blue & gold. But Yellow=Saskatchewan not Toronto, otherwise we'd be a 9. 8/10 3) NY Sirens. Love the NY style, logo is itself Siren, and S-S-S being sound waves? GREAT. 8.5/10 3/4

6) Boston Fleet. Bland B, meh green. But I dunno. It's kind of a vibe, especially with the cyan trim. 7.5/10 5) Seattle. I was hoping for more vibrancy in the Green. But that cream...oh it's so good. Foreshadowing. 7.5/10 2/4

Rannking all the PWHL kits+vibes now that @pwhl--vancouver.bsky.social is ready. Worst to best. 8) Ottawa Charge. Nothing wrong with it, nothing right either. Why do Ottawa teams overindex on Canadian-red? 6/10 7) Minnesota Frost. Love the purple, the actual logo is too corporate-bland. 7/10 1/4

This cut. The needle drop to Steely Dan. I burst out into tears. I'm not even kidding. One Battle After Another is as good as you heard. I cried at the end too, but it's the end of Act One that's staying with me and I can't stop thinking about the next day.

I've been surprisingly restrained with making trans girl memes, so far in my transition, even though making memes is like my love language. So here's one, in honour of fall starting properly.

Would it be too overly-online to start describing Charlie Kirk as a lolcow?

So yes npm is the Node Package Manager, but it is not an acronym for Node Package Manager, it is an acronym for "npm is NOT an acronym", which is kind of a homage to the acronym GNU which, you know how when most people refer to Linux what they're actually referring to is, in fact, GNU/Linux, and...

Not anymore, I've lasered off my denial beard, and I'm a lot happier for it.

I recognize that "follow != endorse" but 50 is still disheartening. DHH has gone from arbitrary "I just want to focus on running a company not solving every DEI world issue" concerns to railing against non-white immigration & now gender ideology grooming talking points. Enough. Forget this fool.

Rookie ADHD procrastinator behaviour. That's when you hit 'em with one of: * "Oh i was working on it offline" or * "Oops I think I must've had access to an older version" Then you LOCK IN and do everything in the time it would've taken a neurotypical to copy and paste a paragraph in Sharepoint.

Me (and this is an exact quote that I'll never forget because it is so cringe): "I had to push what I learned out of my mind so that I wouldn't be confused with the calculus course I was taking.". So anyways that was a more believable and plausible story than what Elon pitched here. 2/2

There's an infamous tumblr quote (screenshot) but it applies to a wide variety of IRL scenarios (personal & professional) where people talk past each other without realizing they think they have the same goal but have dramatically different expectations. So I was thinking today about AI art... 1/

Every an ivy league agrees to eradicate trans people from their campus, I'm going to keep pointing this out: >$510 million in federal funding was at risk for the institution. > $7.2 billion endowment Cowards. www.politico.com/news/2025/07... investment.brown.edu/endowment

So real!!! I used to always hate pictures of myself and my smile specifically. Not anymore! Because he's real. Here are a couple more recent ones 😁

So they have 127 years worth of the lost federal funding in their endowment but folded like a lawn chair. Cool. Cool cool cool.

This tweet has 5x the amount of likes than the most-liked tweet in the 3 screenshotted there. Embarrassing, Elon.

Here's a fun question. Who determines what is "trending on X" in the Google result. Is it Google, is it X, and might it have any reason to put it's thumb on the scale. Confirmed in Incognito Mode. Why is "America First Post" with <1K likes showing up on this?

TIL Reddit is fundamentally fucked in ways I didn't even imagine. /r/changemyview auto-deletes any references to "trans" because they feel the ADMINS do biased enforcement of trans discussions. www.reddit.com/r/changemyvi... (screenshot section of my deleted comment)

Connor McDavid is a dirty player who wields his high stick dangerously & gets away with it all the time - at least once/game against the #Canucks. I didn't see any other skilled stars do this - not Lemieux, Crosby, MacKinnon, etc. The #Oilers fans defending him are an embarrassment.

So no, you can't apply this study to "self-driving cars" without context. Who's working on the tech? Tesla? Uber? Google? I trust each differently. Where is it rolled out? California? Texas? I trust each's regulations differently. The question isn't the technology, it's the implementation. 6/6

As I get older I grow weary of studies like this that make it seem like humans are simple-to-trick creatures & susceptible to fallacies depending on how you present an idea. The opposite is true: Humans are suspicious & good at reading between the lines when appropriate. Let's use this example: 1/

I'm still fairly new to Bluesky, so my 2024 wrapped is based on Twitter, and honestly? I feel pretty seen. Here's to more of this in 2025: twitterwrapped.exa.ai/pinskinator?...
