Other airports are just jealous because we're already leading the "people killed by major airline incidents" race in the last two years. Just trying to strengthen that lead.

A popular meme, "is this a butterfly", but the butterfly is airline risk And the caption reads "is this winning?"

@jeremydmiller.bsky.social I was at the zoo yesterday for a bit and naturally ended up explaining event sourcing to someone I was with. Thanks! 😆

This is who runs this account

An old-school elementary photoshoot of a toddler-age me. A 3-4 year old white boy in a blue striped polo leans on what appears to be fake grass with a tree backdrop. He has a big goofy smile and an egghead but he seems pretty confident things are going ok.

Suggest using non-descript submissions until the comments, to decrease the likelihood it will be filtered out.

A submission to the form suggested by the original post. The subject is "Transcript Request", the Show is Jimmy Kimmel Live, the Category is "I've got a video or transcript request", and the description reads "I'd like a transcript of the meeting in which ABC management decided to allow ideas to be silenced by fear. I imagine this historical level of cowardice must have come with some good banter."

Really bringing this energy

Might as well use my dormant Twitter account to burn some bridges:

A screenshot of my Twitter reply to @ashtom (Thomas Dohmke). I say:

Ooh nice rhyme! I have another:

The evidence does show: if you can't embrace all devs, you shouldn't be GitHub CEO.

I only heard about this tweet because of the near universal condemnation across all of my feeds. You may want to rethink.

On the other side of the spectrum, also picked up peach ghost pepper hot honey. So good. Also, maybe deadly? TBD! Also picked up: a sunburn. Worth it.

A jar of almost molasses colored honey. The jar reads "peach ghost pepper hot honey".

Went to the Occoquan River Festival today with the family. Had a great time! Also, I discovered *freeze-dried Skittles*?! It's like big Skittles flavor but puffy and crunchy. I'm hooked.

A plastic tub of freeze dried skittles. They have skittle colors but look like they are expanded and have a white layer in the middle.

LinkedIn, removing "reading the room" from its list of skills.

A screenshot of LinkedIn, with a heading that says "Sean, what role are you hiring for?" Below it is a text box for "Job title". Below that is a bright blue button that says "Draft job with AI". This is...gross.

Can confirm that it appears to accept external emails....

An email I sent to the email address in question. It states "Wanted to ensure I provide the facts. The fact that this email even exists should be a shame that follows anyone involved for the rest of their days."

They're already packaged up because I had to do it now or never 😅

697 Welsh cookies. On a kitchen table, there are 3 large Tupperware bins, arranged in a pyramid. In front of the bins are 6 Ziploc gallon bags. On top of the two bottom bins are two gallon ziploc bags. And on top of the top bin are also two gallon Ziploc bags.
