Whenever I interact with a server who’s a trans woman, the old-Southern-man part of my brain tries to convince me that casually calling her “hon” would be very progressive and gender-affirming of me, and then I have to gently remind that part of me that a weird-old-man ally is still a weird old man

I’m in an Uber on a dark, rainy morning, hurtling toward the airport on slick, misty roads, in a world where tablet computers are such a cheap commodity that there’s a screen attached to the headrest in front of me, serving really bright ads into my eyeballs for the benefit of Uber shareholders

I had a dream that Al Jolson died, and I felt conflicted about celebrating his life and legacy in the public sphere because most people just know him for being the single most famous blackface act in Hollywood history… but then I woke up and realized that Jolson has not, in fact, lived for 139 years

I've never been into Zachtronics-style games, and Kaizen has definitely been a slow burn, but it's hooked me. I'm so proud of my dogshit coffee-maker manufacturing process

🇫🇷 Culture shock upon visiting France: damn, so many people still smoke here, don’t they realize how addictive and harmful cigarettes are

🇺🇸 Culture shock upon returning to the US: holy shit why are children walking around drinking 20oz bottles of soda with 65g of sugar per serving

“Hail team well met” hasn’t caught on?

My new favorite bit of corporate jargon is “Hi team,” which is apparently a required salutation when posting a question or request to a large Slack channel. Variants include “Hey team,” “Hello team,” and “Hi team 👋”

I love Kunio Okawara’s OG Gundam illustrations- they have such a campy, toy-commercial vibe, but they still hit the cool-as-hell 70s sci-fi nail right on the head
