A rich and powerful man voluntarily bearing a cross onstage, but adding wheels so it's not remotely difficult, is the perfect picture for our country.

This is a reminder to everyone that vectors have both direction and magnitude.
It’s possible to be pointed in the correct direction, but way overshoot on magnitude.

Thank you for reading this Bsky equivalent of vaguebooking.

My team of 4 today had a combined 94 years of judge experience.

For all that is good and holy..if you come to me with a screen shot of a cryptic error asking “hey, what’s this mean” and can’t answer “what do the logs say?” I will yeet you to the fucking moon

With secret lairs, which is better:
-Hard to order, limited quantities, but they ship immediately
-longer window, print to order, but they ship 3-6 months later.

When we had the second, we complained about the long ship times. Now we have excellent ship times..but it’s harder to purchase.

As I’ve gotten older a lot of my political and social beliefs have changed to align with a simple concept:
I’d rather let a guilty person go free than jail an innocent person.
This applies to so much, ex. I’d rather allow some food stamp abuse if stopping it meant folks that need it go hungry, etc.

Is there a term where you have 5-6 tasks you’ve been putting off cause you’re mentally assigning 30-60 min for each task, but then do them all in 5-10 each and then you wonder why you delayed getting them done.

Tried to put a lady bug on my dogs nose to take a picture, and she ate it. RIP, literally.

Alright..it’s a road trip to an event.
What are you listening to on the drive!

I remembered the indecipherable ancient Sumerian bar joke (a dog walks into a bar and says "I can't see anything. I guess I'll open this one") and decided to read some of the other proverbs and jokes from the same collection and discovered that Sumer also had the original "No take! Only throw!" meme

If you are a federal employee, it is advised to set your social media accounts to private to prevent outside viewership, as reports suggest that loyalty screenings have begun.

ATTN: VA EMPLOYEES. I would recommend against using the Office of Accountability & Whistleblower Protection. In 2019, the VA Inspector General found that Trump used OAWP to TARGET whistleblowers. Contact democrats on congressional veterans affairs committees instead.

I’d like to suggest we name the gold foils from Aetherdirft “Mapplethorpe Foils”

I have never seen a preview that has made me want to interact with a set less. And that includes sticker nonsense.

I just can’t take Aetherdrift seriously. Every advertisement for it just reminds me of the old Hanna Barbara race cartoon Wacky Races.

Figured out a problem at work that’s been a small thorn in our sides for 6 years and it’s so deep and subtle in the logic there’s no one really to brag to about how I figured it out.
But like I almost want to leave for the day saying “I just peaked for the day. It’s all downhill from here”

Yeah…that’s sealed pack of 5 judge foil Mox opals…

It’s weird, but I get very proud of a dish I made when my normally picky eater of a daughter goes back for seconds and thirds.

My single biggest pet peeve in investigating software problems is when testers send *screen shots* of log files and not the actual log file.
