Still no idea what I'm doing on social media after all these years but here I am.
Being in bed by 9.
What do you like now that 16 year old you would hate you for?

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

This is honestly one of the cleverest lines I’ve ever written and I remain ungodly proud of it.
Because @tkingfisher.com has a new book out, I finally got around to reading "Swordheart ", which led me to "Clockwork Boys", and this ✨absolutely delightful✨ line:

"Hours passed, like a kidney stone."

10/10, no notes.

A Gatsby theme party on eve of 10% of Americans loosing their food access. If you wrote that in a script people would call it heavy handed.
“The absolute worst part of working at a food bank is when you gotta tell people, 'that's all we got today. We're out.' And you know you can't send them anywhere because they're going to be out, too.”

Your ability to eat should not depend on your productivity

Your ability to get healthcare should not depend on your productivity

Your ability to get housing should not depend on your productivity

Saying “be more productive!” To those who are struggling devalues human life.

It aids fascism.

I good cried through this qhole thing.
We are magic.
The saga of the beautiful husky who needed a home, & the BlueSky folk who stepped forward to make an old-fashioned internet miracle...has had a lot of developments I've been too busy handling to update you all on.

She's ON HER WAY!

Don’t look now…but I think BlueSky has pulled off an old-school Internet magic: a family member passed & left behind a sweet baby husky on the other side of the continent…and BS angels came forward to relay her to me in time to get her out of the shelter.

I think my dogbaby’s coming home, guys!

Every once in awhile, I think of my favorite “…the fuck did you just say?” phraseology, which is from Homer’s Iliad, proving we have never, ever changed as a species, only less fancily inclined.

“What nonsense has escaped the barrier of your teeth now?”

This is also why service industries continue to enshittify, from Chipotle check out lines to airports to streaming. Vast majority of consumers simply don't matter to the actual functioning of the economy. Corporations do not exist to serve us. They serve the 6000 rich people hoarding all the wealth

People who drive with music so loud I can *feel* it in my own house have no concern, much less respect, for others and Im sure it reflects in other parts of their lives.
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

I (and perhaps you) get confused because we think intellect has to be connected with wisdom or thoughtfulness, but it just doesn’t. Intelligence is values-neutral and amplifies whatever it is pointed at.

Just to hammer this home- there are no societal problems for tech to solve. We already solved then. We know how to do clean energy. We know how to cut emissions. We have the resources to feed and house everyone. We've shown UBI and univ. healthcare work.

We just need to care enough to DO all of it.
The greatest difference we could make to our future generations is not…any of the shit we hear people saying about tech.

It is learning how to care for each other enough to create and hold a real, lasting peace.

Never watched any "reality TV" just didn't see the appeal.

Apollo 13
The Big Lebowski
Any Godfather films
Inspired by a post I just saw in which someone admitted they hadn’t seen a single episode of Friends nor the film Love Actually… what cultural hole do you have that’s a bit weird for your generation?

I’ll go first: I haven’t seen Dirty Dancing.

My personal timeline is full of autistic people trying to explain that there isn't more autism than before, it's just that we're better at detecting it, and there's nothing more autistic than hoping explaining something at length will help matters when nobody is really listening.
