Remember when we all acted like DOGE was a legitimate and legal government entity that we should take seriously and follow all their orders for some inexplicable reason? That was so weird.
The White House quietly shut down the Department of Government Efficiency today.

Thinkin' bout the time the CEO of my previous employer was added to the OKC office group/nonsense chat out of nowhere and the following 15min I spent deleting most of my messages from the previous 6 months.

Poor Things is still my favorite Yorgos Lanthimos/Emma Stone movie, but Bugonia is far more entertaining.

God being off Twitter for so long made me forget how petty stormchasers are about supposed "content theft".

3 years since a Nazi bought Twitter and 1 year since that purchase helped elect Trump. That's enough time to realize that posting on Bluesky is better than posting on Twitter, even if it means a temporary (or even permanent) hit to total engagement numbers.

Idk if I've ever known anyone personally who started a business and didn't eventually turn into an absolute menace because of it.

I don't remember what class it was for or what the writing assignment was about, but I forgot about some sort of writing assignment that had to be uploaded to Blackboard at 11pm until an hour before it was due and got it uploaded with less than 30sec to spare and got an A-. I am AI.
I scrapped and rewrote a 2000 word history paper with eleven sources and four properly cited images at 3AM before a 9AM that I had to drive 45 minutes to.
I got a perfect score and I am genuinely not exaggerating when I say I do not think the professor ever knew.
AI could absolutely never.

I wrote a 15 page report on heraldic symbolism in medieval armor and weapon design for my art history class the night before it was due (8am class). Made up 90% of it (only found one book for reference) and got an A. GenAI could fucking never.

Been on a roll so far with managing to find a good primary care doctor and dentist, hoping the streak continues for a therapist and I don't have a repeat of the one I tried in Norman who quite literally asked me "well have you tried making friends?" when I said I was having loneliness issues.
