If you apply for a lead developer position, you really ought to be comfortable with: gathering requirements, selecting a tech stack, designing architecture, and leading a dev team. If you can't do any of those things, you really should consider other opportunities.

Fuck Russia and fuck this administration.

After meeting with Witkoff yesterday, who said “offering Russia the 4 territories would be the fastest way to achieve ceasefire”..

Reuters: Putin agrees to ceasefire if Ukraine surrenders the rest of Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, Luhansk & Donetsk (about 1 mln people; for some regions as much as 40%)

Bathroom sink repair is done. I had a spare piece of project board laying around so I cut it to match the profile of the existing fiberboard, stained and poly'd it to match the rest of the woodwork, then glued it to the damaged wood and clamped it securely. You almost can't tell it's new wood.

Some idiots in Texas (y'know, where Freedom is...free...or something?) are proposing a law to prohibit "non-human activities" in schools.
Every time I think we can't get any dumber, we do.
Read it, but be prepared to take some INT damage.

"I'm going to replace my toilet paper dispenser. Easy peasy, right?"
Samuel L Jackson voicover: "Sad to say it, but that motherfucker was dead wrong."
They glued the dispenser to a particle board surface. So a simple task has turned into a minor woodworking project.

Me, noticing Roland lounging in the bathroom sink:
Me: *touches faucet handle* You know, I can traumatize the fuck out of you with a simple flick of my finger.
Roland: *gives me a cute look*
Me: Seriously...I could do it...
Roland: *continues to look cute*
Me: But I won't, because I'm a nice guy.
