So, we aren't in 1933. We're about at 1939.

It's been a few decades since I read A Canticle for Lebowitz and TBH I wish I was just an idiot who didn't care.

I think this was my most frequently used image over on the "other place".

Looks like it's time to dust it off again.

Qhen Alexa asks a question and my dog says arooo-rooo and Alexa says, "I'm sorry, I can't help you with that" and what are the techbros even doing with AI?!?!?!

Do better...

My grandma had dementia, time stopped. Recall was pristine up to a pt.

aunt= alzheimers, totally different. She lost all references and knew no one.

My ex= TBI, short term not reliable, not gone, personality changed

TFG= idiot not held to account. A spoiled brat. Like Elon, mommy's special boy.

I was just about to spend 300mm on x adverts when there was an unexpected ddos attack. Oh well, I guess I'll just buy another yacht.

I don't know why everyone is questioning Elon, we always test with 8mm concurrent voice connections, in non prod. Don't you?!?!?

Random observation, the impossible brand spicy sausage is sus as my dog stole one off the grill, and she is usually side-eying me with my plant-based meat as she ignores it. That shit is good.

I said on Slate Money this week that everyone is going to know who Curtis Yarvin is shortly because Thiel and Andreessen and Vance all buy into a lot of his theory and he’s no longer a fringe character among techno libertarians. Here’s a sampling of what he believes:

When it matters so much for dems to win the house and senate, currently serving MOCs are just alienating their supporters. We are screwed. And by we I mean not the George Cloonies of this earth. I'm not going to survive another 2016 with these asshats playing the rest of us for cannon fodder.

What the hell? Was Sherrod hacked? I just cannot anymore.

So, what if we fly the Ohio State flag upside down? It's not a trick question, I can't see the diff...but I'm kind of dumb.

One of my fist memories was Mom watching the Watergate hearings. Mostly because sesame street was pre-empted. I didn't understand the issue for a long time. I do now.
I think because I trusted our systems/politicians and just couldn't fathom this abuse. We were taught this couldn't happen.

Just thinking of a song I loved when I was a young woman about to graduate college...

And I quote "fuck you I won't do what you tell me"

Not sure where the last 30 years went but I'm angrier now.

I've worked for local small biz, large multinationals and just generally large enterprises. The WFH and in office pendulum swings wildly, but the real answer is to do what is best for your ppl. If you have lazy ppl, deal with them individually. It's almost like common sense....but I digress.

If a man were stabbed and I were a Dr, I guess it'd be cool if I needed that man, a lawyer, and some rando admin, explain why I should help him live. Sure, i could, but gonna have to ask you to sit in your car and think about how you were born with a penis and my beliefs don't recognize that.

I'm confused by the whole "white replacement" thing. Last I checked in the US:
A Christian church on every corner
Speaking English is still legal
You can wear your hair however you want
Your children aren't taken from you and given to "whoever you are scared of"
Hold 95% of positions of power
