Has the wink emoji literally ever _not_ been creepy?
Like - IRL winks can be not creepy in the right circumstances. But something about 😉 just has a sense of....menace? malice? I'm not sure exactly what it is, but there are no words you can put near 😉 to make it be un-creepy.

Q: Relax! Racism is a boomer problem! As old people die off, the younger generation takes over! Young people are less racist! Right?
A: No. People do not become more "conservative" as they get older. That's a lie.

The infrastructure of the Internet would run longer without electricity than without trans folks tbh
If the US blocks access to HRT, ADHD drugs, and SSRIs, I cannot begin to describe to you how much all of the tech sector will screech to a halt. The internet is built and maintained by trans people, people with chronic depression, and the neurodivergent.

RFK Jr. is already taking aim at antidepressants
The new HHS secretary has made baseless claims that the drugs are addictive and cause violent behavior.

Just realized this could mean "you did a dumb thing" or "it was dumb that you got in trouble" 😂
My answer for the latter would be I got busted for buying candy cigarettes in 4th grade on a field trip to the West Side Market in Cleveland 🚭

In second grade (so this would be like 1989ish) I brought my pocket knife to school to show my friends. It had a fork and spoon on it - it was really cool. I then proceeded to lose it on the playground during recess.

The Compressed podcast with Amy Dutton and @jamesqquick.bsky.social has become one of my favorite tech pods (other than the @virtualcoffee.io podcast obviously)
Their recent no-guest Q&A was really great! I always worry those will end up being self indulgent or self referential but nope!
