I write help #docs for software. I enjoy reading all sorts of things from psychology to theoretical physics to Murderbot and other sci-fi. I'm a TNG Trekkie that stans Janeway. I watch the LOTR trilogy every year around New Year's.

Finally giving Ghostty a try after using the default macOS Terminal app for the last four years.

A reminder that FSA money not spent in the calendar year is lost to you.

The beneficiary? Your company.

For an administration that wants to completely gut the administrative apparatus, the government #shutdown is a feature, not a bug. It's just doing what they wanted to do anyway, so there's no reason to work to reopen.

You’re not unmotivated.

You’re overwhelmed.

You’re not “too sensitive”.

You’re attuned.

You’re not dramatic.

You’re dysregulated.

Language has been used to wound us.

It’s time we take it back.

Being autistic doesn’t make you a bad person.

I can’t say this enough.

Today, I greatly de-news-i-fied my feed.
Maybe I can stand to use this app more as a result.

I'm already staying plenty informed through other means.

Might do something weird and read an unread book I already own.

US founding documents say, "all men are created equal".

Now, at the time, "men" meant white, of European descent, male, and a property owner. Any other combination of human spectrum disqualified you from this equality right.

Our power isn't in our voice, they just ignore it.
Our power isn't in our vote, that's gerrymandered away.

Our power is in our labor.
Our power is in our spending.

When we really want to do something, those are what we'll have to use.

Fresh baked chocolate chip oatmeal cookies for dinner. Six of them. Because I'm an adult and I can.

Besides, have you seen the world?!

Dropping a kid off at a summer camp thing for a few days hosted by a college. Two things:

1. Colleges haven't changed much, still very college like.
2. Exception: Dorm situations have improved significantly to what I had back in the day.

I injured up upper left abs last Tuesday. I'm 5 days in to avoiding much of anything for three to six weeks while it heals. And I'm ready to have my abs back already.

Perhaps my habit of getting snacks of a spoonful (or two?) of peanut butter is part of the problem with my expanding waistline.

Not sure who needs to hear this, though mostly those in power and c-suite offices, I think.

There is no such thing as low skill or unskilled labor.

How I won Mother's Day?

I took the mom of the house to Bath and Body Works yesterday and let her splurge.

The splurges showed up as gifts today. (No surprise, she knew that's why we were there yesterday.)

And she's now enjoying the fruits of her choice pickings.

Back when I signed up for Bluesky, I turned my feed into a Flood of Doom and Dystopia™.

I now seek to undo that damage and make this a place I can actually come to and use.
