My boss sits down with a clipboard and asks, "So how do you like to have sex?" He clicks his pen. "It's for diversity, you know. So you feel included. Please be professional and answer the question, all the normal people already did."

I kiss my baby and he leans back into me for more kisses. He makes his little kissy noises back at me as he walks away to play. I love being a parent.

These guys are unpopular and dumb as rocks, they did not discover a secret 'I win' button at the heart of all politics labeled 'mean tweets' or 'cancel elections.'
Keep speaking, keep writing, keep marching, keep voting, force them to show the country what they are.

I just failed my sixth round of applications, all of which got right to the last stages. I don't know what to do anymore. I'm genuinely not okay. My family will be homeless soon and it's all my fault.

I've spent the last 13 years of my life begging these people to tell me what's wrong with me so I can fix it, and being met only with scalding silence. At a certain point, you have to decide that even if you are a terrible person and don't know it, you don't have the information to change that fact.

Whenever someone gets mad at me for questioning the net usefulness of AI and says something like “you’re like the people who didn’t want to use the internet”—with love, I was born in 1997, and my life growing up online is all the evidence I need that we should handle AI differently than we are now

Sometimes someone you trust does something so monumentally shitty that it flips a bit in the universe and every kind thing they ever did in the past to gain that trust suddenly appears shitty too. I've had a few of them now. I guess I'm getting used to it.
