I thought the idea of a sex abuse ring at the highest levels of government was overheated and ridiculous.

I thought Captain America: The Winter Soldier having secret Nazi senators was over the top.

Stupid work conversation of the day: If you are giving tasks priority rankings from 1 to 5, is 1 the top priority (because you’re doing it first) or is 5 (because it’s “highest priority”)?

I’ve got a long backlog of hobby things I want to do and 3d print, but every night my energy gets sucked out of me and so the list just stays in my notebooks.

I have my 80 hours in for the pay period, so stepped out to try a new coffee shop and touch Some grass before going back for more meetings. Not feeling the need to go above and beyond.

And then when that was working so well it just kept showing me people I follow when I go to the Discover tab. Which was not what I thought it was for.
bluesky got me hooked by showing me posts by people I like and follow on purpose
