In terms of people who would make the world a lot better if they got knocked down to $10 million, Larry Ellison is almost certainly top 10, and it's a crowded field.
Larry Ellison is worth $392 billion.
He's bought:
—Sailing team ($875 million)
—Estate in Cali ($200 million)
—98% of a Hawaiian island ($300 million)
Now he's trying to acquire TikTok, HBO, CNN—and push them right.
A lot of good his giant tax breaks are doing the rest of us.

Yup I got fired. Over a comment made under a post about the demise of a podcaster.

People missing an important point about folks getting fired for whatever they said about Charlie Kirk: Americans are being conditioned to be snitches on their fellow citizens who don’t toe a party line on what is “allowed” to be expressed. And employers are going along. It’s the new secret police

it really is astonishing how quickly it goes from “civil war” and “blood in the streets” to “wow guys it’s just a sad tragedy” when it becomes inconvenient

Someone sent a screenshot to my new job’s HR if me making a comment on a private post that was briefly made public of me saying the world is a better place without CK in it. I got dragged in front of HR and the company president about it and I was like… it’s not a Hatch Act violation as the person…

Been thinking about Speaker For The Dead a lot the last few days. And also Odysseus. Interesting head space.

First day of work at the new job tomorrow 😬😬😬 we’ll see how much fun it is transitioning back to a full-time office setting after almost 5 1/2 years full time WFH/ unemployed/ freelance. I got so anxious I’ve kind of just shut down and am floating around the house like a Victorian waif spirit.

Thank you, me, for previously investing in the tool kit sets everyone else said was excessive, because those socket wrenches were needed! And a 3/32 hex wrench, wtf is that siiiize?

Apparently a good way to shake up a friend’s depression is to talk to her like you’re picking up a hooker and negotiate rates.
I was the John in this scenario. Her whole demeanor changed in a heartbeat 🤣

And my rat bastard ear infection came back so I’m just a ball of misery and eepies anyway, because the travel is to go see my favorite Kpop group. Is just not fair.

Nothing reminds you of the value of open lines of communication and consent like traveling alongside people with their own (nonsexual) power dynamics. They very clearly don’t see it, and when the intermediary is the subby one… let’s just say I’m never doing this again with these two people. Ever.

Really muscling down some fear and anxiety over working over my resume again. Ever feared a document? I’m there.

Whatever impostor syndrome you may have once had, dispose of it fucking immediately. If these people run the country, you deserve that promotion, you can run for city council, you can start that business. If this is the baseline, shit, you can do surgery drunk in an alley and you will do less harm.
The entire administration is going to be staffed by Fox News hosts

I’m playing a favorite bbc miniseries (Little Dorritt) while scrubbing the floors. Haven’t watched in a few years because it’s kind of sad, but I’m kind of depressed so it’s all good. But BOY. I didn’t know then the father in the story isn’t having delusions of grandeur, he’s just sundowning. Ouch.

Found out that my friends don’t sort their Lego parcels before building. They looked at me like I was nuts and then I blasted through my builds really fast.
I think this matches up to me saying I’m and ideas person and not an execution person. I’ll dream it, just don’t make me do it.

Just sold a piece of furniture to a lovely woman who, while introducing herself to Chester, told me about her cat named Bruschetta that she calls Bruce. STOP. I LOVE IT!

STILL ON DRUGS but it feels better.
Another 10 days on antibiitics, and now I’m at a crisis point. As in the next 48 hours might include an eardrum rupture on an eardrum that’s already ruptured once. Which is bad. Bad bad.
Ten whole days of antibiotics and ouches.
AND IT CAME BACK TODAY 😭😭😭
