Saw an owl. Neat.
I am not thrilled that AI is going to eat the entire software industry alive because I work in it but me not being thrilled about it doesn’t change that it’s happening
I'm already sick of Go again. Put me back on fucking Python projects. Sigh.
Beautiful.
I need to step up my conditioner game. Rosemary argan oil is what im using.
One of my friends told me SoulSilver came out almost 20y ago.

Scene?
The front page of Ebooks Direct. A wizardly saurian and his twin brother regard a big pile of ebooks. Caption: "Want a bigger To Be Read pile? Click here for our bundles!"
Meanwhile, between power failures and hardware crap and actually trying to get some *WORK DONE,* I've had a longish day. Suspect I'll turn in soon. Want to assist a jobbing writer? Here, buy some ebooks WITHOUT paying a space-program-owning billionaire a commission. 🙂 ebooks.direct/collections/...
Some of my fastest lenses are kmount
If we are being honest: Claude didn't do any of those things.
People USING Claude as an excuse for greed extraction are.
• Claude didn't choose to work for the military.
• Claude didn't build data centers.
• Claude didn't defund mental health.
• Claude didn't refuse security protocols.
Humans did.
Three covers of my novel MASSIF. The UK and Australian ones have a photo-realistic approach, the US one is illustrative. All feature a seated figure looking up at a mountain range ascending into space. US cover illustration by Matt Griffon. UK cover by blacksheep.
Cover reveal time!
An adult science fiction novel tinged with horror, about the crew of a small warship in a relatively near future where humans hitch rides to the stars on sentient star-faring mountain ranges called Massifs.
Can be pre-ordered at the usual places, *please* do so. Thank you.

Is it worth waking up at 6am on your birthday to see a blood moon? I think sleeping in might be more worth it.
Glad the family is gone, this weekend was exausting, double birthday party for the kid and me.
I hate birthdays, I hate when people buy me shit I don't need.

Really not liking working in a different timezone from most of my coworkers. Online work is rough enough, but async is draining as fuck.
I tried to think of all the possible nonsense that could come out of the State of the Union address tonight and then realized there was enough possible nonsense I could just make Bingo cards.
Lots of textbooks on a lone shelf
I sold all my college ones back cus I was poor, and now I buy used ones from friends!
I wish the stress balls they gave us at work actually helped my stress. Too symbolic to be useful.
Yeah 19 year period. One of those things I never looked up
Oh there was one in 2007, not just 1988...
That's my birthday, and the last time there was a Lunar Eclipse on March 3 was the day I was born. I hope its not an omen!
Irrigation post lower wisdom tooth extraction is... gross. But really glad they gave me a kit
I need a new roof and solar. Your roof is tempting me!
Fuck this shit
