Who’s got two thumbs and just got had by an AI video? It me. I hate it here. Good news, Canada did not revoke access to its airspace to US carriers. Bad news, I had to check.

Man, forget promotions and leveling. How do I get a gig where I authorize my own compensation increases and what I can be held accountable for and it becomes federal law enforced by one of the greatest concentrations of economic, military and political power in history? That sounds friggin’ sweet.

coerce() was the python function that got me to start thinking about variables as references to things that took up an amount of memory and changing their type made them not the same. Before that it was just “these things aren’t the same so you cant just do stuff to them that changes their type”

Two very nice new cars just stopped by our free pantry, and I heard “¡oye mira! Diapers, toothbrushes, shoes, beans and rice… pretty cool huh?”

Someone was just showing off what we are doing… my heart grew three sizes this day, because someone who didn’t need it thought it was cool.

Wow, I hadn’t checked the Dow recently… not bombing people is still completely free.

The vinyl I didn’t know I needed was Ke$ha - Animal. Such an artifact.

Grilled slaps pretty hard too, but it needs to marinate so there’s enough liquid to steam it through.

I’m once again asking if anyone wants to help me setup bonelyfans.dog as a pixel fed instance for pet images.

In case anyone was wondering, earworming yourself with the protest chant “oink oink piggy piggy” does not make it feel safer to leave the house.

My therapist said that if your therapist says it’s OK we can crash out together this weekend if you want to.

An adult female cane corso dog lounges on a couch, experiencing a level of relaxation most adult humans can only imagine while cuddling a baguette pillow and swaddled in a tortilla throw blanket.

I did not need retail therapy and fear of murder by federal agents to align so closely. This timeline could simmer down a bit.

Gotta hand it to them - I ain’t been able to think about Palestine all week.

It’s the kind of day where you have a padlock randomly stop working on you - I sort of wish it had done so while locked so I had an excuse to use my bolt cutters.

Otherwise it’s like we’re collectively being sous vide. Cooked equally at every scale.

Yall - we are fractally cooked. The whole planet, at every scale. You should look up Gwar covering pink pony club, it’s basically the only thing I experienced today that was unequivocally good.

That feeling when you've spent hours analyzing client range request behaviors and finally give up and feed the basic details to gemini and it says "oh, this is default chromium behavior".

It feels like AI just told me "forget it Jake, it's chinatown" and I can't decide if that's good or bad.

Y'all, I am so angry. I spend the day working with people I trust solving hard problems, and then current events make have me googling bulk munition prices while trying to help my kid navigate out of warranty iPhone repairs. I think we should have read the terms and conditions more closely.

"without witness, without reward" is a really good principle to follow.

whether it's action, kindness, providing aid, or charity, you can do a lot of good in this world without seeking the validation that comes from the number on your post going up.

I was just settling into “ok, we did a regime change thing and congress is basically not doing its job at all” and now this shit? Does FMLA cover participation in a moderately organized militia? Are there KPIs we need to hit to cover being considered well organized?

Not shooting mothers on the way to pick up their kid from school IS FUCKING FREE. IT COSTS ZERO DOLLARS. Do we have to normalize terrorizing communities so we don’t do that? WTAF.

I’m very irritated that there are basically identical i2c screens with the ground and vcc pins flipped.

Liquid IV is neither liquid nor delivered intravenously. I also can't think of a better brand name than "bioavailable salt powder for your water so you drink more of it'" so I guess this is just where we're at.

My daughter just got proposed to. It’s weird to get to be a new dad twice without attending any births.
