@rorysmith.bsky.social @meninblazers.bsky.social won this at a Christmas party’s White Elephant gift exchange tonight.
Dang. Maybe it was a guest. Oh well. Thanks for the response. Now go put up some Xmas lights outside. :)
@tolin.ski Am I remembering correctly that you once mentioned on the pod that you have something that allows you to seamlessly switch your Apple Magic Keyboard and Magic Mouse between multiple MacBooks? If I am, what do you use for that?
Be prepared for Asshat to do everything he can to prevent elections from happening in 2026. Start organizing against it now.
this is a reminder that we dont have to settle for newsom in 2028
i hope this election cycle empowers everyone the next time a centrist liberal says to drop pro-trans and pro-immigrant rhetoric to enthusiastically tell them to shut the fuck up
@tolin.ski you just gotta keep those scrambled eggs moving in the stainless steel pan until they start to firm up to avoid that burn layer.
@derekberes.bsky.social @matthewremski.bsky.social @julianwalker.bsky.social Speaking of a lack of new ideas from the Democratic party, are you familiar with @corbintrent.bsky.social's Substack? One of the few voices from the left with concrete ideas. Highly recommended.

@ladybug.dev So happy for the return of the podcast and this season’s focus on Engineering Management. I made the move from Lead UX Engineer (influenced very highly by the writing of @emmabostian.bsky.social) to UXE Mngr about 2.5 years ago, but still feel like I have so much to learn. Can’t wait!
One cool way to solve homelessness that isn’t an authoritarian take over of a city is to give everyone homes

Needed pitching yesterday.
"...and concern about the facts. I see them really as being part of what Robert J. Lifton refers to as the "thought-terminating cliche" that enables cult indoctrination."
"So to me, I don't see a really big difference between the hammer and the sickle, the stars and stripes, the swastika, or indeed the crucifix, in the sense that these are all devices for instigating and intoxicating and transcendent loyalty that too easily ignores moral clarity and courage..."
And the reason I'm deeply suspicious of it is I feel it's always a vehicle for justifying superiority, and oppression, and cruelty, and sabre-rattling because now we're going to go to war against the people who are not from our great nation..."
"And I got in big trouble for this... My entire life I've been disgusted by nationalism and its mouth-breathing, masturbatory cousin patriotism. The abstract symbols: the flags, the self-agrandizing identifications of national pride... all of that just seems totally empty to me..."
"I'll get personal here for a moment because having grown up in a police-state myself under apartheid South Africa, I was the kid [who] refused to sing the national anthem in music class. We were there to study music, I did not want to sing a political anthem that justified the apartheid regime..."
@julianwalker.bsky.social My dad also grew up in apartheid SA and instilled in me the same values you speak to in your denunciation of nationalism and patriotism in the latest episode. It was so nice to hear those same thoughts that I've struggled to articulate over the years spoken to so clearly.
Yes to a podcast, please.
