Inflation is such frustrating bullshit.

I must be very dull because this quote from a finance paper amused me:

“Homes are a depreciating asset. People get really angry with me when I say that.”

YouTube video by Ben Felix Renting vs. Buying a Home: What People Get Wrong

Interesting very detailed video about renting vs buying.

Happy Jonathan Coulton day to those who celebrate.

I’m practicing nebulas. Got the idea from this video by Paul Ranson Art: youtu.be/Jx3-VVd0qrw?...

Her job is to remove homeless people from SF's parks. Her methods are extraordinary Instead of forcing people out of Golden Gate Park, ranger Amanda Barrows helps them find housing.

Helping unhoused people is hard, but it’s more effective when they get treated like people instead of problems.

The second lesson!

Today I was butch and fixed a toilet. Didn’t flood anything either.

The Star Trek: Section 31 movie is…. Amazingly awful. Impressively awful.

It’s a combo heist/whodonit movie.

I seriously wonder if the script was written by AI…

When satire becomes reality…

Phillip and their Mom got me Bob Ross landscape painting lessons for Christmas.

My first lesson went awesome.

The neoliberal arrogance of President Barlett’s administration suddenly looks so quaint and silly.

High-context communication culture is very frustrating at times. But I suppose this is now standard in medium to big tech.

I very much look forward to the day when USB-C completes its takeover of my life and I can dispose of this entire drawer of adapters and cables.

These companies tried a 4-day workweek. More than a year in, they still love it Most of the companies in a U.K. trial were so pleased with the results — improved wellbeing, lower turnover, greater efficiency — they've made the four-day workweek permanent.

Almost a year old, but interesting.

Of 61 companies who trialed a 4-day work week, 54 kept it.

Productivity remained the same. Employee happiness went up. Revenue went up. Costs went down.

The 2023 movie “Bottoms” is a crazy funny bizarre high school comedy with a body count, written and produced by women.

Highly recommended.

Why are upholstered bed frames now the popular thing?

Our kitty taking a regal nap in the golden hour. ❤️

In the post-COVID era, getting a regular cold seems rather quaint and old fashioned.

Happy annual unsubscribe from marketing emails day to all who celebrate.
