Morning convo:
Me: Wait, I'm going to relive this in 4-5 years?
Daughter: I dunno, brother may not have my humor.
M: He probably will. Wait...you'll be gone by then?
D: YEP!
M: Nooo, stay and help mommy!
D: NOPE!
M: Fine, I'll just say "Go stay with your sister" sometimes.
D: That's not nice.

As much as I hate networking and that most of my jobs have been obtained because of knowing someone in the right place...I'M SO GLAD I KNOW SOME PEOPLE IN THE RIGHT PLACES.

THANK YOU ALL!

Don't mind me...just sprinting back and forth from home in relaxed mode Crocs because my kid forgot a vital thing for school today.

The vital thing is a potato.

Stop using Amazon.

If you gave someone $1 million every day since the birth of Jesus Christ, they'd have about $741 billion.

But that's still less than Elon Musk, who's currently worth $841 billion, according to Forbes.

I basically just figured out that text chatting with my friend online while working on my own things is the body doubling I needed to stay awake and focused today and I love that for me.

When filling out a form, if making a choice changes the value of another field, it should be a field that would logically come AFTER the field you've updated.

WHY DO THE NOTIFICATIONS I SET UP GO AWAY IF I CHANGE WHAT CALENDAR THIS EVENT IS ON??? #WebDevRant

Kids are home from school for possible hazardous road conditions and son just broke out singing "Daisy Bell (Bicycle Built for Two)".

Where am I?

There's just something nice about seeing Yahya Abdul-Mateen II playing another powerful super-being on my tv. 😍

Getting a rejection email on a snowy Saturday night is interesting.

I came here to post about breaking fourth walls that don't exist and was hijacked by these updates into my own cozy post. Luckily I remembered my original thought and also posted it. Carry on into cozy greatness, ma'am. 🍲🧶

The way I break the non-existent fourth wall to pull a camera stare should be studied and offered a reality show.

I'm feeling the need to have a girls night in where we wear the coziest things possible, have soup, wine, fancy chocolates, face masks, hot tea (literally and figuratively), grandma activities, and talk about all the entertaining books and tv shows we've recently consumed.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

As smart as my phone is why can't the predictive text get "in" and "on" right???

My sweet baby boy has discovered "dese nuts".

🤣🤣🤣😂😂🥹😭😭😭🥹😂😂🤣🤣🥹🥹😭😭😭🙃🙃🙃

I can code. Who has an open position for me?

Literally sitting in a car dealership trying not to cry in public because of the kindness of friends and feeling awful that they even need to be this kind to me.

I can't even conceive of what I'd do with over like, $10 million besides helping as many people as I could. It feels like having that much money would quickly become irritatingly boring af.

I'm battling feeling like a complete failure because I can't seem to get a job while knowing that if I ever had anywhere near a billion dollars no one around me would be in need of anything and I hate it here.

Seriously. Someone pay me to do something. Legal. Preferably with a W2 and salary. Please.

Y'all have Netflix and chill.

I have Crunchyroll and crochet.

We are not the same.

They keep reposting a position at a company that they've already turned me down for twice.

Yes, I'm going to keep applying and annoying them until they hire me, because I know I'm qualified (and it's a bonus that their system makes putting in applications really easy).

The search function shouldn't stop working on a government website. #WebDevRant

if you want stable and reliable software, give developers stable and reliable employment

You have a section of your website that you update every single business day. You add a new page with the things you've approved that day and the link text is basically "Updates for <Mon. Day, Year>".

STOP USING ARBITRARY NUMBERS FOR THE PAGE URL

USE THE DATE

MAKE IT MAKE SENSE

But also...

...I now know what my parents were up to when I was out on feral time without any fear for when the street lights came on and wow...

...the 80s/90s were a time.

A TIME.

I'd love to be able to send my kids outside for hours with a key and no way to contact me but I'd totally be villainized if one of them caught a sniffle and I wasn't in earshot with tissue, an inhaler and epi pen, nose spray, and a physician ready to go.

Just saw that flying with a certain airline (but could be more) has been gamified beyond extra points/perks/status.

Like, Spotify Wrapped for air travel? Badges???

I miss the simple days when it took 3 business minutes to dial a phone number & we were mad when we had to learn area codes locally.

Been using Herbs de Provence to cook steak this week and omg yes.
