Maybe you were traumatized after the potato blight in another life. I still think yer a monster.

Potatoes last. . . are we even sisters? Pfft!

wishing you a festive mental breakdown

Petition to stop capitalizing the "i" in "AI" and just call it "Ai". When you capitalize it, it just looks like some guy named "AL". OpenAL. GenerativeAL. No. It ends now. There is only one Al, and it's Sgt. Al Powell.

Every single day there is something to do and I, for one, am sick of it.

Something that came up in a FB memory. It made me smile, so. . .

Updating my Discord profile, I set my preferred "identifies as" to she/her/problem. I think I'm on to something here. . .

Long ago I listened to ZBS Radio. They had a sci-fi story where some creative madman invented a thing and promised

"FREE ELECTRICITY FOR EVERYONE!"

I googled but can't find it now. So instead, here's Hank Green! youtu.be/39YO-0HBKtA?...

I need this book! Lol 😅🤣😂

Four day work week or not, and I'm sure at least a few might worry when I say: I will not be celebrating on July 4th.
I don't hate our country, but even ignoring for a moment the murkier bits of history that don't seem to be teaching as much as it should?
We are not currently in celebratory times.

I remember this..:D

You're not doomscrolling, you're hopequesting. You need those tiny pieces of joy from seeing friends and strangers share their art, their good news, their wacky unique selves. We need light to live. We find it in each other.

It can be both.

Look either take your data offline or don't leave mean comments. Maybe both, both is good. Enjoy some cybersecurity chaos.

No conflict of interest here.

If you're in congress and you aren't publicly in favor of banning the trading of individual stocks by people in congress, get your head out of your fucking ass.

The saying, "Life is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap. The Cincinnati Enquirer, Ohio, February 21, 1947

No context of the day: I'm absolutely feeling this right now.
