The woman is always like a mega genius engineer AND doctor AND martial artist

If I time traveled I could… not invent those things

My fav shows are now Chinese microdramas where the plot is like a modern woman ends up in the Tang Dynasty or something and invents like guns and washing machines

I do a lot of boring social media graphics which is something you'd think AI might actually be useful for, but Canva's AI is hilariously bad

For those that don't know, a Ramos Gin Fizz is a really good cocktail that involves A LOT of VIGOROUS shaking.

Empathy is carefully trying to determine if the bartender would be pressed before you order that Ramos Gin Fizz.

The cta survey

I’m reading Frankenstein and Dr. Frankenstein is so relatable! Hyperfocusing for months of something that turns out to be a grotesque disaster and then having a nervous breakdown? We’ve all been there, at least I have.

Hot air balloon at the end of a two lane road

PFF!

I've been told by a reliable authority that I like "candy for sickos."

Many resources are really cryptic to access which would especially suck if English isn’t your first language. Probably 90% weren’t accessible without a car.

The stray kitten saga was a sober realization that a lot of the resources for low cost neuter/spay are still too hard to access. Like I’m not sure how someone without a lot of time is supposed to do this.

We found his owners! He was so cute, sorry to see him go but my cats are happy

Luckily we found his owners!

He’s very cute but 3 cats in a 2 bedroom apartment is a lot

I found a stray kitten I’d like to find a home for and every time I post a pic people are like “it’s your cat now” smh

Someone I know was like “AI is great for bill splitting” and he sent ChatGPT our bill and told it to split it. ChatGPT returned an AI generated image of people splitting a bill…

I think the ghosts are more accurate at least they don’t make up sources

This must be what it was like to live in the heyday of seances except instead of “oh the ghost in my house told me” it’s “ChatGPT told me”

I’m not sure what data I accidentally shared that caused this glorious instacart ad that features jackfruit, ???? pepsi, a tripe dog toy (I don’t have a dog), and ube queso ice cream (ok this sounds good and my Filipino friend said it’s legit)

Llm coding agents are like if you had a real junior developer except all the parts where its unable to meaningfully learn and there are no consequences for it making stuff up or deleting tests to make them pass

I’ll never eat tuna, chicken, or egg salad. They just seem like dishes designed to hide something suspicious.

Like you mean my cashier didn’t genuinely think my purchase of “teeny tiny candy bars” doesn’t mean I have exceptional taste?????

Ever since my bf told me that Trader Joe’s employees are REQUIRED to compliment at least one of your purchases, I’ve lost all faith in humanity

Let me just never log in to LinkedIn again

The most important part of every project is spending at least 8 hours looking at fonts not because you need to but because you think they are neat

How can something so small be that heavy

It’s funny how the whole “every resume bullet point needs a number” thing has become so common even though we all know it forces made up numbers like “lmproved coding by 55%”

I bring an i hate AI vibe to any startup event that tech business people don’t really like

I haven’t seen too many people talk about this but the shift between 2020 DEI programs and support of BLM and marginalized communities at large to now seeing tech moguls blatantly support Trump at worst or say nothing at all at best has given me whiplash and put a bad taste in my mouth
