I like how in 2026 a common security paradigm is writing a strongly worded letter to the guy in your computer

Had a meeting with the CTO today that I was... very over-prepared for. This guy has been promoted out of his depth and doesn't even realize it.

No, you do not need and are not getting your own personal OAuth2 secret for PRODUCTION APIs, you idiot.

A digital drawing of a rockruff from pokemon. It has a blank expression, and is wearing a harmony scarf from pokemon mystery dungeon as a wristband. There is a bubble of text that says "I hate bein' a human. I wanna be a wolf. Only emotions a wolfs got is chomp and awoo."

An extraordinary paragraph. buff.ly/uH5ykhX
The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they're the ones who are alone. In Minnesota, all of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once. Minnesotans, not the armed thugs of ICE and the Border Patrol, are brave. Minnesotans have shown that their community is socially cohesivebecause of its diversity and not in spite of it. Minnesotans have found and loved one another in a world atomized by social media, where empty men have tried to fill their lonely soul with lies about their own inherent superiority. Minnesotans have preserved everything worthwhile about "Western civilization," while armed brutes try to tear it down by force.

This is so spot on

Cartoon: If anyone in Chicago knows this school or an anti ICE organization affiliated with them I would be happy to donate this art. I only wish I could have fully Sal Buscema-ed that punch :)

In times of great stress, it helps to sublimate bad feelings to other areas, like reconnecting with family. (Subtext: Be not concerned, there is no self-harm imminent here). I am actually pretty lucky to have the family I do.

If you stay on X I’m gonna assume you’re cool with Nazis and pedophiles.

That is all.

you cannot Own someone on X in 2026. if you are using X in 2026 you are being Owned. nothing you can say will outweigh the shame of being a member of the world's largest incel group chat. if you run out of a bathroom covered in shit holding a turd no one will think the turd is the uncool one

I hate mysteriously titled meeting invites. A 1:1 meeting with the "Chief Commercial Officer", which I don't even know what that job is. Never spoken to him before. Meeting just titled "Tech Leadership Discussion".

Am I getting promoted or just having more work added to my plate?

Well @arcticfoxjay.bsky.social it's done so you can stop guessing. :) It comes apart and the inside is all furnished, which is what you were seeing before.

Need to get it a cabin boy figure...

I think my NY resolutions (which seem like a quaint idea but still) are to:

1. Travel more. I have a remote work job, WTF, why not? Got a couch? I might hit you up.

2. Commission more art. You can't take it with you, so why not be a little hedonistic and also feed a poor artist?

Technically I worked on Friday, but... come on, right?

I did clean the garage workbenches off (a pretty huge task) and got a lot of other things off my to-do list.

Funny thought - have I already had, am in the middle of, or should plan for a midlife crisis? What would I even do differently?

The Year I Lost Faith in Government—and Felt Better Almost Immediately There’s something deeply calming about no longer pretending this is fine.

"If you say you've lost faith in the government, my response is no longer alarm, it's respect. Because it shows:
- You were paying attention
- You noticed the pattern
- You refused to confuse authority with legitimacy"

I don't know who this is originally from but it encapsulates an artist's job better than whatever MAGA thinks that is

I genuinely don't know if this is a "Minnesotan" thing or an "old guy of a certain age" thing but in case it's Minnesotan and people need an anger translator: this guy is so angry he could just about set something on fire with his mind.
