Lesbian =/= attraction to femininity. It'd be marvelous to go one day without using bad inclusion* to imply butches are men.

* I'm attracted to trans women cause they're women, not cause they're fem. Lesbian spaces are for nonbinary people who are lesbians, not nonbinary people who look fem enough.

If you take the average ultramarathon times of top 100 men and top 100 women, considering distances over 195 miles, the average time of women is *lower* than the average time of men.

Sometimes men win. Sometimes women.

The fastest women ultramarathon runners can beat *horses* over those distances.

Hmmm. I've been told this makes it more likely that our future robot overlords will be more kind to me. So not into the deepest mines, but only the medium deep ones. Yaaaaaay! πŸ€–

I'm staying at a place with an Alexa, connected to most of the lights and such. I'm still surprised she listens to me, and keep saying please and thank you πŸ˜‚

We dm-ed about Elsie on Instagram (no access to the phone with that account atm). Did she decide to join you? And does she have a schedule? ❀️

I HAVE THIS TOO!

Very what the fuck indeed. I used to have it in lectures at uni, and would sort of doze, but also still process info sometimes.

You have no idea how validating it is to read this. Thank you

Exclusive: Google is indexing ChatGPT conversations, potentially exposing sensitive user data Thousands of shared ChatGPT chats are now appearing in Google search results.

Well this is bad. Google is indexing ChatGPT conversations exposing sensitive user data

I tried a few quick searches. I found someone's chat where I can see their api key

I found some building their resume. Their name, email and phone numbers are exposed.

Bonus tip: maybe see if you can place the tasks on the Eisenhower Matrix of urgent/not urgent and important/not important. Things that are urgent + important should be worked on 1st. Not urgent not important can be deleted. Not important and urgent might be delegated. Important, not urgent: schedule

And: good luck! You can do it! The list most likely did not materialize in one day, so it's not weird it'll take you longer to work through it ❀️

Make a sub-list for today.

Go pomodoro! (set a timer on 25 minutes and just DO THE THING until it goes off. Short break, and AGAIN!)

OK! Sometimes it helps to go through the list and create a "don't list". What are you NOT going to do? (cause 99 is just too much).

Writing down what your have done (which i call a "ta da"-list) including stuff that wasn't on the todo-list makes extra visible what you did.

JA!

Nu bleken de nummers van mn moeder en mn vriend de eerste 5 cijfers te delen, dus dat scheelde. En bij allebei kon ik daarna iets met jaartallen.
Het andere nummer was een herhalende reeks van 3 cijfers. De laatste kon ik ook iets met een ritme van maken (en begint met het ntwoord op alles: 42)
