There are a staggering number of issues on which the majority of Americans agree. Democrats should just start going down the list.

At a Weezer concert. We’re allowed water bottles, but no caps because “you might throw them.” ???

This is actually quite important. Caveat: Privilege matters, @scalzi.com and are white dudes, etc. But my parents taught me I could always make my way with direct labor if I kept my needs small and as a consequence, I have walked away from many an opportunity that was against my moral compass.

I would wear that.

We’re going to be stuck with a lot of this kind of nonsense. I think one of the joyful parts of unwinding this mess will be vindictive kindness, like making it a free public course for all to enjoy.

Red states build housing faster than blue states. So they can offer cheaper rent. If we want to liberalize America, we need to make living in liberal America cheaper.

The thing about the “$200 to boo El-Sayed” revelation is just how little money it actually is. You can turn passive beliefs into active behaviors for cheap.

At a panel of AI experts…nope. Just nope.

How does this thing not have mandatory AI labeling yet?

What do you wish the men in your life would say about the rapes at Cornell?

I hope for a future where having been employed at certain companies after a cutoff date makes you unemployable in tech. Flock and Palantir, as easy examples.

I have never wanted to run for office; it isn’t particularly in my skill set. But it frequently feels like even someone not terribly good at it could do better than many current folks simply by not being corrupt AF.

Current desire: @aoc.bsky.social / @govpritzker.illinois.gov ticket. He’d make a great VP and could focus on anti-corruption, while she focuses on harmonizing domestic and foreign policy needs from the Oval Office.

C-level to median comp remains a very, very good metric for how shitty a company is.

The decision to binge Ted Lasso only while in Sri Lanka for work, far away from wife and son, may not be my finest.

Pointing out now: nine months later, Trump Death Babies.

Step 1 of my surgery today: sign four forms. Can I read the forms? No, because they are electronic and there is no screen. And they don’t show up in the app until after I sign them. They can print them down the hall as an “accommodation”.

Unless you want me to start putting “virtual” in front of your job title if you’re remote, stop calling them “virtual assistants”. The job is the job is the job, wherever it gets done.

I want to know the etymology of why British people say "bye" six times before they leave the call. It has a very particular pattern: "bye, bye bye, bye bye bye, *hangup*"

have ten titles on hold in Libby, with wait times varying between “Available Soon” to ~14 weeks. My social media use skyrockets when I can’t read a book on my phone. If you don’t want more rants from me, please fund the library system.

Low confidence.

Do not call it CEO parenting. I’ve been a C for a long time, often running huge teams (currently over 500 folks) and I still do all sorts of mundane tasks, both at work and at home. Y’all can parent however you want but don’t try to pretend ignoring your kids is reflective of good leadership.
