I'm still working my way through this. there is so much to consider from the dev POV presented here that we don't always think about on AI, and obviously software developers/engineers are not a monolith.

this weekend will probably be the reset because they don't nap on weekends and they do at daycare

they went from falling asleep by 8 or 8:15 on a 7:30 bedtime to 9:15 on a 7:45 bedtime, which tracks but ugh

i'ma need to catch up after tonight, the LIB reunion last night was too much drama after another night of time-change affected kiddo bedtime (fuck time changes forever and ever, standard time for everyone)

Can confirm. Sideways rain is the worst save for freezing sideways rain

Favorite opening track? "Head Like a Hole", Nine Inch Nails.

If cats aren't communist, then why do they all say mao

Ah yes the Independent instead of Democrat

I am not sure that would have mattered as much if he’d nailed the actual politics

Which one? Being Jewish? Sujperdelegate influence? Media opposition?

Yeah Apple Music made it easy with three months free and a good interface with Sonos; it’s just sitting down with my wife’s profile and moving things over. Gotta do it this week before the Spotify billing cycle hits.

I’m almost off Spotify but I need to get time to move my wife’s playlists over. I think half the inertia is moving family over for most

In West Seattle, that place is called Puerto Vallarta and is exactly what you expect it to be, which in my house is a couple of giant chile rellenos for my wife and a ginormous wet burrito filled with steak, rice and beans. And you get a giant scoop of guac and sour cream with it.

to borrow from Blade, some motherfuckers always wanna ice skate uphill, and he is one of them.

class-only socialism can never address the USA's particular issues bedcause it cannot meaningfully deal with cishet white men and women being okay with the system as is so long as everyone else has it worse than they do.

Probably not and at the same time, being capable of evolution on certain views can be a good thing.

Yep. If Bernie Sanders actually understood that race in the USA is a bigger matter than class, he'd have been a Democratic nominee for president in '16 or '20.

Anfield on Sunday makes me hope for the Dr. Tottenham effect but LFC can't stop stepping on their own dicks (see Wolves yesterday.) Stoppable force vs. movable object of a fixture.

β€œIndianapolis Sex Hotel” is 100% a Midwestern emo band name

going from Noem to Mullin is just upping the ante. let's take the same noxiously racist BS recipe and add a few tablespoons of faux-masculine contempt and belligerence.

- I hope Jordan actually steps up and adjusts his life accordingly to Amber's.
- Vic & Christine's entire arc feels tacked on for the happy ending.
- Devonta, go to therapy. Learn to be direct and kind. No one says "we'll be in touch" to someone you love and respect. #LIB

- it feels like Ashley gave Alex the speech she wanted to give to the ex who cheated on her
- Mike, thank you for saying no in the end, but you shouldn't have proposed to Emma to begin with.
- Amber's brother was right but that wasn't the time to say it. #LIB

#LIB thoughts:
- Brittany, he's just not that into you and I hope to see that you see it at the reunion.
- Alex just rolled out of bed and put on the tux to get read for filth.
- Ashley was right to give the "Deepti to Shake" riot act, but she could have done it LONG before the altar.

feels like a minute since i have pointed out that donald trump has pardoned more child sex offenders than every other president of the united states combined

on this team and gonna keep saying: behind the extremely thin veneer of concern and responsibility of anti-Bluesky takes is the desperate attempt to portray something that is obviously their problem as though it were our problem. nice try. go with God, have a blessed day
