Finished listening to Project Hail Mary today. It was good. Also reading Katabasis as my "upstairs" book and Ther is no Anti-memetics department as my "downstairs" book. Now I need a new listens to book
have we had enough of the "little bit at a time" part? Who's ready for the "and then all at once" part?
Angry goose dot gif: and why are they shooting at ships motherfucker?
We seem to be creating a brave new 1984 world for ourselves. I’m sure the anthem will be wonderful.
Man I know it’s only two seasons, and I applaud that. But I want endless seasons of Andor.
It’s an “a few whiskeys will make it better” kind of day.
I would like for consequences being a thing again. And not just for the big stuff. seriously lets start small, work our way up.
no corp card at work? gotta go back home and get it.
Didn't get work done before the end of the week? Tough stay late.
No more spin. just consequences
Watched the first episode of young Sherlock.
Really about all I have to say. I watched it.
I picked up an XTEink 4 to read books on because it looked fun. it's not a kindle but it's very compact and reading on it does not suck. It also is handy for reading at work.
"Special Envoy for The Shield of the Americas". gah.....

I mean it was a terrible use of Fortunate Son, but also it's a good time to think about the message of Fortunate Son on this a day when the President basically just said: "meh, yeah I guess some people will die"
I think maybe Gemini is mising a market opportunity for ARG and DM services for people.
about halfway through Katabasis. I'm enjoying it. But I have to say that it seems to be an extremely R.F. Kuang R.F. Kuang book. If that makes sense.
Ok so they are going to sacrifice Noem here right. Which, she deserves and all, but also kinda fits the MO of the GOP to attack the woman.
y'know it would only take about four convincingly confused farmers with backhoes to take out the majority of the internet for like a week.

Repeated ever more urgently on every page
officially declaring this the Miley Cyrus of Mondays.
it came in like a wrecking ball.

No, not sorry
Havent yet. I read that it was based on Vineland. I read that in McLauglins class at ISU a looooong time ago.
I've started GR at least 6 times and I think that counts as reading it.
The dissonance of the world being a massive dumpster fire, and also work being a "contained dumpster fire" and across both everyone just basically shrugging it off as "whatcha gone do" and continuing on is really not healthy.
anyway may dissociate for a bit, then delete. Happy Monday
honestly, take two off. but also hopefully things are getting better.
What the etymology on “a squirter might get through”. I’m betting is horrible.
I have been following #1936diary and man I wish I could have simple entries like that instead of the nightmare fuel of the current day.

It's only a matter of time. This machine will keep needing to be fed.
Rabbit rabbit 🐰🐰
In a week when the dust settles and this goes further to shit it will of course all be someone else’s fault.
Because that’s all these assholes ever have to say when they fuck up.
Minor thing right now but “forward deployed engineer “. Is the one of the most stupid things I’ve ever heard.

Then fucking off to Tuscany for wine and charcuterie until I expire.
As I am often told "Welcome to the Real World" and "That's not how it is in the Real World". I have decided that henceforth I will continue to develop this ability to phase shift between pocket dimensions.
