San Jose Sharks too. I have a San Jose Sharks hat. I don’t know why. I grew up a Blues fan.

I think about when I played Sims and would delete the bathroom and door from my Sim’s house and watch him suffer. I feel like I am getting karmic payback these days. I’m sorry Sim dude, I didn’t think of you as anything but interesting binary data and was amused by your suffering. I have a lot more sympathy and empathy for you these days.

In English, my lips touch when I make the “f” sound at the start of four. I am also pretty sure they touch for one.

"Is already "

Currently, that Tom Petty song with the lyric about “the waiting is the hardest part” seems appropriate.

Printing a hard copy seems to make mistakes materialize out of nowhere for me.

Sounds like someone is getting sanctioned and maybe disbarred.

As a fifty something, I still have 40 years left. I’ll die way before I get there. Can’t risk running out of money in retirement. Maybe someday I will get a diagnosis that lets me retire for a few months. Straight into palliative care…

The better methods will never happen completely. Even in the midst of the abhorrent east African famines of the 1980s, people were still reproducing. The billionaires want us to breed more wage slaves until the petri dish is full and no more resources exist. Our natural inclination to kill each other just needs some more effective fuel.

The outcome is inevitable, I would just like to accelerate it and try to leave something for the nonhumans.

Their database should track microplastics exposure, pfas exposure, lead exposure, and a whole bunch of other pollution exposure. Bet it won’t, because a correlation with those is not a desirable outcome.

I used to be opposed to working in the defense industry. Based on my experiences, I have reached the conclusion that the only ethical outcome is the extinction of humanity before we make this planet uninhabitable for all other life. The sooner the better. Maybe raccoons won’t have billionaires, fascists, microplastics, etc. We should give them that chance. That’s why I work for a defense contractor now.

So we’re winning? I’d still love for him to meet his Luigi. Is that enough hate to get you to quit before you do any more damage? I can go more extreme if it isn’t.

I bet you didn’t casually leave it in your unattended bag. I paid $5k cash for a car once and planned that payment out carefully to minimize the time I had the money in hand.

Who goes out with $3k cash? Even if you are so wealthy that the quantity is like $20 for normal people, that’s enough to make you a target if someone discovers you have it.

My coworkers, especially the younger ones, are surprised when they watch me work in vi. Lots of “how did you do that so fast?”

Now this will be a GOOD Friday.

Vim. I used to use emacs in the mid-90s, but I just found that vi was more universally supported. At this point, I am too old and stubborn to learn anything else. I am really efficient in vim.

Would be hilarious if they discovered the rising rates were due to microplastics in the environment. Deregulation will surely fix that…

The price was going to be $499. A 145% tariff makes the price $1222.55. A 100% tariff would double the price and this is more than 100%.

Looks like pretty steep inflation fueled by tariffs. I wonder how the Denies Reality Party (DeRPs) will spin it.

As a male Gen-X with short hair my whole life I am only dimly aware of what my female compatriots were up to with these. I admired the results for sure.
