Sorry I don't have a heavy social media presence anymore but this was one of the spoons I gave up to get other things done

One thing about me is that I fell asleep last night watching Boeings fly over us on FlightRadar on the Z Fold 6. I love being a plane girl.

Celebrity deaths that have affected me sincerely: - Robin Williams - Luke Perry - Shannen Doherty RIP y'all

Brenda forever. RIP, Shannen Doherty.

Being with coworkers in person to hug and chat this week was so lovely. Also, I'm so sorry I was a cesspool of sweat.

My plane got delayed for a mechanical issue. Fuck Boeing

Men and women who think their jobs matter in the grand scheme love to have loud meetings on the phone at the airport gate. Let everyone know how important they are. And I listen to everything.

Who is watching the Samsung event right now? www.wsj.com/tech/samsung...

朝の空で鮮やかな彩雲に出会いました。

If my Crocs melt in NYC I promise to blog it

Yes dude. I cancelled my subscription the minute I saw you in Bannon's war room. I'm not legitimizing that shit

Love to cancel a Substack sub when a journalist decides it's okay to platform the alt-right and pull a Glenn Greenwald. I know it's hard out here for us in capitalism, but who we choose to work with means something to the readers.

Me, inserting a random pop culture reference into everything I say, just to remind myself this is still my bit

Whoever in the Gen Z verse said Lena Dunham and Girls need to be revisited needs to STOP, PLEASE. I lived through that whole era, and she's awful and remains awful, and so is that show about selfish white girls.

I finally have Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard and macOS Sonoma dual-booting on my Mid-2010 Mac Mini! It took a lot of reboots, clearing PRAM, and messing around with OpenCore Legacy Patcher. I'll eventually write a blog post about setting this up.

It's been over 100 degrees for three days. It's so hot, there's no breeze at night to cool down the house. Despite all this, I am *so glad* we have air-conditioned servers in the desert to run our LLMs. I shall continue to generate imagery in this heat.

Good morning. I've been up for a few hours trying to find a knock-off I ❤️ABBA shirt that isn't $32 plus shipping from Europa

My new Gen Z-coded thing that I do is scope out live sets pre-pandemic on YouTube

Surfacing this again incase you missed it :)

Remember getting the demo CD that came with PC Gamer and playing the demos into the ground?

My shitty dad showed up at my door demanding admiration and I called the cops to scare him away AMA

Please stop reminding me about my dad I cut him off years ago for being mean to me
