Ah yes, my most favorite way to absolutely fuck up my sleep schedule and morning routine: A 6am meeting when it’s still pitch black outside. On the brightside (no pun intended) I guess that since I’m starting at 6am, I’ll finish work on this Friday at ~2pm lol.

I remember the first time I felt levels of connection, safety and trust, individuality and confidence, and pure identity so overwhelmingly pervasive in a space. It’s an immersion and interconnectedness that I’ve come to take for granted. I’m having PCD for the first time in multiple years

God is a DJ, Life is a dancefloor, Love is the rhythm, You are the music.

I’m like 93% sure this training video I’m required to watch was made with AI. Voiceover sounds AI and way too high quality for a live recording with the video feed of this narrator guy. His movements are also extremely unnatural and often completely irrelevant to the words he’s sync’d with.

Maybe I should update my social media bios to include a self-proclamation that I am an Unc lmao. My knees are still relatively functional enough to not be a dad, but I am still out of touch enough that I can be an Unc xD

Discontinue use at the what now??? This is in the California Hilton hotel I’m staying in lmao. How does this happen? To a Hilton of all places! This sign is posted in here twice. Incredible.

This was very thoroughly a mistake, future me is very disappointed in past me for deciding to eat all of this.

Spent 40 minutes debugging to find some lines that kept concatenating two attributes that shouldn’t be merged. Issues with mapping arise later on because the mapping looked for only one of the attributes, not both attributes concatenated together. Basically Plastic vs Plastic 1. What a dumb issue

I am so tired and sleepy with the heaviest of brain fog, and feeling like 40% functional right now jesus christ. The afternoon slump is so incredibly strong today, I think I’m gonna go for a walk

I debugged this 20k+ line monster algorithm and determined there are two solutions we can choose: 1) A five line solution that drops ~1.1% of usable data but fully fixes the problem 2) comb through all 20k+ lines to implement fixes in at least 3 different places. Hmmmmmmmmm. Tough choice >.>

One of our clients is having some notably bad problems lately, and it is thoroughly hilarious that one of the most plausible reasons/explanations for their issues is specifically cow and sheep farts and burps.

Good lord I’m realizing just how fricken wound up and stressed I’ve been these past 5 weeks. It’ll lighten up very soon, but god damn I really need to be more cognizant of how the stress affects my social interactions. Need to slow tf down and just breathe more. There’s no hurry.

actually i'm going to be even more unreasonable. i'm a millenial. i'm nearly 40. the first 20 years of my working life included at least 2 economic crisis and there's another coming and i'm not going to entertain a single fucking candidate that doesn't explain how people my age afford retirement.

Got a big dose reminder today that I need to focus on myself far before I can think about or consider many other things. Gotta have my shit together, as I like to say, and my shit currently is in 4 different places right now

I see I’m still very susceptible to wicked mood swings when thinking about certain things I thought were in my past. Clearly I’ve still much to grow accustomed. Maybe it won’t matter in the future. Hmmmm. Tired gym reflections I suppose, I think I’m gonna have some comfort dinner for tonight

I‘m sitting in this meeting as the lead analyst who spent the last 3 months on this project, accompanied by no less than 3 of my company’s directors, for one of our top 5 main customers. This is a level of anxiety and nervousness I haven’t felt in fricken years. So much at stake here jfc

in parallel to the discussion on the actual topic of focus, there are a few comments talking about X and how shit that site has become. to put it simply, this kind of overt racism and xenophobia is far, far less prevalent on bluesky.

I am in the biggest mood to make some dancefloor dnb but nope, i have to go to bed for work in the morning

There is a huge amount of similarity between the Cluely sensation (and me seeing their announcement post about their fursuit mascot, no less than 4 times in different group chats) and the Zweitesich fursuit company. The use of guerrilla marketing tactics is incredibly effective on multiple levels

I was wondering why I kept crashing my compute node when I wrote code to iterate over 18,000 rows. Turns out, I am off by a whole order of magnitude, and in fact have 181,000 rows. No wonder it kept crashing, all cuz I can’t read a 6 digit number xD Ez fix though, gonna piecemeal this function

I was reminded of what I was doing this day two years ago and holy shit the gravity of the last two years of ups, downs, insanity, moves, and new beginnings all just hit me like a palate of bricks. Iiiiiii am gonna go to bed really early tonight. I’ve no mental capacity to deal with all this rn lol

Having the largest chuckle seeing my furry avatar popping up in every comment I make on this manuscript we're submitting to a journal. I last did this technical writing when seeking my PhD. Now that I have my PhD, I feel so freely empowered to be furry trash in professional circles and contexts xD

i find it absolutely hilarious that, reading through some of my papers written in undergrad, I remember how hard I was flexing to my english professors by dropping a rhetorical precis in every analytical piece of writing I could. It sounds so pretentious if you know what it is,

I've never been particularly good at cleaning out my storage folders and drives. I'm going through and finally deleting grad school stuff. Notes, books, pdf files, my huge database of papers for research, code and old drafts of manuscripts. Man, I did all this? Wow

I just subscribed to a youtube channel called "Classic Miles Tails Prower". I have absolutely no interest in the Sonic franchise whatsoever. Entire reason for the subscription is because this account uploaded many Tiesto's Club Life episodes and I'm craving some early 2010's progressive house xD

i love that i've made so much hardstyle that I now know by full intuition that the secret to making sick ass synth sounds, is just asstons of distortion. Distortion units can turn the most mundane muddy muffled misfit disappointments into the most squelchy layered, PHAT shit it'll blow your mind

for the love of fucking christ and all that is holy. Duolingo please stop giving me vocab “practice” that are the simplest, most brain dead words. I am level 23 in my Russian practice right now, these words are shown at level 1-2. Wasting my fucking time.

Such a wild family. Love being a part of such an amazing group. Too many people to tag :) Suits by @wilddogworks.com Photo by @carohoss.bsky.social

I'd like to announce that I'm making a career change. I am taking my photography skills into real estate photography upon the hilarious realization that my fursuit photo style is exactly the same as that used in real estate photos. STUPID bright, maximum HDR, flashbang anyone not on dark mode lmao

Happy fursuit Friday from our family to you ☺️🎀✨️ @glitzyfox.bsky.social Studios🎀 📸 @carohoss.bsky.social

A collaborator wants feedback on a manuscript that cited one of my first-author papers back in 2022. I straight up said “2022? I don’t remember publishing a paper in 2022??” Turns out, I somehow managed to completely forget that I indeed spent 8+ months writing and publishing a paper in 2022.

i heard this was really good :D The pride of chicago!!

EXCUSE ME?! EXPECTED WAIT TIME OF 11 HOURS AND 43 MINUTES???? DELTA ARE YOU OKAY???

7 am work meeting on ms teams, you bet your ass I’m in the call eating my breakfast in a t shirt and underwear

I cannot believe I accidentally managed to drive right into Apple Park while going to sushi for dinner tonight

A FURRY?! AT MY CS2 BLAST MAJOR IN AUSTIN TEXAS? who are youuuuuu

On the topic of video games being rushed out the door without being polished or seemingly sufficient oversight, I am shocked that payday 3 still has such egregious problems. 1) cloaker ai completely shits the bed when you vault onto any height surface, and their path finding is still hot garbage

I would really appreciate companies being even a picogram more focused on fixing user experience and existing performance issues, rather than fixating so heavily on absolute fringe case uses of gen AI. Apple speech to text has devolved to where every message requires at least two edits/fixes.

The last few hours of work today were really late because of a outage from one of our cloud providers. Apparently this outage is large enough that it also happened to impact babyfurcon to the point that they posted an announcement of the outage on their systems lmao.

I guess today’s the day I realize that backups of my code haven’t been saving, at all. Just lost 6+ hours worth of coding work and I have no idea what is the most recent step of work this thing saved. Great. Absolutely fantastic.

I can’t believe it, today’s World Pride and there’s no one in my gym this morning. Where are all the gays? Why’s no one down to get shredded and feel the pump to show off during the parades?

Old Rag Mountain wasn’t ready for us 😤⛰️ @carohoss.bsky.social @murrtin.wtf @whiskerscat.bsky.social @daz-vega.bsky.social

I must confess, I’m getting unhealthy amounts of dopamine fixes from buying groceries that are stupid cheap on sale. Just picked up 2 pints of blueberries and 4 regular sized tubs of ice cream (Tillamook too!!) for under $20, even after tax! These 6 items in total are regular price $44.50.

Watched a video on 4 major reasons why a company would do return to office. Nearly all of the comments read like the author straight up didn’t watch the video, because they post a claim (unsubstantiated without evidence ofc) that is a paraphrase of one of those 4 reasons.

Have you supported your local degenerates today?

This red panda made me come to his apartment, gave me pizza, and made me watch Back to the Outback. Solid 6/10 for the movie. Jokes were 10/10 crafty and clever but the plot was “appropriate for people whose age is less than their shoe size”

Doing photo edits for FWA and my editing for these is so flat and accurate to real life, I actually feel a bit out of place/unnatural in this style since I'm so used to much heavier-handed edits lol
