Napper, foodie, and pet lover. Engineer in my alternate life.
I experienced someone getting turned down for a promotion right next to me. They even got a mini, mostly negative, performance review. In person. In public. Right next to me. Take that stuff to a private area.

It's pride month, or the month where major chains drag out rainbow-flavored items for 40x what they were made for while actively opposing LGBTQIA-friendly policies.

I wasn’t worried about it yesterday, but I’m a little concerned today. The evacuation zone for a chemical leak keeps growing. I was about 5 miles from the zone yesterday. I’m half that today. Time to pack. I heard the evac could last 2 weeks. I don’t even wanna know how big the explosion could be.

Tonight: Look west after sunset for the thin crescent moon between Venus and Jupiter (the two brightest star-like objects in the sky). Over the next two weeks the two planets approach each other and pass 1.5 degrees apart on June 9!

Dilemma for today. Code works in lab. Code fails on floor. Oddly narrowing it down to a hardware or OS issue. But how?!

I haven’t watched the Netflix series. I heard this fills some voids. Bernthal makes an incredible Punisher. Need more.

I don't want to fearmonger, but if this year will be a Super El Niño I hope that folks in the Eastern Pacific, aka the West Coast of the Amerikas from AK down to MEX prepare accordingly. It is you all who will feel the greatest hits in the U.S., though effects will be felt everywhere in the world.

Had half of a pastrami breakfast burrito this morning. Microwaved the other half for dinner. Do you have any idea how hot pickles get after they’re microwaved? Damn!

I hope at least 5 people are excited for Pinball prints on Wednesday! This painting has sort of been neglected during all the Artemis hype, but I love it. Whoever buys the original will get the mini pinball game I used as reference too 👾

Very cool example of atmospheric physics in motion -- save this for your students! Just north of the equator is Cyclone Sinlaku rotating counter clockwise. And just south of the equator is Maila, rotating clockwise. Coriolis effect! 🧪

Today in my animal personality class, we're discussing dog and cat domestication, looking at personality surveys, and having students try their hand at designing their own. One of the most fun courses I've designed and bonus, it and me are available for teaching from July onwards so uh, hire me

About 10 years ago, I learned that you’re not supposed to smash a cascarón (confetti egg) on someone’s head. You’re supposed to smash it in your hand over someone’s head. I’m pretty sure I had a concussion every Easter of my childhood. It was completely avoidable.

Never had a carbonated drink pop its top like this. Blew the tab off too. And it wasn’t shaken. Weird.

Warm weather doesn't mean safe water. As temperatures rise, rivers and lakes fed by snowmelt stay cold, and cold water can trigger shock within seconds. Before you get near the water: 🧡 Wear a life jacket ⚠ Avoid fast-moving water 🌊 Respect cold water conditions no matter the air temperature

When you call 911, a steady voice answers. That voice could be yours. The Communications Operator (911/EMS Dispatcher) exam is open right now. If you’re quick-thinking, detail-driven, and ready to be the first link in the response chain, this is your sign to apply!

Just noticed that a couple of my iPhone games are offering direct pay. I guess this is a way to circumvent the fees Apple takes from purchases.
