Had a product owner tell me that I should shadow our engineers and work in our client reactive engineering team, so that was cool.

Okay, but she DOESN’T want to send “her sons and daughters” into war. She wants to send YOUR sons and daughters into war.

Our in-office week party today was karaoke and everyone at work knows I can sing but has never actually heard me sing. So I had to pull out The Wizard and I and let them KNOWWWWW.

Also, let’s talk about how I just CANNOT SLEEP ANYMORE? What is going on?

Good morning only to the Canelé at Frechette Bakery on Church Street. Fuck me ALL the way up.

It is crazy how many people are okay with their representatives voting on bills based on their representative’s ideologies instead of the ones that are in best interest of the majority of their constituency. Like John Fetterman is just straight up not properly representing his district anymore-

Darlene Mitchell has that smile that you can only get when you have a big swingin’ uncut dick

On their lawns with torches and pitchforks NOWWWWWWWW

As always, I have worked up the in-office time at work this week to be much more high pressure and high anxiety than it has ended up being. I’m still anxious (because I keep thinking that my colleagues are mad at me for things they’ve never said to me) but I’m having a nice time anyway.

and he would have got away with it too if it wasn't for those meddling kids

So is MTA just not accepting Apple Pay at all this week…?

At this point I think our CS team at work is literally 50% queer and I really love that about my job. Helping queer people from the theater world understand tech is so rewarding.

Noticed that I left my wallet in my car approximately ten milliseconds after my train started leaving the station so I had to get off at the next stop, wait for the next train, take it BACK, get my wallet, and get on the next hour’s train. So now I’ll be getting into my hotel at 11:30 PM. 🫠

Didn’t even know Benson Boone was a singer but here I am listening to that little fruit shriek Mr. Electric Blue in my car.

Full daylight at 5:30 PM. My brain is exploding.

Why yes, I COULD be packing everything else for my work trip while I wait for clothes to dry. ORRRRR I could watch YouTube and nap and then panic pack everything so my brain thinks I’m being chased through the woods.

It’s very weird to me that hospitals have CEOs. That’s weird, right?

Hell of a night to not be able to fall asleep until 4:00 AM that turned into 5:00 AM. 🫠

It’s as if video game composers all suddenly learned about cellos in the last five years.

Iman is seventy and has skin better than I do and I’m younger than half her age

I bought three baskets for my bathroom and one wooden serving platter that I’m using as a tray in my kitchen and when I tell you this place feels ten times better with some of my stuff corralled into baskets and trays.

Surely more training would fix this.

Going home decor shopping (again) let’s see if I actually get anythiiiiing.

Of all the filth concepts to make it to the finale in Dragula, Biqtch Puddin mopping the stage and drinking the mop water is still the hardest to watch by a HUGE margin.

Low sunlight days end after today 😩👏🏻

And the music is musically interesting. The harmonic language is SO satisfying to listen to because their influences aren't bluntly stuck in the western tradition.

System of a Down music has so much drag number potential.

Gag is just tea leaving the body

I spent my day handling a client escalation that originally led to their executive director ragequitting the call, and when I tell you I never want to do work for people LESS than when it’s in response to a professional acting like a child…

Disasterina now, Disasterina later, Disasterina forever

Going to need several drinks and maybe a man in my bed after work every day next week while I’m in New York City. Serious inquiries only.

Anyways.

Just saw a video of a guy that built an app that runs in the background on your computer and when you gently slap it like you’d slap someone’s ass, the computer moans. Engineers are thinking in ways we never knew we could think.

Boss approved my burnout PTO without me even needing to tell her that I’m taking it for burnout recovery. Whether this is great because she doesn’t care why I’m using it or is not-great because she can tell why I’m using it without having to say a word about it is anyone’s guess.

It’s just the littlest bit weird to have a (soon to be former) head of DHS with a ton of fillers. Glam out all you want, diva. Have your Restylane, I live for it. But the head of DHS snatching people off the street while she fills her face with Juvederm? Very dystopian.

PUT. HER. IN. FUCKING. JAIL.

It’s that thing where straight people feel the need to qualify major parts of our lives as Gay first and life circumstance second and it’s really irritating. Like I’m going to start calling people Straunt or Struncle.

I’ve learned that the only way I can get some of my meds refilled on time is to call out how long it takes them to refill my meds when I call them to ask for a refill. 🙃

They’re not bowling on behalf of soup?

If there is an afterlife, my insane Irish Catholic Long Island chain smoking grandmother is looking down at all these stupid ass kids vaping their faces off in school and laughing while she lights a cigarette with the butt of her last cigarette.

My mom’s father worked at Grumman and was part of the team that saved the people on Apollo 13. My mom’s mother was a Long Island Irish catholic woman who practically just smoked for a living.

Debra Messing's about to start hitting people with her car.

I don’t think people understand that working outside of your eight hours of work is actually hurting you and everyone else at work, because your management now starts to expect everyone to be able to do nine or ten hours worth of work in eight hours, and then you’re forced to work past your hours.

“Chief Music Officer” is not a real role at a company by the way lmfao that’s not how any music-centric industry functions.

Nobody tells you about the growing urgency to regularly trim your eyebrows as you get older and I wish someone would have told me.

Help I’m watching Tatianna’s Same Parts talent number on loop.

Why is the word “Hummus” a notification sound option in Slack…?

Getting old is weird. My mother just found out today that she doesn't have vision in her left eye and only noticed when she was at the eye doctor and they tried to test the vision in either eye.
