Democrats are not a progressive party. They have reluctantly positioned themselves as such because the Republicans committed to the southern strategy when the Civil Rights Act was passed. For the majority of Dems to vote in favor of this resolution....for Hakeem Jeffries to vote for it...disgusting

Alan Tudyk has been typecast as the wisecracking robot.

I think @angiejones.tech would be proud.

I saw a statuette of Kylo Ren and it occurred to me that his real name is Ben Solo. At first I thought he was named after Ben Kenobi (the name Luke knew him as before he was whisked away to save the galaxy) but that didn’t make sense. Leia and Han always knew him as Obi Wan.

“This isn’t the America I know” Black People:

Actually this is all happening because a group of old white men who couldn't tell the difference between human beings and farming equipment, several of whom were child rapists, and all of whom were white supremacists, decided they wanted to make a country on land where other people already lived,

I'm joining Kedasha Kerr today for Rubber Duck Thursdays giving a quick overview of High Velocity Engineering. If you have some time join Kedasha and me www.linkedin.com/events/rubbe...

If you ever dare to feel like “I don’t belong here” Remember this picture was drawn by a famous artist for Marvel at the time. You’ve got this.

Tired of wasting my breath

And not one lie was detected

I was thinking I had a full schedule today but it turns out that it’s tomorrow. Today is going to be mellow and relaxing so I can go into tomorrow energized and focused. It’s important to learn your rhythm so you can perform your important tasks during your peaks and recharge during the valleys.

“He’s looking to trim off the fat like a juicy ribeye at saltgrass” is quite the metaphor. I’m going to resist the urge to watch more coverage of the competition and instead watch the twentieth video on building the perfect Dark Angels army

We talking about background shows? I love running a marathon of How it’s Made while I’m doing work

Also isn’t it strange how the narrative isn’t “crazed lone wolf” but “political assassination”. Keep it 100.

“How could you?” There’s a difference between relishing in someone’s death and not feeling any grief. It’s the latter for me. When someone with a huge platform argues that by default Black people are inferior to them, and advocates for ANYONE to be treated less than human I won’t mourn them at all

The people who are loud about prayers for Charlie Kirk but silent about kids being shot in schools and elected officials being assassinated: we see you. It’s wild calling someone who spewed hatred being killed a “political assassination” when a LITERAL politician being killed…

Honestly I’m not doing well. After being let go at Microsoft, I wasn’t concerned very much because I’m used to being able to get a role quickly. But a hard no from one opportunity and silence from a few others has my confidence a little shaken. I think my best move is to take a bet on me.

I know when you say mental health you mean general psychology. But I want to focus on dementia. I think that is my largest fear: literally losing my mind because for me it has been the strongest asset I’ve had in life. So mental health is my highest priority.

I so wanted a SilverhawksxThundercats crossover as a kid.

That’s been their tactics since I could remember. “Political Correctness” was subject to reductio ad absurdium “instead of poor people we should say temporarily unfinanced”. They made affirmative action about quotas and “lowering standards” Today it’s “woke agenda” and DEI. Same played out tactics

Github Copilot PR reviews now include "atta boy" comments

He missed a good punchline because Monica was in Friends

Does anyone else equate ICE to the minutemen in "It Couldn't Happen Here"?

The only thing surprising me about this is that people aren't buying them and taking selfies with her...but then again it is Harlem and my people DGAF about running into celebrities. And all the tourists are in central Manhattan. Brandy did an entire performance on the E line and no one cared.

WTF Amazon? If I have a passkey that's automatically MFA...why do you want me to enter an OTP key after I log in with my passkey. #BeBest.

Okay, I'm loving these radio-style productions Audible does where they take a book and have it enacted by a full cast with sound effects and everything. Now they're doing original stories. I'm about to check out The Prophecy, featuring Kerry Washington and Laurence Fishburne.

Even if being trans or gay was a choice who cares. You know what else is a choice? Being a bigoted douchebag. So maybe they should STFU and mind their own business.

I grew up in Chicago in the 80s

Where are all the 2nd Amendment people now?

Those in power will perform violent acts to retain their power. It’s only going to get worse before it gets better.

For my birthday weekend my wife took me to see The Empire Strips Back (a Star Wars themed burlesque show), a couples massage, then five rows back from the court at the Storm game. And dinner at a churrascaria. It was a lot of fun.

ET I think my kindergarten class saw it as a field trip.

Technically it would be Voltron or Robotech which were both adopted for US from existing anime. But the first anime I remember watching as such was Vampire Hunter D

Like truly had no impact on my day whatsoever. I don’t even remember how I found out but I was like good for them and went on with my day didn’t even google for details.

Farewell to summer getaway with the fam at Seaside Oregon

“The odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million.” At $2 per ticket that’s a guaranteed profit if you just buy every ticket combination

Maybe it’s a weekend at Bernie’s situation. I mean who could tell the difference? Also how did that movie get a sequel. The eighties were weird yall.

How many states are required to call a constitutional convention? How many states are required to ratify an amendment? How many states are controlled by republican government? Might want to look all of that up. Because all it takes is an amendment to make unlimited presidential terms a thing.

People look at the state of AI today and say it’s a big buzz word. What they’re not looking at is what the state of AI will be when quantum computing becomes mainstream. Microsoft continue investment in both fields, put them in position to be uniquely capable of capitalizing on their convergence

I believe it was asteroids on the Atari 2600 used to flip the score (get more points than the game could record so it started over at 0) on the regular. It was either that or Mrs PacMan in the arcade.

I’ll push for a ban on Parker Brother/Milton Bradley games. No Yahtzee for family game night. Let’s play Marvel Dice Throne instead. Every kid should have a favorite worker placement game by the time they’re eight. Dominion instead of Uno (or Star realms)

Listening to Creep with the youngest. And I’m like “wait I probably don’t wanna know but look up when it was released” Nineteen fucking ninety two yall.

Very young me Run DMC, Fat Boys, LL Cool J, Kool Moe Dee

If you keep repeating it eventually you might just be right.

I know a lot of people had issues with Tenet and maybe it's because my brain is wired differently but I understood everything that was going on as it happened. And knew who it was they encountered the first time they went in the airport.

Game of Thrones ended 6 years ago, but people still insist on arguing that Dany's turn to heel was so "unexpected." She had been committing atrocities and leaving a trail of blood across her journey back to the seven kingdoms. People just overlooked it because they sympathized with her.

😆 “the rebel flag is southern heritage it’s not racist” But somehow a hanging klansman is.
