Since having a kid, my brain is like "hey remember those movies and shows that haunted you? Well....they didn't haunt you enough, let's replay them on a loop."

AI code isn't breaking bsky. Merging insufficiently tested or otherwise broken code is breaking bsky AI code can be good or bad, but it's the person who approves it that is at fault. AI code's biggest danger is in humans ceding authority to it and giving trust they'd never give a person

Challenge: cast a Gertrude who is actually old enough to be Hamlet's mother.

IF he switches parties? Baby, the Scooby gang snatched his mask off. He was always a villain in disguise

So young to be a doctor

People who have flown with 12-18 month olds - recommendations on checking the car seat vs. having it on the plane for him to sit in (he has a ticketed seat)? If your recommendation is "don't fly with small children", uh, your position has been noted, thanks.

I cannot believe we have come around to the point where people have to be in full makeup to record a podcast.

Having a baby will make you believe in ghosts. Like WHAT are you LOOKING AT?

The Rosary: Mom? Mom? Mom? Mom? Mom? Mom? Mom? Mom? Mom? Mom? Mom? DAD? Mom? Mom? Mom? Ma? Mom? Mom? Mom? Mom? Ma? Ma? Mom? DAD? Mom? Mom? Mom? Ma? Mom? Ma? Mom? Ma? Ma? Mom? Mommy? DAD? Mom? Mom? Ma? Mom? Mom? Mom? Mom? Ma? Mom? Mom? Mom? DAD? Ma? Mom? Mom? Mom? Ma? Mommy? Ma? Ma? Ma? Ma? Ma? DAD?

I'll start. I loathe when the main character or primary supporting characters are framed for a crime they didn't commit.

What's a fiction trope that, while not inherently bad, always turns you off?

This is a skeet about the Democrats

I am generally a believer in the idea that the perfect is an enemy of the good. But....the BAD is also an enemy of the good.

Today's children will never know the frustration of going to Sam Ash for the sheet music of the newest Disney movie ballad only to find just the End Credits Pop Music version.

I can't believe they took Doctor Odyssey from us.

Me, teaching about creative writing: "rejection is part of the process. Celebrate rejection because if you're getting rejected it means you're putting yourself out there and that's a win." Me, getting a piece rejected: 😮😭😮😭😮😭😮😭😮😭 (teacher-me is right tho)

Pittsburgh and Allegheny County residents - contact your *county* councilperson to urge them to vote in favor of banning county employees from assisting ICE: www.alleghenycounty.us/Government/R...

Trying to untangle how much parenting advice is actually advice on how to make kids compatible with capitalism

Good morning to everyone's feet who were not prepared for sandal weather.

I just pulled up the Uber app to go somewhere at 9pm and its top suggestion was THE HOSPITAL. You don't know me, Uber! I do fun things at night!

I just had a wistful thought about Arlen Spector 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢

Love Has An Astigmatism

Maybe don't go to a place called *Urban* tap if you don't want to sit at a bar with the real residents of cities. Wow.

Pittsburgh Police investigating who is broadcasting Nazi propaganda on their scanner channel

Every Editorial Board "lamenting" this act of war can get absolutely bent because they had a huge hand in allowing this to occur. You don't get to pretend to be the sober voice of reason now.

Am I going to cry tears of joy when Punch's found monkey family makes his stuffie orangutan "mom" no longer necessary? Absolutely yes. Am I also going to cry for the stuffie orangutan "mom" because Punch no longer needs her? You betcha! I'm fine everything is fine

Gonna pitch a class to the University of Pittsburgh's Master of Public Health program that is just watching episodes of The Pitt and doing a Quality department-style post mortem on everything that went right and wrong from an admin perspective

3 is the most satisfying number of guesses for a wordle

I'm going to astral project into that stuffed orangutan and scare the shit out of the adult monkey picking on my son I mean Punch

Look, maybe ten more seasons will reveal something different but I'm beginning to think that love is not, in fact, blind

Philadelphia Magic Gardens is one of Philly's greatest treasures. I was lucky enough to see Isaiah Zagar constructing it in the 90s and it remains genuinely one of the most beautiful and moving places I've ever seen. His passing is a loss www.phillymagicgardens.org/statement-re...

I think my dream job is Agony Aunt

Heated Rivalry x Gritty crossover when?

I would like words with the engineers or industrial designers who went "you know what device should make a noise when turned on or off and when running low? A humidifier - famously used most in bedrooms and nurseries"

Pittsburgh, it's so nice out. Go outside! And while you're there, put some salt on your steps and sidewalks because all this melting snow is gonna refreeze overnight. (It'll melt again tomorrow but not before you fall ass over teacup on the way to work)

It's going to be in the 40s this week in Pittsburgh. So like....are the pools opening? Kennywood?

The Pitt is hitting the motorcycle foreshadowing so hard I'm expecting an anthropomorphized Harley to walk in the ED and set fire to the nurses station.

Help, I feel bad when my baby is "rude" to his toys.

A reminder - you absolutely should respect the parking chair in this current scenario (snow-nario?). You might be legally allowed to park in a space someone else dug out but don't be surprised if you find your car trapped by re-shoveled snow if you do

Who was responsible for naming Space? Like someone really looked at the vastness and complexity of the universe and said "sure is a lotta space up there. Boom! Named!"

Call your senators even if they are worthless like mine are

Marvelous news! I am glad to see this boost in accessibility for PRT passengers out in Allegheny County! triblive.com/local/pittsb...

I can only hope they learn enough from it to prevent their own cruelty in a way that our peers and predecessors did not

There have been many haunting images from the ICE purges, but the photo of Liam Ramos will be one of those "in every history textbook" photos for future generations to marvel at the cruelty of the past.

I was under prepared for the amount of headbutting I would be on the receiving end of while raising a baby

It should be illegal for babies to have nightmares

Less controversial - E2. Probably my favorite restaurant of all time. I had this carbonara with corn that rocked my world. And Sunday brunch fresh beignets. They still do catering under a different name and we treat ourselves occasionally but it used to be a neighborhood joint
