When I worked at a restaurant, we’d run after anyone who forgot their boxed leftovers. Chase them down in the parking lot. Boxed leftovers were sacred.

Anyway, we have ample research on how living under a state of sustained terror and stress causes life-long health problems as well as intergenerational epigenetic effects. This feels like it's making you sick because it actually is making you sick.

Whadya know? My appetite suddenly came back. Amazing what can happen when you’re not in fight or flight mode. (don’t worry, fight mode will return very soon)

April Fools’ doesn’t work on the internet and esp not in the age of AI summaries. Few people read past a headline or get the nuance or realize what day it is. And unless you remove the content after April 1, you’ve now got evergreen misinformation!

I am the target audience for a minute and 37 seconds of gong and ambient recording noise mid-album. Especially when it’s an auditory palate cleanser between two very different sounds and moods.

When I work with movement leaders I always say - you are not the acceptable sacrifice for the good of the movement. If the movement depends on sacrificing you - it is being built off the same social norms the country was built on when it sacrifices a whole race of people to start its economic engine

All growing up authority figures said “You wouldn’t want a doctor who cheated through medical school, would you?” And now authority figures want us to allow AI, who has never been to medical school, make life and death decisions during surgeries.

A musical artist I like took 9 years to release new music, and when they did, it was AI slop. Since 2024, they’ve released 64 albums with 13+ tracks. 90% of the album art is AI. I am so sad about this.

What’s with companies with offices calling themselves “remote”? If you have offices around the world, you have distributed teams, but that’s not remote work.

Someone sent me a study yesterday and “summarized” it for me in an attempted “gotcha” moment. The link had “utm_source=chatgpt” at the end. And the summary grossly misrepresented the actual study (guessing the chatgpt summarized it).

I passed Brandon Flowers walking out of a book store. I am a huge fan! He is my style icon! I held my breath until he was sufficiently far away and then grabbed my partner’s arm and danced while whispering “That was Brandon Flowers!”

Been saying this for awhile: We could all stand to learn what a primary source is, why it’s important, and how AI is so removed from it. I really do think primary sources are the secret sauce.

Tested out a new running app today. The experience was so bad I’m fairly certain it was vibe coded and not QA’d. With a $50/year price tag, Im calling it “cash-grab coded.”

I remember 2010 when Glenn Beck held a rally in DC to “restore honor”. Colbert and Stewart responded with a rally to “restore sanity and/or fear”. We’re living in a meme.

Begging y’all to stop memeifying MAGA with their terms like “DEI hire”. While I’m not opposed to bullying these cry baby bitches, dunking isn’t it. It gives them the traction, attention, & money they’re looking for. They’re baiting you. Hoping you’ll turn to jokes instead of organized community.
