My muse, Wade, from Next Door. (Neighborhood cat who was found and their owner posted this insane photo of them licking their food)

we have summer break at work and I am excited to take a break from my most irritating coworker, Claude, who I spend all day interupting and correcting, yet is held in god-level regard amongst the leadership team.

Back to work. Today I am Sherlock Holmes and Claude is my Watson. Just it's the bad goofy watson.

PS- I still have covid symptoms and an extreme desire to leave the house. I have put on a 'not for outside' outfit to keep my ass inside. But it's my town's art festival weekend and I want to go so bad. 😭 Ai ain't helping me with real problems like this.

I am not an AI shill, BUT I think this depends on how you use it. I give it a list of tasks to do that I planned. I don't let it think for me. I also find it to be very iterative. I need to make it refactor a lot. I have to stop it often because it does things wrong. Like 50% of the time.

Being sick for almost 2 weeks makes my patience very thin, and I need all online stores to not show me a modal asking for my email within seconds of visiting the site.

We are on a cruise with Billy's family and a guy dressed in rubber duck clothes came on the elevator. He is one of the people who hides the ducks! he gave us this and it has an in memory of Cathy on the back which is so precious I am going to cry

these are getting weird

I had to read Machiavelli's The Prince in highschool and it confirmed what I always suspected... that everyone is evil 😑

I am watching The Perfect Neighbor and I know this is going to make me cry. I don't like kids messing with my stuff either, but these kids are so cute and silly.

Claude ran out of Sue tokens today. Today was an especially hard day of 'good catch!', 'you're right!' and I am using Opus. Also it updated and set itself to xhigh, so it was Extremely expensive while it was being fast at being wrong all day.

Didn't she 'die'?

How are yall doing? I'm doing great. I just explained how CSS works to Claude.

I am sorry beloved old male actors, you're too old for action roles. You gotta transition to grandpas and old coots

I have the most responsible claude token usage of the whole team. What's a girl gotta do to spend her company's money with wanton abandon? I use this shit every day!

have you ever considered that drawing with a new and different brush may cure your depression and fix everything?

look at my dog

Reading Unlikely Animals by Annie Hartnett It's really good. It's about family, grief, the opioid epidemic in rural towns. It's got ghosts, a missing person, a pet fox from Russia, a big sweet nanny dog. It's just very good

Making art so hard today that my phone can't read my finger prints because they are too covered in goop

sometimes I think I should learn to do my own dark magic instead of always relying on etsy witches, but then I think about how I am putting theoretical money into the economy every time I threaten to hire one

I swear if anyone touches our trolls I will hire an etsy witch so fast. Sad news about Austin, TX's troll. www.kut.org/austin/2026-...

there's literally so many solvable problems in the world, white guys just don't want to invest in companies that solve them. We are not lacking good ideas. We are lacking ideas that some rich dude thinks are good.

they're replacing libraries with a guy who just says shit

I have to use claude at work & I only use it when it's frustrating nit picky work. Now during work hours if I'm at my computer and I am doing any sort of frustrating task my brain goes "Claude, do this..." "Claude, make this wing eyeliner match the other eye" "Claude finish frenchbraiding my hair"

I’ll never forget reading The Stand for the first time in middle school and not comprehending how Larry Underwood could spend so much money buying coke. I like soft drinks too but get a grip my man

i have ended up finding the perfect local event for me. It's a reading club. You go to a bar and read quietly for 2 hours.

i have been looking at local events in my neighborhood since taking that Soul Collage workshop. I found one run by a white lady with a fake indian name who teaches how to make a Medicine Wheel. Which she said she is authorized to do by fake sounding indian name man of the Cherokee.

before and after smoking a big explosive cartoon cigar

i love her. She looks like she smokes and has killed a man.

This would have been creepier if it didn't get multiple of the 27 points of data wrong. What results do other people get?

Yoh, what a story!

Accessibility is not an add-on. It is the foundation of great digital experiences. Build with inclusion first, and usability, trust, and quality follow. Strong message from Julia Solórzano. juliasolorzano.com/b... #Accessibility #InclusiveDesign #UX #DigitalTransformation #Leadership #A11y

Gameplay. Just kidding, but Billy told me about the plot of Silent Hill f and I was like 'Dang I wish that was a book.'

Live video of a CEO putting A.I. technology to good use at his high-pressure job

Watching a cartoon that probably came out in 2017 where they are doing interviews 60 years in the future about how 2017 was an important year that was a turning point in society for the better and huh... no it was not.

👍

I am reading A Beast Slinks Towards Beijing by Alice Evelyn Yang. This book is so good. I have already cried 3 times.

WHY DO THEY BLAME CLAUDE AND NOT THE PERSON USING CLAUDE? I have to use claude at work and it doesn't do a single thing without my approval. When it does something I don't like, I stop it.

I love this essay very much!!!!

I did it. I went to a Soul Collage workshop today. I went by myself and I think I will only worry about how weird I am a little bit.

I don't read many male authors (not intentionally or anything) but when I do I am always surprised at how much boner talk there is

I can't wait to show people on monday.

today was hack day at work and thanks to claude design I was able to create a ui for our app that was so much fucking cooler than what we have now. I already have exported it and made it production ready and hooked up to a real backend.

i used to think I'd be a bad manager because I am an emotional sponge who hates more than 2 meetings per day. But now I think I'd be bad because if I ever got negative feedback about my direct reports I would argue with the reporter that they are wrong.

I signed up for a new patreon sticker club. The artist is named Kawafi and the sticker came with a little letter. Nadia talks about all the things going on in her life and what music she's listening to. It was really sweet.

not the point but doesn’t this pic of cruz make him look like he’s in the musical cats?
