Can we all just agree that "great question!" (and its siblings) is overused as a response and save it for questions that are actually great?

Oh... My..... Gosh. If anyone is looking for an early gift for me. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/01/n...

i am seriously begging democrats to bring the same smoke to this story that they brought to jimmy kimmel being indefinitely suspended

Now more than ever, we need Google Correlate to come back.

I'm going to make a helluva top-level manager as soon AI gets to a level of becoming a full assistant. 😃 (Said tongue in cheek due to my morning problem with organization).

I realized I'm "they don't make things like they used to" years old now.

Sitting on bleachers is not comfy. Follow me for more parenting tips.

I feel like my notes are being judged...

In other news- They refilled my meds with a 90 day supply! Some rule must have changed becz prior I was only allowed 30 days and its a PIA to go through the whole "request/wait/fill" dance every month. For just 1 damn Rx.

Why has Microsoft stopped including visio downloads in their Azure Architecture online documentation? I asked copilot, and it gave me the runaround and then offered to make one for me, but then it couldn't.

Was resisting "vibe coding" because of the fru-fru name until I realized I was already doing it for certain things.

I think we got a preview of this when our country started arguing about school shootings and not finding a solution to kids dying from it.

It always astonishes me how little people know about things that may be difficult for neurospicy people. Even people who SHOULD KNOW.

Today is the day!

When I first read The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, my only real complaint was that making the antagonists actual pedophile Nazis was a little too obvious narratively. …I don’t feel that way any more

Anyone have 3mil they want to give me? www.barnebys.com/auctions/lot...

Quick - What illness is going around that causes sniffles, major tiredness, and cognitive impairment? Possibly sore joints, but that could also be weather related (ppl over 35 understand). My whole family seems to have the start of something, but this cognitive thing is weirding me out.

First time I can ever remember I had to snap at a dentist. Normally, I'd be mortified at doing that, but today, I'm not. Felt like I was using my mom voice.

Apparently this is "all my fault" and I should have known that this would be the consequences of my actions when I started medical transition 2 decades ago. Perhaps you can now appreciate why we are upset? (13/13)

Here goes the latest Data Platform WIT newsletter. We hope to see you at some events this fall. dataplatformwit.com/2025/08/29/w...

Leaders come in all shapes, sizes, and personalities. Even introverts! Join Tiffany Portis to learn how introverts can lead the way. #DATAWIT

This whole idea of more advanced technology is helping us to be more productive is a lot of hooey.

I don't think even women (and some men) know how much of their day is spliced by helping others. No wonder we always feel burnt out.

Trying to register my kids for school sport activities and it has a required field for "student phone". 🙄 Sorry. I guess I'm one of "those" parents in that my 11 year olds do not have phones.

Think leading is only for extroverts? Think again! Join #DATAWIT and Tiffany Portis next month with the session: Leading as an Introvert

Copilot is really bad at ERDs. At least for d365 f&o stuff.

Shelled pistachios look like little mussels. How did that happen?

Guess who's getting back into speaking. :-) It's been a hot minute.

Back in the ATL, where it is hotter than blue blazes.

New grandbaby came in the early hours. Can't wait to get on a plane to go see his roly-polies.

I'm not a DBA, but I was an accidental one decades ago. On several occasions. Those skills still hold up. Looking at you PROD server. I'm coming for ya.

Grandbaby scheduled for Friday. I bought a plane ticket 2 months ago for Thursday. Son called and said he told people that I probably used multiple sources of data to guess the date. While some of it is luck, and the baby could still decide differently, my son wasn't wrong.

This week in Figuring out #MicrosoftFabric , @mmarie.bsky.social compares Fabric and Databricks youtu.be/nzdXV4tApUs

Couldn't sleep last night and switched between a historical lawyer French series on Netflix and middle school math on Khan Academy.

"We know that who you choose a child with is just as important as..." Me: .... (takes a moment to realize they said "flight", not "child".)

This tracks with me being adhd and getting wrong answers a lot.

“Millions of low-income Americans could experience staggering financial losses under the domestic policy package that Republicans advanced through the Senate on Tuesday, which reserves its greatest benefits for the rich…” www.nytimes.com/2025/07/01/b...

Wondering how this will play with midwest farmers. I never knew how much wind and solar energy were out here until I came.

Samuel Alito might be scared of queer joy, but you, your communities, and your families don't have to be. There are still ways to fight for inclusive literature, despite this devastating loss and setback.

People who believe not voting 2024 makes them morally superior because they're not "murdering children" should be constantly reminded that they helped elect Trump, who destroyed USAID - an act that's now murdering children around the world. www.bu.edu/sph/news/art...

Callous to an unsung hero: @sqlgene.com. Thank you for all that you do.

New blog post - who dis? Fabric Deployment Pipeline: Can't see anything to deploy. dataworkmom.short.gy...

If I go missing or post weird stuff (weirder than normal), it may be becz I pissed off a troll/scammer.

I'm getting really frustrated with our MS rep's abstract answers to my Fabric reservation question. It's really a Yes/No question at this point. I've had to basically ask the same question different ways 3x now.

According to the socials, an add brain has a maturity age about 30% less than a person's physical age and stops around age 32 regardless.
