I email my work account because I don't check work emails when I'm not at work. I once considered creating an automation system for emailing my personal address and having those emails get added to a to-do list, but didn't ever pull the trigger.

I sms myself information when it's going to be relevant shortly after, but otherwise my notes live in Simplenote and have for years. It syncs across my devices.

I was a year older than my gf (decades ago) and she lived with her folks. It's weird staying over with someone's parents. Just accept it. It's even weirder at 25, I'm sure.

Correction: your kitty's new box had a printer inside. How lucky for you!

This article didn't make sense to me. Unclear how this guy is funding this weird behavior. This reporting of seemingly-random bizarre events reads like I'm on drugs. I'm not disputing their characterization of the dude as a pedo (he's convicted of sex with two underage kids), I just feel like the way this is reported seems like watching a post-modern movie where you're not sure if you understood the plot at the end.

Why would we do anything remotely good under this admin?

With the orange admin cutting programs for rural healthcare, broadband, etc, I wouldn't risk it. He's harming people in rural areas at a lightning pace.

Further: my father was still playing hockey with younger guys while he was in his 70s. He was very active. His decline from that to death took about three years. He grew less and less mobile after an injury (playing hockey like a lunatic) and then broke his hip and that was it.

I chose to stop wearing a watch more than 20 years ago. I thought about getting one for the health benefits five years ago, but concluded that I don't want to have a watch nor cover an awesome tattoo. As a friend once wrote, "wearing a watch is like being handcuffed to time."

"We spent a lot of money on this, so you're going to have it."

Holy shit! It happened! I'm elated.

Edit: Congrats New Yorkers!

Thanks for the heads up. 404 Media is also journalist-owned. They are a four person operation churning out great work.

Is the orange bad going to get mad at him for saying it?

His face is so punchable.

This definitely makes me want to quit my job and work at Home Depot.

An angry, resentful man. At least that's consistent.

Don't let comments in the thread end your resolve. You've got valuable skills to pitch. Start researching countries and learn as much as possible. I did this in 2021 when I decided to flee this country if the orange bad got reelected and settled on New Zealand. I even did a phone interview. But since 2021, I also entered into a relationship and I decided to stay because her refugee status prevents her from coming with me. Now I'm in the hell that is Tump2, but at least I'm in a healthy livng situation when I turn off my screens.

FUCK. Yep, it worked.

Some people derive a great deal of pleasure from hand configuring their system to reflect all their ideals. For some people, it’s fun. Leave them alone and let the enjoy their computers.

Anyone thinking about this should check out the newsletter and / or podcast of Ed Zitron. He’s been railing about this inevitablity for some time.

“We already know we’re gonna send him back, but hang on a minute. Let’s add some vile invasion of privacy first.”
