The best thing I've ever done as an IT professional is install adblockers for elderly and non-computer-literate clients. Everyone should use them. It's not even just an aesthetics thing, it's an "ads are responsible for serving tons of malicious scripts that trick people into calling numbers or clicking links that lead to scammy shit" thing.

Fuck ads.

I’m having fun learning #pinhole #photography. Or maybe relearning photography altogether. Shot on Ilford MGIV in a Harmon Ilford Obscura.

Batman but he finally gets therapy to deal with his parent's loss and realizes dressing up in a suit to beat up petty criminals is a trauma response and begins to invest billions into healthcare, police abolishment, fair housing, and drug treatment which drastically reduces crime to the point capitalists plot to eliminate him and when the succeed, this prompts the Justice Leauge to go after the industrialists responsible for his death, which give the general populace a chance to seize the means of production and the military is afraid to act because Superman has promised to destroy one military base for every civilian life they take.

That would be a pretty cool story.

It also means less stuff! Which is better for the planet.

I highly recommend it!

I used to learn in school, many decades ago, that squirrels hibernate. But here, minus 10 Celcius... we have Brutus running up and down frozen and slippery trees having fun... gathering his walnuts. Is that also a climate change issue or didn’t I pay enough attention in school?

I have a friend who is looking to change #jobs - she's a #Rust developer with a fair bit of experience who wants to find something in the platform engineering or adjacent spaces. She'd like to find a full-remote job at an org not constrained by a large legacy codebase, that handles their own operations and infrastructure, and has a clear roadmap.

If you have any leads, please send them to me so I can forward them to her; feel free to boost for reach. Thank you!

When I see famous people in the news parading about in public indoor spaces without masks on in the pandemic, I think of Veronica Lake changing her trademark "over the eye" hairstyle during WWII to help the war effort so that women on assembly lines would stop being maimed due to obscured vision from copying her. I think about it a lot.

I like people who are like Veronica Lake.

"If women would just say what they mean using the right combination of words in the right place at the right time in the right pitch, tone and volume using appropriate body language and demeanour while wearing the right clothes and doing their hair and makeup just so, men wouldn'...

A bunch of people are sending me pictures of my #book with their dogs and I find this so adorable. Pls post photos of my book with your animal frens.
