I’ve been off of all social media for over three months now… I feel happier about myself and I worry less about what others are doing with their lives that I could form envy towards

I really want to spend time with an elephant, a chimpanzee, and a dolphin sometime. like smart animals.

omg i have like legendary skills with Apps Script. ive been using it consistently for some 10 years now 😦

my microwave has a working button. but is not big enough for a rotating popcorn bag.

I read an article from a year ago that Biden delaying his dropping out of the race risked erasing his biggest accomplishment: stopping Trump. It was clear to me so long ago that Democrats needed the normal 18-month primaries to find the popular candidate, and even if it ended up being Kamala as the nominee, she would’ve had a year to get her name out there like Obama had before Nov. 2008. Democrats lost the election; it was theirs to lose, and Biden screwed us all with his prolonged ego fest.

trump has won, per fox news

i really like “living near work” since i feel like i can always be working in some where comfortable: at home in private or at work in a ammenified/wonderful building

Does this still work? I just updated my Github access token.

I brought in what we had said, I did an editorial about this way back, saying I don’t know if they should bring this case, it’s the people just gonna see it about a sex case. Here’s what we said, Joe Sixpack is not going to take the time to wrap his head around how the statute of limitations applies to a misdemeanor of falsifying business records if it involves a violation of state election law in a second crime involving a federal campaign conditional on the residential status of the defendant. That’s kind of hard to put on a bumper sticker.

This was crazy… I just saw this average guy signing with a homeless person, kind of asking for food… I said hi to the signer and started having a conversation. He taught me “see you later” amazing. It was just a two min convo because I had a train to get to, but it was amazing to “see” new people: ❤️ to ASL.

For the first time in six years, I understood why I was doing all this work on my health and fitness, and recovery… It is to build myself and my life so that I can attract a woman to join me on my life’s journey. I have a tangible and actionable vision of the man I want to be.

It seems like the sense of obligation to recycle and compost has a cultural component; some of my friends who grew up in the American South don’t seem to hold the same sense of near-sacred responsibility that I share about taking care of our environment.

I made my own query language for data in Google Sheets tables in Google Apps Script (JavaScript)!

This is also awesome.

“I think there’s a misconception about dating apps. Misunderstanding is related to the human being. Most apps look at human beings as ‘partner consumers’. That is to say: Here you have a suitable partner, go get it! So you are a consumer and your partner is a product that you consume. When they bring you the product next, you try it and say: No, no, this is too boring. Neither does this other one. Give me another one. And this is a big misconception that people are not consumers of partners. They are relationship makers. And the hardest part starts after you meet someone. It’s not about finding ‘the right one’. The point is to create a relationship. The app doesn’t do that for you. We need an app that teaches us how to create better relationships” -Yuval Noah Harari
