Yeah, I’m in the “you guys” zone and I say y’all, it’s always better received.

There really aren’t enough novels about aimless, gay werewolves called Brian... ― Sunday Times, Books to Watch in 2023

My expectations have been exceeded.

What book is this?

It’s a trip seeing them around. Somehow they look even worse in person.

1 bed/bath to myself (and my cat). Happier here than anywhere I’ve been with a partner.

Birthdays make me so uncomfortable. Even when they’re mentioned in work chat and it’s flooded with gifs/“happy birthday!”s, I just don’t get it.

I have a Snap Grip Luxe on the back of my Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition, which has wireless Qi charging but is not magnetic. On phones, the Snap Grip allows for passthrough wireless charging, so when I mounted it, I held my Kindle up to a wireless charging stand until I found the spot where it started charging, marked the top of the back with some tape, and mounted it roughly where I thought the charging coil might be (though there's some uncertainty because I don't know exactly where the charging hardware is inside my stand). It doesn't work.

It's possible this feature just doesn't work with the Kindle, but I have a new Kindle arriving soon and will have another shot at this, so I was curious if there was some way I can precisely locate and mark where the charging coil is on the back of my new Kindle to at least eliminate that factor. Any ideas?

At my last job we had to visit the company financial office to work on their expensing software and the receptionist actually called security because they thought our lead developer was a homeless person who got into the building.

“I’m not sure the public would stand for it,” he said. “I think it would be tough for the public to take. You know, at a certain point, there’s a breaking point.”

This mf really trying to do it again.

Is the only argument against lab-grown meat that it disrupts an existing industry? Because I’ve yet to hear a legitimate reason why this is a bad idea.

I decided to stop making excuses a few years ago and just say when I’m not feeling socially up to it or there are too many people. Positive reactions literally across the board, haven’t had a single weird conversation. I’d recommend it.

I still haven’t had to update a Twitter logo on a website yet. We’ve had it come up for 3 clients so far, and they’ve all just decided to drop it. You love to see it.

I really don’t understand why everyone uses AI as a term to describe anything generated by a computer.
