I certainly know some organisations that could stand to consider this sort of thing.

Ok, Wallabies. Be like Biden.

Barring malign influence somehow making him the winner, my prediction is not only will he not need to be dragged out kicking and screaming, he'll actually have left before January 20th. He couldn't stomach the ceremonial role of the loser.

Like a 3 day old balloon with a pinprick, deflating with one final fart at the system that's been rigged in his favour since birth. One more rallying cry for the 14-worders and their millions of supporters to nurse in their gizzards for the days, weeks, and years to come.

I only hope I have left is that the k-pop stans eventually defeat the Nazis and in a generation their's will be the cultural hegemony, and when the short skirt secret police come to your door to arrest your uncool niece they will announce themselves with "Blackpink in your area!"

FWIW, I do indeed say this and more to people who work with me. Recently one of them listened and now she has a better job.

Set up a Postgres database in AWS RDS last month. Was expected to receive 1s of calls per day, so picked the smallest instance in the Free Tier.

Never actually ended up using it, got distracted by a yak shave.

Still cost me $24.43, this free tier db.

I really enjoy Last Week Tonight, but it just hit me. The show is basically Family Guy for people who like to think they are smart.

3-4 minutes of plot followed by 30 seconds of absurdist derail, written by manatees randomly picking topics written on balls.

A very positive aspect that of permanently working from home - I only just remembered today is the day of that race down in Victoria.

"May the force be with you cocksuckers," is not something I thought I would anticipate hearing, and yet here we are.

I get that journalists and newsletter writers and public philosophers are always going to lean towards believing writing out 1000 words is helpful. That's their thing!

But it is so adorable that so many people still believe in the Locke and Demosthenes scenes.

Gig economy jobs are a free market web that catches people before the tax-payer funded safety net can save them from being trapped, wrapped, and sapped dry by vampire squid like this goon.

Which is pretty awful when you think about it.

As a neutral I very much would like to see Richmond lose, 25 to 114

You, a normal human: “What’s new?”

Me, a transactional conversationalist: “uhhhh...” while trying to remember what’s happened since we spoke last.

Seeing my own bot show up in my timeline via retweets of random third parties.

Achievement unlocked!

I feel really ill. Must have been something I ate earlier today, apparently.

A question like “What excites you about working at X” is basically a flashing neon sign that reads “CLOSE THE FUCKING APPLICATION; THESE PEOPLE SUCK!!”

TIL you can still get dial up internet accounts in Australia, and D knows someone using one.
