There was somebody on that team going “this is a bad look” and they steamrollled ahead with it. Dollars to donuts. Crying in H-Mart, indeed.

Switched phones and haven’t added my email to the new one yet. Highly recommended. I’m also enacting an email hours policy. Years ago on a Saturday I looked at my phone email and got my boss telling me off outta nowhere. Boundaries.

I need to sell this amp so I can help pay for my cat’s hyperthyroidism procedure. In lieu of alt text: 2010 Mesa Boogie Electradyne combo. A few bumps and scrapes but still looks and sounds great. Mostly stock but pre tubes were swapped out in 2022. Friend price $750. Pickup in North Seattle.

Not among me and my friends. Apparently you’ve confused “brutal, stochastic antagonism” for “diversity of thought.”
