May every single human being on this planet be safe. May every single person be protected from harm. May we bring into being a time in which we are all free from those who do evil— together, speedily and in our days.

Just noticed this Milk Street recipe I've made several times insists on fresh squeezed citrus juice instead of the pre juiced stuff I have been using. You absolutely extra assholes, never change, Milk Street

I'm going to spend this weekend not leaving my house and not talking to humans outside of my house (brunch excluded) and it's going to be glorious and necessary

It's really great having two orange cats named Toast. We made a good choice adopting both of them

The NYT's anti-trans fear mongering was cited in a Supreme Court briefing that stripped away the rights of trans kids. They need to be fully blacklisted by queer people and their allies. Don't work for them. Don't use them for book press. Don't speak with them for stories. They made their bed.

I am once again asking for some equivalent to a pop-up blocker that blocks the "would you like AI with that" messages sprouting up like spots of mold in every application

2025 seems like it's life on hard mode for basically everybody - except the two perfect orange kittens in my house, who know no other year of existence and now get to be called Toast and loved on all day 🧡🧡

The ongoing cognitive load that comes from navigating around invasive AI prompts in all sorts of places they don't need to be has to be wasting more time than it's saving if you actually use the tools.

It’s bleak out there, but it’s heartening to know millions of people from all walks of life took the time to ruin one specific persons birthday, America’s hater spirit remains strong

Had my first truly bad day at the new job today; part of why it hit so hard was because last week was so productive that I totally didn't see today coming

Logging into FB is so depressing, just the most basic, shallow takes about the current situation in LA from people I went to HS with. And then every 10th post, something I actually came there to see 😫

In other news, Echo and I worked together to get estimates + book a contractor to repair the back porch, and I'm feeling very satisfied at accomplishing a thing I've been putting off for a few years now
