This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

A friend remarked this weekend that T is not, “my president.” While I agree with very little he says or does, I certainly respect the office and the electoral process. Sadly, he is my president, and I will continue to hope and pray that he makes better, kinder decisions.

Goldman Sachs, Jan 21: "Despite Trump’s comments that the 25% tariff will be implemented in 10 days, we continue to believe the odds of a 25% tariff on Canada and Mexico are low (20%)." Why have analysts been caught so flat-footed by Trump doing exactly what he said he would?

Mark, you dipshit, I hope you know exactly how many people detest you. Personally, my hate has been a decade building, thanks to you helping fascists in India normalize hate, foment violence and destroy our democracy, such as it was.

Watched Heretic (2024) earlier this week. Surprisingly deep with great performances across the board. Some tropes weren’t handled very well, but was well-crafted overall and definitely left me thinking.

The thing to understand about Trump is like in his first term, he doesn’t want to govern. He doesn’t want to learn. He wants to campaign and look good. Republicans know this. So there are battles going on right now to take control of the actual process of governing.

Most of my promotions were based on my ability to attach my work to the metrics below. Working at a major cloud provider made this a lot easier because we tracked everything. It largely comes down to earning and sharing the credit across different teams including engineering, product, and sales.
