while chatgpt is offline i will happily step in to make up some unhinged bullshit for you

Is a global Heroku outage the corporate equivalent of a snow day? Asking for me.

DAMN THE [BOARD] SAVE THE EMPIRE

We have some news to share with you. 🥄 Today we took legal action to challenge our termination, filing an appeal with the U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board. We did this because we believe the elimination of 18F violated safeguards that exist to protect a nonpartisan civil service.

Let’s call it like it is: Marco Buscaglia, tired from his full-time day job, saw ChatGPT as an easy way to make $ after hours to write advertorial slop for him. He was not educated on the fact that it lies/hallucinates info, and figured it didn’t matter. That is, until he got caught.

heads up y'all help stop this anti-trans fundraiser in kendall on sunday, 5/18 #CambridgeMA #BostonMA #SupportTransPeople

After federal troops forced a fugitive slave named Anthony Burns back into slavery in the 1850s, one Bostonian wrote, “we went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, Compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists.” The abuse of power radicalizes people. We are seeing that now.

The tshirts at Gracie’s said “Get an ice cream cone you coward” so I did (black raspberry Oreo; Fluff cone) and I have never eaten an ice cream more quickly or stressfully in my LIFE — purple on my shirt, face, hands, pants and the sidewalk! @unlikelywords.bsky.social you did this to me (thank you)

For someone as funny as he is, Rob Delaney sure makes me cry *a fucking lot.* He & Michelle Williams are transcendent in “Dying For Sex”, my god. And Jenny Slate breaks my heart & mends it again on repeat, she’d better win every award for this show.

Lea Kayali of the Palestinian Youth Movement addresses a gathering of hundreds in Somerville. “When they come for one of us, they come for all of us.”

I kept being stuck by: this is something they have prepared for. This is something they *have to* prepare for. God help us.

I knew The Pitt was going to be intense this week, but I was still not ready.

This @shannonrwatts.bsky.social column is bringing it: Democrats in Congress either need to have leaders step up and lead an anti-Trump backlash or get out of the way. shannonwatts.substack.com/p/every-demo...

Must read: Mahmoud Khalil speaks out for the first time since his arrest by the Trump administration in an exclusive letter, dictated over the phone to his family, from ICE detention in Louisiana.

This is a highly specific post, but this household *lives* for the local Jennifer Bylo ads during Jeopardy on WBZ, and we absolutely love the plot development of the arrival of Baby Richie (Chief Consultant.)

I feel like I’m finally putting some pieces together about the struggle of the job market right now, where highly qualified, talented people are barely even getting a call back. Yes, AI in hiring is part of it, but I see another crucial piece that’s less talked about. (thread)

We knew it was going to happen, because “ceasefire” is a meaningless term to the state of Israel. Doesn’t make it any easier to learn about the latest. Horrific.

I just saw SO many things on The Pitt. So many. 😳 This show…

Hello, I’m a disruptor, very smart, here to create efficiency. I’m just going to drill holes in the bottom of this boat to see which parts of the hull are mission-critical.

I don’t think I’m going to be sleeping very well for *checks notes* the rest of this administration. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/12/n...

welp I’m going to the Roots Picnic again… unreasonably excited to spend more time in Philly 🦅
