A fairly common interaction for me lately... Me: you can't trust this person, they lie incessantly. :proves particular lie: Friend: Ugh, fine, you've convinced me. I guess I can't trust anybody, this is so frustrating. Me: No, actually, you can trust many people, just not this particular one! 1/2

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

🧘 Yogis, what’s your favorite online #yoga instructor, class or program? Mine is youtube.com/@charliefoll... She provides a great balance of making her classes accessible while keeping it spicy. Her classes flow really well, and I always feel great by the end.

Smoked 2 whole chickens over the weekend as a Thanksgiving test run. Great success! Only thing I'd do differently is pull the meat off a little sooner. While resting, the internal temperature carried over about 10 degrees.

I asked for a pour over ☕️ in Mexico City 🇲🇽. The barista said they only have Americanos but that he’d make it like a pour over. Turned out to be the best coffee I had in CDMX. And “sprover” or “coffee shot” is a thing. Check out this #lancehedrick video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5oY...

🦋 WELCOME TO BLUESKY! I recommend exploring our custom feeds, which are a little like hashtags but more interesting. We have them for academic and professional subjects, sports, cities, hobbies (e.g., gardening, baking), and many more. Search them in the sidebar under Feeds. 🧵

I can't quite believe that Trump might win this election. I mean, the projections say it's as likely as not to happen, and I moved to New Zealand in part because of Trump's populism posioning the already fundamentally flawed american politics. but still. projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2024-electio...

Y’all have heard “Bitte Orca” from Dirty Projectors, but “Swing Lo Magellan” is a masterpiece too.
