I think the worst part of AI (for me) is that i was finally at a point where I was writing as my career, then circumstances happened and now most of the writing jobs are to train AI. I’m back to doing something else and writing for pleasure and maybe someone will want to read it?

I can always tell when someone is confused by the shockingly unphotogenic person on their camera after my picture is taken and it’s ok. I’m aware my face transforms into a vampiric gremlin on camera but ppl think I don’t know and suggest another shot. Guess what. It’s gonna be worse.

Working at a nonprofit means everyone’s pupils dilate and they get the sweats about postits. “You’re not taking that whole stack are you??”

Fake Monday really throwing its weight around. The kid missed the bus, my car wouldn’t start and I had to walk to work in the rain. I think I’m out of desk cookies too

Today I met a black and white cat and I’d like to think he was Boots, the kitten I adopted out to a masters student from Halifax 12 years ago. He was litter mates with my boy Albert (😭). This was very sure he knew me and demanded pets.

I’ve decided to start calling the raccoon who eats out of our compost Jorge because I think it sounds better than calling him the “fat bastard raccoon” like we’ve been doing

We’re watching a Jason Statham movie. He’s in a new trade, but he’s already done beekeeper and construction worker. He’s trying out all the careers, just like Barbie
