I am so fucking tired of having the emotional regulation of a fucking toddler.
I know I'm autistic and I know I'm in burnout and I know I can't help it and it doesn't change anything, I hate it and it's humiliating.
Tried to spatchcock a chicken.
Got frustrated.
Tried to put it in the refrigerator.
Broke a plate.
Had a meltdown, screamed at the walls for a couple minutes and scared my sweet pup Penny.
I do not like today.
Hors d'oeuvres? There are probably a couple fun variations of that, but I'm imagining cocktail party style, something you can pick up in one hand and eat in a few bites.

"Of course not. I mean. I mean, what I meant was, what's 4/20?"
If Democrats in power are not using every lever they have to obstruct Trump now, why would you believe they would do it later?
I want a pillowcase full of Halloween candy that tastes like it did back then.
Oh wow it turns out SHE was the one who snatched my friend's pillowcase as we were walking up a hill in East Oakland in 1998 omg you did it for ME.
Hello I am CEO of EvilCo, a branch of Umbrella Corp, and no we’re not the Umbrella Corp from the games we were just inspired by them, you’re not gonna to believe this but we have just released a company memo that says we’re not good human beings
Look, for my money the absolute game changer technologies right now are batteries and biosciences, not statistically modeling a mid conversation, but you do you.
Mamdani: "What are we fighting for?. When you look back at the history books of our party, 100 years ago we had a very clear vision of what we were fighting for. It's sad that for too many Americans, when they want to look for ambition in the Democratic Party, then have to turn to a history book."
Headline from The Guardian: Traders placed over $1 billion in perfectly timed bets on the Iran war. What is going on?
Yeah geez weird impossible to know I guess
One of the biggest lies in American culture is that the wealthy got wealthy by making morally good choices (ie working hard) and the poor got poor by making morally bad choices (ie being lazy and irresponsible) and that they both deserve what they got.
I have the sound off on my computer and smooth jazz playing on the stereo and I have to say it does something to this series of pathetic scenes.
$75 million: Amount Amazon spent to acquire & promote Melania
$75 million: Cost of the 246-foot yacht Jeff Bezos bought to follow his 417-foot yacht
$100 million: 2025 loss by Bezos' Washington Post, which recently cut 40-plus percent of its staff
The numbers our AI overlords don’t want you to see.
My friend Matthew will be needing additional surgery. Anything you can give to help with medical costs and costs of living will be appreciated.
They have given tirelessly of themself to save disabled people like me. Even just sharing this will help slow them that same love and support in return.
People keep blabbing that Congress is "so divided" but they're never divided when it comes to these three things:
1) Supporting Israel no matter what it does
2) Covering for Jeffrey Epstein and his network
3) Supporting Big Tech, including technofascists, and taking their donations
the president of the united states is personally looting the treasury to the tune of literally billions of dollars and that he is not being immediately removed from office and tried for high crimes against this country is a devastating indictment of every part of our political system
people will be like "it actually takes some patience and careful checking for errors to make sure that chatbot returns the text you want" and what you're describing is a waste of your time dumbass. use your human brain to do stuff instead of arguing with Smarter Child for it
This is a great breakdown of why it's so absurd devs think AI can code.

DoorDash Grandma isn't a paid plant. (For that, you need to be paid!) Instead, her story is far worse.
She's a depressing example of how MAGA cultists have internalized the lies that justify their own oppression.

The proper response is to simply not treat the cocaine-fueled fantasies of a billionaire sex pest as if they have any merit whatsoever, and simply not get caught up in a stoned freshman philosophy 101 argument with the stupidest fucking people who have ever lived.
The billionaire sex pests pushing generative AI keep spinning up badly remembered science fiction scenarios of apocalypse, as both advertisement ("we are literally creating a god... it might be too powerful!") and as a way of shifting the conversation from its actual real world harms it already does
I wish the tech industry a very deep and long lasting crash that breaks this thirst for permanent high growth from greedy investors. We should break them until they learn to have reasonable profit expectations and make investments based on safety instead of vibes and hype again.
Cavall had his job interview and they kept him for an hour and a half and seemed really enthusiastic about him so fingers crossed he gets an offer! They said he'd hear either later today or Monday.
Every day a different billionaire says the most horrific movie villain thing you've ever heard but this guy and a grandpa from Vermont are the scary ones because they want to tax them
If there are any Democrats who are thinking of running for the presidency on 2028 on anything less than a clear agenda of widespread prosecution for this administration's corruption and fundamental structural changes to ensure it can't happen again, they should just stop right there.
Facebook says my account is suspected of "automated behavior".
Y'all I have not posted on my own account in a decade and the only time I do post is maybe once a month on the No Buy group.
because CD players, walkmans, and VCRs usually fucking worked and did precisely what was asked of them without relogging in and syncing and re-entering passwords and getting confirmation codes and doing 2FA with out TV and phone and clicking a fake "remember me" box that's fucking why
I also made a frankly (and unapologetically) misandrist comment about men in general but he seems to have missed that one.
