what’s your favorite bus?

(Photo from June 2024) RideOn 56, wrapped for Pride! The whole drivers side of the bus (shown) is decked out in the Intersex Progress Pride flag, with the yellow/left side of flag at front of bus, and light-up letters in rainbow colors at the far right end of the bus spelling out “PRIDE”.

also I have had a driver creep slowly, then accelerate at me when I took too long to cross (in marked crosswalk with the walk signal) in front of their left turn (also while maintaining eye contact) so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Heather is 🎶 for Science 🎶 @heatherwgaona.bsky.social · 21h

oh yeah I don’t wait, I assert my walk and maintain eye contact.

it’s so frustrating getting bad updates! I would love to give helpful feedback to make it better! I’m not just going to complain; I will say what isn’t working and in what way and what might be better. But I find it is frequently unwanted.

Same intersection tho! One of my Top 5 Worst, for a reason

Heather is 🎶 for Science 🎶 @heatherwgaona.bsky.social · 21h

Two! Two different drivers turning right nearly ran me right over, while we made eye contact with each other ! so they definitely ✨saw✨ me but I guess figured I would move? faster? it was like they were herding cattle and I was the 🐮

I really want to ask the obvious question about a recent software update but I know no one actually cares. Updates that make the user experience worse don’t matter to software devs and the people who buy/implement tools in a workplace.

Dear MoCo Drivers, wtf are y’all doing this morning? Please yield (that means wait) for people crossing on foot — in marked crosswalks at controlled intersections with the walk light in broad fucking daylight. Any kind of encouragement from the PTB would be super appreciated.

how do some purely commercial podcasts produced by media companies have lower audio quality than fan podcasts?

how do people not realize that outsourcing the brain work to ai on the job means devaluing human labor

timekeeping software got an update and now for some reason it has the option to talk to it? oh because it got an ai implant, of course, that is what this timesheet needed

is there a worse example of good idea to bad idea than Sharepoint? other than FB Workplace, which crashed and burned before ever actually taking off

Hallowe'en is just around the corner and it is one of the most dangerous days for children. Here are some safety tips:

1) Avoid hitting children with your pickup truck, SUV or other motor vehicle. It is technically against the law to harm or kill a child with your vehicle and you could be charged.

hmm, good point. My Texas experience is limited to San Antonio -ish and a staunchly anti-sauce family who could really smoke a brisket , oh man, brisket tacos

Heather is 🎶 for Science 🎶 @heatherwgaona.bsky.social · 2d

Heather is 🎶 for Science 🎶 @heatherwgaona.bsky.social · 2d
