one of the coolest things about ChatGPT is how you can actually just never use it. you can fill your whole entire life with simply not once using it. it's incredible.

This period of my life has turned me into Miranda Priestly, and not in the "I have a reason to wear my couture closet every day" way.

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who’s coming to save you?

Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:

Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.

If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.

Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

I don’t know, I eat sooooooo much turkey all year. 🤷🏻‍♀️
it is tired to the point of cliche to say if turkey was good, people would make it more than once a year. but it is understated that at least one American explodes every Thanksgiving in a brave attempt to make the main dish more palatable

The New School is now a place where students cannot major in History, Anthropology, Sociology, Global Policy & International Affairs, Global Studies, Urban Studies, or Environmental Studies. And more pauses, closures, and mergers coming down the pike this week. The future is uncertain.

There’s a super cheap direct nonstop flight to CDMX on an airline called Flair. I have never heard of it but assume it is like RyanAir. I can go work at the AGN for some of December for the bookend chapters of my book.
Do I take it? 😅
