Seems unfair that you only get to use the bouncy slide to get off a plane when things have gone wrong. The bouncy slide should be a treat they give to the best passengers who did the flight correctly.

I dunno my dude, I had a much better MTTR in my 20s than 40s.
When I was 20, I brushed off being doored while riding my back. Now, my back hurts if I sneeze wrong.

With the death of Brigitte Bardot, it's not a good day to be an animal lover.
Pretty much every single animal shelter/refuge/association I'm helping is posting her eulogy, conveniently forgetting she was a racist, ableist, homophobic, garbage person.

Networking doesn't mean schmoozing up to famous people, it means making friends with your peers. Then in 10 years, 20, one of you might be famous? And sure you're still helping each other cus well yeah friends.
Make. Friends.

Talking to one of these types at a con who asked how I 'got in' with so many 'famous writers' who I'd been talking to and I said "we made friends before anyone knew who we were decades ago by striking up interesting conversations and enjoying each other's company" and he kept re-asking the question.
They have come to the convention hoping to "break in" and then find themselves -- shocker! -- a "nobody in the book world." Yeah no shit! We all are! I have gently told guys like this a million times that it takes most of us *years* of hard work but they do not believe that could be true for them. +

Wild how hormone therapy is “life-changing” when it makes a menopausal woman horny enough for her husband again, but “dangerous ideology” when it helps trans people. Turns out the moral line is just whether a man gets laid.
