Alright. New people seemingly following me out of nowhere in today's influx. Did I get recommended to you? What made you follow me? Inquiring minds want to know!

Having one of those moments where I really want a cat again, but I've resigned myself to not doing that in our current home. So I'm just feeling sad instead.

I was less than 10 feet from Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter tonight, and Keanu made eye contact with me after smiling at my shirt.

@lookitup.baby you were right that the show was incredible. Just absolutely brilliant.

Today isn't the best day I've had, but I'm feeling pretty darn good and it's nice to be able to grasp those positive moments. Strong rec for others to do the same, in this absolute hell world.

I could never live here, but damn do I enjoy visiting Manhattan. NYC is one hell of a city. Good to be back.

I always feel like I'm simultaneously unprepared and dramatically overpacked any time I travel and it's kinda horseshit.

I don't know who decided it's a good idea for laptops to start being built with riveted metal plates keeping the keyboard attached to the housing, but I want to find them and shake the absolute hell out of them.

Ghost energy drink has an "original" flavor, and it tastes like somebody tried to recreate Red Bull from memory and failed. Which is actually a good thing, in that it's better than Red Bull. But a bad thing, in that nobody should want the taste of Red Bull.

The level of mental exhaustion I'm feeling today is excessive, and I didn't even get paged. Computers were a mistake.

Midnight beta invites went out, and I'm weirdly not feeling FOMO about it. Not that I don't want to play, but the whole reduction in UI modding has actually made me feel like I'm more okay with just being casual.

Took 40 years, but I can finally say I've seen the aurora firsthand. Barely visible with the human eye this far south and in a lot neighborhood, but the photo came out better than I expected.

Immense respect to red teamers, and I envy the fuck out of you for not being put into the position of getting the adrenaline hit from an alert that screams "shit has been breached and everything is bad"

I'm live now at twitch.tv/gnome_anne learning Starfinder so I can go to SPACE 🚀 (but you can also chat with me about #ttrpg in general, or ask about streaming, or whatever -- it's chill vibes)

Oh good, either something I posted breached containment, or there's a new wave of spam follows going on because I've gotten 5 in the last 30 minutes when I normally get one a week or so.

NBC just called it for Mamdani. Hot damn.

For a brief, perfect moment, just before losing the game, I had Possibility Storm, Eye of the Storm, and Knowledge Pool all in play. Just an absolutely unhinged board state.

On here, I think 3. In person or on video calls, maybe a 6.

www.reddit.com/r/RedditEng/... I still spend time thinking about this one, and how big it was.

As usual, Stephanie dropping wisdom. This was a really good one, saying a bunch of stuff that I've been struggling to articulate for myself for a while.

When the killer is calling from inside the house, it's too late and you're pretty fucked.

Heyyyy, are you a privacy-focused engineer? Would you like to probably work with me sometimes? job-boards.greenhouse.io/reddit/jobs/... We have two spots open for this role, and gee whiz would I like to see them filled.

Just discovered that an old buddy of mine up and died earlier this year, and I didn't know it. Life is just so fleeting, man.
