Grown-up with a car, a job, a library card, an AO3 account, and an increasing number of shelves filled with Kpop albums. I keep my ducks in a row. (She/Her)

Me last night: I think I'm gonna sign up for yuletide, even though I absolutely should not.

Me this morning, once again looking at my project plans for the next two months: ehhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....

Oh, nevermind. I take it back. It's $300/year for four issues. It's just a C-Suite vanity press. Absolutely nobody who isn't already completely high on their own supply of smartest-guys-in-the-room bullshit will ever even see these things.

I just read this entire thing out loud to missi so both of us could lose our minds together. Holy crap, it's time to toss the entire "business content" machine in the fucking ocean.

And this:
92% of the growth in the entire country this year has been data centers. And some of that is "circular deals" that dont involve actual money

fortune.com/2025/10/07/d...

Without data centers, GDP growth was 0.1% in the first half of 2025, Harvard economist says | Fortune

Is a U.S. without data centers a country without GDP growth?

I have to assume the marketing team is filled with the kind of people who screenshot inoffensive but ~uncool texts from their parents to mock with their friends/all of social media. Which is a thing I still can't really believe people do, outlive seen too many of them now...

KatieGeeks @katiegeeks.bsky.social · 4d

oh shit...
