Late-diagnosed ADHD, elder millennial, tired af. LIS, data, and tech in many combinations are cool. I have a tuxedo cat named Darwin and he's the best.

I like things a completely normal amount.

I am once again asking for somebody to pay me a sufficient amount to live on in exchange for my labor.

Things I can do:
* analyze data and tell you what it means
* help your customers/clients
* support your technicals
* write things down/make better words
* improve your processes

Hit me up!

My AI anecdote is that I’m writing a story script for a high profile IP project featuring a virtual assistant and received the note: “don’t use the word ‘AI’ in the script because the word is toxic now, plus people will assume it’s giving bad info or evil.”
my “AI is over” anecdote is that my wife was hired over the summer to write scripts for a big tech company explaining how to use their AI tools and after many rounds of revisions, the latest notes said “we’re finding a lot of AI fatigue among our users” and to remove all references to AI
Anecdotally on twitter seeing a big shift the last few days from every AI slop account saying every other creative field is “over” and they’re in control now to now posting about how nobody likes them and it’s not fair and they’ll persevere and real artists respect and uplift eachother

The right is full of grown-ass adults who are afraid of vaccines, kid's books, and anyone Twitter or OAN tells them to fear, including the entirety of NYC, and NYC is full of people who cheerfully chase federal agents out of the state and then do stunts on Citibikes; you tell ME who's going to win.
The scene now at Lafayette and Howard, diagonal to the ICE garage which activists remain camped out in front of on both sides of the building.

How come reply guys, when called out, always resort to "couldn't resist a joke" or "just a joke"? There's no humor, nothing funny, just being a pest.

I wrote a story about guys being pests, and it starts with "just a joke." It doesn't end with a laugh though. Their interactions never do.

Like dementia, menopause can involve the diminishment of cognitive function. Researchers do not yet know whether this is a coincidence or if a more complex relationship is at work.

My Mother’s Memory Loss, and Mine
When I began forgetting words in midlife, I wondered if it was menopause—and worried that it was something more.

This book has been so soothing. I have probably learned more about the foreign policies that shape the world just in the first three chapters than I have in at least the last 15 years of news media. 🙃 It's helped clarify a lot of the absolutely batshit nonsense of the current timeline. COMFORT READ

Yeah. Before the fall, CK's act—and his fandom—rested on the premise that his worst self wasn't his true self. Now it's the opposite, and that's just not interesting as comedy.
He is just generally an alt-right, unrepentantly racist and transphobic piece of shit. He is also a genuinely bad comedian, much in the way that thin-skinned assholes often are 🤷‍♀️

"Fed is best" also applies to disabled people who live on benefits. Whatever a disabled person is able to consume is okay. We live on so little money, and your critiques of our eating habits are kinda gross. Thanks.

Props to the protestors who the New York Times credits for foiling ICE’s intended raid in Chinatown earlier today.

So many people are showing they know what it means to be New Yorkers!

To clear up any confusion: There is no statute that allows the president to revoke birthright citizenship. There is no statute that authorizes racial profiling. There is no statute that permits the government to use incredible and indiscriminate force.

rich dudes got freakier after butlers fell out of fashion, like say what you will about having domestic servants but clearly it was some sort of moderating force on old rich dudes having a fancy man follow you around saying shit like "oh dear sir, that wouldn't be very becoming"
