Hi, I'm Brady 🌼

I'm a gay nerd, who weightlifts, and I work in the games industry.

I collect handheld games, 3D Print, and I DM [your favorite TTRPG here].

I like socializing in queer spaces, though usually online.

If you try and come for any of my lgbtq siblings for who they are. It's over.

Low level and mid level positions are where you build up into senior level talent. Allow space for someone to learn, while paying them!

Sure, it'll take me time to spin up SQL queries, but guess what? I'm already finding ways to use it the engineers forgot about! Because I have those fresh eyes.

It reminded me of an earlier conversation I heard about AI poisoning workplaces. Specifically as AI "fills the gaps" it becomes impossible to apprenticeship in anything.

If there's no room to be bad at something and get paid for it, where will we get people who are good those things in the future!

I carefully explained that I can't just "review its output" without having any competency in what it's creating to begin with. I cannot see the slop or hallucinations if I haven't learned this myself first.

He agreed with me! It would be a bad idea to use those tools without prior knowledge. Lol

A programmer I work with was trying to encourage me to swap to using AI instead of going through all the frustrations trying to learn SQL querying at work. Not worth all the hassle and pain. Just AI it and review its output!

10 years regularly going to the gym and I still go:

"phew boy, this machine *gestures vaguely* phew boy really hits here *gestures vaguely* wicked hard"

I know the machine, I know the muscle groups. But that mid workout brain does not words well

Me, lovingly scrolling through all my incredibly talented friends work, and art, in awe and inspired by what they do on the daily:

"Man where the hell is that shitpost I need"

Still cute.

Lower body has been falling behind since I was instructed to stop deadlifts and squats. Trainers got me on a deadlift machine for the first time today. It's weird, but also not causing issues. Please lord let that stay consistent I need to build up my legs somehow.

16s are not normal! It's completely reasonable to be wiped after even 1 of em. You've done several in recent history!

Brady @shatteredshamrock.bsky.social · 13d

Hey game? Stfu.

Imo, they need to decrease the rate of shinies if they're going to have all pokes visible on the field. I'm like 2 hours in.

(Totally get if peeps disagree with me, it's such a minor thing)

Cute buff guys at the gym talking about TCGs while they workout.
