Hahahah. It is such a scam.
ICYMI: Microsoft’s charge “implies a more than $12 billion quarterly loss at OpenAI, said Firoz Valliji, an analyst at Bernstein.”
That “would mark one of the largest single-quarter losses for a tech company in history.”

The past three weeks of work have been insanely busy! Started a 11 day holiday this afternoon. I played 9 hours straight of master of magic. (With a break for one tv episode with dinner). I think my brain needed a serious reset! But hey I got a new high score! Looking forward to the holiday now!

And 3 episodes into season 5 of the Rookie and I realised why the lawyer husband looked familiar was because I’d been at a con with his twin brother! The Rookie really is star cops 😂

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.
Here's how to turn it off.
First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

Ok I'm a pretty jaded adult but when I heard Frakes doing the intro my heart did a little flutter.
Seeing how much effort they put into this I really hope we also get a lego star trek video game!

This is incredible! Is this the first time Frakes has done the saga sell?

the minutes of the October meeting between WellBN and SussexICB are chilling. Andrew Dodson from the Sussex side just openly saying patients will be “deprescribed,” that they’ll have no choice and won’t be allowed to talk to the team taking their healthcare away

I have had FOUR meetings today! And in ten minutes I have a library tour. (Thankfully to a very nice bunch of librarians) No AuDHD person should have to talk this much in a single day though!

So happy for New York! It’s wonderful to see a victory for the left which includes condemning genocide and supporting trans people.
It shows people that you don’t have to vote for a centrist copying the far right. We need this repeated everywhere!

A few days after the presidential election one year ago, we went to Fordham Road in the Bronx.
It was a little different last week.

Speaking at the ND panel at my work this afternoon. Sometimes I think the ADHD meds work too well and I’m definitely trying to do too much! Going to need to slow down a little I think.

Doing what is probably considered a Scary Thing and joined work's working group on gender identity. And I think I'm actually making a big difference there. Taking it from the abstract realm of policy into how can they support trans and nonbinary staff. Which is much better.

A finished knitting photo!!! (I’m so behind!) this one was using yarn I bought in 2020 that didn’t look right in st-st but is perfect for a textured pattern. I used the Maema cardigan pattern again but did the stitch over the whole thing. Which made a great texture.
