But I'm rabbit-holing.
All gender is performance, but men who are anxious about adequately performing as masculine seem easy to spot - they read to me as having a deep, insecure need to be perceived as masculine.
And a cowboy with a pug named Princess under one arm always reads as "manlier" to me.

It is the most beautiful thing I have seen this holiday.
(Creemee is a local thing. It is more or less soft serve ice cream with a bit more fat content)

It is pretty clear that there is more than enough demand for white male writers to write pieces about how hard it is to be a white dude in every possible context.

My brothers are now loudly(and not entirely soberly) arguing over the quality of one brother’s button collection and its value in shirt repair, with the objecting opinion being that these buttons are not nice ENOUGH, and there is now a threat/promise of future button gifts.

It is ALWAYS a mechanical turk, it is ALWAYS human beings being pressured to do more work for less wages. Every single goddamn time.
MIT’s NANDA initiative found that 95% of generative AI deployments fail after interviewing 150 execs, surveying 350 workers, and analyzing 300 projects. The real “productivity gains” seem to come from layoffs and squeezing more work from fewer people not AI.
MIT report: 95% of generative AI pilots at companies are failing
There’s a stark difference in success rates between companies that purchase AI tools from vendors and those that build them internally.

"Pausing local new taxes in the Portland area"
Chat, do you think overriding the will of the voters in the biggest city in your state is a good re-election strategy? Asking for a governor.

Cutting property taxes for Oregonians affected by wildfires. Canceling planned freeway tolls. Pausing local new taxes in the Portland area. We have to keep going to make life more affordable for Oregonians.
