I’m not even Christian but this is so true
Their faith lets them worship power while they’re offended by mercy. It’s not Christianity they’re practicing.

also, hello - if you are trans, non-binary, or otherwise erased by whatever the fuck the US federal government is doing right now, please know that I love you for you and you deserve to be your own self.

It would be funny is someone tried to apply for CEO/vp type jobs using a fake résumé and then using AI to help make all their business decisions

I found Uggi’s favourite toy like this, murdered in what I can only describe as a crime of passion

After a few months taking a break from work, I'm looking for a job again.  Anyone hiring a software engineer with a penchant for low-level stuff?  I'm looking for something remote in the US (or, at the very least, something in the Seattle area).

(Reskeet for reach? Thanks!)

NYT had an interesting opinion article from a student journalist about how breastfeeding can save infant lives globally… and a lot of the comments are about moms defending themselves feeling shamed for not breastfeeding

Is there a Microsoft teams video filter that makes your hair look less greasy?

Welp, I think it’s time for me to replace the MacBook Air (2018) - no one told me how sad it is when it’s time to replace your sticker-bombed laptop 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

vibes are gonna be very off around here from now through inauguration (also forever, but that's a different question). people will be bummed for disparate reasons but will be bummed (the guys who are stoked are NPCs for the purposes of this analysis). It is revolutionary to protect your vibes imo

So I am a certified transit nerd and my cousin is a NYC commuter and we vehemently disagree about the congestion pricing thing. But we still love hanging out and being close friends.

That is the type of politics that friends should be able to disagree on, not like whether trans people can exist.

there’s an incredible 24-hour donut shop near our place that we love to frequent - one of my favorite things about it is that it’s in an old Taco Bell, and all the seating inside is authentic 90’s Taco Bell aesthetics, all purple and teal

I will never not fear the reason my son has short catnaps during the day is because I drank a measly cup of coffee in the morning

even though it’s very developmentally appropriate for him to have sucky naps right now

Me drinking coffee while pumping breast milk feels like I’m making custom caffeinated milkshakes for my son

Part of the fun is we have no idea how caffeinated they are, or exactly when he will drink them. Before a nap? Mixed with his dinner? Who knows!!

My six month old is in size 4 diapers now - we got a box of overnight size 4 diapers at the baby shower, and I just assumed we’d use them in like two years! That’s what happens when you have a 96th percentile baby lol

trying to offer baby more bottles of breast milk - my alleged magic powers of putting the baby to sleep by nursing grows dimmer; time to share the responsibility of making baby sleep!

well, I didn’t think it would happen to me, but it did - the breastfeeding mom flat booty 😭 none of my stretchy pants stay up anymore

for the second night (morning) in a row, my son has been thrust from barely-awake-enough-to-nurse to omg-I’m-so-awake-and-I-want-to-pet-the-cat by a simple “mrph?” by our kindly older cat, Sherman

Simon got a collection of Babar books for Christmas from his tia, and so I wanted to read him the first book tonight - I forgot Babar’s mom gets poached while he’s with her 😭😭😭😭😭

I just remembered the movie Violent Night!! Maybe in a few years I can securely put lil boy to bed and then stay up and watch that and Die Hard.

I think it’s official - my son’s first word was today, and it was “mama” 😭😭😭😭😭
