I didn't know before that you could be completely sappy with someone and not even feel the slightest cringe

Remembering the time I briefly dated a guy who worked at Palantir and took me their for dinner dates and also tried to convince me to apply for a job there. In retrospect, "works for Palantir" should have been enough of a red flag

I do feel relief for cities when ICE operations are suspended (if they really are suspended) but the thing with an organization like ICE is that as long as it exists, it will be deployed, which is why abolishing ICE is the only answer.

The surprise at the end of Cabel's talk was a personal highlight of 12 years of running XOXO, a secret quietly hiding on stage for the entire festival. Nobody knew what was coming but @cabel.panic.com, @andymcmillan.com, me, and venue/event staff. It was a surprise even to all the other speakers.
over a year ago, i gave a talk at the xoxo conference about a mural, a mcdonald’s, and a man. (but it was also secretly about life, and legacy, and meaning.)

finally, i’m blogging the full story, with behind-the-scenes details, and a video of the talk.

Looked up how to treat autistic burnout but I don't like the answers

Being trans is weird because you'll watch something from your childhood or featuring an actor you used to really like, and you'll realize how this person or bit of media was actually part of how you were trans and didn't know it

I logged into Steam on my phone for the first time in years and now I'm getting surprised by notifications about games I wishlisted at least a decade ago that I had completely forgotten

I didn't realize when I was writing those books that my protagonist's ability to see spirits was a stand in for autism but I can't unsee it now

BEFORE SEEING KRULL: all anyone seems to talk about from that movie is the glaive

JUST AFTER SEEING KRULL: i mean that wasn't great, but it was fun. certainly more to it than one gimmick weapon!

TWO WEEKS AFTER SEEING KRULL: i mean, i remember the glaive

I know what a weirdo I sound like when I say shit like “have you read the Yale study on erosion of antitrust laws and its relation to completely flip flopping on what the function of consumer convenience means to a functioning market?”

But here I am, weirdo supreme.

Seriously tho, check it out!

gentle advice for fellow indies: if you want people to check out your work, you need to put a link for people to go check it out

if you ran out of space and it's in the reply, that's fine, but it needs to be somewhere that doesn't require someone going elsewhere to click a link
