What am I missing here? People are talking about how this attack is going to inspire right wingers to attack those they have grievances against, or inspire mass violence, and I’m confused because is that not the case already?

Yes, every single billionaire is immoral.

If, through some combination of luck, timing, politics, and hard work, you have the means to create a meaningful positive impact in the world, and choose instead to hoard gold like Smaug, you are immoral.
There’s a lot of discourse about CEOs and billionaires right now. It’s hard to have this convo on TikTok but I think Bluesky can handle it with nuance.

Are all billionaires bad?

It makes me so angry that this brilliant exceptionally qualified woman could’ve been our next President yet many people chose a disgusting piece of shit criminal instead.

Remember to always write your ‘WHERE’ clause first. Better yet, only mutate the DB via migrations checked in to VCS.

Woke up, ate a quarter of a pumpkin pie, then went on a 15 mile bike ride.

They deserve each other
I can’t tell you how different it is on X now after so many people have left. I have always followed mostly right-wing accounts because I cover them, and they are running out of people to pick fights with. So they’re just mostly fighting with each other.

Sundays are my long ride days. Since it was raining that meant four hours on the bike trainer. While bicycling outside is still infinitely better, the trainer has a certain peacefulness to it. It’s also cool watching movies and playing games I guess.

I started working on my open source social network platform again, just in time for Bluesky to open up

The Onion would like to congratulate its owner, G/O Media, for standing firm in its return-to-office mandate, as we can think of nowhere more conducive to best-in-class thought leadership than a fluorescent-lit room populated with the abandoned desks of terminated colleagues.

It’s not enough to deplatform, even though we know that works. Rufo’s life has to be so thoroughly ruined that it acts as a warning to others. Conservatives are very open about this, they often say an ideology has to be destroyed by humiliating & crushing its leaders. Let’s do as they suggest.

I once created a custom calendar app for managing content publishing for a large trivia game website.

In my last week working there, after 2.5 years, I was still fixing bugs (the last bug was a once-in-four-years leap year bug).

I just spent two hours writing a yq query and I don’t know how to feel about it. Probably going to need extra therapy next week.

Going to humblebrag for a minute.

I get my flu shot and Covid booster every year, wear a mask on flights and when I’m with large indoor groups for any amount of time, and the last time I was sick was September, 2022.

Totally worth it 1000x times over

A great thing about being a grown up is that you can ignore all the weather warnings and go on a 40 mile bike ride, then end up getting rained out for about 15 miles, losing all feeling in your hands and feet.

5. The National Crime Victimization Surveys from 2007 through 2011 (this report was compiled in 2013) found that ZERO women successfully used a gun to defend themselves from sexual assault.

3. The most common use of a gun isn't just to intimidate, it's to intimidate an intimate partner.

4. The majority of felons who suffered a gunshot wound did not receive it from someone practicing self-defense, they received it from someone committing a crime against them.
