It never ceases to maze me how somehow men assume we women don't have a brain. I was mansplained to at length this afternoon. The gentleman informed me I didn't have basic knowledge about a subject I happen to be very familiar. 🤷♀️. That I need to talk to an expert.

So Orange Man Baby says he is paying for his 250 million dollar ballroom by himself and through donations. On the same day he starts demolition, he demands the DOJ pay him 230 million dollars. Anyone want to bet his private donations add up to 20 million?

Hi, one gripe I have had about socials is that you can only have friends. In real life I have many more relational types than just friend. Can we get an acquaintance category? People/subjects I find interesting but don't necessarily need to see every post. Just a thought 🤔.

I am still here, smiling even, in spite of the constant looming fear of doom. I have been operating in a fog, I can barely concentrate on what I need to do. I haven't felt this much anxiety about life since I put things in motion to come out of the closet.

And dinner is served. I wish we could find better tomatoes in our area so we could have red sauce instead of orange, but it was awesome. It's all gone. 😋💕

Making fresh spaghetti sauce and pasta for dinner. Pasta dough is chillin in the refrigerator. Tomatoes, onion, garlic, and cheese rind in the pot and starting to smell good. Basil will go in, in a bit when puree the tomatoes. 😋.

Picture from yesterday, I had to go get poked by the vampires for lab work 😞. This morning I am just watching the couple of little clouds in the sky float by and praying they turn into some rain 🌧️. I miss rain. First weekend off in I don't know how long and I don't know what to do with myself.

Remembering Descent, the once-popular, fully 3D 6DOF shooter
Descent is a big part of gaming history, but not many people talk about it.

This morning's creation. A Tanzanian spice cake with, chia buttercream frosting, and dark chocolate chips sprinkled on top. I usually do a brown butter frosting with this cake but decided to try something new.

A guy at work was arguing that the latest LLM models can write code they weren’t trained on and gave writing code in brainfuck as an example. I said “did you actually run these in an interpreter to confirm they aren’t bullshitting you”
A few minutes later he goes, “none of them worked, interesting”
