Highly skilled creator of chaos. Professional software engineer. Very casual horologist, astronomer, photographer, data miner, and mathematician. Chaotic good, INTP-A.
I'd like to take this opportunity to apologize to the lady I followed on to the train this morning.

You seemed nervous, and looking back on it, I can that my initial hurrying to the train didn't help that.

I'm going to try and do better in the future.

In today's Dose Of Humanism @americanhumanist.bsky.social says:

"Self-care doesn't have to be selfish. By maintaining your own well-being, you remain a stable anchor for the people who rely on you."

Contrary to the admin's beliefs his man considers therapy just as important as the cardiologist

13 conservative Christians.

0 Muslims. 0 Hindus. 0 atheists.

Meetings dominated by Christian Nationalism.

This is the Trump administration's "Religious Liberty Commission."

A new lawsuit says it violates federal law.

Today marks 110 years since lawyer and activist Flo Kennedy was born in Kansas City, MO. Though she died in 2000, the slogan she popularized with Gloria Steinem still lives on.

Jocelyn recently released a track (XTC) that brought this from the distant memories of many very happy nights in 'The Club at Firestone' in Orlando. I *loved* the place

They were the days when the music was loud and the beer was free.

Today's "little joy" was using public transport to get to work.

I can make 50% of my commute on the train and today, door to door, the train was ~10min quicker than the drive yesterday.

Only repeatable measurements will tell about time savings, but the reduced stress is worth a million bucks.

Reminiscent of the 90min long "W" curves we would see in the numbers of "simultaneous connected users" playing FIFA during the world cup.

The closer you got to the final match, the steeper the edges got.

Didn't really notice it happen on Madden.

"Trump accounts"

Don't count on it kids, he has "history".

I'd like to reference the *6* bankruptcies.

I prompted for "Female vocal trance from the last 15 years." and the resulting playlist had this track in it.

TBH, I'm really feeling the messaging this afternoon.

Welp, it's Saturday again, and because I try to only post #catsofbluesky #photos I took on #caturday, I've had a couple of weeks where I've not had the opportunity. So here's two, one after a game of find Olivia. 🐈😻

Don't get me wrong, I have taken lots of pictures, just rarely on a Saturday.
