<p>This is me.<br />I'm here. <br />Reformed/reforming "both sides" sort of irritant. Not that I've given up on nuance. But by god it's been abused and am trying not to fuel that bs.</p><p>I'll click follow to profiles that pique my interest, but may then unfollow later. Do the same to me. It works.</p><p>Posts set to self-destruct in a few days - these interactions are ephemeral. That's not an excuse to be rude, just a reflection on the moment.<br />I'm a work in progress. Always will be.</p>

I&#39;m on a winter break, staying in a semi-alpine campsite. A group of 20 or so young adults has just arrived to stay in the cabins. This is either a church youth camp, or the scene for a horror movie. I&#39;m really hoping to see Jason Voorhees this evening

All these AI companies and their claims a &quot;rogue model&quot; snuck out of the sandpit and hacked another site, but then just shrug with &quot;hey - shucks - what can you do?&quot; like being outsmarted by a word salad generator is going to inspire investors. But hey - shucks - what can you do about it?

@EdCates@mastodon.social I normally agree with this, but 6 weeks ago I found myself next to a woman describing in great detail how her daughter had come off a seabiscuit and landed on the boat propellor - coming back into shore trying to hold her stomach together and ending up needing copious stitches. I'll be honest, I was rivetted. And what got me most was the line "no, not like last time with Mary* - they hadn't been drinking." We were like "last time"??? *name...

&quot;Conversion *practice* is a death sentence&quot; It doesn&#39;t deserve the implication of therapeutic value that its marketers want us to give it by using their words.

Today&#39;s reflection: When emailing someone highlighting that I&#39;m asking something of them as &quot;I&#39;m getting a bit of heat from my boss...&quot; it&#39;s really really important to proofread and ensure I didn&#39;t type &quot;head&quot; instead of &quot;heat&quot;. #Typo #CareerLimitingMoves #WorkplaceRelations #TrueStories

https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/national/592076/toilet-user-charges-to-be-reinstated-at-tekapo-public-loos Three days ago the headline was about how to address the problem of visitors to Tekapo using the bushes/landscape as a toilet. Today&#39;s solution - introduce a charge to use the public toilets in Tekapo. Great brains trust working on that solution.
