Unfortunately, there are times where there’s no way to “be liked by everyone” and “have healthy boundaries”. Now is the time to be firm with boundaries.

Wishing you luck

2-pi toilet paper…

A few years ago I went back to a browser-based Facebook game called “Starfleet Commander”. It was much more popular in 2007.

It is SUPER dead now, but that didn’t stop me from recently playing for 2-3 years.

Pokemon TCG Pocket!

And also FF6 Pixel Remaster.

Oh for sure, and Chris Rock as the 13th apostle was amazing.

The movie is simultaneously irreverent and filled with surprising reverence and sincerity. I always appreciated Kevin Smith for that.

Grew up Catholic and love this movie to this day.

It was an April Fools joke

I was gonna say… I wouldn’t think NYC’s bank account would be completely inaccessible to the US Treasury.

Does this really have implications for private citizens?

(I’m asking a genuine question, here not supporting Musk/Trump or anyone else. I fuckin hate those assholes.)

Damn, I’m the only one using Mlem?

The original intent is what my understanding was and why I don’t upvote reposts across multiple communities.

Just a few moments ago I upvoted a post that I didn’t “like” because the discourse on it was so good.

…There’s definitely stuff I still hate-downvote tho 😈

Still up to the site itself to decide what is “violating content”. This puts a chilling effect on upvoting and gets Reddit one step further from what it once was.

Absolutely LOVE Strawberry Girls!

First saw them at a concert where they opened for Intervals. Was a great show.

Pretty sus they all passed, but definitely lost a legend in Hackman

About fucking ready to wipe Budget rental car off the face of the earth for the bullshit they gave me about their insurance.

Learned a tough lesson from that one.

Can’t wait for Loops to get big enough to make it onto the list of TikTok alternatives. It’s a good app and just needs more users and a few more features.

Age is also something that matters here. Are you middle-aged yet? I ended up pulling the brakes on my career to get a better work-life balance, but it ended up stunting my career trajectory a bit.

Once I had more free time and realized I wanted to earn more, I had to hustle to get back to a top-of-market position.

In short: there’s always time on the future to pivot to Option B. If there’s more value to extract where you are, milk it for all it’s worth and then exit before it goes south (as all jobs do).

And here I am near the end of the day saying “well fuck, guess I’m working late tonight to deliver this thing I promised.”

I do this to myself…
