I have no idea why anyone without an actual store would give Google access to all their content, especially fresh content.

Other than work stuff, I've moved my creative endeavors off the web.

@zoomar I guess this is why I haven't seen you around these parts lately😥

Does anybody have a good term to describe people you used to respect who turned out to be horrible? Like Steven Pinker, J.K. Rowling, Richard Dawkins. It's like a milkshake duck but more consequential and even more disappointing

@laurahelmuth Nothing that general but when I went to grad school I had the choice between studying with Pinker at MIT or going somewhere else, and I chose somewhere else (despite how wrong that decision probably seemed to the average observer), so in my mind he's the literal personification of "dodged a bullet"

I wish humans had a brain reboot button for those times when you are having RAM problems or a performance issue with your CPU.

@zoomar I wish I could install more memory

    @zoomar lol I don't know if this counts but I'm apparently very good at liking products that will fail - all sorts of things, foods, shampoo, etc. if I really love it, they will probably stop making it. I used to say I should hire myself out as a consultant, companies could test products on me and if I and say I love the thing want to buy it for the rest of my life, reconsider introducing it because it will be a flop😥

    wombatarama,
    @wombatarama@mstdn.social avatar

    @zoomar oh no! don't worry, it only seems to work with consumables, I think your products that I love are safe😬 😂

    @FlockOfCats We constantly have the problem in manga lettering that "FLICK" comes out looking like something much more offensive. but "flock"??

    @zoomar I would read this one too, although I'd read the other one first thing and this one later to replace my daily lunchtime reading of Ask a Manager.

    @zoomar Never thought about it that way but you are so right. like, the democratic party would certainly be more effective if it wasn't always trying to be the better person.

    wombatarama,
    @wombatarama@mstdn.social avatar

    @zoomar and sometimes it IS a weakness, like if your opponent isn't fighting fair you're going to lose if all you do is refuse to lower yourself to their level, you know? I wish I'd realized much earlier in life that a lot of people are not fighting fair.

    Just coming back from covid. It's like being Sick Van Winkle. You wake up two weeks later with long hair, a beard, and long fingernails.

    @zoomar oh no! hope you are feeling better quickly.
    while you were sick, Roscoe and Lilly went to Japan again. the last 15 or so photos here are new, if you want to see them https://www.flickr.com/photos/wombatarama/albums/72157674186547524/
