I'm finally watching Black Panther. I wonder if SoundCloud paid for product placement in the casino scene.

‘Course, today I didn’t wear a dress since we were going out to Snoqualmie Falls and she was right back to he/himming me.

Finally made it to Snoqualmie Falls.

@Azure I doubt that 1 is true, and 4 seems to be the most likely given that most video “documentation” is just people stumbling through a thing until it works without explanation of what they’re actually doing.

So I’ve been making a bunch of black garlic, which mostly involves running my dehydrator for three weeks. I only started it yesterday and my home smells incredibly of garlic, to the point that I had many weird dreams about garlic last night.

@lifning oh god don't let Charlie Brooker see this toot

Mystery solved.

Every now and then I find something in my mp3 library which makes me wonder how I ended up with it...

and every now and then I find something where I don't care, I just want it gone.

Tonight I went to the symphony with my parents and I wore my new eshakti dress and some jewelry my mom gave me and when my mom saw me she said “you look nice!” And it was hard to not have happy cry and then later on she made a very obvious effort to avoid using pronouns when referring to me and while that’s not ideal it’s a huge improvement even from earlier today and yasssssss

@lifning GDI I love splatoon online because it’s so low-stakes but shitty people can’t even keep from ruining THAT

@joshmillard but the recent revelation that Toadette grows up to become Peach makes it obvious that Peach IS a mushroom person and she just ate the royal jelly.

@NowakVulpix @chuck well he moved the company to a trailer park near the Texas border so I think he was still in charge for a while, at least of his little corporate kingdom.

But sadly I’ve worked for lots of people like this. They’re hard to get away from but at least it feels like their time is running out.

@djsundog this reminds me of a rant I’ve been meaning to write for a long time about the universal hashification of all data structures and how it’s completely screwed up the way programmers think about algorithms.

@chuck @NowakVulpix yeah like he had a serious case of wandering hands, and also a very abusive way of keeping his employees in check. The senior engineers also got away with a lot of stuff thanks to a deep-seated culture of cronyism.

He owned the land the office was on and a few years after I left he decided to sell it and then rent it back from the new owners, who promptly evicted him. I had so much schadenfreude over that :D

@NowakVulpix @chuck oh definitely, I didn’t agree with him on that at all, and it didn’t take long for me to quit.

I mean the dude was skeevy in a lot of ways and I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s been subject to at least a few sexual harassment suits since then.

@chuck @NowakVulpix I mean about it being industry standard, not about it being okay

@chuck @NowakVulpix fortunately this particular ISV is long gone but unfortunately I suspect he may have been right.
