Reading on recommendation of therapist

If you want to see classic blue voter NIMBYs come to Falls Church. Instructions for our swim meet this morning sent by the club.

If it was India modi would have personally escorted the Hindujas to a slave market and let them have their fill as long as his ass was stuffed with money. And then his bhakts would defend that also. Good job Switzerland for jailing these motherfuckers. The whole story is so so so painful. One of the richest families in the world treating their staff like that ooof. Money definitely doesn’t build character.

Beyond the obvious choice of not enabling and arming the terrorist state? Got it. For once I would like Biden to say fuck you and just let them deal with it themselves. Let’s see how long they can even last without America.

But of course we plan a trip to the alps and now they had such crazy rain and storms that it’s caused landslides and floods in multiple mountain towns including some that we have hotel reservations and bookings. Hopefully they recover quickly! Brings back memories of Chile trip that I had half booked already before earthquake struck there.

Its hard to take micro.blog seriously as a platform if publishing even the most basic post takes 5-10 seconds in 2024. A post of mine has not even appeared and is still in “publishing latest changes to your blog…” lol.

We got lucky on the highway from hell, also known as capital beltway on way back from Annapolis. Usually Friday afternoon at this time is always going to be a complete mess, but got lucky and we were home in an hour or so!

Welcome Summer. May you stay forever!

Dad off to Austin for the weekend means wife gets to sleep in and take a break from the cooking! I get a break from … myself!

Oh wow a local city girl who is a senior at the high school just swam the 200m breast finals at the swim trials and came 6th. Now the kid won’t stop talking about her - thank god she is passing out before the kid joins otherwise we would not hear end of it! Great stuff though - had no idea a local girl had qualified!

A mid morning test at doctors with fasting is the worst way to start the day. I am hungry and cranky and I need my sugar now!

There aren’t two more stupidier people in Georgia than Nathan Wade and Fani Willis. Talk about making a complete fucking joke of themselves. Surely Fani deserved better but my goodness how fucking stupid could you’ve been.

The climate terrorists should have really gone full Taliban and broken the Stonehenge, the world class grade f dumb fucking idiots that they are. Jail them all.

I dunno Sandra Bullock can find her way home not sure about George Clooney.

I can’t wait for the day when all these GenAI chat bots will force you to watch a 15 second ad before answering your goddamn question. Coz how else are these fancy bots going to make any money?

Absolutely loving the heat out there. I am sure I would hate it if half a year is like this but hey I will take an entire summer of this!

Apple suspends Vision Pro 2 it seems. If only they had a compelling vision for the product at a price point that made some sense….

Remember the time when Elon Musk fired 80% of Twitter and everyone thought Twitter was going to go down any minute? Remember all the nonsense stories about how it was on a brink of complete collapse (technically) and the service would go down in matter of weeks? Surprise (or not to many including me), nothing like that remotely happened. Instead, the twitter as a service has remained pretty stable throughout, and they’ve actually added features than remove. Now yes it has become a cesspool of right wing shit hole, but its beside the point. Technically the platform has stayed pretty solid and is still catering to scale.

Its a clear example of whats ailing all tech companies these days. All major tech companies over-hired post pandemic only to realize that they don’t need that many people at all. If the likes of amazon, google, msft, or other tech companies were to lay off more than 50% of their work-force, there would be absolutely ZERO impact to any of the products and services owned by these companies. Thats the hard fucking truth that nobody wants to accept, but its true.

Erin Gemmel qualifies along with her hero Ledecky for Olympics and now I won’t stop hearing about her from the kid coz she will now want to make another club poster for her too.
