// context: 81k and I have been making a bespoke household todo app, since in the age of AI coding you can just have a productivity app that exactly fits your polycule's needs

81k: when you have the time, can you fix that baby log issue I described in the house chat this morning?

me: I did, it's already up

81k: it – oh! wow that was fast

me: puppygirl gf who whines that she can't do the dishes because she's too demoralized by life but mysteriously is able to push to prod within hours of getting a feature request

if someone who is a reasonably mentally healthy tumblr user at 2000 followers is feeling pissed off and overstimulated all the time at 5000 and wishes they could drop a thousand to take the edge off the problem, it is more virtuous to

go through their followers manually, block the 1000 most culture-war prone ones

both of these are sufficiently deranged that they should just silently suffer

New fun and deeply embarrassing party game I just learned about: give everyone a pencil and paper and tell them to draw a map of Europe.

I inflamed long-simmering ethnic tensions in the Balkans and gave Switzerland a huge new coastline along the Adriatic Sea.

One nice privilege of working for large tech companies is that, as imperfect as the hiring process is, it does a pretty good job guaranteeing a reasonably high floor of intelligence and basic competence. I've had some coworkers who were annoying, some who were inexperienced, some who didn't have the same quality standards I do, and some who didn't see eye-to-eye with me or make decisions the way I would, but since getting real jobs I've actually never had a close coworker—or for that matter a manager— who was genuinely incompetent. This is actually really nice.

I think people who work at Big Tech sometimes don't realize this floor exists and is not universal. I know multiple cases of people who decided to quit tech and go work at a nonprofit or something, out of noble charitable impulse, and ended up going a little crazy because they had incompetent coworkers for the first time and hadn't developed the skills and temperament to handle this.

#yeah... I really noticed this when I started working odd jobs and especially when I started being the point person for a vendor #it was savage. I forget if I literally cried about any of their eight devastating inexplicable fuckups but it was a whole new world #prior to that in tech I never had a bad impression of a coworker. I guess several times I thought one guy could respond more to messages #but he had insane output and was very busy so no hard feelings #sometimes I had a read on who the least competent person was on the team (other than myself) and I still thought they were great

"Toxic yuri" is a very context-dependent term because half the people using it are clearly picturing some sort of subtle psychological warfare and the other half seem to be describing the girl version of whatever is going on between Batman and the Joker.

#oh damn. going by order of my recent f/f fics: lower right (student sexually blackmails depressed teacher); upper left #(NEET's anime figurine comes to life and they learn to live with each other while helping the NEET's dying aunt get assisted suicide)#middle right (lesbian comes back to her hometown and finds her high school rapist is now (1) reformed (2) a pillar of the gay community)#and lower right (competent and perhaps overly ruthless would-be-empress and her catgirl slave who will kill her if she becomes too evil)#to be clear the aunt dying and needing to jump through a bunch of bureaucratic hoops to get her death with dignity is not slapstick #her niece having a secret fairy/giantess lesbian romance with an anime figurine loosely based on Asuka from Evangelion #while all the real life shit is going down #is.

i have been noticing recently that people younger than me are too sensitive, while people older than me are not sensitive enough. which, if i'm correct, should be taken as a sign that the total reality penetration vortex is operating as intended -- within as few as five or six generations we may very well be producing babies who can directly perceive the wound at the heart of the world

Ok, no snark, no ironic distancing: Obsession is the scariest movie I’ve ever seen. I walked out of the theater shaking and dry-heaving, and I never do that with horror movies.

etirabys

after the movie 81k and I chatted and meditated briefly on my bed. he went to bed thirty minutes ago but the smell of his fear sweat still lingers – it smells different from normal

etirabys

just watched Obsession at the theater, jesus christ. I and 81k came back home and both took anxiety meds (and we are not like this about horror movies normally). incredible experience, would probably advise my past self to spend her evening differently

etirabys

we clutched each other in the theater and when we emerged we tried to exist in minimally scary ways near each other

I tried not to make sudden movements and said I wouldn't say "I love you"

he has a tic where he mutters when stressed, and I was like, you really cannot do that one right now sorry

#rambl #between a transcendentally upsetting experience and writing gay erotica I'd maybe choose erotica.#getting old... it used to be the transcendental beat everything...
