Thank you.

Sometimes I’ll be going about my day and I’ll remember
Somehow we have a president whose acting like a dictator and we’re all just going about our days.
This man is in the Epstein files and has done so many illegal things openly we can’t even track them.
Like, once again, what the fuck

As a neurodivergent person in tech let me make one point here:
Alex Karp is a fascist and misogynist who wants you to be comfortable with the same thinking Nazis had about neurodivergence.
He can fuck right off.

Most of the time now I feel I have to be numb to the horrible things happening in my country.
Numb enough to see it and know it without falling apart.
Not so numb as to ignore it, to do everything in my power to stop it.
But then some days I feel it all, and it hollows me out, like today.

Reject the pull of hype and rage cycles, protect your attention
Read a book, bake a tasty treat, go on a little walk, snuggle a cat or dog
I believe in you

I mean honestly I think Thiel would know about the antichrist.
Seeing as it’s him.

2026-03-17 03:30:18 UTC

Peter Thiel wanting to debate with the pope about the antichrist is pretty much typical for what I’d expect of a tech billionaire.

“Amazon holds engineering meeting following AI-related outages
The online retail giant said there had been a ‘trend of incidents’ in recent months, characterised by a ‘high blast radius’ and "Gen-AI assisted changes"
We’ve been saying this for years, Gen AI is not a reliable engineering tool! 🥲

Hey prediction markets are just insider trading for elected officials and you will always lose hope this helps

2026-03-10 00:30:23 UTC

All I’ll say is I’ve left MySpace, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.
I’ll happily abandon any platform if you’re enshittifying it 👹

disassociation is better than association anyways guys

2026-02-03 22:00:22 UTC

Today I read a headline about ICE tear-gassing children.
Then, almost instantly, I got a work ping that needed attention.
That’s the pattern: witnessing something so destabilizing it shakes my faith in humanity then being asked to continue on as if nothing happened.
Without pause. Indefinitely.

I’m sorry so like, looking at the released files today seems to irrefutably prove Trump is a pedophile, not just like maybe, but is.
Am I actually reading this right? Like someone tell me I’m wrong here.
We for sure see this right? And he’s just gonna…stay president?

The average person thinks that people in tech are far right like Musk, or comfortable with oligarchy like Bezos.
But many of us are not, many got into this work to do good, on the PROMISE of good even.
And we know ICE is not good

There is a tension inside tech work right now between the fear of repercussions and the reality that we need to say “stop working with this fascist regime”

Minnesota is not the only place that ICE is terrorizing communities in, today several schools in south Seattle had to go into shelter in place because of ICE

If anyone is waiting for me to respond to an email or send a thing right now please bear with me I am getting my ass kicked lately.
I'm doing my best 🥲

I am in the process of getting a whimsical happy tiger tattooed on my back (yay)
My artist listen to me talk about how cool accessibility is for like an hour.
I just love this stuff…I can’t help it. I think it’s neat!

My partner has helped me realize that yes, even in days like today, you can feel a little better with a little care.
Yes, fight back. But also nourish, replenish.
Look at a plant, pet an animal, drink a warm thing, read, love and be loved.
Also damn it why is my partner always right.
