Don’t misspell stuff or be Donald Trump. Or Elon Musk. What a putz.
Thanks again to everyone who has responded, boosted, etc. it means a lot to me.
To those of you who have boosted or favorited my previous post: That’s very kind, and I appreciate it. Thanks.

Total shot in the dark, here, but does anyone out there know of a company that could use a seasoned technical writer?

I’m open to other stuff, too.

Thank you. We now return you to your regular programming.

The Dipshit Paradox says:

"Good faith requires positive assumption of awareness, intention, and sincerity on the part of another—yet some arguments are so untethered to reality that assuming good intention means assuming unawareness, while assuming awareness means assuming insincerity and bad intent."

Sorry to keep going on about Elon — not why I came here — but I’m gonna: Today he called working from home ”morally wrong.” Back to the office, chuds!

Ever been to Tesla? Desks areas are maybe 4 feet wide, often in double rows of 10, face to face. No privacy or personal space. And not all colleagues bathe.

If you’re lucky, your workstation won’t be mistaken for a “hotel desk” that people feel entitled to take over and mess with your chair and papers.

Come back! You’ll be glad you did! Whee!

Based on Musk’s Soros tweet… hmm… see, I’m trying to figure out how to sue him for discrimination… ‘cause really, I just wanna retire, as opposed to having a real ax to grind.

Plus, the SOB still owes me $7,500, which I could really use.

Creep. (Him.)

Looks like ol’ Elon went to town on George Soros today. Before I even bring up the whole “‘Soros’ means ‘The Jews’” dog whistle that’s so popular with the MAGA crowd, I’ll mention that in my three-person group in my department at Tesla, two of us were Jewish (well, we still are…), and we’re the ones who were laid off. They kept the non-Jewish person.

Ruin Your Eyes

A far less specific site than <i>EEEEEE!,</i> which focused almost entirely on baseball and the San Francisco Giants. I still love those things... but I sort of out-EEEEEE!’ed myself, so now I choose to write about whatever comes to mind on any topic, if it’s all the same to you.

Apropos of absolutely nothing, today I had occasion to tell Twitter about the link below, leading to the impulse to tell Mastadon users who might be interested in Patrick McGoohan’s iconic ’60s TV program “The Prisoner.”

It’s entirely free, should you wanna take a look.

I’m sorry @[email protected] feels threatened by third-part yTwitter clients that improve the whole experience. Sadly, I expect the interface of the official app to continue to slurp because Twitter’s CEO long ago conquered any fear of putting out defective products.
