A peaceful Sunday morning. The house is quiet except for the #cat snoring in his napping spot behind the couch #CatsOfMastodon

Yeah. It’s bonkers times. A direct asked me what he should do to protect his career from AI. I told him to take up plumbing.

But then I wonder if I’m like an engineer insisting there’s no way to do engineering without using a slide rule and calculators are going to ruin the world

Me, getting new car: “keyless entry? What the hell is that about? How hard is it to get out a key?”

Me, a few months later driving an older car: “WTF? I have to get the key out of my pocket. Is this the goddamn dark ages??”

@cainaru there was a Maxwell House commercial that used to reduce my wife to a ball of sob when she was pregnant with our first. I still give her shit about it. :)

It’s not that I _want_ to watch the world burn, but the damn thing’s burning so I’m trying to follow Ted Lasso’s advice to “be curious and not judgmental” and enjoy the show.

Popcorn, anyone?

tinyurl.com/NoRCVBan 👈👈👈 Tell Congress to REJECT a FEDERAL RCV BAN!

As RCV is beginning to see exponential success across the country, House Republicans in the US Congress have introduced the MEGA Act, which includes a provision that would ban RCV in all federal elections. This would be a huge setback for pro-democracy innovation across the US, and it would limit voter choice and power for all Americans, regardless of party affiliation.
