Former tech journalist of 20+ years - still dealing with that trauma in therapy, here now for the shitposts and wry observations on life, mostly NSFW. Definitely not for minors, of interest to miners, or relevant to mynahs either. Dare to be stupid.

Finding Wensleydale cheese at the supermarket turns me into Wallace.

Early in my career I did tech support for a software company that made a Mac search engine product that worked similarly to Apple's Spotlight search feature. One of the customers I helped was a linguistics professor whose specialty was collecting swears and cursewords in every language.

He published his own periodical documenting his findings, and he was grateful enough for my assistance to subscribe me to it.

It was WILD.

Just scored tickets for SATCHVAI's Boston concert later this month, with Animals as Leaders opening (free, through do617.com's DoMORE subscription service). Should be a scorching night of prog metal at the Leader Bank Pavilion! Hopefully the weather will cooperate.

Colman Domingo in Basquiat and Janelle Monaé in Siriano at the Met Gala were just 🔥 💀

By me: I'm suing the U.S. government under the Freedom of Information Act.

Client came in wearing a scent I'd never smelled before; I asked her what she was wearing and she said it was Thierry Mugler Angel, which she noted she'd worn for years (apparently it debuted in the early 90s). "Featuring notes of patchouli, praline, vanilla, and bergamot," according to reviews.

It's interesting to me when the right person wears the right scent and you immediately react to it. It happens so very rarely.
