Phone rings

I’m doing the dishes and my hands are wet

I’m sitting on the toilet

I’m in an online game

I just got the baby to sleep

I’m pipetting a solution

I’m with a customer

My hands are covered in engine grease

I’m meditating

I’m on my bicycle

I have gloves on

I’m carrying heavy furniture

I’m driving

I’m swimming at the pool

I’m in the middle of a set

I’m trying to put out a grease fire on the stove

Sure, I can ignore the phone, but it’s loud and distracting.

It’s like when you’re having a conversation on autopilot.

“Mum, can I play with my frisbee?” Sure, honey. “Mum, can I have an ice cream from the fridge?” Sure can. “Mum, can I invade Poland?” Absolutely, whatever you want.

The belief that it’ll stay cheap and they won’t make money

RATM, Ignea

Ignea is the Ukrainian band that made the burning of Alexandria homoerotic

The brain inside your head. If you use that instead, you’ll get to be proud of your work. Plus, it won’t consume massive amounts of fossil fuels.

Squeals with joy

Gen AI stinks.
