Ana With 1 N

Absolutely no one asked for my take on Timothée but I think he was saying he only wants to do boring mainstream shit that makes a ton of money. Not to appropriate a white lady podcaster but LET HIM. Put the boy in a Marvel movie and let that be all he can do for the rest of his career.

The thing about all these freak AI execs constantly going "our machine may have gained sentience?!" is that they want slaves. That they are ok with slave labor.

And *then* it always, always turns out their latest AI trick actually used slave labor somewhere in the global south.

They're slavers.

Freak Out

I liked this track so much I went to follow the band and discovered I have hit like on NINE of their songs in the last couple of years? What the heck? I guess I am a stealth Ripe fan and will be looking for a show to attend.

Put the Message in the Box

Should I do a new release tour despite all evidence that no one gives a shit? Doesn’t actually matter if you think I should because there is a new cover of one of my all-time favorite songs and I’m excited about it.

If I made a new dating app profile I’d specify I’m looking for Chris Fleming energy.

Not doing apps again, at least not now, but I remain obsessed with him

Dudes are really gonna come to an office women’s history event watch party and sit in the back row and talk

Remember how I was waiting for my feelings to punch me in the neck?

Well of course it happened while I’m at the office 🙃

While I’m posting—scenes from a fun night @ the Funk n Dive in Ogden. Sammy Brue, in the dark hat, has a phenomenal new album, The Journals, spawned from writings of Justin Townes Earle, with whom he toured before Justin died. Also check out Andrew Wiscombe (white hat)—so clever and fun.

I’m waiting out a little storm. It feels and smells like spring rain, not winter rain. I know we needed a winter but I think maybe it’s time to face it that we’re just not getting one. And this is beautiful.

I’m having such a weird week. I don’t know where my feelings are. I think they are lurking some waiting to punch me in the neck. Wonder when that will happen.

Thank you, Bluesky. Will you all please try to take very good care of yourselves? I would like to not lose any more friends for a good long time. 😭

Not 52. 30. Two years and four months. My brain is tired.

My friend Emily died this morning from sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma. We fought that bastard of a disease for 52 months & had some damn good times during the fight.
Em was teaching in Ukraine & fled just before the invasion 4 years ago. I hope she’s haunting the fuck out of Putin right now.

Diplomatic advice for my 9am meeting with Canadian co-workers tomorrow, ready set go

I think that might be it. I can be down with campy and silly and all kinds of stuff but it really is boring!

I think we all have a legit bad episode (or a few) close to our hearts … this one just isn’t it for me!

SO GOOD. I have deep regret about missing the most recent Red Rocks show (many times closer than MSG for me). Next time!!!

I’ve put on a Vulfpeck playlist to accompany the doing of dishes. Bc my 26yo autistic son is visiting me for a few weeks and he loves to cook. I love him so much and I’m so tired.

Also he’s sleeping in my room and I’m bunking with my daughter so that’s… a lot.

6 more days! Boo! yay!

Move Along Home. Even though DS9 is my favorite series.

I had been using the same prompt and returning reliable information almost every day for the last several weeks. Made only a couple of minor tweaks to it today and it just went full on imaginary mode. A warning to us all. The robots can turn on us at any time. /end

I am required, REQUIRED to use Copilot at work and today Researcher shit the bed, hallucinating three major procurement opportunities that do not exist & causing me to panic. Thankfully I only shared this extremely bad information with two people before I figured out it was all pretend.+

Those muses 🔥🔥🔥

Text exchange Green: Just keep making contacts something is gonna work out Gray: Fax no printer Green: What?? Gray: Facts 😂😂 Agreeing with you Green: Hah ok Gray: Whipper snapper lingo Gray: Me over here ready to tell you to go to the library to print things and to the ups store to send a fax Gray: Hahaha I love you mama

Chatting with my Gen Z kid who has been looking for housing … funny, seems like I really am getting old 😂

He found a place today!!!

Proof I’ve left the house @srslymagenta.bsky.social … somebody invited me to a Mardi Gras thing at a brewery and I made myself say yes

😂
It has to be better than dating apps? Idk it’s just a theory at this point

Right now my position is, I’m not doing those apps anymore. I’m trying to leave my house more and meet people in the wild.
Starting soon, I swear.

No seriously I’ve been to a coffee shop shop like three times this year! 🙃

I think at least half of it is that THEY’RE not better. More likely more than half.

Screenshot of a text saying “UTAH ALERT! Warning: Be careful about people asking for your information about petition signatures. We have received reports these paid canvassers work for a firm under criminal investigation in another state. Don't give them your information, just say NO!” The fine print states that this is paid for by the RNC and authorized by Utahns for Representative Government.

Why are #Utah Republicans sending this text when they are the ones doing the exact thing that they’re warning about?

I’m genuinely confused.
