I'm going to start carrying a flask with me to all of my press events (in person and virtual) so I can take a shot every time someone one stage says "work...AND play." I figure my liver will give out around mid-March.

I used to be one of those “chat with the ride share driver” guys but I have very much grown out of that.
I have had a FedEx package attempt to be delivered 3 times with nary a FedEx truck showing up. That's usually FedEx code for "We lost your package" but I need to wait another week to be sure.

Joanna Stern@joannastern.bsky.social · 2y agoGreat work from Gemini today. I don't have a daughter—and certainly not one participating in a science fair. And it refuses to find the typos in my document. Believe me, they’re in there.

As a writer, I'm constantly amazed that my job is to write things down and people actually pay me to do it. As an editor, I see how some other people write and yeah, ok that makes sense now... 👿

Ok Bluesky, I'll give you another chance, but there better be puppies over here.
