It's so fucking annoying that the Watch TCM app hasn't worked for two days now on my Fire stick. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app and nothing. Just spins in a circle telling me an error occurred and to retry. 😑

Everyone’s expectations got skewed over the past week but Abdul El-Sayed getting $70 million spent against him in a state he lost a primary by like 20 points eight years ago and still winning last night is probably the most impressive electoral accomplishment of the decade.

I'll start the process. Fuck it. The minimum pay rate is close to what I'm make but it states that it's DOQ and negotiable, so I can probably argue for matching/better. Dallas jobs aren't going great so.... might as well jump ship, stay here, and keep trying on the side at a more leisurely pace.

My boss sent me an internal job posting at a different department for what I do but it's on main campus with two remote days. Hmm.

That's what taxes are, man. That's the definition of taxes. "You are subsidizing things you might never use" man shut the fuck up. My taxes currently subsidize like oil company exec private jets, you think I'm upset at low-income people eating inexpensive bananas?

Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.

I wish I knew why these job rejections sting as much as they do. It's silly in some way, really. I guess it's hitting that very vulnerable "Daddy didn't love me because I wasn't good enough" spot in some way?
