Hiđź‘‹ I'm Jesse and I am a chronically online software engineer. My hobbies are full stack web development, writing, making music, and studying screencraft. Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/jesse_id/ Website: https://www.jesse.id

I don't want to believe we're in a simulation because if we are, we're probably simulating how to mitigate catastrophic climate change with technology, and looking around our political landscape, I'm pretty sure we're not in one of the winning scenarios.

In what case is ignorance the most blissful? I think it's animals not being able to speak. My cat is a terrorist and my dog eats puke without hesitation. I have absolutely no interest in their opinions.

Trying to copy and use a 2FA code in the last 3 seconds before it cycles makes me feel like Jason Bourne.

Spent the last couple of days rewatching The Last Dance. Remains the greatest sports documentary series of all time. I may be biased because I was a huge Bulls fan when I was a kid and watched every single game mentioned in the doc, including the regular season games, in real time. #Now

I hate it when I see AI pictures of dinosaurs because it makes it way harder to find real pictures of dinosaurs.

One of my favorite pastimes is getting myself snagged on the cryptids algorithm in IG reels and commenting on the videos sanely. Been at it for a couple of hours. #Now

I wish I could see some kind of a visualization to confirm which exact scenario led to my reels feed veering wildly into the portal people algorithm.

A lot of my IG reels feed is girls sitting on the floor, criss cross apple sauce, making loops with MIDI controllers. I think I'm old now because I'm mostly just worried about their backs. I don't think anybody would be mad if you got a table.

It's kind of crazy how improbable it was for me to be born at the perfect point in time to witness the convergence of technology and catastrophic climate change. Let's hope this is the simulation where the latter is solved by the former. #Now

My cat is digging her claws into my leg to beg for hard-boiled eggs when we established that she doesn't like them three years ago, and every time that I've had hard-boiled eggs since then. She lives directly in the center of the dumb, cute, and annoying Venn diagram. #Now

Anytime I sell stuff on eBay, I'm just so impressed with how good the USPS is. Cheap shipping, I can print the label, they'll send me free boxes, and then they'll come and just pick them up off of my porch for free? This is what the GOP is trying to destroy? The problem is that it's too good? #Now

I took this week off because I like to stack long holiday weekends with PTO the following week, except I've just been coding all day anyway. Stoking that token bonfire and looking forward to watching USA and Belgium play tonight in the World Cup. #Now

Fun Fact: The probabilies of walking through a wall and pulling pizza rolls out of the oven without an exploded one are roughly the same.

Wedge salad for yourself, at home, kind of makes sense. Wedge salad anywhere else is a hard slap in the face. Thanks for the money, here's your sloppy lettuce brick — eat it with both hands, pig.

Get you someone who's impressed with how many times in a row you can flip a water bottle in the air and catch it
