Author, animal lover, tree-hugging, environment-loving grandma still processing how the 200 yr old Great American Experiment was dismantled in less than 40 years. NO DMs, adverts, fund requests, etc.

Ever wonder how, in a place where Dorothy had to walk a bazillion miles alone to Oz, the wizard got that sweet set up with microphones, sound effects, smoke machines, projectors and electricity?

Every co-worker who hears I'm about to retire starts talking like my mother trying to convince 8-year-old-me that my cousin MaryEllen-Marie's birthday party is going to be "so much fun."

Old enough to remember when this would be called strong-arming for permission to cheat. F*ck that. Ain't happy? Ain't "fulfilled"? Want to look somewhere else instead of working on a marriage? Don't let the doorknob hit ya in the ass. www.huffpost.com/entry/poly-u...

Ya, so I got an email from Netflix with their new "ad free" charges, threw a tantrum and cancelled them. If I wanna watch ads about vaginal odor or injectable weight loss meds, I can do that for free I'm sick of corporate greed.

Firmly convinced NextDoor was created: 1. So paranoid people can post "Did anybody hear that bang?!" at least 3x a day 2. For begging ("I'm embarrassed to post this, but...") 3. As a place for people to dump their unwanted/buyer's remorse animals on the unsuspecting

Old enough to remember -when planes had first class and "everybody else" -when everybody else over 100 lbs had enough room to sit in their seat without contortion skills -when airlines treated customers like guests instead of diseased sheep Just sayin'

Once again, Republicans have dragged long-retired Bill and Hillary Clinton to their bogus "secret" hearing, and once again, they've been indulged. And, once again, Republicans have been embarrassed.

All these companies laying off workers because they're relying on AI are going to experience a big, steaming shitstorm in 6 months or so. I've seen it happen firsthand. Why? Because AI is NOT reliable.
