If I take risks at my job, any of the following could occur: •Lacerations •Puncture wounds •First, Second, even Third degree burns (from open flame, heated metal, AND boiling water, simultaneously) •Impact injuries/falls •Concussions •Poisoning •Permanent bodily injury •Death ...I'm a line cook.

If a man told me he takes risks at his job, I would find that relatable before ultimately laughing in his face if he explained he sat at a desk and played with someone else’s money all day.

"Whether they want to admit it or not, many women have always been attracted to bad boys and risk-takers, " said Jordi Hays, a co-host of the technology industry talk show TBPN. "I can't think of any archetype of man that fits that description more today than capital allocators that put it all on the line every day in the markets."

I bought a mandolin cutter because I wanted to try to be healthy and eat more vegetables, and everyone told me to be careful when I used it, to use the guard or even gloves, but I didn’t, and ended up slicing my fingertip It’s fine now, but clearly there’s a lesson here: don’t try to be healthy

The very tedious return of covid lockdown discourse reminded me of this series of pandemic propaganda posters I made during the 2020 "get back to work" push

It is 2006. I am 22. The US is mired in a costly Forever War. A predictable historic market collapse looms. I do not have health insurance. It is 2026. I am 42. The US is mired in a costly Forever War. A predictable historic market collapse looms. I do not have health insurance.

Today, August 4, 2026, is the setting of Ray Bradbury’s short story “There Will Come Soft Rains” about a fully automated house continuing on after the family who lived there and the world around it died in a nuclear blast.

First day at the new job and I found out The Fun Way that their knives are MUCH sharper than the knives at my last kitchen. (still waiting to see if I actually need to get stitches, or just Deal With It.) but, I got a sexy new book to bleed I mean read through.

The hardcover special edition of Blades '68, fresh out of the plastic wrap.A slight angle, showing the front cover and the spine. It's a fairly hefty book. Oh lawd, she thicc.

Every now and then someone takes a run at me along the lines of "I don't understand why you, a scifi writer, don't appreciate 'AI'," and I'm all, motherfucker, it's *because* I'm a science fiction writer I have the positions I have, how many times do we have to fucking yell "torment nexus," my dude

here's a fun lil exercise for cis people: how many articles would a publication have to print calling for your extermination before you would expect people who care about you to stop giving them money? and how would you feel if their excuse for still supporting them is some fuckass crossword puzzle?
