Happy Friday, bluesky friends! Are any of y'all out there in the tech world looking for a senior dev/software engineer? Preferably fully remote, but we are in Apex, so some local-to-the-Triangle in-office time would prob be okay...? Putting out some feelers for my other half. 👨🏼💻❤️

Had to walk out to the car in the rain after trivia, and was trying to figure out how to protect my hearing aid. J immediately offered his hat, which I took...but I had to put it on sideways so the brim was over the processor. Like this, but significantly less cool. 😅
Robin Williams Says Wazzup?
Alt: Robin Williams in the birthday party scene from Mrs. Doubtfire. He's wearing a red plaid shirt and a sideways baseball cap, and is laughing as he says: Wazzup? He looks ridiculous, but it's very charming and funny, because he's Robin Williams. I'm pretty sure my look was just ridiculous.

I definitely worked way too hard on my trip, and am physically paying for it today. But I also got to do some things I haven't done in a long time, including some things I'd forgotten that I'm actually really good at. So all my muscles are angry and tight, but my mind is happy and quiet. 🥰
Actually, this seat was pretty good and chill. Not a lot of bathroom traffic, and kind of quiet because I wasn't in a sea of people. A little cramped getting my backpack under the seat, but otherwise totally fine. And Chicken + Beer was happy to box up my order to go, so everything worked out.👍🏼
Womp womp. I've had pretty good luck with the seat lottery on my few flights, so I guess it balances out. And it could be worse. At least it's the aisle. 🤷🏼 How long does it take to board a plane that size? (By which, I mean, how long do I actually have to eat my food?)

I was so pleased with my perfectly reasonably sized dinner portions, I ordered dessert to go... And then let out a very audible "Oh my God...?!" when I picked up the bag, because it was so heavy. No banana, because I'm out, but I have a banana bag, so that's the scale here.
I present to you: A very large cucumber from my uncle's garden (I think?).
All my trans siblings; I know shit is rough? But I beg you...live out of pure spite. Outlive these geriatric morons and live. Not just survive. We all deserve better, but y'all absolutely deserve to flourish. Love y'all.
Ah, yes, of course the tunnel has a lane closed and is jamming everything up at 9:30pm for no apparent reason... Thanks for the warm welcome back, Hampton Roads. 🙄
Sometimes you just need to get out of town and speed run a different city. I'm probably more than slightly dehydrated, sore from dancing, and now full of biscuits and coffee. 😂 Thanks for an awesome time, Charlotte! 👑 🤘🏼
"Tulsky was born in Philadelphia, growing up a sports fan. He'd watch Mike Schmidt and the Phillies at The Vet and still lets an occasional "Go Birds!" slip out during NFL season." Congratulation to Eagles fan / analytics nerd Eric Tulsky on his first Stanley Cup. www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/...

Stanley Cup Champion, Andrei Svechnikov!!! Alt text: Canes forward Andrei Svechnikov, in his slight unruly playoff beard, lifting the freshly polished Stanley Cup over his head and gazing up at it.
Apparently no one is posting pics of Svech with the cup yet, and I didn't get one, so I guess I'll be insufferable about it tomorrow. but until then... ANDREI SVECHNIKOV IS A STANLEY CUP CHAMPION!!! ❤️
Andrei Svechnikov Blow A Kiss

Omg! 🥹 Some alt text: A close up of Seth Jarvis on the ice, post Stanley Cup win. He is surrounded by several of his best friends from Winnipeg, who are embracing him and yelling in joy close to his face. Seth looks overwhelmed and overjoyed, and like his face has never smiled that hard before.
Winning the #StanleyCup with your best friends >>> 🤍
