I’m reading Dark Matter & fascinated/confused by the explanation of Schrodinger’s cat theory? Like it makes sense that there are an infinite number of *future* possibilities (cat has equal future potential of being dead/alive), & the *future* gets locked in at the moment when someone observes it

My 8yo was pretending to be a cop and I was a villain. Once he caught me, he asked for my consent to arrest me. I politely declined. He said “aww, okay” and moved on.

Someone saw a post that I wrote about how inauthentic AI messages are and sent me an inauthentic message written by AI that opens with a reference to said post, asking for my business 🥀

People mispronounce and misspell my name all the time, so when someone asks for my name at a restaurant or Starbucks or whatever I just give them my nickname (Dai) But now I have them spell it phonetically bc one time someone yelled “DIE!!! 💀🔪” instead of “Day ☀️🌺” at me and I jumped sooo high 😅

My 8yo niece went to a bday party she was NOT invited to (it was my son’s bff) at a bowling alley This girl figured out how to hack the score board, adjusted her score to 190, & set all of the boy’s (again, boys she does NOT know) scores to 20-40 Then cackled as she retold the story 😂 So proud 🥹

Food excites me, period. But, pretty food? In a to-go box? Yeah I’m about to Cookie Monster this thang in the parking lot 😂

JIRA giving the comments I wrote yesterday a relative date of “last month” is- why, man? 😭

My mom came by yesterday to bring some food she made me We got on the topic of the roughest year in her young-adult life, and she was like “we have to be grateful that XYZ happened, because you wouldn’t be here if I didn’t go through that” And then she 1/2
