I enjoy spreadsheets a normal amount. Any pronouns are fine; you cannot misgender me in a way that matters.

Love how if I misspell a word the same way often enough, autocorrect starts changing the correct spelling to the misspelling. That’s definitely how this should work and not the precise opposite.

Kinda fucked up that of all the major LLMs, Gemini has by far the most pathetically ineffectual guardrails, but it’s also the only one with a parent company that could legitimately ruin your life if it noticed and decided you’d gone too far.

I feel like this is making a generally accurate point (to get good at something, you must first do the thing) in just about the most off-putting way possible. If you want to get good at art, you have to dedicate years of your life to being bad at art first. That's not an easy or trivial thing!

I genuinely respect "there are people who have cultivated these skills & there are those who have not, & to get an audience you need to have a certain floor of skill, that's your price of entry for engagement" far more than this "don't you want to express something?" patronizing claptrap.

I more or less accidentally rediscovered a childhood blanket last year, and sleeping with it just felt immediately, instinctively *right*. If something feels good, and it doesn't hurt you or anyone else, there's no reason not to do it.

This is extremely based. I've accomplished a lot of cool stuff and still sleep snuggling a stuffed animal every night at 38. What ultimately matters is your ability to get what you need to do done, not performing an aesthetic of adulthood.

Nicole Kidman says that you can keep your childhood blankie until you're
85, "there's no medal for giving it up"
Nicole Kidman: "I always say to kids... your comfort is your comfort."
Nicole Kidman: "If you need to keep your blankie till you're 85, you keep
your blankie. There's no medal for giving that up."
Nicole Kidman: "Who says you have to be this sort of perfect grownup?
You're allowed to have these things."

Something useful to understand: The purpose of public comment is not to change anyone's mind. Nobody's mind is going to be changed, no matter what you write. The purpose of public comment is to establish facts that can later be used to challenge the NEPA determination in court.
