I know the polite term for bathroom is powder room, but whenever I need to go to the restroom, I say I need to go to the panic room because that's what I do in there and pretty much everywhere else.

I know that Stephen Miller gets a lot of hate on here, but hear me out.
I think we could hate him more. We have the capacity, we all just need to put in a little more effort.

@dokas @stroughtonsmith One of my favorite MacOS 8 easter eggs is how if you set your Macs date to something inplausibly far in the future (like “2025”), the crayons would be worn down as if they had been used

@adam That's the beauty of generalized anxiety disorder. Logic and common sense don't matter... My brain is just shouting that there is very real danger and my endocrine system responds in kind

I've been talking to GitHub and giving them feedback on their "create issues with Copilot" thing they have in the works.
Today I tested a version for them and using it I asked copilot to find and report a security problem in curl and make it sound terrifying.

Proved my point excellently.

2. Say "what the fuck"
3. Go to step 1

I'm not a big fan of the Naked Gun #movie franchise. I don't dislike it
Same with #LiamNeeson
But I'm now a huge fan of their #advertising campaign (this #moviePoster just came out yesterday)
