3·11 hours agoOddly, as I’ve gotten older, I’ve ceased enjoying internet porn. Maybe it’s shooting it myself years ago, but, like: Why would you want random people you’ll never meet? I don’t get the industry as a whole … like, yeah, people liked my wife, but where does that get you?

2·12 hours agoI doubt it was the microwave situation. One does that once. In college. On the floor kitchen because even though you have your own, this experiment is worth doing in public.

1·15 hours agoI mean, I’ve been published several hundred times. Just not a full book yet.

Quick folo: A friend brought by another battery that seems to charge just fine, but I can’t speak to more than a day of that, given that I did not wake up in my van today. It is very strange to be surrounded by nostalgia while my ex-wife finishes her shift.

Technology@beehaw.org•Evidence That Humans Now Speak in a Chatbot-Influenced Dialect Is Getting StrongerEnglish
2·5 days agoI take the specific view that inadvertent phrasing of three words or less has repeatedly changed my life. Three is actually really excessive. One usually does the job; I only had to go to three once.

Technology@beehaw.org•Evidence That Humans Now Speak in a Chatbot-Influenced Dialect Is Getting StrongerEnglish
9·6 days agoWhat matters the most is not the words within an utterance, but the discourse conveyed by that utterance. [Translation: how you say it matters less than what you say.]
Under certain circumstances. How you say things in work and personal settings such as dating can absolutely affect outcomes.
