There is oat milk in the office fridge that expired April 2020. Dare I open it?
One more time for the people in the back: COULD YOU FUCKIN NOT?! twitter.com/CNEWS/status/1…

This piece primarily addresses the “how do we know what’s popular”? problem, but only has one line about another problem: These are public companies. How do investors grapple with the insider information problem when there’s no independent audit of products’ popularity?
The only people who know what we’re watching are the companies who make the shows. I wrote about why that is, and why it’s a problem. bloomberg.com/news/newslette…
This story is full of incredible details (the almond butter incident will stay with me...) but this one might take the cake: businessinsider.com/great-jones-co…

Hi! Are you ready for another week of eternal Caturday?

My mailbox is once again starting to fill up with junk like "Join us at PoopConf Global, the FIRST IN-PERSON CONFERENCE since the fall of human civilization!" — advertising a 200-person conference and bragging about western vaccination rates and could y'all please fuckin NOT??!
This weekend I listened to @kexp a lot and got a bad feeling of FOMO for having never submitting my music to them back when the process was a lot easier. I’m a nonbinary musician who’s never gotten much visibility. sockpuppet.us
I picked up a bug from my kids and feeling lousy today, so here's a rare photo of me from last week with my hair down looking all smolder-y.
There are lots of SF stories involving implanted personalities sharing consciousness with the resident personality. @ArkadyMartine is the 1st writer who made me *feel* what it might be like. pp 46-49 of A Desolation Called Peace, Teixcalaan Series, are particularly masterful.
First commute to the office since March 2020. (Because my home office at 95F/35C at 7am) So many things I forgot. I need to pack lunch? Bring all my tech stuff? Ship packages before work? Masks for lobby? So many things to consider compared to wfh.

This is a phenomenal way to do a look back at a year in reading. I'll have to consider how to pull it off for myself this year. #AnnoConvo #IAnno21 boffosocko.com/2021/06/09/557…
Freedom Fighters takes it for me
I made this Rebellions in fiction bracket
I still have a few textbooks from college, mainly for nostalgia sake. This one is copyright 1987! 😬 Scheme is still one of my favs. How about you? Any fav textbooks from school?
This is the best kind of thread necromancy. Looking forward to trying the PC version!
Hopefully the endorsement holds for the PC version 🤞 twitter.com/tinysubversion…
Annotation demonstrates proof of work. It's part of the reason that social annotation using #EdTech tools like @Hypothes_is is worthwhile. Students indicate (via social signaling) that they've read & actively engaged w/ material. #IAnno21 #MarginalSyllabus boffosocko.com/2021/06/09/557…
Portland in the 100s gets a huge thumbs down from me. I'll take a snowstorm *any day* over this. 🥵😡😭
