Just came across a few "kids spend too much time on their phones" meme.
Something I'm trying to break out of as I get older (I'm pushing fifty) is to not get into the habit of comparing my childhood to children today.
We spend the first third of our lives enjoying our childhood, the second is making life easier for the next generation, and I refuse to shame kids in the final third of my life for taking advantage of what we did to make thier lives easier.
Thoughts Before Bed
Today was the first day since the layoff that has felt like I had 100% of my brain back on track. Cleaned house, planned next week's meals, bought groceries, and had a nice (grocery store deli) dinner.
Tomorrow I have to get some meds and the day is fairly open. Will probably make the first of next week's meals and finish up a story outline I've been working on for a friend's project.
One of the joys of running Linux is finding out that applications you haven't even thought about since your college days are still being used and updated.
Last night I dreamed that I won an Emmy. While I was giving an acceptance speech it got out it wasn't for a TV show, but a radio show, and an unofficial one at that.
The producer and other writers spent my entire acceptance speech time fighting off the officials trying to take my Emmy back.

Celebrity Nonsense, Trans Joy, Ally Appreciation
Sometimes when I'm unpacking groceries or brushing my teeth, I randomly start thinking about #PedroPascal and his sister Lux and it fills me with a kind of #transjoy I cannot possibly describe.
What ferociously beautiful spirits.

"Aren't you cold, little girl?" the wolf rumbled with a flash of fangs; a towering shadow against the twilight.
"I'm not little, or a girl."
The wolf paused, breathing out a visible sigh, then tried again, "Well, boy..."
"I meant I'm an adult woman."
The wolf let out a flustered whimper, "I'm just worried you're cold; that cloak looks very thin. That basket looks heavy; please may I help?"
"Why?"
"People think I'm bad for some reason."

Partial set of Susan Kare’s Macintosh Classic OS bitmap icons. She had no experience with computer graphics so she referenced her work with mosaics, needlepoint, and pointillism. They were hand-drawn on graphing paper before being digitized.

Serious cooks have ways of keeping their spices organized. I had a spice rack built on my pantry door, and they're alphabetized top to bottom. The jars have easy to read labels with a world map on the cap that highlights the area where the spice is most prevalently used. When I immersed myself in international cooking a few decades ago, I felt this was the best way to keep my spices straight.

People who've never met a trans person writing laws that affect maybe a handful of people and protect no one from nothing. If you don't think this is Nazi-style scapegoating, you're a fan of Nazi-style scapegoating.
I'm back on my night hours, and something that's blowing my mind is how fast time is going. Has it been over a week since the layoff?

The primary complaints about Gen Z ultimately boil down to "They refuse to work shitty jobs for shit pay" and "They're too nice to people who are different". Which says just as much about the quality of the older generations as the quality of the new one.
