Over the years me and Erik have done a lot of couples costumes! But I think I’m noticing a trend… Erik seems to take well to playing characters that are loud, and a bit over the top. And I take well to playing characters that just stand there and judge you 😑😆

Hoy soy las estrellas en el cielo. ¿Y tú?

Vibe coding: Front end - great idea!👍 Back end - horrible idea!😬

Just your periodic reminder that mothers have always been working mothers.

The single family home, breadwinner + stay at home parent, is a wild anomaly in human history.

I am forever indebted to Satoshi, but y’all we have to stop doing these Satoshi based appeals to authority. Satoshi was a fallible human, what they said a decade ago is interesting but can't be our guiding principle. Satoshi is gone. We are all Satoshi now.

Makeup can be fun. You can be really dramatic with it. But I really hate the idea that you have to wear makeup to look professional. Like really? My face as it actually exists is unacceptable to be shown in a professional environment? What a fuckedup idea. Who came up with that???

We all know… First they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they fight you. Then you win. But what we might not have expected is that “then they fight you” has been swapped for “then they co-opt you”.

I’m convinced that an “anger problem” isn’t a problem with too much anger, it’s a problem with misplaced and repressed anger. Anger is a defensive emotion. When anger is needed but suppressed it just builds and builds until it explodes all at once. “Angry” people are people who don't need to learn to be less angry, but who need to learn to be angry more frequently, in smaller doses, where it is actually needed. *in general of course.

New favorite song, Lily Allen - Fruityloop "It is what it is. You're a mess. I'm a bitch. Wish I could fix all your shit. But all your shit's yours to fix..." It's a thing most of us know intellectually. You can't fix someone. You fix you, they have to fix their own shit. We know, but holy shit is this one hard to actually do!

I couldn't find a gender neutral cartoon figure. All of them were very flat and looked male to me. And so I made one! Meet Jamie, an actually gender neutral cartoon figure.

I'm completely obsessed with Dunbar's number! How many of the issues we currently face are simply because we all have instincts for living in small packs of 100-200 people, but we now live in metropolises??? (spoiler: a lot!)

Mockery works great! ...in the short run. But in the long run you are simply helping your opponent to grow their base.
