Haha. If you go to Half Priced Books, you may find a spinning tower rack of sci-fi books with amazing covers, all of which are also in plastic sealed baggies.

Go nuts!

I adore this kind of art...the sort of old painted and airbrushed sci-fi art that would appear in magazines and on the covers of books. Sometimes I buy old sci-fi books just for the cover art. Invariably there is smut in the opening 5 pages lol. Just a pattern I've noticed :p

Dayton represent.

I love looking at big cats for this reason. There's something so cute about them having people-ish (or dog-ish, as you please) eyes.

We have so much debt but also all the police forces have become hyper militarized and laden with the left-over military hardware of the last 30 years of American warfare.

Jesus. Thanks for posting this.

It's just people. The more of them you get in one place, the more shitheads crop up.

Does it have any emailing functionality? Like will a reminder come remind me through email, or is it only as valuable as I am checking it often?

I think this is terrific. How much experience do you have programming, and what languages/frameworks did you use for this? I'm asking as a beginner who never knows where or how to really get started hobby programming, but really admires people who are out there doing cool shit.

Gameboy + Zelda: Link's Awakening bundle when I was like 6. That was an absolute guarantee gaming would get its hooks in a person.

I hate EdTech so fucking much.

The world seems to be led by idiots at every level. Top to bottom. That's not an observation just to bitch; it's meant to let you know that you can aim higher. If your boss is a fucking idiot, if the head of your organization is a fucking idiot, then that should show you how far someone with a brain in their head must be able to go, too. Don't feel defeated and relegated to nothing roles. Be inspired by how apparently easy it is for fucking idiots to do seemingly important or well-paying jobs, and then start thinking about whether you can show them up.

Also, you never realize how important project management is until you work in an environment where no one gives two shits about it. It turns out that writing things down, planning, documenting, agendas, follow-up, attending meetings you said you would attend, being able to back up the things you say, are all very fucking important. It turns out that being an incompetent piece of shit and con artist can get you very, very far, but gradually, people start to realize they've been had; one only hopes that the department or organization are still in one piece by the time and that they have the authority to get rid of you.
