Just a reminder today when posting political controversies to put a mature/volatile content warning on it. That stuff can be hard to take some days & is potentially downright traumatic. #politics #mentalhealth #news #sotired #makeitstop
In case you missed it, April is National Financial Literacy Month in the U.S.
You could make it up, but why would you want to?

If you are a #developer and your app or website sends me to a page where *the only next option is* for me to start typing, (think/password/auth apps/verification codes) then HAVE THE DAMN CURSOR READY for me to start typing.
If I have to first select the field before typing, then you all will be going straight to Hades. Go fix it now.

Great News!! NOT! Go Fund Me isn't just for our ridiculously inadequate health system - now it is used to procure necessary curriculum resources for public schools

Ack! I’m being buried in text messages today with the theme of if we don’t reach our money goal in the next 6 hours #Trump will personally appear at your house and force you to listen to him talk forever. I thought I had opted out of these, but they seem to be coming from different phone numbers I’ve never seen before. #MakeItStop
Here is the thought I woke up with this morning. Recently I’ve been reflecting on how this era in #American history will be remembered 50 or 100 years down the road. I think it was Napoleon who said history was written by the victors, for whatever that’s worth. My initial conclusion was, of course, that this time will be looked upon with derision and scorn, and almost certainly there will be movies made excavating the comedy gold that’s prime for the taking. But then I remember all the #sanewashing that has gone on, and continues to go on in a big way. Yes, there will be plenty of evidence of what an absolute disaster this time is, but there will also be much material, full of gravitas, telling us it really wasn’t like this at all, that all of this was perfectly normal. Once we all have shuffled off this mortal coil, it will be up to our ancestors to duke it out about who was right. And here is the elephant in the room. When we get to that time long in the future, it is my fervent (desperate?) prayer that this time will be in the past and not continuing into oblivion. #TrumpRegime #Fascism #ChristianNationalism #Doge #MakeItStop

Out on the road today
I saw a Deadhead sticker on a Cadillac
A little voice inside my head
Said "Don't look back
You can never look back"
I thought I knew what love was
What did I know?
Those days are gone forever
I should just let them go but....

The second one was so boring I had to watch it in chunks to slog my way through it.

Coworker: Good morning
Me: It’s morning, how are you?
Coworker: Yes
I have spent the last 12-18 months marking text as spam and replying STOP and asking to me removed from call list for the previous owner of this number. This person apparently had a business with loans and debt and signed up some kind of lending offer. 15-20 calls/text a week. How do I make it stop? Change my number? Cause I did that once already from a number that was getting 50-60 calls a week! Any number you haven’t had since 2005 is tainted!#privacy #spam #blockedcalls #donotcall #makeitstop
LinkedIn... I just can't.
- Equally TO WHAT?!
- I'm "both brained" enough to make some guesses about gaps in the educational background of whoever wrote this.
- You want someone to be so "creative" that they will twist and p-hack and manipulate your data to give you statistical significance whether that makes any damn sense or not. Okay.
I can see why the #datascience folks on /r/datascience are so cynical about pretty much every conversation they have with sales, HR, or #management.

Alberta, Canada's home of government-funded disinformation 
On Alberta's UCP "covid task force" report:
“This report sows distrust. It criticizes proven preventive public health measures while advancing fringe approaches. It makes recommendations for the future that have real potential to cause harm.”
-- Dr. Shelley Duggan, Alberta Medical Association President
