The absolute funniest thing about this situation is 50 years from now when TPM is hailed as a visionary, nay, PROPHETIC film. Sadly, George Lucas will be gone by then and won't be able to do history's biggest neener-neener dance. https://mastodon.sdf.org/@bgrinter/114283246050839893
Had a perfect piece of timing today, rest-wise. I got to...not exactly nap, because my body wasn't up for that, but at least drift a little on the couch this morning while Pete snoozed on me and my wife went to a volunteer thing.
I got up and ran to get new reading glasses because mine broke, and got back just in time to see she was home from her thing and taking a recovery nap. Just in time for Pete to start whining. So we went to the park, and then a drive through downtown, while she slept.
Word also is that characters from The Authority are going to be in the new Superman movie so I am forced to assume that it's Midnighter and Apollo. Comics movies are way overdue for "what if Supes and Batman were a gay couple"
My wife has informed me that the passport application site is down, one day after my parents' application was submitted and their photos taken. Now we have to cross our fingers and hope that bureaucracy momentum means they get processed.
If I needed a concrete "America is over" sign, I think this is it.
So my current employer has joined the "let's get rid of the senior people and build our product on rookies and AI" bandwagon. Not laid off, but that looks like it's coming.
If any of you know someone who needs a senior software engineer with a strong background in apps security, knows OAuth/OIDC, and speaks Java and Python, HMU. #FediHire
My good and faithful friend, I have not had much need of you since I left Missouri, and you are weirdly gendered, but by god when I need you, you show the hell up and make everything better. Or at least the driveway.
