"Career progression" is a weird concept when you consider how much work it took me to be a rainbow haired engineer lady who is just senior enough to get summoned like the fae to keep clouds from bursting into flames or clean up messes but not so senior as to spend my life in zoom meetings.

I hear we lost Margaret Hamilton today. What an absolute legend; Thank you for leading the way, ma'am. RIP
It will never cease to amaze me that I can walk around the area around Times Square and occasionally bump into people who go "Rabbit!"
It's made all the more WTF when you remember I have about 8 siblings who couldn't pick me out of a line up.
I have no idea why the sound system of my mind is playing Bad Apple!! on repeat, but someone is getting a sternly written letter.

We’re just going to keep pretending this guy is fit to lead, eh?
The societal purpose of Ivy League schools and their clout is to smart-wash the useless mouth-breathing offspring of the rich and famous by commingling them with the actual best and brightest of society.
(fyi, closeted trans girls, it was entirely worth it no matter what. I just mean, I will have accomplished one of the things that got me to make the leap.)
If one person goes to vote and thinks "I shouldn't vote for the anti-trans rights candidate" because they know me, then the hell of coming out was entirely worth it.
