The problem I have with this is that it seems to presuppose that the listener isn't just dumb, or painfully un or misinformed.

I'd make a joke about how one disability that you don't have is making good jokes, but I also don't have that disability ☹️

With that level of brazen disregard for reality and logic, he sounds like he should be a speechwriter for some politician, or a reporter. He'd fit right in 😂

In your system agents.md file, you don't have a paragraph of "but seriously, be concise"? Bold!

Yesterday evening I left some cookies on a friend's doorstep because she was putting her toddler to bed; I felt like I was being so bad! 🙂

Thanks for the reminder that it's seldom worth it to be one of the cool kids.

I've been daydreaming of getting a saw since we moved to a house with a wood stove, but my wife keeps pointing out that her job roughly lets her bring home infinit wood (and occasionally saws) so I'm "not allowed" 😂 She however does not complain about the axe that I bought, or the splitting that I do 🙂

Maybe I'm projecting, but a family friend who spent a number of years living on a motorcycle once told me that if you're not an adult by the time you're 30, you never have to be. When I turned 30 I was very proud of having strategically excised a number of responsibilities that I'd previously naively taken on and was excited about the prospect of a relatively carefree life. But much more recently, I keep being reminded of the fact that one of the few things that I find to be more off-putting than stereotypical adulthood, is failing to be an adult when that's exactly what the situation calls for. I don't know exactly what my point is, but if you're finding the prospect of being self-sufficient or self-reliant to be stressful or daunting, you're definitely not alone.

Now I'm super curious how people thought it grew 🤔

Occasionally I have moments of nervousness when I realize that in a few years I likely won't remember how to manage my server, then I remember that, fingers crossed, I won't need to

We've been talking about moving, maybe to CO, and it's been leaving me wondering what I should be stacking in the meantime. And happy birthday!
