I wonder if the increase in cancer in young people is connected to the recent prevalence of tattoos? If I were a betting man, I’d wager so; I assign that a pretty high probability. Tattoo ink is fairly invasive physiologically and creates persistent irritation/inflammation. And irritation is a known cause of cancer.

My guess is tattoo ink acts as a substance that enhances tumorigenicity when applied after a carcinogen. So, it’s multi-causal but that’s pretty common in today’s world; we’re exposed to various carcinogens all the time.

Man, someone who actually knows something about filmmaking created this. It’s so good.

And no one is Hope and should not try to be, which is why the cover itself works.

Love it.

Ghosted after 3 interviews and 3 assignments.

There was never a real chance at a job here. This is just a company scamming for free work. They are probably doing this to multiple “candidates” at the same time. Has become increasingly common.

I’ll take a short test or do something tiny to show I know what’s up. I will not do any assignments. Not gonna redesign someone’s whole network or environment for free. If I do, I’ll make it look plausible but it’ll be a trainwreck if they attempt to implement.

Do not fucking work for free.

Powdered sugar is highly flammable, so take care when you make a birthday cake!

Eh, nearly anything with high kilocalorie/energy content in small enough dry granules (or aerosolized) is highly flammable. That’s just physics.

The risk of widespread war is now the highest since the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962.

What’s worrying is that nearly no one except, like, me and the prime minister of Poland seem to realize this.

It’s a lot of work, keeping my mind so obsidian-sharp and my body so gloriously sculpted, but I do it because I love you all so much. Yep, that’s it.

I really do think most companies and even individual people could use a service that I could easily provide: I won’t tell you what smart thing to do, but I will tell you how to avoid doing the stupidest thing possible. Since many companies default to the most absurdly self-destructive decisions imaginable and so do many people, this is not hard. That’ll be my cheap tier, say $1,000 per month for an hour or two of work.

Now if you want me to actually tell you the smart thing to do, that’s way, way more. Like $100,000 a month for companies for a few hours work and $2,000 for individuals. Because doing the smart thing — now, that’s fairly hard. But avoiding the absolute most braindead crap? That’s easy. For me, anyway.
