I know more about networking than every single person in my entire company combined, and it’s not even close.
Amusing
No Viol

My rule is: Do not violate any hippos. Much living probably does not occur after that, for one.
Max Men

This is a bit unfair to some women, but also true. Women have absolutely no idea (and therefore believe it doesn’t occur) how much grinding over years it takes to actually go from a low-value to a high-value man in the dating market. And the things Max mentions can and do help you get there, if not taken to misogynistic extremes.
As a man, you have to work out, make a lot of money, be relatively charming and have your life together otherwise to be seen as remotely human by most women. Even men who women believe “naturally” have all of this — trust me, ladies, they do not. Nearly every one of them worked hard for it over many years. That guy you believe is “naturally fit?” Believe me, he very much is not. It’s a lot of time in the gym. That dude who you think is “naturally” charming? Also nope. He got rejected 3,000 times to achieve that.
Women believe insane things about men and and their lives. Far worse than men believe about women, mostly.
One of the reasons this occurs is women simply do not have to be curious about nor understand men very well. They will get approached regardless and they know this. However, men have to understand women and their point of view. There is just no choice.
Will Vis
My partner received a letter from the IRS in the mail.
It was not the comfort I thought it’d be that I assured her I’d visit her in prison.
Tumb
Ha. There was an entire generation before the Tumblr teens that grew up with the internet. Younger millennials and Gen Z think they were the first on the internet for some fucking reason.
I first used the internet in 1986, but didn’t use it routinely until 1995. Tons of people like me, too.
Worthiness
But it’s funny! And that’s worth something.
Rama & Melanie
That’s Rama Duwaji, the mayor of NYC’s wife, and Miss Israel, Melanie Shiraz.
And yes, leftists be fuckin’ crazy. And wrong.
Chilling in Monaco
Ha, so true. The very rich girl (had a personal Amex black card) I went on one date with was one of the most chill girls I ever spent time with in a romantic context.
Unfortunately, we were incompatible. She wanted kids very soon and I obviously do not. Damn, no yacht for me.
(Not sure what the IQ chart has to do with it.)
All Me
Yesterday, a salesperson asked me what AI had produced a summary of some product and security features I’d written for him to send to a customer. He said he could never get results that good with his prompts.
And I had to tell him that it was Mike AI. All me, baby, all me. AI writing is now superior to what 99.5% of humans can churn out. But it’s not even really that close to what I can do yet, even in the business world.
Too Many Notes
Oops, watched too many music vids and now Safari is broken from here to Hoboken.
The usual. Ain’t no browser can handle me.
Scroll Lock
I hate this. I hate this a lot.
Right On
Having worked for a FAANG, I can tell you they are incredibly poorly-organized and most of their people are self-impressed and strivers, but not very good. The people I worked with at a much smaller non-prestigious hosting company were far smarter, and had deeper knowledge.
