me, having been awake since 5:30am and gone to Delaware and back in a day: why am I so sleepy

sometimes I'll get follow requests on IG from people who I'm pretty sure are interested in my work and I think I need to change my bio to be clear that the locked account is 99.8% pictures of my dog

@writerethink I'm excited to see this become a clout thing ("is your website even in the C4 dataset?")

@nev I can't decide if this will become a clout metric or just determine how many pennies get parceled out to us in the class action settlement

remembering every person who has ever tried to persuade me that progress is the de facto state of humanity as I learn that Iowa legislators voted to make it easier for companies to use child labor

Went on a daytrip to AMS06, Microsoft's very large datacenter in Middenmeer, NL. Which quite likely hosts my university's email. Like every datacenter it has a security perimeter that is highly surveilled. This perimeter is quite permeable to the rabbits and crows that live in the area. These places have such scales now that they have their own fauna. I relish the fact that a few hundred rabbits probably live and feed there.

love that the NYC inspector general's office solicits tips with the tagline "Help DOI get worms out of the Big Apple"
