additionally "guy" is famously gender neutral

Reading a book titled Davos Man (about billionaires who are the absolute worst) and really think the author should have titled it Davos Guy for increased comic effect

Also the cross section drawings!! So good!!

this drawing of a crystal in the national archives was such a treat to stumble upon today

I don't know if I'm ever going to get over learning that the guy who created the World Economic Forum expects that he'll someday receive a Nobel Peace Prize for doing this

I love my mom but definitely feels like 90% of the time we're just talking past each other and I've just learned to accept that as a relationship

Realizing that supply chain research is actually a skill set useful to the Federal Reserve I briefly looked at research jobs there but I think my tendency to call economics "cute when it pretends to be science" would be a hindrance

The guy at the Federal Reserve I'd been emailing with about semiconductor supply chains got in touch a few days ago and it was very funny to only me to say in an email to a Fed economist "given the recession I'm pretty sure I'm sticking around for a PhD"

I am begging everyone who wants to tell me about photography and what-if scenarios with AI art to google "historical materialism", please, my family is dying

respectfully: even most of the people who think they agree with me are wrong!! lol

Sometimes at the dog park this guy with two tiny papillon dogs will come by. In my mind I call them The Little Lords, Launcelot and Fauntleroy, and they always skitter around the park as though they are encountering commoners for the first time. I love them and never want to learn their real names.
