when i get banging on a problem it is insanely nice to just hack uninterrupted

however sometimes it is tough to get going especially when rear end in a top hat neighbors start loudly playing choral music from 2pm

also gently caress functional programming nerds forever what the gently caress is wrong with you, do that poo poo in your spare time or document and test it properly

i definitely do more work at home when i get in the groove and sit down to work, but some days it is hard to ignore laundry and other miscellaneous home things that would normally be out of my brain between 9-5 in the office. in conclusion, wfh is a land of contrasts.

i’d probably get a good amount of work done at home if i didn’t have a 3 year old who has not been laid off from her job of hollerin’ and wanting things very badly she cannot be allowed to have

I haven't seen 40 year old virgin but I'm going to assume that "buy a toy and keep it in a box" is a metaphor for virginity here.

I'm looking for the man who shot my paw.

i still have some comic books from the mid 90s with foil and hologram covers. collectors items that they only made 5 million copies of, so now they're worth about $1.75. i think when superman died my mom bought the book and put it in a safe deposit box.

One of the big pluses of wfh is cooking fresh food daily. It beats eating a lovely sandwich for lunch each day at work.

This is definitely one of my favorite things about it aside from not having to wear pants and not having to commute.

It is pretty explicitly called out as such about 3/4 of the way through.

I had an untouched KAWS toy I sold for a bunch after like a decade, which sort of makes up for the tons of worthless comics I guess.

imagine this: that one twilight zone about the bookworm with time to read at the end of the world but instead he keeps pulling deposit boxes and its the same comic

in fairness that’s the root cause but the intent is to choke the yawning void where defining personal characteristics could have been, with a mass produced marble comic fandom product they think is “””niche”””

its a magic phrase that shes hoping will mean her dumb comfortable suburban life will return to normal and she can go back to her lovely megachurch and get her kids out of the house and resume yelling at the woman behind the counter at panera

this whole "coronavirus" thing is forcing her to look slightly past the tip of her nose to the greater world around her and she doesnt like that one bit

that march was basically one long shriek of "i demand to speak to your manager" (where manager = governor whitmer)

consensus from coworkers is that most people are doing MORE work at home than they did in the office, longer hours, etc. maybe if the ceo realizes this we'll get some flexibility when the crisis is over

meanwhile i'm sitting here posting, doing jack poo poo

i have been ultra unmotivated lately, but not sure if it's a job thing or a covid thing tbh
