How do Israelis live with themselves? Aren’t they ashamed of their government? At least Americans are vocal about their displeasure with things – but Israelis? It’s just appalling to see this government just destroying everything around them. History will pay for this.

Just sad news coming out Ahmedabad (my home town) regarding the Air India Boeing 787 crash. Doesnt look like there will be any survivors? Reminds me of the other crash happened there when I was growing up. I am sure though Boeing will bridge Trumpkin so they don’t have to deep dive why this happened am-i-rite?
Crystal City or National Landing as they want to now rebrand this city is such a mess. The only good part are the parts that Amazon redeveloped and made it into a walkable livable community. Everything else is straight out of soviet era bunker style design. And the city is so inconvenient to reach from anywhere. Its not a surprise a lot of companies moved out in the last three decades but I am also hoping that Amazon will revitalize the city as they did in Seattle. They sure have a lot more support to do so here.
My ex-manager who convinced me to come back to the company is leaving in two weeks. It was a bittersweet moment for me. Just around 3 years ago he was on call convincing me to join the newly formed team. We’ve always good relationship before I had left first time, but over last 3 years we became really good friends more than colleagues. He was a great manager, took care of his team (and me) and backed us with fervor; i learnt a lot about management from him that I apply right now. When he called me to tell me he’s out, I couldn’t help but feel sad even though we’ve not been working with each for almost a year. The insane RTO push, and location stickiness, the bureaucracy and lethargy of it all finally just drove him away. I keep thinking how much good talent this company has lost over the last year over this whole RTO nonsense and it shows no signs of subsiding. I for one wish our old boss/CEO never left (or came back). He might have been a shitty person in real life but goddamn he was a great leader and a visionary, which is so sadly lacking anymore today.
My doggo just told me that when good people die they don’t go to heaven, instead they get the privilege of being reborn as a golden retriever in a nice family’s house for 15 years to live the life only a few get to live. I agree with his version of heaven.
The best way for newsom to tackle is this to join the protest himself with all the media he can and loves so much – make it a theater and prove the pumpkin wrong. Play his fucking game. He wants drama out of nothing, then give him drama. Otherwise you can keep poohpooing but it doesn’t change anyone’s mind. I can assure you half the country is ok with what Trump is doing.
WOW WOW WOW! Carlos Alcaraz! What a match. What a win. Sinner deserved this equally as him, but this french open final was easily for the ages. Absolute classic. And yes I am overjoyed coz I am #teamAlcaraz! How in the world did Alacaraz pull this out from 2 sets down, and a 3 match points down to winning this. I’m gonna keep repeating myself, but what a match! ooof!
Sadly we use our deck a lot. Our backyard and deck was one of the reasons we bought anyway since doggo is out a lot and we like to spend a good amount of time on deck when it’s not cold. So this kind of an investment we may end up doing anyway ugh.
House crap never ends does it. Recently noticed a couple of our joists on one part of deck have come apart. Call a contractor and now we have discovered rot on some posts, and the entire deck was built before code enforcement – so now to repair the deck I kinda have to bring the deck to code, and more digging later it’s turning out to be we may have to just replace our entire deck coz it was built crappy from grounds up and now becoming a risk. Fuck my life.
Apparently DNC has commissioned 20 million to understand how to reach gen z and young people. Meanwhile AOC / Sanders / Pete / Hogg are showing them how every fucking day. This establishment DNC is a joke and truly deserves to lose if they can’t even figure this shit out that republicans figured out a decade ago. And even if someone is showing them how, they won’t learn anyway. Bunch of fucking old idiots.
