Wait, what do you mean Oscars now requires judges to actually watch a movie before voting? Did they not? Was not that obvious? No wonder they keep voting absolute trash movies and are so disconnected from reality of good movies. Gosh, how incredibly trite. Glad I dont take ’em seriously.

Goodbyes are hard. Had the last team meeting today in current team before I move to another team next Monday and it was bittersweet. Lots of memories exchanged and words spoken. It warmed my heart to be acknowledged that I was well liked within my product/engineering team. I am gonna miss working with a bunch of really talented people in my current team. Smart people who were as humble as they can be, with no ego and just an attitude to get shit done. I seriously hope I work with a few of them again someday!
Spanberger is an idiot. You will not win Virginia if guns are the first thing you want to go after. All this money pouring in and this establishment democrat candidate will do exactly what Terry did in VA 4 years ago and Kamala/Clinton did in their elections. No fucking no. You will not win Virginia with an anti-Trump campaign. Talk about what good democrats have done and how they will take state ahead.
Target is a classic case of a company whose persona base it targets is the very persona base it offended because they wanted to appease the people who never shopped there in the first place, and now they’ve lost everyone. Fuck ’em. Serves ’em right.

Goddamn this video is something! Love the song too, but the video is shot so well.
I always hate the feeling after a fun vacay week or people leave after few days, and you sense that normal day to day routine is starting again. It takes a few days for it to really settle into rhythm again. This was a good week. We didnโt plan any vacay and our Philly friends didnโt as well – and things kinda came together and what was supposed to be a weekend trip became almost a week trip much to the thrill of kids, and us. We did so much this week and were out and about every day with trips to great falls, wineries, restaurants and trail walks – it was refreshing, and much thanks to splendid stretch of weather we were blessed with.
Friends left a bit ago after 5 days and the house just feels empty. Doggo is so tired he is already taking a nap. I am glad they preponed the trip by a day resulting in extra fun times. We all were like where the F did 5 days fly by. Time just goes fast when you are having fun with folks you love and itโs a break. Bonus – the weather was absolutely spectacular all through which is rare!
Bear or dog, you decide.
