May 8 2025: Just Down The Road

I was trying to buy something from a popular online retailer, and when I was going to purchase it said it wasn't available in my area and they didn't know when it would be available again. Out of curiosity, I changed the delivery address to my office, which is just a piece down the highway. The result basically changed to "yes, sir, we'll have that for you right away!".

Whenever I see a person in public filming some performative video of themselves, likely for social media, my first instinct is to knock the phone out of their hands on the way by (I have never actually done this).

May 5, 2025: Outage/Outrage

I mentioned recently I was on a bidness trip. It was actually a vendor's conference for something interesting they might have coming online relatively soon. Anyway, we were out to dinner, and I forget how it came up, but one of the main contacts we're dealing with expressed his and his family's love for a certain dick baseball player that's been exiled in Japan for the last few years because no MLB team will sign him. I later told my boss the despite the potential millions in revenue we could get, we need to cut off all contact with them immediately. She disagreed.
