I hesitate to put this out there on Twitter cause I don't wanna get flooded, but the actually-really-nice company where I have my day job is hiring:

- A Ruby on Rails dev
- Sales reps (phone selling exp. a must!)
- Tutors for the LSAT, GRE, Bar Exam & 1L year of law school.
Company is PROFITABLE during COVID, really quite nice to work for, and the office is still closed so for right now everyone can work from anywhere (if you can legally be paid by a US company). The Rails job might eventually need to come into the office in LA at least part-time.
I have yet to have an unnecessary meeting in almost a year of working here, it is fully bootstrapped (no annoying VC/hedge fund influence), the CEO is nice to work with, and they sent me Wagyu steak & Moet on my birthday. Happy to answer Qs for seriously interested ppl.

It's September in Southern California, which means it's time for the annual Spider Simp Thread!

No photos, don't worry, just information on why you're seeing more, bigger spiders this month and what to do to avoid a face full of spiderweb without harming lovely mosquito eaters.
First, Giant Face Hug Spiderwebs: elaborate webs stretching across sidewalks or even whole streets will become more common this month through October/November.

These are the work of orb weavers! They've always been around, they're just at their largest in the fall.
Our local orb weavers in the Los Angeles area are:

- harmless (the only medically significant spider here is the black widow)
- extremely afraid of you - startle one at the wrong moment and it may run away then later EAT ITS ENTIRE WEB to avoid encountering you again

Hi! Heat wave picketers, would you like some tips on increasing your heat tolerance?

I'm an endurance rider, which means I do a sport that requires me to sometimes exercise in up to 120-degree temperatures for hours at a time.

Heat tolerance is not fixed—you can build it.
First rule of heat training is: NEVER PUSH IT.

I'm serious. Do NOT get heatstroke. It will take away all your hard work building heat tolerance and make it easier to get heatstroke again in the future.

If you feel overheated, even if you've been outside for 30 seconds, cool off
Related to "never push it," don't be distracted from your bodily sensations in heat.

For my neurodivergent folks especially: NO HYPERFOCUSING IN HEAT! You will not notice that you're too hot!

If you have to do hyperfocusy things, SET A TIMER for cooling breaks every 20 minutes.

The biggest “they hate us cause they ain’t us” arc of my lifetime

The obscenely rich can have anything they desire… except creativity and imagination.

So they attack it. If they can’t have it, it must be worthless. Like a street harasser screaming “You’re ugly anyway!”
Once upon a time, a friend got a job working for someone who makes an amount of money my mind can’t fathom, doing a job in the entertainment industry that many aspire to.

She passed his desk one day to find he’d left the screenplay he was working on open on his desktop.
Now, this guy seemed like a pretty decent fellow, and he was actually TRYING to find his own creativity. No hate!

But the point is, everyone wants to experience creative self-expression, even if every other desire they have ever had has been fulfilled.

wild how the percentage of workers belonging to a union peaked in 1954 at 35%

and 1954 is the "golden age of the vibrant, thriving middle class" that everyone yearns for

but nobody yearning for the golden age of the vibrant, thriving middle class is proposing more unions
NOSTALGIC POLITICIAN: we need to go back to 1954 to save the middle class

MILLENNIALS: neat! by getting 35% of American workers into strong labor unions, right?

POLITICIAN: not that part

MILLENNIALS: so what part then?

POLITICIAN: I was thinking racism and housewives
look I know correlation is not causation and some proximate cause could have led to both the golden age of unions AND the golden age of the middle class

but like... it doesn't seem like giving management 100% of the power & profits is working? look at the egg prices?

God, he's just such a basic fucking model of "dad whose kids don't like him."

No features. No bells and whistles. Not even power windows. Just an absolute, off the lot, take it or leave it, as-is crappy dad.
Men will literally buy Twitter, unban convicted terrorists, ban journalists, ban competitors, play footsie with white supremacists, and sell the office espresso machine at auction before apologizing to their kids.
And honestly? I think they have no idea how corny and absolutely the opposite of masculine that energy looks on them.

"I'm so TOUGH I am NOT going to be MANIPULATED into saying SORRY to my KID"

so ur gonna die alone to own your babies? that's the move?

One of the ickiest things fascists do—and have probably done since humanity developed the ability to speak—is the "ha, I can't believe you reacted to that!" bit.

Because, if you don't react when they're doing fascism, they end up in power. If you do react: "Ha! Gotcha!"
They would like you to believe that they are only serious when you ignore them until they have obtained control, and, whenever you pay attention to them, they were just being silly to prove that you're easily baited into responding.

Eerie similarity to pandemics, that.
It's been observed often that there is no appropriate level of reaction to a novel virus.

React enough to squash it, and you'll appear to have overreacted, because things turned out fine.

React too little, and the option to react enough is quickly taken off the table.
