This movie was ahead of its time. I could watch this and Spaceballs on repeat as a kid

Just my own opinion, developed through my own lived experiences. I, consciously, chose to not specialize too deep into one field and instead developed a more broad set of skills. The recent research is starting to validate my decisions back then. As it turns out, college grads with multiple minors, rather than graduates with a traditional major trajectory, tend to be better suited to the work environments.

Where knowledge of a range of disciplines helps inform a more holistic approach to creative problem solving. “Wicked problems” are often tackled and solved by systems thinking generalists because they draw on a wide range of experiences across multiple disciplines, departments, and sets of knowledge.

Dive into T-Shaped Skill Sets

Saw Robocop when I was six. Murphy getting his arm blown to bits haunted me for years… Until I saw Red Foreman years later, then I was ok

Tahini! Sesame paste goodness!

Ok, blue-skying a bit here…

There’s this YouTube channel I check out occasionally. The YouTuber built a “wireless desk” where everything from the lamp to the mouse, keyboard, and even a coffee warmer were wirelessly powered.

Wireless Powered Desk

The core of it was a large induction loop built into the desk’s perimeter, paired with some surprisingly compact receiver dongles. Some parts required deeper DIY, like opening up the mouse and inserting a small receiver, but overall it was cool

Scaling that concept up for an entire house is a wild thought… but kind of exciting!

Ah, but a man’s reach should exceed his grasp, Or what’s a heaven for?

You’re describing retirement. And, boy have I spent a LOT of time thinking about what that looks like.

A lot of people have lists of things they’d do, see, learn, or be. I had one too, but it kept fucking changing depending on where I was in life and what my interests were.

Any list I had always felt restrictive. Here’s where I ended up instead…

I would put my energy and attention only on the things that I want to put them on at any given time.

I guess some call that living in the moment, but I call it retirement.

For some reason, I thought it was codified in…I’m not based in the US so I could very well be off about that. I guess it’s too far along in the takeover for there to be any kind of practical resistance to any of this part

Did I miss something that walked back the whole ‘separation of church and state’ thing?? There’s been so much shit flying around lately, and so many flies buzzing around carrying that shit…

The ‘common’ part of ‘common sense’

Not just you! But it wasn’t until I saw a quote from John Wayne that it registered for me…

Talk low, talk slow and don’t say too much"

Hahahaha Lock it in and hit up suno.ai

If I was a Five Eyes nation, I’d be looking long and hard at reducing head count…or at least changing the name to “Four Eyes and an Asshole”

…had someone rifle balls at you, as hard as they can, off of a bat or racquet. Something about facing it down and letting your instinctual reactions take over is viscerally primal.

Say what you mean, mean what you say.

Toilet paper that doesn’t exfoliate your pucker hole with a single wipe. I pay a little bit extra to not feel like I’m pooping in a construction site portable

Hands down, when someone is eating while using a handheld phone. No matter how hard you try, mics are designed to pick up audio from near your mouth, you WILL sound like a face hugger from Alien
