Pronunciation tip: my last name is pronounced like "books" with an F.

But (secondary pronunciation alert!) in english, I and most people I talk to say it Foo-gs. Either works! Whichever is easier.

@ingrid perfect sentence alert on https://flaminghydra.com/the-end-and-after-2/:

“I was fighting fascism with the power of love and kindness and just really getting my ass handed to me.”

Welp, today sucked. Love to have a whole morning to myself, decide to do a quick errand and then be on a side quest of expensive chores for 8 hours

Ok fine it’s only 6 years, but still! What a delight

Today was the first nicely sunny day and my dog and I enjoyed the heck out of it. Landed the best Live Photo I’ll take the entire year

I’m sure your LLMs can construct a series of 10+ person meetings (with agendas and mandatory pre-reads) from any email, no matter how short

We choose to go to the Moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because we are pretty sure we will not suffer the consequences

Igor, I’ll need you to swing by the wetware store later this afternoon
