I like that Cory Doctorow is pretty open about having been scammed despite being quite well informed, because it really can happen to anyone. It just takes the right convergence of factors.

Yes, the mitochondria and all the other organelles. We're mostly egg.

And people forget that we're also the egg.

Vad har det med Sverige att göra? As a Spanish speaker, that's just one its meanings in Spanish.

I've never smelled ants, but like maybe ants in Sweden don't smell? It's why I wanted to know which kinds.

Which ants? All ants?

Time to hit the gym, or my husband is dead.

This is how I feel with my little wild garden. I just visit, show some encouragement, and remove an obstacle or two.

My problem is that the "Can you do something about it?" is always unclear, I go back and forth until it consumes my thoughts.

So much self-monitoring is exhausting. Worse because I think I genuinely go overboard if I don't monitor.

I'm lucky that I've made friends where we literally send essays to each other and don't even have any expectations of a time limit for answering. I probably achieved this by "being annoying" and the friends (who also happen to be autistic for the most part), self-selected.

I'm continuously confused about why they think they are free, or at least uniquely free? What does the moon even have to do with that supposed freedom?

I am really happy when people are quite strict in code reviews, it makes me feel safer and I get to learn more.

Nothing worse than some silent approvals with no real feedback. What if I missed something obvious... and now it's merged.

To be fair, I also enjoy getting my grammar corrected. I'm juggling 3 languages and things can get messy.
