As a gay atheist, I am sad about the loss of freedom from religion in the US.

The population trends are still clear: the Republican hold on the south will fall within a decade. It’s just going to be a shitty decade.

I remember hearing this "song" by Christian music artist Carmen.

The lyrics are wild, but summarize the loss of the US Christian theocracy (and now its return).

I spent my childhood in the Bible Belt.

Christian adults were obsessed with:
• prayer in school
• making abortion illegal
• putting god back in America

The "silent majority", as they referred to themselves, has won. I never thought they would.

The US needs national movement to #Repeal2A, even though it is not yet popular in enough states.

Beat the drum.
Simple message.
Loud and louder.

Bank mobile apps:
I will keep you signed in forever, even if you cloud restore to a new device, as long as you show me your pretty face, darling.

Bank Web apps:
You glanced away from the screen for 5 seconds. Sign in again, criminal. Have we even ever met??

Watched the documentary “Pray Away” tonight. It’s about the Christian ex-gay movement, which continues to thrive. Growing up in the Bible Belt, fear of being put into conversion therapy kept me in the closet. That fear and closet might have saved my life.

Is there a book or video course on business writing for software engineers you would recommend?

I've spent many hours teaching writing and pair-editing with software engineers. I would like something to help accelerate that learning.

Engineering managers: replace “bus factor” with “bingo factor”.

I hope my team members leave unexpectedly from winning big bingo bucks rather than getting killed by public transportation.

A chatbot has never improved my customer support experience.

Waking up to a cryptocurrency DeFi Ponzi scheme collapse is an improvement over the usual US news I wake up to.

I bought some bunds to help cool the planet.
