RT @patio11: @mijustin A long long time ago, I worked in vision recognition. Suffice it to say that automated nudity detection is a thing.

Still hearing from women who get 🍆 pics DMed to them on various platforms.

"🍆 recognition" could auto flag, delete, and report.

Serious (late night) question:

Facial recognition in photos is awesome now. Is anyone working on 🍆 recognition to stop unwanted 🍆 pics?

@jongold I *just* realized that:

- was the *same* Jon Gold I met IN REAL LIFE at @xoxo in 2015

Surround yourself with friends who will call you out on your bull-shit.

Noble friends are guardrails that reduce your risk of stupidity.

Scraping emails to grow your list is just bad form.

Those addresses are useless because you haven't earned their trust.

@emilyboyd like it. Direct-print "white ink on tri-blend" t-shirt works well. Some folks who have done multiple colors find that they fade.

@williamle8300 that being said, I spent the last 8 years working on side-projects and building up an audience. Having an audience helps.

@williamle8300 hmm. I guess, for me having the freedom is more important than the certainty.

Nothing is "for sure" (employment, biz).

Everything she suggests makes my writing better. She's the Wayne Gretzky of prose.

My dream: we quit treating politics like fantasy football.

Instead, think of it as a mountain expedition.

Work together; reach the peak.

Team sports is a terrible metaphor for democracy.

We don't form government to score points; we form government to get somewhere.
