I'm also nickmark on MetaFilter. But on mltshp I'm fuggle.
@nickmark I just think it’s kind of sad that simply publicly acknowledging that diversity is important is enough to make anyone a respected industry leader on the topic.
Oh hey - a company whose senior leadership and board of directors is almost 100% middle aged white dudes is asking me to participate on a panel to provide my middle aged white dude perspective on diversity. Thank goodness this hard to reach segment will be represented.

I think it’s really funny that dilaudid makes my nose itch. I’m not sure if it’s actually funny or if it’s not but the dilaudid makes me think it is.
Dammit, old people!
How am I supposed to convince my regulators they should approve my innovative new offering (and that customers will like it) if 45 percent of respondents to the marketing survey are age sixty or older?
Is there nothing Baby Boomers can’t ruin?

I love my job but frankly today I’d rather skip work and spend the day playing Subnautica. I blame @joshmillard
I am surprised and pleased by how easy it was to convince Marketing to completely remove the problematically-worded question about gender from the customer survey. Didn’t even have to get into why it was problematic; they just agreed we don’t need to ask it.
Small victories, gang.
Overheard from the six-year-old:
“So boys are people you marry, but you can also marry girls. So it can be girl-girl, girl-boy, or boy-boy, but if it’s boy-boy it might be hard to have a baby. And I know this because I’m from Earth.”
I feel like I’m doing okay with this one.
