Saw John Wick finally. I enjoyed it! But for some reason all those quick cuts had my brain contrasting it with Oldboy, and now I want to watch Oldboy again.

News showing tweets about protests including a good photo of some protest vandalism wreckage. Somehow I recognized the name as dude I followed years back until realizing he just had some sort of protest vandalism wreckage fetish.

I don’t kink shame much, but — not my scene.

@ella_kane he was indifferent to protests and protestors. But if there was property damage or people being stupid, he had to go take pics.

He said what?

Oh I can’t wait for a potential employer to ask me “are you now or have you ever been antifa?”

“ok first off and let’s just get this out of the way I’m not working here. Okay now sit down and get ready for a lecture on the concept of antifascism. Good thing you got this whiteboard handy.”

@dotUser Nah I save the cute responses for people I want to entertain. I’d be going into full High School English Teacher mode for a question like that.

@hummingrain Sassy me makes a fantastic interviewee. Not necessarily one that gets hired, but fantastic nevertheless.

[interviewing for a python job]

“How would you reverse this string?”

str[::-1]

“If you couldn’t do that.”

"".join(reversed(str))

“No, if you couldn’t do that.”

“I’d stop messing with strings and figure out why we’re using a Python installation so broken that core functionality doesn’t work.”

Didn’t get the job.

@hummingrain Sounds awesome!

@catgoat @hummingrain it had the potential to turn into a really fun interview, but no.

Trying to figure out how to pin posts on Facebook.

Not trying real hard, mind you. I don’t check in that much.
