9/13

i'm thankful that my work presentation on my project was well-received and i'm happy with the other progress i'm making on my project this week. i'm thankful we decided to anthropomorphize the bot at its center as a puppy.

i'm thankful that at my psych appointment, we increased my anti-anxiety medication dosage.

i'm thankful for this audio of a 17 year old pilot landing a plane with broken landing gear.

i'm thankful for inbox, which is the app where i have written all of these thank you notes and whose features and UI i will miss greatly. i'm thankful, as a person who has never been into calendars and who would rather get teeth pulled than use a to-do-list app, the reminders feature, which allowed me to embed new and recurring tasks i needed to complete directly in the email inbox which is the center of my digital life, is something that has been very helpful to me.

i'm thankful for the headline "beat the meatles" and for this excellent thread of beatles sex puns (i'm thankful to have contributed "hey splooge / right on my ass" and, this morning while taking miso out, to have thought of a potential next line, which would be "take that bad dong / and make me wett-er").

i'm thankful for this list of boy suffixes, especially for the cherry on top of the last one.

i'm thankful for ezra klein's podcasts, which (on his show) often feature in-depth interviews with intelligent people and (on the weeds) thoughtful discussions with journalists i respect, even though i almost always find the opinions and arguments he personally advances to live somewhere on a scale from "washed but relatively inoffensive" to ":jerk off motion:" to "fuck right off".

i'm thankful to hope that cynthia nixon wins the democratic primary for the governorship of new york.
