End of the night:
Me: don't leave your garbage in Grandma's car or she'll be mad at me!!
12 yr old: "yeah right, like anyone ever gets mad at you."
😂

Watched the 12 yr old, who is sitting across from me, literally sigh and roll his eyes and swipe away my text 😂
Kid: "... Because humans are the only animal that can be evil...."
Me: well but what's evil? What does that really mean?
Kid: ".. WHAT."
me: what??
Kid: "how can I answer that question?! Why do you always ask me these impossible questions!!"
Me: BECAUSE they're impossible.

Me: it's not a test or a truck. The greatest minds in the world have been thinking about this for thousands of years. It's just something to think about!
Kid: "why do you always want to know what I think!"
(At this point we were both cracking up, he was not genuinely distressed at all)
What's that meme, "the gen x urge"?
The Gen X urge to sit in the car until the good song on the radio is over.
(You will never guess what I'm doing right now even though I literally have this song as an mp3 on the phone on my hand.)
My BIL keeps saying, "Well, you know what AI is ~really useful for!" in all seriousness and I have a response to every single one of his examples. Oh, you're using it for citations? Oh, you're using it to design marketing posters? Oh, you're using it to write your emails to clients?
Come on, bro.

Insert hurt feelings from taking my fan work too seriously here I guess
Update on annoying coworker:
Apparently she asked my boss to have me do something completely different, so my boss went to her to find out what she ~really needs and it was.... a secret third thing!
I am logging off work early today.

So far today we have discussed JFK shooting, what the point of protesting is, why it doesn't work to just kill people you dislike, and whether ppl should be more afraid of getting bitten by a tegu or pitbull.
oh & ofc the house unamerican activities committee & the red scare.
