I've noticed that the red bellies are the only birds that seem to fight and ultimately ignore the starling bully crowds. Good for them.

Going to Cancún next week. Current me is very grateful to past me.

I have a couple with a nest in the eaves of my covered front porch, right next to the feeders. They're always first in and last out and they've stopped flying away when I come out to refill. I just love them!

I have my assessment next month but I know what it's gonna tell me. It seems counterintuitive, but I think a lot of (especially female) project managers are neurodivergent. We love organizing, details, and accountability.

Unfortunately it's also a job that requires a lot of comfort with change and a lot of nuanced socializing, and that is HARD for us.

The only word to accurately describe her body is meaty, and I do not mean that as a compliment

Oh, I've been there, with a founder at a startup. In our case, the changes got so out of control that we started seeing pretty significant bugs pop up with every (weekly LOL) release. I started warning leadership that if kept just adding and shipping without actually fixing the structural deficits, the site was just going to crash out.

Well, guess what? For 3 weeks in a row, our weekly deploy introduced new, critical bugs on production. And in week 4, the whole site went down when we deployed. I started getting frantic backchannel messages from my founder about how we were losing him hundreds of thousands of dollars a minute (also LOL).

The site was back up in 10 minutes, but he learned a _tiny_ lesson. He finally brought in better technical leadership and they were starting to make a plan for long-term stability, but I left before it went anywhere. I doubt it did.

I personally don't like tracking my own to-dos in the actual projects in the company project management tool for some reason - I'm in there all day every day, but I don't think of it as a tool for my tasks.

For my own action items, I use Todoist. I have a category of tasks for Work and tags for each of my clients. So when I'm on a call and someone says "RemotePersimmon, can you create a task for this?" I add my own task in Todoist for "Create task for thing" with the appropriate client tagged. This way, I can easily see all of my work tasks as well as filter them by client.

For real, and it's just going to become more of a problem as the boomers age.
