    In some ways I am glad Tim Cook came out of the closet because the way he did it was pretty classy, but also it will make the people who have been demanding that he come out of the closet to shut up about it.

    I am super annoyed at the slice of the population who feels like it is a thing he must do. Same with Anderson Cooper or any other front-facing gay/bi public figure.

    If you were an A lister in a heterosexual relationship with a no-name, there is absolutely ZERO fucking pressure to force you to talk about your relationship. None.

    And while Cook was never hiding it (his partner showed up with him to apple and other social functions, is in the crowd at keynotes, etc), he never made a stink about it because it isn't anyone's business whatsoever.

    I liked what he did but his excuse for not doing that earlier was that he wasn't an "activist," like it was a requirement for being open with LGBT sexuality.

    I wish making games was easy and not hard.

    I want to make tons of great games but I have no time next to the one dumb game I make.

    If making games was easy, there'd be no point to it...

    But if making games was easier I could make like the 80 cool game ideas I have instead of spending like a year and a half making one lousy virtual cooch simulator.

    I'm pretty sure that small laboratory websites are universally hilarious, because they foremost represent what one nerdy old PI who doesn't understand web design happens to think is cool.

    Also they are updated like once every 10 years.

    The legacy of 90s internet lives on in them; it's all low resolution gifs of spinning protein structures and quotes that are trying way too hard to make their research sound awesome.

    i have a friend who makes these websites as art projects

    he laments the loss of autoplay midi like whoa

    Professor's websites are a special kind of 90s internet, though.

    Like they're clearly trying to look respectable and professional, but no one in the lab is capable of it and/or cares enough.

    as a 90s college student, professors didn't really have websites. if they did they were hosted by geocities and had fuck all useful class related information. We also had to walk through the quad uphill both ways to get to the dining hall.

    That's the point, though! Professors are always a couple decades behind. The laboratory websites of today have only caught up with 90s.

    Its actually a fine excuse.

    He runs a company that caters to the masses. It is one of the most broadly liked companies in the world. Lots of my republican, socially conservative friends/clients have macbooks, iPhones, etc. Had he done this 7-10 years ago, he would have been making a business decision to hurt his brand in order to push a message, and put undue stress on him and his partner... and the calculus did not make sense for him to do so, and that is perfectly fine.

    Like I said, he never seemed ashamed to be gay. His partner is well known at Apple and the social stuff he does. He just didn't want his personal life under the microscope at the cost of affecting the company he works for or his own happiness. Seems fucking legit.

    My secretary is not at work today. But no one assigned me a secretary to cover. And I have these binders that a first year gave me with no labels on the spines. And I need my secretary to make labels for them. . . This is not a good situation.

    I can see the struggle.

    Skills once acquired left to wither and fallow, like a rich, overweight nobleperson who let their legs atrophy once they got slaves and a litter to be moved about in, forced to walk themselves to market.

    Ask a lower tier dude who has a secretary if you could borrow them for 30 minutes
