I prevented $4k in fraud, got to finally use my office, and I opened a business account for the first time! It's for a law firm so that's cool. Feels pretty good!
I should have gone through my 4-months worth of open tabs and bookmarked the important ones weeks ago, because my computer just crashed randomly
and due to an unfortunate collision between the system default of "open all the shit that was open before the crash" and an automated database authentication script that pops open your browser without asking, I didn't hit the 'restore tabs' button.
I have no idea what was there. Important things, no doubt. Research papers. Hardware shopping carts. A funny video.
All those tabs, lost, like tears in the rain.

I have 99 tabs open on my phone and I really need to get this shit under control before the exact same thing happens to me.
The Red Cross sent me a card for donating and they say I’m O- not O+ like I thought all this time? I assume they know.
Welcome to the rare blood club!
For real though we should exchange contact information in case either one of us needs blood. Or in case they decide to finally harvest our precious red gold.

Maybe your work day sucked, but at least the robots you work with didn't rebel and assault you and several dozen of your co-workers via chemical warfare (interestingly, something the robots themselves are fairly immune to).

Wth is wrong with you people. Close your tabs (occasionally)!

Now I’m on to my second and far more important job, chasing a four-year-old up and down a bouncy slide.

Sucky news and a cautionary tale to those in the US opting not to enroll in health insurance - an old buddy of mine was in an accident this weekend that has left him paralyzed from the waist down. He had just started a new job and was to be without coverage until January 1. Now, between EMS response, ICU care and a very long recovery while unemployed ahead, it’s estimated he’ll be on the hook for at least $300k.
This crazy shit happens, and it happens to people you know. Until we fix the system, consider the risks.

Yeah, my parents live in one of the worst healthcare markets in the country, but stubbornly kept paying two grand a month for a high-deductible catastrophic plan.
Turns out this was a good strategy, as my mom ended up with a rare, aggressive form of breast cancer that would have cost them over a million dollars over the past three years between all the chemo and the surgeries. Without that insurance, they would have lost everything and then she would have died, because there's no way the combined properties of me and my sister and my parents come anywhere near that much money.
Which really sucks, because I've definitely had years where me with a master's degree and a spouse with a bachelor's degree pulled down a combined annual income lower than my parents' insurance premiums, and our jobs definitely didn't include insurance benefits. So we lived uninsured, and I guess if one of us had gotten sick we'd have died in the gutter?
Anyway, I'm beginning to think that American healthcare is bad, and I'm just shocked that there's not a giant acrimonious political debate about it that's been going on for the last quarter century.

One of my supervisors will as a matter of routine have so many tabs open that you cannot even tell any of them apart anymore. No icon, no nothing. It's fucking insane.

The bookmark function is right there! Close your tabs!

For one thing, everything I really really really need is stuffed into one subfolder called "gunk".
I envy your organizational skills have evolved to the point where you have relabeled, "unsorted" to "gunk". I'm still stuck with everything being in the former.
Today was a good day. For various reasons I did not get much accomplished the past three days.
Today I was alone in my office in silence and I got caught up to date on AP and reconciled accounts and, while I didn’t get any filing done, I did get my paperwork piles sorted into more organized piles.

I have like, a billion tabs open right now.
But I might look at some of them later, you guys.

I don't get people who leave tons of tabs open. My browser is an elegant, streamlined Swiss watch of dick jokes and weather updates.
Then again, I haven't deleted a Gmail message since 2009, since I've narrowly kept ahead of the storage limits. So I have my own share of people who think I'm a monster.

real talk: I have a visual memory and if something isn't in front of me or I can't follow a landscape of memory breadcrumbs to it, I will forget it exists. Bookmarks for me are the digital equivalent of putting something neatly away in a drawer - it will never again see the light of day. So if I have something I need to get back to, but won't be triggered to remember by anything else in the environment, I leave it open as a tab because otherwise it will be lost forever.
This is also why my desk has layers up to a foot deep in places.

I use 3 different things to mitigate tabs everywhere: Toby, an extension that takes over your new tab page to give you button style links that you can group by category. OneTab, a session save for the multiple tabs I keep open at times when it becomes too many, and bookmarks of course.

Spray ink at it and scuttle away.
Fortunately I'm leaving... now!

Yeah, I had a fairly large lunch of noodles, pork, mushrooms, and leeks, and while good, it's basically trying to put me to sleep.

Once you find a layout you like, save it as a template and just swap out text and figures for the rest of your career.

unsorted is a different folder!
129 tabs open between two Chrome accounts I keep logged in.

My tabs will still be open, even in death.
If I need to go back to something I will bookmark it.
