Writing hacky code for websites and hacky jokes for human sights (@mcsweeneys, @PointsinCase, @SlackjawHumor, etc.) On hiatus here http://mastodon.social/@davepowers
If you visit @mcsweeneys every day but immediately leave after finding there is still no content tagged with “collective bargaining” or “union busting,” then boy do I have the piece for you! mcsweeneys.net/articles/no-ou…
As a reader of this newsletter since the beginning (fact check: since newsletter #35), it's been a goal of mine to have a piece featured. Happy to sneak in this week with one from the archives!
I've used third-party apps to access Twitter ever since I signed up, so the new guy killing those off was less than ideal for me. Going to give the new @tapbots Mastodon client a shot if you want to give me a follow over there. 🐘 mastodon.social/@davepowers

Watching the Harry & Meghan documentary and I’m shocked and saddened to learn that the Duke of Sussex is a nepo baby.
Multiple people had to work over the weekend to write up this terrible new policy that was then immediately scrapped. web.archive.org/web/2022121817…
If anyone has a hankering to drop $40K on a nativity scene that looks like the one from Home Alone but isn’t that one I will tell you where it is for a $10K finder’s fee.
Sorry but I can’t stand soccer with all the fake injuries. I prefer REAL football with REAL injuries that result in players getting stretchered off the field and left with permanent brain damage.
I myself voraciously advocated for firings to appease investors after guaranteeing that quarterly revenue would increase by “infinity” dollars. (by @dave_powers) pointsincase.com/articles/we-ar…
One more this week, courtesy of @PointsinCase, dedicated to anyone affected by the recent wave of layoffs. And special thanks to my LinkedIn feed for practically writing this for me. pointsincase.com/articles/we-ar…

I misread the presale instructions and not only did I waste hours in line, but now the Capital One Café barista is refusing to sell me Taylor Swift tickets and also calling the police.
Keep elections free, but charge $8 for the “I voted” sticker.
My favorite part of watching a professional football game on television is seeing a slow motion replay of a player unfastening the chin strap from their helmet.
It’s a rare sight, but every so often I will encounter a person in Boston during October wearing a full-on parka and I wish I could tag and track them to see if they survive the winter.
Getting detained by a gaggle of TSA security agents for refusing instructions to NOT pet the bomb/drug-sniffing dog
One time for a work icebreaker someone asked what the weirdest thing you’ve ever eaten was and I decided to play it safe and go with “ham” but then people got mad and said that ham wasn’t a weird thing to eat.
