For sale locally, one cat statue.
A clay statue of a cat. It had a human face for some reason, and the tail is very fat. Other than that it is very much a cat. It has ginger striped fur and dark paws.

๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐ŸŽคโ€ฆI still got some #punk rock cred! So, it's last session after 3 days of #UndoneCS. I admit I zoned out, had trouble concentrating on Nils Bonfils' talk โ€œCultivating a Historicist Sensibility through Permacomputingโ€.
Through my mind haze, I hear Nils say the word โ€œ#anarchistโ€, then, โ€œ#anticapitalistโ€. Suddenly I'm wide awake & completely focused.

Many companies over-hired as a type of skills hoarding.

I had never thought this was a "thing" - but perhaps my middle daughter was a "victim". A few years ago her first job out of college was with Oracle, in the marketing department. I had a few conversations with her about what she was doing. She said that she was working with a team doing "direct" marketing - but from what I could gather there was little actual work going on, and the few phone calls that were made were superficial and even rather perfunctory. She left the job after about 6 months out of shear boredom.
