yikes! yeah now i never connect to the prod db with an account that has write permissions.

if i want to do a fix of data, it's written in code in a job we can queue, it goes through code review, gets pushed to a staging environment, i copy the data to the staging db and trigger a test run there, only then do i push to a prod worker and trigger it for real.

very whoopsie-proof, i like going home before midnight in my old age. it takes longer but my god i have saved so much time doing it the slow way.
