The thing about the MAGA Crowd: they only have an empty slogan. It has power, but it doesn’t have substance. It is an illusion easily dispelled because it doesn’t understand what makes America great in the first place. It’s a shared commitment to each other.

Breathtaking.

Best performance I've seen in ages. The whole cast is outstanding too. 👑

Today is Saturday. The perfect day to turn on Advanced Data Protection to protect yourself against increasingly authoritarian governments being seized by the worst people alive. Stay safe. Encrypt. 🙂 support.apple.com/en-us/108756

Underlying all the cruelty, all the hate, all the violence, is a single thread: when confronted with a reality which does not suit their tastes, conservatives demand reality change. Since they cannot *actually* change reality, they demand that everyone *act* as if their preferred reality were real.

My dude here speaking my language aus.social/@bartreardon...

I took a week off for no reason whatsoever. No plans, no commitments, just taking each day as it comes. Day one and I'm eating peanut M&M's for breakfast.

Nazis are bad. I think we should make that clear.

Dooooood MinutePhysics drawings. I need to find out what videos these are from now.

The theme to Severance but you're sitting in an airport.

I kid you not, @itch.io has been taken down by Funko of "Funko Pop" because they use some trash "AI Powered" Brand Protection Software called Brand Shield that created some bogus Phishing report to our registrar, iwantmyname, who ignored our response and just disabled the domain

The original Skeleton Crew 🪦

Also, to anyone who thinks there was a halcyon innocent age in Bluesky's past where no one ever had to banish others from their timelines: There is a reason "Don't engage, just block" is so deeply etched into the Bluesky collective psyche. We've been doing that since the "Bluesky Elder" days, y'all.

fuck yeah

I can't help but wonder how much better the Twentieth Anniversary Macintosh would have sold if they had just included an air fryer.

Dopameme: The joy one gets after having an entire conversation using nothing but screenshots and gifs.

Street art.

Did you know that by substituting your morning coffee with green tea, you can eliminate up to 93% of what little joy you have left?

Okay, y’all… I have finally decided that retreat is the better part of valor. Bringing some rainbow energy over to these blue skies. #bydhttmwdi

440th day on this site 100th post I have a feeling the cadence might pick up a bit

Alright, I did it, I made a starter pack! Am I doing bluesky right yet? go.bsky.app/JdHEiGM

Ok, trying this out. My attempt at a starter pack for the MacAdmins space: go.bsky.app/6BMLjcj

As someone who grew up online, it does depress me to see how many people genuinely can’t fathom why someone would want to be on social media beyond reasons linked to building clout so you can make money. It’s fun to talk to interesting people from around the world. That’s always been my reason.

Current mood - Motel instant coffee and single serve "one is not enough but two is too much" uht milk.

Oh, catching up on the news. #macadmins are here. My people 🙂

What the hell happened overnight? Got like 50 extra followers all of a sudden

A lot of new follows today for some reason. Here's a photo of an aeroplane I took recently.

Crossed the 400km mark in the mg. 385 of those in ev mode.

What did i miss?

I should post here more often.
