I am in desperate need of a personal software project because without one, I am going to fuck up the codebase at work.

I don't think this is the endorsement you think it is.

I need to know who decided that the hold music needs to fade out every 30 seconds so that a robot can tell me that I'm still on hold.

I made my own belts a few years ago and as I work on weight management, I find myself needing to move to the next holes on the belt. Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure that's just because leather stretches over time.

The sigil was drawn in salt and ash, the candles lit at the pentagram points, the incantation declaimed. There was a shimmer - a demon appeared. "Curious. What ritual is this?" "I got it from ChatGPT. I included all protections in my prompt!" "I see," the demon said and stepped out of the sigil.

I really need NPR to stop playing video game lofi. It freaks me out every time.

I’m not sure who has more contempt for their users: web developers or civil engineers designing pedestrian walkways.

Paid $5 for a “mobile data top-off” and I’m still getting throttled. Feeling like I just got scammed by Ting.

got into a rather extreme kink lately (running an e-mail server)

"how can you support yourself in uncertain times" and they just mean Donald Trump... he's literally the only uncertain thing

Skype pulled most incomprehensible bag fumble of all time. A 15 year head start. Total ubiquity. Added to the Oxford English Dictionary by 2014. Only to fall nuts-first into irrelevance at the exact moment when all other communication was made illegal. Truly, the Pete Best of videoconferencing. RIP.

Today in dumb UX design: Walmart's Store List will automatically scroll to your current store even when you put in a different area to search, requiring the user to scroll back up to see the results they actually care about.

"Is It Unethical To Remove The Foxgirl From Anubis" - the greatest thread in the history of Hacker News, locked by a moderator after 12239 pages of heated debate

the thing about global right wing movements going all in on transphobia is that it makes it basically impossible to ignore how foundational the construction and enforcement of gender is to every part of what is wrong with this world. thankfully for them, cis people are very good at ignoring things

If you think about it, Espresso is Steampunk.

oh, that's the maintainer of spdlog retweeting zionist propaganda...

People sometimes forget to put filters in their aeropress. Today, I forgot to put my aeropress in my aeropress

Am I crashing or just tired

Constantly disturbed that Chrome's page search has no case-sensitive option. Like it's *more* work to do a case insensitive search.

THANK YOU AGAIN GOOGLE FOR GIVING ME A NON-ANSWER TO THE QUESTION I WAS TRYING TO GET AN EXACT ANSWER TO. "you may be subject to import fees" YES I'M AWARE, MY SEARCH WAS "ebay brazil to us import fees" I WANT TO KNOW HOW FUCKING MUCH

I missed my window to buy a Weber grill from Costco 😭

*pulling my headphones away from my ear to make sure i’m not blaring my audio in this coffee shop*

I will no longer consider them "centrists". From now on they are simply "mid"

Why the fuck does it take 5-10 seconds for the W11 calculator app to load.

Here I was taking a nice procrastinatory nap when I get a knock on the door. Surprise maintenance call.

It's said to be a fey forest, where you can get lost in time, years passing unnoticed. I wander aimlessly, lightly touching boles of ancient trees. Suddenly I emerge into sunlight. I blink. Who knows how long I've- "There you are! You were gone for half an hour, we were getting worried!" Damn.

I’ve been employed for one month, given a relatively simple task, and I’m already crashing out and have been for at least two weeks.

Feeling nostalgic about Windows XP. I'm not sure that's allowed.

I wish horrible things for every manager that had a hand in making Windows 11 what it is. This is the most infuriating user experience I’ve ever dealt with

This may be the first time I’ve ever bought Girl Scout cookies despite naming all my electronics after them

I was sent a new monitor for work and set it up along with my old monitor. I'm wondering if I'm really going to be able to use a 21:9 and a 16:9. It feels like a lot.

New keyboard feels and sounds so good. Going to start writing a novel just so I can experience my keyboard more.

I have received a job offer. Woo.

"You promised me to whoever killed the dragon!" the princess said. "But-" the king said. "And she did!" "But she's a dragon too!" "And hot." #CrossRepost

Putting in a maintenance order with the leasing office.

Tomorrow in DC we’re protesting DC Children’s Hospital for ending all care to trans people under 19 I would love to see my followers join me in protesting a move that’s already impacting folks very close to me If not now, when?

Once a year, the swordmaster saw students seeking advice on other weapons. At the end of the long line of people holding axes, spears, and tools, a girl stood, her hands empty. "What is your weapon?" "Anger. Anger and spite." The swordmaster smiled. "Finally, an advanced pupil!" #CrossRepost

The 500mg Tylenol is not helping

My wrists are in pain. Maybe I should’ve stretched before lifting the uncle back into his chair.

I overdid it on my morning constitutional
