Cleaning sure is a hell of a lot more fun when you can listen to your music at full blast.

Today has been the morning of spending 5-15 minutes writing a comment and then thinking "You know what? This argument is not a good place to put my energy right now." and then deleting it. Rinse. Repeat.

This Chrome extension to find which of the people you follow on Twitter are on Bluesky seems to have worked pretty well. chromewebstore.google.com/detail/sky-f...

I'm pleased to see so many people I know getting on this site lately. I have my reasons for not being too active on this site yet, but once I resolve some things I plan for this to be my main public facing social media presence.

I totally forgot this site existed until a friend on Facebook posted they were now on it.

Working on the sprinkler system today...it strikes me how much trying to weave around a lawn full of active, rotating sprinklers without getting wet feels like being in a Super Mario Brothers game.

I watched The Marvel's last night, and was pretty happy with it. Absolutely silly popcorn fare, but that's honestly what I was hoping for. I could have done without the musical bit, and there's some moments of tonal whiplash, but I was never bored.

Sometimes social media feels like microdosing hundreds of virtual friendships to stave off the loneliness of a society that trains us that our needs should be met by commercial products and services rather than each other.

The normal point of failure for me and new social media platforms tends to be that not enough of my friends adopt the platform for me to not crawl back to established platforms. I think this is a common problem that hamstrings new platforms. I'm not sure what can be done about this issue.

I finally get to check this place out. At first, I wasn't super into the idea of a new social media platform whose hook seems to be that Twitter 2.0, but now that I'm here I'm feeling a bit of excitement for a fresh start on a new platform while I'm in such a transitional stage of my own life.
