Me coming home from a menial 8-5 job where I stare at screens of meaningless numbers all day while I fruitlessly try to plot my escape: "oh boy, a new Severance episode."

when I was younger I thought the subplot of Ender’s Game in which Ender’s siblings shitpost themselves into running the world was the least realistic part of the book I am coming around to the idea that it was by far the most realistic

I'm rereading my book Serving The Reich with increasing dismay, even horror. This, for example. Broaden "European" to "Western" and I have to say that I am no longer as confident in this statement as I was in 2013. That frightens me.

*to the tune of Pink Pony Club* Drag. Story. Time. I'm gunna keep on reading at the Drag. Story. Time.

New contract details are leaking, and it's not looking good.

You are tired because you watched sports, I am tired because I have severe depression. We are not the same.

Business idea: something internet related that works like it would have in 2007.

I love when I miss my SNRI because the iPhone alarm snooze just kind of... shuts off the alarm.

Jesus fucking christ

That Illegal Alien Deportation ASMR video the Trump admin posted to the official White House X account broke my brain. They are testing the limits of what people will accept seeing and their boldness will only get worse. But if I say what people should do about it I'll probably get put on a list, so

Checked my Twitter and it's like an apocalypse happened. My Following feed is just a couple local news sites, and the GNB highway conditions. It's like a radio that plays the shipping forecast on repeat.

My view of everything is that it would be better as a library.

My non-profit creation is really picking up steam. Had no idea there were so many groups hoping this service would happen. A lot of groups working in silos have the same needs, and should really talk more.

The Times spoke to people being trapped inside a Panama hotel after deportation from the US and the individual stories of horror are almost too much to bear www.nytimes.com/2025/02/18/w...

The fact that they told everyone that billionaires and pedophiles were running everything... it's ALWAYS an admission

My whole family starts crying as the judge sentences me to get on a commercial flight

Set up my muted words finally. Looking forward to the 20% drop in heart rate.

I think one of the reasons conservatives hate him so much is the fact that he genuinely loves his kids. Something foreign to a lot of right wing dads.

Ok, pirates bad, I'm a good corporate citizen, etc. But why the fuck did Severance take so long to get torrented this week?

Taking tattoo suggestions. Never had one, need guidance.

Happy flag day!

I consider myself far left - until a REAL far left person posts, and then I remember that's why people say they hate the far left.

I very recently accepted an invitation to a friendly neighbour's house party just so that I could play and hang out with their very cute and very good golden retriever dog for the entire party.

If I had a nickel for every time that I found out I had a new half-sibling online, I'd have a few nickels- which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened SIX SEPARATE TIMES 💀

I don't know how, but the Spotify app on my Mac manages to play unstoppable and unending music at full volume during an ad. It doesn't stop when the ad break is over, and it doesn't stop when I close Spotify. I have to Force Quit Firefox, which wasn't playing anything, to get it to stop.

In 1992 I told my parents I wanted to go to space camp, they said they would think about it. Maybe this is the year they decide.

Every sane person needs to be vehemently against this ever happening which I guess means PBS has some insane people working there.

At 41 I was told to start learning Power BI, but instead I have been looking into drawing my pension from Costa Rica.

I'm tired of poor people and minorities always trying to ruin my life. Fortunately, hedge funds and multinational corporations are here to stand up for me.

I think I've found a way to articulate what bothers me about the trajectory of the modern tech industry (and to some extent... society). We are on this Earth to provide for each other. That's the "mission" of humanity as I see it. This is incompatible with what the tech industry seeks to do.

Whoopsie doopsie, no more free press.

I should only get benefits from living in a society. If I also have obligations that's communism
