Family, death 

My father passed away last night. Spending time with family today and helping my mom sort things out. He went quietly, and it was a long time coming.

I'm okay. It's difficult, but I'm okay.

@tom similar to mom and gremlin energy but blended into a daiquiri

negative, burnout 

half of me needs to scream about everything bothering me and the other half is calm and collected and together i can just feel everything shutting down

negative, burnout 

i feel like im about to self-destruct. i hate that i've gotten into this cycle where i keep surviving my burnout so i keep letting it consume me.

there is a city park in a rich neighborhood not far from where i grew up. a lot of families from the surrounding poorer neighborhoods started using it, as is their right, so the rich people got their city council to start charging an admission fee to the park. this is illegal under state law but nothing has been done about it. i wonder why

What if we made gamer boys even angrier by shrinking tifa's boobs even more, all fanart exclusively gives her a-cups and muscled arms

Me looking at my collection of crop tops: I have prepared for this moment

Hitting 30ยฐC so you know what that means, gotta slut it up or else I'll literally die of heat exhaustion

burnout 

it's been weeks since ive had a chunk of time where I sat down and went "oh, i could do anything right now, i have nothing planned."

even when im taking breaks im consciously choosing to stop working on stuff and instead do something to relax a little

and im pretty good at keeping that balance at this point, but personally i can't wait till august rolls around and i finally get some time off

im aware i desperately need to open and clean my ps3 but i am: 1) lacking much in the realm of time; 2) lacking much in the realm of courage

Love wasting my entire lecture break waiting for the one neutral washroom to never get free

Nuclear take, JKR 

Glad people are finally realizing JKR sucks because honestly her books have tons of hard conservative ideology and gender essentialism and I'm so fucking tired of allies screaming about how great a series HP is

Was talking about Mastodon with an old-school sysadmin guy. We reached the realization that defederating from instances with no/bad moderation is essentially the same thing as blocking open relays back when you ran your own email server: open relays always end up getting used for spam, you block 'em to protect your users.

Email was and still is the first federated social network, so it already faced a lot of the same problems; we should study its solutions (and its failures).

mixed 

i'm fine. or i'll be fine. everything is just a lot right now
