birdsite, glutton for punishment, gamers 

Lately I noticed I pay attention too much to gamers being angry on Twitter about insignificant things like "feminism and SJWs ruining my vidya."

I mean, it's a good laugh, but these people being *so angry* at various things, or going on the defensive about racist memes...

It stops being funny and it starts being sad.

why am I even listening to my dad?!

I'm the tech guy, he's the one that constantly thought his old slow computer and the internet taking a while to load pages where the same problem.

Bonus: It's a prebuilt HP machine so everything's jammed in there so tight that it's hard to remove the drive anyway.

All this because of vague paranoia that "someone might steal your info" or something garbage.

I just tried for about a half hour to remove an old hard drive from my last PC which I last used in 2014.

Couldn't get it out.

Honestly I'm not gonna bother further because it's probably gonna end up in a landfill somewhere.

It is now past midnight here and it is officially my birthday. 🎂

It's TYOOL 2018 and I'm finally watching Zootopia.

I guess it's a requirement to stay furry, right?

Hugs for all my friends going through rough times right now.

I wish I could do more but most of my friends are far away. And teleportation technology hasn't been made yet.

this week has been nothing but falling asleep at 5PM and being up all night.

Thankfully it's been getting better but man when it's thrown off-kilter it *really* takes me forever to get it right again.

I realized I went on an angry tangent on the birdsite while I was tired.

Never * while tired, folks.

Watching Vinesauce play shovelware garbage fuels my soul this morning.

Heck, more people should play junky late '90s-early 2000s games because it's kinda fun in a bad way.

curious about multiple masto instances, involves kink 

there's a small bit of me that wants to make an "AD" at the.resize.club just so I can occasionally talk about my weird kinks there or something.

I don't know how one manages multiple mastodon instances since they're on different networks. Unless it's easier than I thought.

@TonicBH "you know what's a good idea? forcing people to work in poorly lit and stressful spaces while seated for 8 hours a day, 5 days in a row, every week"

That moment when you talk about seeing a friend suffering from burnout and realize it's not just *one* friend suffering from burnout.

It's *several* friends.

Office culture is garbage, folks.

New: I write about Carol Vorderman's Sudoku, a Sudoku game endorsed by a game show personality some of you *might* have heard of.

random 5AM thought:

Maybe we should abolish microwave ovens.

My birthday's in six days and I don't know what to do that day or what to ask for gift-wise.

Is this what it's like to be old? :(

I slept through most of today and thanks to watching a let's play before I fell asleep, Mya's Everything or Nothing is stuck in my head.

Damn it.
