You know, I see so many of you on here working on cool technology projects, doing all this cool stuff with hardware, and here I am, spending 5 hours just trying to get my phone to *boot* again. This has been a frustrating 5 hours with no good conclusion other than "Well, I can get calls and texts...I hope. Good enough for today." *sigh*

mh (-) but with some humour 

You know, as someone with depression, I find Dan Olson's video "How to cook: Eggs with depression" to be amusing, but inaccurate. Honestly, it's more like:
1) Decide you want to cook eggs
2) Pull out pan
3) Decide you really didn't want eggs all that badly and go back to bed

no context, lewd 

"BREAK OUT THE TITTY SPEED GUN!"

So, I know I said I needed to do this four days ago, but I finally made an appointment to talk to a doctor about my testicle problems. Hopefully, thursday, we get some answers (and hopefully no bad news)

So, while I'm not cut out to be any of y'all's adopted mom (I'm not a good mother and I'm a bit young to be any of y'all's mom anyways), I will happily be your adopted cousin or sister. So, uh, if that's something you'd like, I'm here.

Seriously. Give me an hour, and I'll be right back to sober. What the fuck? Who designed this. That alcohol was disgusting and I can't even get anywhere near drunk off the amount I have?! Fucking hell.

Me, pre-drinking: I should make sure I don't accidentally start going out and causing trouble if I get drunk.

Me, post-drinking: I wonder what my BAC is about anyways. *Checks* Are you fucking kidding me?

I had 15 mL of whiskey. It was disgusting. The highest my BAC'll get? ~0.02%. And that's a perfect storm situation for *45 mL*. My BAC probably topped out around 0.01%. I'm nowhere near drunk. According to the internet, I'm lucky to be feeling *any* effects whatsoever.

alc, - 

It's not even 15:00 and I'm considering getting drunk. Like, actual drunk not "uwu I had some alcohol" drunk. I know it's a bad idea, and I probably won't, but the fact I'm considering it should give you an idea of how shit my day's going.

Well, this is a morning. Fuckin', I'm pretty sure I've got a varicocele, and I'm currently lying in bed trying to deal with the pain from that rather than going to class. Additionally, my phone's updated to Android 10, which is completely throwing me off. The morning could be much worse, but fucking hell it could be better

random reminder about content warnings 

a lot of people's use of content warnings is not to remove content from their feed. it's so they can see "oh, this is gonna be about depression, i should make sure i'm mentally ready to read it" before they do read it.

because filters to mute words don't have an option to place a CW over them automatically, filters are *not* always fitting for this - we want to see certain discussions of sexual assault, we just need that layer on top so that we don't run headfirst into a trigger unprepared.

A discussion of vuln nicknames in a discord server I'm in

Show thread

CVE or nickname? 

General audience needs to know: Catchy nickname. Fuckin' kitsch it up. Heartbleed, spectre, meltdown. Whatever'll get it on the evening news.

Class of vulns, multiple CVEs, technical audience: A nickname is in order, though maybe don' t go too kitschy on this one.

Single vuln/Single CVE, technical audience: CVE.

Or, ya know, do whatever feels right. I'm not the boss of you. This is just my thoughts, but I'm no professional. Your thoughts are probably just as good as mine.

So, while I'm not cut out to be any of y'all's adopted mom (I'm not a good mother and I'm a bit young to be any of y'all's mom anyways), I will happily be your adopted cousin or sister. So, uh, if that's something you'd like, I'm here.
