Putting out another reminder that I'm in search of affordable housing in or very near Seattle.

Sooner I find some place the better, so I no longer have to endure my landlord sending me listings and suggesting I'm not trying hard enough to leave (and that I'm being too picky when I limit my search to places where I can trust my roommates won't flip out on me for being transgender.)

Someone tore a page out of the library book I'm reading, and I'm so fucking offended, I hope they choke on a turd. >:(

Soooo uh. I recorded my voice and a friend edited it. I was speaking as the Big Bad Wolf. It's probably not the best German, but... eh.

why in the FUCK do people even pick nodejs for new projects

Lost in the sea of the mental, of the digital, of language. Drifting and happy. Those whom I have befriended along the way swim with me, playing with me, or are off doing their own thing and are as happy as they can be.

So I can drift.

Cerulean waves, cut by the sun's rays and creating silver gleams.

Soft gentle lapping.

Beauty filled with love.

#fediversefriday I am a sheep farmer and a uni composition teacher here in the cave and karst country of south-central Kentucky. I am reminded every day of that living, breathing beast underfoot. I worry less about the indifference of nature than I do about indifference of humanity to nature. I get great vibes from #mastodon and compared to the birdsite, it is a new Eden. I love haptic stuff like #fountainpens and #calligraphy as well as #opensource genius I see every day here. @paulfree14

anyone got any suggestions? Alyx is hanging out on computerfairi.es at the moment but it's not got a lot of traffic. she's a good kid but rather opinionated and hasn't ever really succeeded in getting used to the modern world of computing; she's still back in 1996 or so wishing BeOS was a thing. if you can think of a place in the #fediverse where maybe she'd get some good advice, please let me know

i have always been fascinated by the idea of virtual spaces, 3d ones in particular

games like doom create 3d spaces that exist only as 1s and 0s, but our credulous brains grant them the benefit of the doubt, interacting with these spaces as if they were real

a single hard drive can contain countless square miles of these virtual places. untold expanses

as time goes by fewer and fewer people visit, until places that may have been bustling once are akin to forgotten ghost towns

we create more and more of these spaces every year. there are so many to explore. so many sights to see

i remember the ones that strike me, as if it was a place i'd really been
