i feel like the culture of the fediverse shifts a little bit every week or so. on one side, it's quite dynamic and satisfying. on the other, it leaves me with an exhausting, low-key fear that if i step away then ill never be able to keep up with things.

when i was a kid, i remember giving a presentation on how the internet would bring people together and help end hatred. that was a while ago, and obviously it didn't work out that way.

still, i find that i am personally able to make friends that i would never have been able to make if the internet wasn't a thing. that, at least, makes me hopeful for the future, even though today and every day can be depressing.

in the future.... will we... will we have canned pizza??

i'm still getting used to the windows subsystem thing. i have to say it can be a little weird to really think about this thing sometimes.

like..... what dimension is this?

i feel like the latest How to Train Your Dragon movie became so overloaded in cishet romance that i Just Can't

it was like there was a need to erase any trace of any possibility of ambiguity anywhere with the design of the toothless love interest

i'm just like... okay

avatars that sit still for a while and then blink are objectively the best

the boost button can also function as a silent call-out post

changing your avatar after you've had the same one for a while is a great way to throw people off a bit

i don't feel like i have to be ashamed because i'm not a "perfect programmer"

anyone that thinks that they're perfect in any area is probably mediocre and near to drowning in their own priviledge

the problem with being a very introverted introvert is that the first thing to run dry is always my ability to talk to the people that i want to talk with, then i have pretty much no control over recovery time

this gets even more complicated when you're an extroverted very introverted introvert.. oh dear.
