Oh my.

@Mediaite conservative writer Isaac Schorr misread the Twitter account @joinmastodon as "John Mastodon," and said that the open source social media software was named after this imaginary person. mediaite.com/opinion/hypocrisy

It's just like buying shoes or headphones. Past a certain point, you just get so sick of them breaking all the time that you buck out for the best quality, most expensive one you can realistically pay for, in the interests of never having to do that again.

I've probably bought $1600 worth of office chairs in the last decade or so, and they've all failed for whatever reason. Bad or leaky gas cylinders, broken screws, wobbly bases, bent parts, broken casters. It's about time I bought chairs that friggin work.

So I bought chairs identical to the ones I use at work. One for me, one for Mom. Merry Christmasbirthday, Mom.

Nothing is more "Tired of This Shit" than spending over $800 for a desk chair.

Except spending over $1600 for *two* desk chairs.

No matter what the world throws at me, I can always consider that cats still exist. And that thought sustains me.

Apple's hardware aesthetics have an almost terraforming effect: the sleek MacBook makes the rest of your desk look cluttered and irregular, their stores feel like alien temples you must assimilate into the customs of. I would like technology to feel more like going down to a local co-op hardware store where a lesbian sells you a hammer you will own for 30 years.

I have written a Python script that takes my Mastodon feed and turns it into #teletext pages, and I consider this time well spent.

Crank up the Barry Leitch soundtrack, because only Amiga makes this possible.

work stress 

that feeling of needing to be in a "sync meeting" in "10 minutes" but it's supposed to involve your coworker who's better at taking notes than you are, but they're on furlough for unclear reasons that I'm not technically supposed to know about and the meeting head doesn't know about any of it either, so all you can do is vaguetoot about it and listen to hold music until the meeting happens, with a pit in your stomach and dread in your heart

@sandofsky
'what problem are you trying to solve by screwing in the light bulb'

'Maybe there is an easier way to accomplish what you are asking.'

'Have you tried IlluminationLibrary'

'Just use flashlights. Light bulbs are absurdly inefficient.'

'I work during the day so I don't need to change bulbs. Have you tried that?'
