i had a recruiter chat in '23 encourage me to start making posts so I'd be noticed and when i asked "why would i want to be noticed at random on linkedin when my skills are very specific and refined" the subject changed very quickly.
i think algorithm brain is the source of the mudslide.

truly, it is hell
sitting down to play blackjack wearing a gingerbread house costume, nodding at the dealer like they know what's up
just be ready for some very, very particular interpretations of the text
i tried so many strategies to take the goddess of rot down and the only thing that could carry me through was bloodhound step. it's so good!!
Holy SHIT someone found the test pressing of Robert Johnson's Cross Road Blues and it is clear as a PIN www.openculture.com/2026/04/reco...
yeah, i think i am having some psychological resistance because it tastes like it's gonna curdle in my craw. it's a flavour that shouldn't exist
I know everyone is bitter, frustrated and traumatized. The world is growing increasingly unhinged by the day and the economy is squeezing us tighter every moment.
But the least we can do is hold fire until we know what we're shooting at. Don't go lashing out at everything based on gut feelings.
hell i was writing c/c++ in '99-'02 and I'd sweat when i thought about moving further away from human syntax

Piderman (a red guy with big eyes) and Baman (a purple guy with a goofy tooth grin) are friends, and they get on great
Baman says "wouldn't it be marvellous if Piderman and I lived together?!"
Piderman says "finally, someone I can practise come over da house with in the same house! I can't wait!"
Piderman gazes thoughtfully at a jar of peabnut bubber
I put Baman Piderman in Tomodachi Life and they are best friends and they live together
thank you @smallbu.bsky.social for these sweet sweet boys
cracked my first open about 20 minutes ago and i am finding this is a dew that simply doesn't work for me. bummer
"why didn't they use [x method or library]?"
well you see it didn't exist. game devs were banging rocks together to figure out how to have more than 8 colours.
Every day I wake up and wonder why so few of you care about shojo manga
it's very effective for describing the kind of despair, yeah
I loved this book so much and finding out the guy's other work is mostly birds was revelatory. the birds... they hide such darkness...
A black and white illustration showing the character Molly Millions from the works of William Gibson.
Pinterest threw this up and I love it so much; wicked cool depiction of Molly Millions. The related images section tells me that this was an illustration for an album or an audiobook or a combination of both, not quite sure.
Please slide into the comments if you happen to know who the artist is.
honestly, dr. monforton, i think you are in some small way responsible
i think maybe 60% of the weird dudes would be way less weird about her if she was wearing, say, baggy overalls under the coat.
kinda jealous. i just had the toilet tissue type
jc denton: says here there's a huge military complex under the ballroom
jacobson: I haven't even breached their servers, JC! how'd you figure this out?
jc denton: receipt in the bathroom
back, select, etc. yeah. comms are usually the first valid window to cycle to because they're the most recent - tbh a pretty smart design choice.
isn't this just an html div bar at some point
the loss of third spaces means some never learn to meet people, and the deskilling of living makes it harder to maintain
plus genuinely learning to prepare your own meals enables you to cook for friends or a date. the only person I know who'd turn down my cooking would only do so because he has a lot of food allergies, and he'd still come hang out anyway. the problem of loneliness is one... kinda put upon people.
