It actually is very important that you do things that you take pleasure in, regularly. That is part of how you survive the things that feel like they are going to destroy you.

So, I did a talk at
#RubyConf
. A keynote, an incredible honor. But before I did it, I updated my slides with my BlueSky (and Mastodon) handles. When I came off stage, I saw this, and itโs been literal years since Iโve seen this on socials after a talk. Iโm so glad we all picked a place finally.
