Years ago I lovingly built a whole ass, full stack, ✨very cute✨journaling application so I could always have one journal and use it on-the-go instead of keeping many many journals Only for me to buy a new journal in every city I go to because I forgot one and I like writing with a pen better 💀

Writing code you think is good and it errors is sad, but normal. Writing code you think should error and it runs green is terrifying.

It’s Thursday, and you know what that means If you make me context switch, I am calling the cops

Nothing makes me feel more powerful than removing shitty cookie acceptance banner HTML elements (with no reject button) in dev tools Same thing goes for shitty paywall elements ugh If hostile popups dominate your UI, but I need the information therein, I smell a challenge

Pro tip: does someone have documentation you need to access but you’re in us-east-1 but AWS isn’t fixed yet??? Set your vpn to literally anywhere else in the world and reload. Now look at all of that sweet sweet documentation

I love when the commit logs tell a story with a happy ending

When the backend focused full stacks let me cook (thank u, have fun in the api)

Life is too short not to get a lil-potted-plant-with-a-kitty-on-it tattoo In Victorian flower language azaleas are meant to say “take care of yourself” which is such a tender lil reminder 🥺 Shout out to my oldest homie Jordan @ Denver Classic Tattoos

You know what you call a very long jacket that you’ve just ripped a very large fart in? A stench coat

Noooo stop, that’s my 900 page emotional support romantasy novel

Ah yes, just some cozy weekend reading. Bout to learn how I can make a union between me, at least three tacos, and a nap

Words cannot express how hype I am to tear into this tonight! Huge congrats to @derrickacosta.bsky.social and team for all the love and time they put into this horror comic. Let’s goooooo!!! 👻💀🕷️🕸️⚰️ #fobia #horrorcomic #graphicnovel

I love writing my technical documentation with love, make it a fun lil learning experience 🥰 Sucks to suck if you don’t wanna have a little delight and giggle as you learn how to update user authentication flows bro, but we’re out here trying to make learning fun ✨🎓

Watching your deployment pipeline take longer than normal like

Rest in piss you piece of shit 🥰

Today I built a Claude Code agent named 𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫-𝐜𝐲𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐞, and lemme tell you what. She’s still dumb as fuck, and that tells you everything you need to know about me 💅🏼✨

I swear the hardest thing about knittin a sweater is the first row and every decision before. What pattern? What yarn? What size needles to achieve gauge? What cast on method? And then keeping track of and casting on 100 stitches is a nightmare Everything from here on is BUTTER, baby, BUTTER 🧈

The Stream Deck is the gift that keeps on giving ~*sound on pls*~

Solved one of the most brutal k8s build errors today, and I truly believe through pain all things are possible, amen 🙏🏼

Like “hey let’s walk through this legacy test suite together, I want to understand the mock data being used and why” when looking through JSON feels like reading a language I am not fluent in because of the Sad ™ It felt like little water wings keeping me afloat, and I floated enough to get by.

Sometimes depression feels like a dumb annoying headache that just happens for no real reason. It wasn’t bad enough to call out of work today, just annoying and loud. So I pair programmed with an AI engineering tool, and I’m no certified AI Fangirl ™ but good god what a fantastic use case.

I have since learned this cup was recalled for being made with toxic cadmium paint, the irony of reading The Radium Girls as I drank from this cup is palpable. I have been threshed again by the combine.

“It cannot be a fruitless endeavor, in the face of the quotidian threshing of the combine of modern life, to peek your head out of the waste to acknowledge the good that remains” I say to myself as I contentedly sip my lil coffee from my prized vintage Shrek cup in the sunshine of a Saturday morning

Listen, I’m just out here tryna keep a lil magic in my heart, and a silly lil joke locked & loaded always. I am simply not equipped to read through Kubernetes documentation while maintaining a BPM under 120. Where is the whimsy? Where is the hope? 😭

The game Two Point Museum is lit and this is a perfectly acceptable name for a museum

Me and my beautiful logs when my code finally works after a whole week of pain. And sadness. And despair.

This album got me through the worst period of my entire life, and I am forever grateful for Sabbath’s presence in my life. Rest in power Ozzman, the kingdom of hell is in for a fucking rager this evening.

Mfw I gotta make a new feature consuming of the most poorly documented “enterprise” GraphQL API

After that WSJ article came out I’m dying over everyone looking up the word “bawdy” today lmaooo

Listen, I can’t tell you how much better my mental health has been since I began compulsively listening to Weezer’s 2001 smash hit “Island in the Sun” at least once a day.

As announced yesterday, we’re giving away a Nintendo Switch 2 in celebration of Mega64 Day! Contest opens at 12pm PST at the 🔗 below and closes at 5:30pm PST where we’ll be announcing the winner live during our Mega64 Day stream! bit.ly/mega64switch2

The webdev’s holy trinity of literature genres - Technical documentation - Non-fiction - Smut

I didn’t know what heart burn felt like, and lowkey thought the tightness in my chest all day was the start of a panic attack (something I am very used to lmao) But it turns out I just had a bunch of pretzels last night, and no amount of breathing exercises was gonna help my ass Just Tums 😭

Absolutely incredible 🤌🏼

I swear I will never love anyone the way I love Pieter when he gave me the only GBA cart I was actively searching for @montoulieu.dev is such a dreamboat ilysm 🥰

Salvia update: These bitches is huge

Cotton candy, but make it sparkle ok 💅🏼 ✨

E-readers are so cool because you can sprinkle one of the greatest science finction stories ever told with a near-crippling dose of nautical nonsense through a quick font change. Frank would be so angry, and I think I’m okay with that 🧽 🫧

I stg my heart does a lil happy flip when I see that my grocery shopper isn’t an obviously straight man. I’m sorry straight boys, but consistently have the girls, gays and theys brought me the freshest produce, don’t suggest the most absurd out-of-pocket replacements, and pack things thoughtfully💅🏼

I went to pick up an e-reader at Best Buy on lunch, and the lady working checkout went “All the pretty girlies have e-readers” And like, girl, I’m gonna be living on that compliment the rest of the week at least 🥺🫶🏼

Today I found out my Devendra Banhart shirt is actually, definitely a Love Guru shirt. So you can only imagine how off-kilter and bewildered I feel on this Monday morning.

Rainy weather is Radiohead weather. Them’s the rules. I don’t make em, if you have a problem with it, take it up with the Big Man upstairs. The Big Man is Colin Greenwood btw

Fun fact: BioWare and LucasArts actually won an EGOT in 2003 for this legendary release

A Streetcar Named The Munchies

How it feels to see someone console log like console.log(“label: ”, variableName) when you log like console.log({variableName})

Update: he put her in an empty pozole container, and brought her along to work to show his friends because he is still a Florida man

I love living with Florida men because a very pregnant black widow will be making her nest in your office windowsill, and they’ll just pick her up with some chopsticks like a god damn spider-whisperer, and leave you to work in your peaceful, spiderless, office Shout out to my goated brother in law 🙏🏼

What I wasn’t built for: finding architectural synergy or delivering value against business outcomes What I was built for:

My first Nuggets tame since I was like 6. Coworker was selling practically courtside seats. What a treat in these seats with my favorite Pete @montoulieu.dev
