I can’t wait for balcony solar in Virginia!

Sometimes it just blows my mind that the 2020s are the era of anti-vax, AI, gambling, ICE agents, massive trucks, aggro right wingers… like it’s all SO stupid and bad

“Use AI to get ahead!”

Just saw a hand-wringing, moralizing article about squishing spotted lanterflies… I can’t roll my eyes hard enough

Lee Carter on the feed jumpscare 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨🚫🚫🚫

Being on the other side of this (I have a business with a website) I have been SO pleasantly surprised by how many people have gotten in touch via my website and how many have said they reached out because they liked my website

I love the JD Vance curse, it is so fitting for him

We watched through the entirety of Eastbound and Down a little while ago and it is inc the whole way through. Need to do a Danny McBride deep dive

Playing Steam games on my Linux laptop :))))

WAIT WHOA!!! FindAGrave is an awesome site where you can request photos of any grave and some volunteer will go out and snap one for you, it’s hella sweet and non-transactional. The page sponsorship is just a little way you can support the site, but you don’t need to and the ads aren’t intrusive.

What’s up with streaming platforms making you verify that you’re using your home internet????

The photo that Washington Post chose for this piece is hilariously depressing

Watching Climate Town’s new video on right to repair and saying “mmmHMMM” at my computer screen a bunch

I truly don’t know what people mean when they say “students should learn AI literacy”… is it anything beyond knowing that AI output is bullshit and becoming proficient in other ways of finding information so you can correct the bot’s errors?

Click N Ship is an amazing service

I think America is ready for a Shaker revival

BTW I LOVEEEE being a permanent absentee voter in Virginia, it is so easy to sign up and basically ensures I never miss an election www.elections.virginia.gov/casting-a-ba...

I’ve been a bit ambivalent about the VA redistricting but a few nights ago I heard an anti-redistricting ad that was like “they’re going to raise your taxes and give the money to illegals” and now my whole household has voted yes and mailed our ballots in early

We’ve started making middle eastern food for Easter dinner 🤤Last night Daniel made a Palestinian recipe for falafel that had a grated potato in it! Easily the best falafel recipe we’ve tried, the potato is a good binder and contributes to a crispy outside

Ann Lee: Brother William I had a vision… beautiful architecture, functional and elegant… utilitarian yet stylish, chic…

Just watched The Testament of Ann Lee and honestly good on the Shakers for getting such a sexy cool beautiful movie made about them

Everyone in the replies acting like Altoona style pizza is gross, for shame.. you know this thing tastes good as fuck

This is a bit besides the point but I get a TON of porn on my bluesky feed, none of which I specifically searched for, followed, liked, anythin, and I think it’s so fun and part of why I like this site 🤣🤣

Potatoes in the ground!

Getting really sick of getting ads while in Google Workspace, is it time to migrate out? (I know the answer is yes I’ve just found it handy having my docs and sheets in my tabs list 😭😭😭)

Hilarious cope over on LinkedIn. Obviously this is to sell newsletter subscription

I love doing genealogy research professionally, I think of it like being a PI except you mostly interface with librarians rather than cops

I really believe every home cook should become proficient in making Indian food. Few better ways to develop an understanding of and deep appreciation for the finishing oil.

T Mobile decided to prank us today by dropping WiFi connection right before a scheduled Zoom call 🥲

Potato chips in a tuna fish sandwich is such an underrated banger

This part of spring is so psychedelic! I’m never fully prepared for how energized it makes me

Pivot away from video

Freelance/client work is wild, this time last week I was a bit worried bc I hadn’t gotten any new inquiries in two weeks, then at the end of the week I got two that both turned into contracts and now I’m set through April.

Today’s productivity plans totally waylaid by my cat deciding that she actually wants to sleep in laps now

Oh great someone posted about masks in a goofy way, now we get a bunch of smug response posts about how no one masks, actually 🥲

Highly doubtful

THIS DICK is a convenient package of context that can be used to make myself known to new systems HEYOOOO

I wish Marimekko by Dan River sheets weren’t part polyester bc I saw some on eBay and I want them so bad!!

The only downside to migrating to Blacksky/myatproto is that only my blocklist carried over not my mute list… had a couple jump scares today lmao

Not me watching a video on how to use Zotero and seeing this 💀💀💀 pissing me off

move slow and repair things

Came across my first AI knitting IG page today 😪😪😪😪 AI ruins everything

I got Linux Mint up and running on my laptop, it’s a new dawn, this is the first day of the rest of my life!!

“What you made with Sora mattered” FALSE

Had this experience just yesterday! Driving through Charles Town WV 🥲

Me at 25: I want comedy shows to make me think and feel Me at 37: funny haha show make me laugh

Hell of an intersection

So you mean to tell me that MAGA could be getting Afroman and they keep going back to Kid Rock??? Sad!

AYYYYY congrats to Afroman for winning this every single step of the way www.billboard.com/pro/afroman-...

omg migrating to a new PDS worked!!
