Only 9 years? It feels like such a timeless classic already though!

I'll do it for four figures. But I'm not shaving.

Everything you subscribe to should have to send you a notice once every six months or a year reminding you that you subscribe to this thing, and are you ok to carry on subscribing. If not, you should be able to click a button and unsubscribe immediately.

Current state of things. The new mattress is indeed ultra firm. I'm sleeping well but my legs, especially my thighs, ache. So I've spent more money on a mattress topper. Obviously I also got some sheets, pillows and pillow cases too.

Saw them at the tail end of last year and they were brilliant. Did they do sapphire bullets .. backwards?

I was going to say it was ace but realised I had my colours wrong.

For mastodon I use phanpy on desktop which does a pretty good job of collapsing threads. Might see if there's a mobile client that can do similar for this service. I had to unfollow Cory Doctorow it was so bad.

Today's peeve that has bubbles to the surface: long threads on services such as this. Write a blog post and link to it already. I don't want my feed to suddenly become a one man show of numbered posts.

Driving home the other day the sky was beautiful, possibly transforming. The sun's last rays turning the horizon pink, fading to white and then a pale blue sky above it.

Not doing well on my first attempt at an exercise challenge (Garmin). 15h of walking in Feb. I've done 45m. I've probably done more but I didn't have the auto detection enabled for walking at first :(

A long but worthy read. Never underestimate a good PTA.

I thought of something to post earlier. But I forgot.

You may not like it, but Leah's right. There's a reason the Prodigal Son is a parable in almost every culture. when someone experiencing cognitive dissonance comes to you, you have two choices: embrace them, and win them over forever; or reject them, ensuring they never again question their beliefs.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

I'd be interested to learn what features word has that aren't available elsewhere. Hmm, please ignore any passive aggressive tone that sentence might carry. It's an honest question but I've just got up.

By this metric it's my birthday nearly every week. I am a weak man.

Getting home from work at 19:30. Order some food and now its time to log in to work and see if the build worked. Cross fingers!
