Nice. I know the highlights but it is all so stupid that reading about it every once in a while is needed.

Why is Monday. Why. I am tired after being lazy as fuck all weekend.

The Virginia Department of Health has issued a standing order so that people can get the COVID vaccine without a prescription.

You can print out the order here: www.vdh.virginia.gov/content/uplo...

It's so good. Love her.

And I think about all of you, too.

They tend to stick to the big national park here. Instead we have about a million deer. The babies get parked in our yard ❤️

I am jealous of your chipmunk population. I never see them here.

It was pushed very hard by the media to get us fighting amongst ourselves.

Not all boomers got their end of the deal either. Many struggled and still do. The frustration is with those who don't seem to understand this, vote for people who won't fix it, and blame younger folks...

My "retirement plan" is to pay off my house that I am lucky as fuck to have.

That post is right. A big part if the generational divide is between those older folks that actually received their end of the social contract versus those who didn't and those who never will.

The PowerMac G4 Quicksilver is becoming my favorite computer. I have so much fun playing games on it.

AI art does not exist. It is an oxymoron.

All hail Our Lady of Microcenter

They regularly push security updates. This one is just more urgent I guess.

All software has bugs. Some people just don't understand that.

Fuck Google. XML and XSLT are still very relevant. They don't get to pick the technologies we use.

Yeah. I don't want to block people that aren't assholes, but I also don't need my follower list to be full of people I'll never interact with. And it make it look like a lot more people are interested in my posts than reality lol.

The constant follows from NSFW accounts that I am really not interested in are getting annoying. If I think you're hot AND you seem cool I'll follow...but I just don't like the "join my OF!!!" Follows.

@bsky.app can we get something like a follow approval system? Is it already there?

"Oh but look, a crimes!"

It's called living around a lot of people. Shit happens everywhere. More people == more shit happening. Stop being a terrified child.

I have always lived in the sphere of DC. I Identify with it. I love it. Stop fucking with it.

I can't afford the city, can handle the pace, and love my space and quiet and wildlife. But if I didn't have DC? Miserable life. Been to so many cities in the US and abroad, I love DC the most.

Seeing people who aren't from there who hate it being allowed to torment it makes me so angry.

I really can't stress enough how safe I feel in DC at all hours of the night. Not once have I had anything worse happen than someone having an episode and yelling. And that was many years before the gentrification of the past decade or so.

I've seen more meth heads at my rural grocery store.

we used to build household shrines to Going On The Computer and it's no coincidence that as we abandoned these we started straying further from god's light

If it doesn't run on a 68060 then we don't need it

when the AI bubble finally collapses and everyone who spent a year smugly hyping it suddenly has to come crawling back with their tail between their legs, i just want to say i am not going to be the bigger person about it. i am going to be meaner than you can even believe
