Steven Phillips (Lord?)

How did I notice that @quinnypig.com was no longer X'ing?

I went looking for his salty remarks on the deprecating of chime. 🤣

Hi Bluesky...

I'm back.

I haven't been here since before October 7th.

I guess I'm a fundamentally different person now.

Nice to see you all again, especially some of you I miss from the good ole twitter days.

Well... this week was a day... or whatever that phrase is!

There's a special spot in hell reserved for folk that bring drums to football matches. #justsaying

Did I receive an email inviting me to a free lunch? YES.

Did I send that email to myself from someone's unlocked and unattended laptop? ALSO YES.

You know what they say; LOCK YOUR COMPUTER!

(and yes, there's no such thing as a free lunch)

Did I make awkward, prolonged, leg-on-leg contact with the man next to me who was manspreading into my space on the tube until he stopped?

You bet I did.

If I amuse no one else, I amuse myself 😂

You're not.

Me: why am I so tired?!

Also me : I wonder if the melatonin will do anything tonight.

So, um, I just finished Ted Lasso...

I watched half of the penultimate episode and then the final one.

I've been crying for pretty much 90 minutes, which I guess is the most fitting testament to the great game and the great show.

❤️😭⚽

Just walked past a man wearing a t-shirt that read "Motherfucker" in the city this morning.

I'm shocked... But also it was in a fun font.

11/10 for not using comic sans.

I've been here a while but not knowing I'd had an interaction meant I was forgetting this place existed...

Yeah the moderation here has some work to do! 👀

Sooo @amypearlman.bsky.social following me is how I found out that the bluesky app has some form of notifications!

Finally it may be about to get better than the birdapp!

There's something extra special about a sleeper service, the strange people you encounter, and just the general camaraderie of it all!

I freaking love it.

Well, when on the sleeper to Edinburgh, it would be rude not to have a little nightcap!

Mum : "Do you have internet on the TV so we can search for a fridge on Costco?"

Me: We are absolutely not doing that.

Wet bichon frise, Bella rests head on Steven's knee

Rest yo head on my knee, wet bella dog!

Moderately impressed and my own past engineering including this little screw to stop the power outlets dropping off!

Scheduled Maintenance and Upgrade Works on Lack-Rack-01 are now complete.

Upgrades include 2 additional Shelves, 2 additional power outlets (+1 more by finding the spare Mac power supply I'd lost) and 8 more switch ports!

Didn't want to waste ~2 years of sticker collecting...

So I peeled them off the laptop and framed them!

Is that double locked? Or just locked again with a smaller font?

In 1776, our forefathers, recognizing the oppression they were under, set us down a path that would lead to today. Celebrate with me by saying “shut up @steveeypips.bsky.social” your loudest voice.

Did something against my morals today...

Booked flights on ryanair! 😂

I've just killed (I think) a succulent... this hits harder than it should.

This sounds like a win? 😜

In today's episode of "For the Culture" I am in the office...

Everyone around me is speaking another language, to eachother, excluding me from any of the "organic hallway conversations" we talk of....

FOR THE CUTLURE! HUZZAR!

You'd think I'd have learned about doing things late at night...

And yet here I am nudging at AWS Amplify trying to work out why it's stopped talking to GitHub...

To realize that I actually need to PUSH THE CHANGES I made 😂🙈😂
