Or is that the โ€œmemeโ€, that a performative male deep down just wants sex, which is basically the plot device of every woman in a Murakami novel.

So Iโ€™ve been getting spammed by โ€œperformative maleโ€ stuff on YT.

Is Haruki Murakami really being read by men wanting to stand out to women? I have *most* of his books, but he writes women so poorly I canโ€™t imagine any woman whoโ€™s read anything to be impressed.

I canโ€™t believe this is a year difference.

I donโ€™t need the beard anymore because I only have 1.5 chins to deal with.

Been a lot of work, but well worth it, I feel great.

8 more kg to go.

Itโ€™s pretty much โ€œHave absolutely no life experiences, just save and hope that when youโ€™re 50 and your house is paid youโ€™re happy or you can go have those experiencesโ€

Itโ€™s so shit.

The web we want isn't free, but it's worth paying for.

When you choose Kagi, you're not just buying a service. You're investing in a better, more ethical web. One where your privacy matters, your time is valued, and your search results serve you - not advertisers.

Threads are the best way to use the app, but this is comically bad. Let us collapse.

I use the inline autocompletes, but havenโ€™t really moved to โ€œagentic codingโ€ yet.

I ask it questions, convert bash commands to other bash commands (like recently curl -> ab), itโ€™s cool.

I think I own the domain skeetit.app ๐Ÿ˜†

I really want better thread experiences, and to treat feeds as subreddits almost.

This is 1440p resolution, and the actual result is all the way down the bottom.

God forbid I was on mobile.

You've just deployed a multi million dollar media campaign for your brand. Your driving people to search for your brand, and the product that they want to buy.

They search for your brand, and they get...

3 competitors who've purchased ad spots for that search term.

Google's so shit.

Why?
Because I want stories.
I've spent nearly 10 years as a software developer.
After near 8 years, I can safely say my career means nothing to me. Buying a house means nothing to me. Getting the next $1000 means nothing to me.

But I want to prove to myself that I can grow as a person at home.

I changed gyms at the start of the year and no longer have a good place to take photos.

I'm nearing 90kg though. The last couple weeks has been stagnant, but I'm very calorie conscious these days.

I've told myself if I can reach 80kg, then I'll quit my job, and go to Europe :)

Just deleted X from my phone and cancelled my twitter premium.
