Just a reminder, the layoffs in govt were just done out of spite, not necessity

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

There's a fine line between "loveable goof" and "bumbling fool."

It's always risky to charge an old Li-ion battery after a long period of disuse but I wanted to see it boot up one last time. Amazingly you can still install the Android Wear app (now called Wear OS) from the Play Store and pair a Moto 360 to a modern phone running Android 15. Neat stuff.

I quit Twitter two years ago ~today and other than a brief and feeble attempt at running a Mastodon server I've been away from microblogging and most other social media since. It's been great to find a new home that feels like Twitter circa 2009 and reconnect with people. I've missed y'all.

If you're in line to make a joke about the Department of Government Efficiency having two co-chairs, STAY IN LINE.
