I found this really cool video on YouTube this morning about the "YOU WOULDN'T STEAL A CAR" antipiracy campaign. This French journalist tried to track down the person/people who created the video. It was very informational and entertaining.οΏΌ https://youtu.be/Fi0yWWEdfxQ?si=W_zpRXRX1DW1AmDR

My wife just said "this smart technology is getting too wordy!" Then, I said "oh my God, that's how we get to C-3PO… He's so fucking wordy!"

Today on The Fun Zone, we will be playing songs about mad scientists. So, tune in tonight and every Sunday night at 7 PM central and see what's on the slab! We'll be paying tribute to Dr. Jeckyll, Dr. Frank N. Furter, Dr. Horrible, and many more.

MWAHAHAHA!

I just discovered this weird thing. It's a parody of MTV, but they play nothing but weird music videos. As a comedy music enthusiast and DJ of all things novelty, I approve!

For those of you who are interested in listening to the radio station that they have over at Burning Man every year, here is the link. They do lots of really fun and interesting things on this station every year. Enjoy! https://bmir.org

Hey everybody, I'm gonna have to cancel tonight's show. I've been dealing with quite a lot of muscle spasms in my back and it's very painful. I've been resting since Thursday night, after my doctor told me I need to take muscle relaxers and try to rest it.

I did bring CBD roll on which does seem to help quite a bit. We also do have lidocaine patches at home, but I didn't think to bring them with me on this trip. I'll be OK for a day or two come up but when we get back home I'm gonna start using them again.

To make matters worse, I'm on a work trip up north. Laying on uncomfortable hotel beds isn't helping. The good news is that sitting in the car seat seems to be the only place where I feel comfortable.

My back is really unhappy. It feels like somebody is taking a pair of vice grips and just squeezing my right rib along the back. Every time I move, a twinge of pain. This all started that one time I wore heels. Things got better after about two weeks… But it came back with a vengeance!

My partner and I are headed to Bemidji to help blind seniors with their technology. I love going up north! It's so pretty and there's tons of fun little shops and whatnot up there. Also, we get to stay in a hotel and there's a pool and hot tub! We have a new queen bed waiting when we get back home!

I'm sure that it might help AI... but I am a real, living, flesh and blood low vision human being. I can tell you that your AI text is important. Without it, I often have a hard time understanding pictures because I'm not a very visual person. Also, explaining the joke in the Alt text is helpful. οΏΌ

My partner and I bought a mattress earlier this week. We're heading over to the store to pick it up today. We still have to buy a new bedframe. I'm also looking for a really nice cooling blanket and pillow. I tend to run really hot, so I'm looking for something that will help.

I'm back from electrolysis. Thankfully my technician was able to zap quite a few hairs. I'm so tired, and my face hurts. I just counted, and I have had 26 electro sessions and 18 laser sessions. I can't wait to be done with all of this.

Dammit, my undiagnosed ADHD got me again! I have electrolysis today, and I'm not supposed to shave for a day or two before the appointment. I forgot yet again! I hope my technician doesn't have too hard of a time today.

My friend Angela wrote this iOS and Mac app that will read Reddit out loud to you. It has a sleep timer, continuous mode, and it works great with Voiceover! Just search the App Store and look for an app called Seddit... spelled S E D D I T.οΏΌ

I have been awful at promoting my show, The Fun Zone... especially when the podcasts go up. But I want to get better at this. So, here's a fresh episode. This week we play funny storytelling songs. http://funzone.show

Yeah the fact there’s a non-zero chance that the people stripping my rights away are getting off to me doesn’t exactly make my day.

I say for each load they shoot looking at me, they owe me one vote for trans rights.

Just realized that the Bing energy drink AND the Celsius I had today equals to 350% of the amount of B12 that you're supposed to have in one day! No wonder I'm all flibberty-jibberty like this!

Here's a public service announcement for you… Never ever drink an industrial sized can of Celsius and then vape Orange Krush THC. The sheer amount of anxiety I'm going through right now is making me spin out like I hit a banana on Mario Kart!

Trying out this new Openvibe app for cross posting on Mastodon, Bluesky, and Threads. It seems a little buggy, but I'm glad I can cross post at least these three social networks. Now, if only I could get Facebook in there! I deleted my Twitter account, so I'm not worried about that.

As a visually impaired person, cars have historically been kinda boring to me. But, recently I have been wanting to understand the tech in cars more. My wife is encouranging me to get my face up by the screens and it makes me so happy that they wanna see me learn about car tech!

I really want to get more engaging content and friends on here, but I'm havingοΏΌ a hard time finding my existing friends. I also would like to engage with more blind people, trans people, queer people, and progressive people. Are there pre-made lists of these type of people? How do I find them?οΏΌ

I love David Rose from Schitt's Creek. He has many layers like a very gay onion. οΏΌ

Great Scott! Today is the 40th anniversary of Back to the Future! This is probably my favorite movie trilogy of all time. The first time I ever saw it was on VHS at my grandma's house. I'm guessing it was probably 1988 or 1989 when I finally saw it.

I have decided that I'm not going to do a show tonight. As you may have heard, I gouged my head on the underside of a door frame of a car on Wednesday and had to get staples put in. οΏΌ i'm gonna spend the rest of this weekend just resting and recuperating. Thanks for understanding! οΏΌ

People of bluesky, especially those who know me… who should I follow! I need more witty things to read to keep me here and off of dysphoria enducing Zuckbook! οΏΌplease keep recs progressive and trans friendly. Thanky!
