Sorry if I seem kind of... emotionally distant for a bit.

I didn't really think this would hit as hard as it did.

He passed at 7:33 PM (EST) last night.

Getting mentioned by @Gargron is the ActivityPub version of the slashdot effect

I'm playing the catch-up game because Eugen tooted at me and it crashed my server, lol

Great, my 2000th toot is me ranting on Mastodon stuff lol

I jumped on Mastodon because the thought of being able to run everything myself and still interact with everyone I knew was a huge plus.

...but, I realize this is a rare train of thought. Most people don't want to invest their time in running everything themselves.

And then there's some who just want to communicate with others and don't care about federation or instances or all of that, they just want something that works.

None of these viewpoints are wrong.

If you ask me, there should always be a default, "safe" answer to "what instance should I use?"

Having choice and freedom is a good thing, but for some that very choice is overwhelming.

it's 2PM and I'm still waking up, oof

Hey @dzuk, can you not take an obvious joke? @ https://github.com/dzuk-mutant/blockchain/commit/5b289120d4e0431f9825e41efc2e244fdf5a0446

Yes, brother, I'm fully aware of the fact that my grandfather has at most a couple more days to live.

That still doesn't mean that I can take an abrupt 3,000 mile plane trip to the opposite side of the country.

Please stop being so aggressive at me for fuck's sake. You're just adding stress to an already painful situation, and it's physically making me hurt right now from too much stress at once.

I need a hug.

such a cute thread

and then I see what spawned it and just

fuck everything, why do I have to be associated with this right-wing nutjob

hey look that right-wing shitheel I share my real name with is posting awful stuff on birdsite again

god fucking damn it

So Zachtronics' latest game lets you hack everything... including yourself.

I feel I associate with this game pretty strongly already...

(http://www.zachtronics.com/exapunks/)

nothing like thinking "I should talk to this person I haven't talked to in a long time" and remembering one time you treated their tulpa poorly, immediately making you feel like shit that should disappear

I'm pretty sure they've long gotten over what happened but I can't stop dragging myself down over it

my gender right now is *flips table and spills all the gender everywhere*

gender is a fuck and everything feels weird and wrong right now

This offer is also available if you want me to make custom pride heart emoji for Mastodon too, I suppose

Just throw me a list of color codes, from top to bottom and I'll get to it when I get home

Me right now, in my own discord server: https://is.a.qute.dog/media/yVDn8I6KOgkP3xEl7Ss
