That’s my secret, I’m always deeply depressed and cynical.

It really does lol. Now if people would just pay me to make them websites… I am making a freebie for some friends and hoping I can get some traffic from that though.

It’s funny because after I got fired my production went through the roof because I was able to work on my own stuff without dealing with other people’s bullshit.

I have ASD so once I get into that hyperfocus flowstate, and get pulled out of it, it’s like everything around me just shatters lol. My partner and oldest kid have ADHD so when either or both are around I mostly don’t even bother with code. I was able to get a tiny bit of stuff done this morning but it was mostly stuff I have on mental autopilot like git stuff.

I’ve lost my shit with people over this lol. Just sucks when you are like 3 hours in on something and then someone just comes along and makes small talk.

I was fired from my last job because I was expected to write features AND do helpdesk support at the same time and just no… I was also fired because I suck at programming but still…

I just told some discord friends about it and now they are screeching about Tienanmen Square and such. Whoops.

I’m gonna be doing the impossible and try to set up a PSL branch deep in Christo-fascist Trump land.

It’s gonna be pure American Fascism. Our leaders wrote the fucking book.

I have a 3d printed fidget slider and a custom-made worry stone I almost never leave the house without.

Candy

I drink trash wine and love carbs anyway so I’m going with Jesus.

I settled on Cinnamon after jumping around a bit. I do still like Gnome though even if both are fairly bulky DEs.

Well, that was a lie.

Lock screen and sleep. My gaming/programming computer is also our media server so it is basically always on.

A dik-dik. It’s a species of deer that is slightly larger than a house cat or maybe a medium size dog. It was super adorable but a bit uncanny feeling lol.

I’ve known about it for longer but just started using KDE Connect over the last year or so.

It’s got some bugs, at least for me. Like sometimes my phone won’t connect to my computer or like the SMS feature takes forever to load, but having something akin to Pushbullet but free from enshitification has been really great.

Try not eating taco bell.

But on the real, anything with a chalupa shell(deep fried gordita/flatbread) just elevates stuff there. Neither their gordita or chalupa are traditional in any sense of the word but fried bread is so good imo.

If you can get their potatoes when they are absolutely fresh, they are fire but if they’ve been sitting for any amount of time, the just taste like breaded cardboard.

My friend told me about Bitcoin when it was about $8 per coin. I was young and making some extra cash from working and not really buying too much stuff so I could have easily tossed down $100 on some crypto and let it ride.

The very next time I even bothered paying attention to crypto was when Bitcoin shot up to 78k from like 60k.

So yeah, I feel this lol.

Idk how well this would actually sell but years ago in my early 20s, I came up with the idea for a beer coozie for 40oz bottles.

40s are great if you are poor and want just enough of a buzz but unless you chug them, they get warm halfway through. Which is also why 12oz cans/bottles are probably also more appealing.

Just a big ass coozie to keep your Bud Ice cold in a Sunday afternoon of porch drinking.
