You there, the American reading this, unless you have a medical reason to avoid salt? you're probably not salting your food enough when you cook it.

Ok, seriously, every three days or so, I'm followed by a man who has no posts or replies who *exclusively* follows about 50 cis women. They never say anything, at least not to me, they just sit there. Lurking. Is there a name for this flavor of creeper?

If you adopted a feral cat to the inside and he keeps meowing maybe he just really wants to smoke real cigarettes. You don’t know what he was up to before

This is your regular reminder! If you use that fancy stationery or the nice yarn or whatever good supplies you're hoarding, you'll suddenly find you've used them up and then you can get more with much less guilt. Using isn't wasting. Using is enjoying and enjoyment is never wasted.

Honesty bids me admit I am sometimes a tad inky - usually just after refilling a piston, converter, or vacuum pen. But I kinda like it. I am a librarian and a writer and a scruff and we've all agreed I am Officially Eccentric so it's just a badge of office.

What decade are we in again? Because YouTube just served me an entire cigarette ad.
An ad for wholesale cigarettes. The logos for Marlboro and Newport are pixelated, but only a little bit.

This is a poll for fountain pen people: if you had a twsbi and it cracked, which model was it? I'm interested if it's an eco vs eco-t thing, also interested in non-eco cracking reports.

I know the world is on fire but we live in a time when any person can set up their own personal video streaming subscription service and I think that's really neat. I'm specifically thinking of rothorror.com and the HEI network, but there's others

Omg you guys, he was here! He talked to meeeee And then his account self-destructed immediately afterwards
A bsky dm screen.

Mr Musky: hello Debbie
Me: hey what's up
Mr Musky: I apologize for the unexpected message 
Mr Musky: you are welcome to my personal account. I'm glad we can text here, but where are you from?
Me: why do you ask?A bsky dm screen, continued:

Mr Musk: I wanted to take a moment to personally connect with my supporters around the world. While I may be busy, I always try to make time for personal interactions. 
Me: supporters? I've never heard of you. 
Me: what have you done? 
Mr Musky: I've spent much of my career working on electric vehicles, space technology, and AI. If you haven't heard of me, that's perfectly fine there's always more to discover. 
Mr Musky: I'm originally from Pretoria, but I moved to Texas because my Tesla and SpaceX companies are here in the States. 
Me: oh yeah I've heard of them
Me: SpaceX can't stop exploding their rockets and Tesla sells that ugly ass truck that can only drive on dry highways lol
Me: so you're that guy who can only have sex with girls through the mail 🤣🤣🤣

Today marks 100 job applications for this go-round. Woohoo! Stacking up those nos to get to the yes! Finding a job shouldn't be comparable to finding a publisher but here we are! So I'm still looking for my next adventure doing frontend, a11y, and "hey can you take a look at this real quick?"

It's infuriating because the simplest dumbest version of effective altruism isn't bad. Do underperforming underprivileged students need books, desks, or food and medicine? Important question to ask. The problems started when nerds tried to optimize the whole thing and became spreadsheet-brained.

Watching Shishi has been incredible. He debuted in the top division maybe half-cooked? He keeps learning, he keeps getting better, and it is so much fun to watch him grow. He has not reached his final form yet.

This is the image he conjured in my mind. If you ever wanted visual evidence of how far the Overton window has shifted just think about how refreshingly normal this guy looks compared to guys now. Back when this photoshoot dropped we all agreed this was the most unsettling thing we’d ever seen.

I was at work in a prison library. One of the inmates told me about a plane crash when he came in for his shift that morning. He sounded amused. The inmates mostly spent the day on block working the phones to find out about loved ones and talking about their feelings. The white guards were jumpy.

I am in the middle of topic 17 of 20 in a homework task with no deadline and I am STRUGGLING. It doesn't help that I'm familiar with the topic but I still need to pay attention to details that may be different from what I'm familiar with. I'm almost done! Why isn't that enough motivation!

I use it for work because I have to and I hate every minute and I do it anyway. What does that make me? An ai trash panda? An ai hypocrite? An ai collaborator? I'm not an ai moderate because I don't think ai in its current incarnation is a reasonable compromise in the right circumstances.

You know, the older I get the more appealing I find the idea of embodying the monstrousness of queerness. I say "idea" because actually doing that would take more effort than I really want to expend most of the time. I'm a lazy monster.

There's a Masonic Lodge on the moon. It was chartered by the Grand Lodge of Texas, who deputized Buzz Aldrin and gave him the proper paperwork to do whatever he needed to do to make that happen while he was there. It's known as Tranquility Lodge as it's located in the Sea of Tranquility.

I don't expect anyone to really understand how much I'm crashing out over this, but "woogle" is my made up coding test word. I put woogle in code to see where it comes out so I can debug, and it's a fake word so it's easy to find and clean up after. My professional safe word escaped containment.

I love Organic Studios Nitrogen ink, I love it in my broad Pilot Custom Heritage 92 fountain pen, and I love it on tomoe River paper in a repurposed Hobonichi hon planner. All this love is the only reason I can dig deep and get my homework done today.
Some handwritten homework and a clear fountain pen.
