I’m already too hard on myself in the present I couldn’t handle the judgement of future me on top of it

A text conversation:

incoming: I cannot believe you didn't set the alarm! We were late to work! Can you set it now?

incoming: Hey! Did eat an entire pizza instead of setting the alarm clock? Hello?

incoming: And where are you planning on putting our wallet? I can't find it
Outgoing: I don't think I can reply to you, it just goes right back to me.
Incoming: I don't think I can reply to you, it just goes right back to me.
Outgoing: Fuck
Incoming: Fuck

Why is there $3000 worth of unused, open box, motor controllers at the thrift store? What factory or fab or company went under before this stuff was installed? What’s the story?

“An account with this avatar was blocked” It is a portrait of a wretched version of you. Hideous to behold, covered in boils, terribly aged. The moment you see it you feel the weight of unnatural years and hedonism begin to twist your flesh

Look at this sick photo of me getting snap mare’d at a wrestling show this past weekend. People loved it. I love this photo (Credit David Haddad)

Remember girl dinner? Here’s hawk dinner. These red shouldered hawks have been dive bombing my head. Which is fair since it’s their turf, I just live here! I wanted a vid of them in flight but the moment I took my eyes off of them they vanished

Doing CCNA prep and every time I try using "show run interface" in packet tracer I make the text of this warning bigger. It will soon be the single largest section of my notes.

Text from my CCNA notes document. The first couple of lines in normal sized font are:
HEY! Pay attention to the first couple commands! He’s going to stop holding our hand on stuff like “enable”
Or, config t !
Example of a different issue:

The following lines are bold, and much larger.

show run interface f0/0 is not supported in the packet tracer lab!

Oh WOW yeah I'm skimming it but there's stuff in here that's just, *High pitched screeching noise* 20 YEARS AGO

Screenshot from the article:
"The Internet Threat is the story of an industry devastated by piracy, in desperate need of help from the state to protect its legitimate property interests. By contrast, the Farmers’ Tale is the story of a self-interested attempt not only to protect property but to cut off recognized rights of public access in a way that will actually make the whole society worse off. The legitimate role of the state in protecting private property has been stretched into an attempt to regulate technology so as to pick winners in the marketplace, enriching the farmers at the expense of consumers and other businesses. In the long run this will not be good for business as a whole. A patchwork of private toll roads is an economic nightmare"

Is there a study you trust on how often a Texas Republican voter defects? Or changes registration? And, I wonder just how inaccurate page 44 is? I think if I were Hispanic-Latino or had a single Hispanic relative in this political era I would deny knowing what Hispanic even meant.

Survey page with a line asking if a respondent has Hispanic-Latino grandparents at 98% no

And a question asking if respondent was born in the US at 93% yes

I always assumed that when That Game Company developed Flower they just put a demon into a single programmer. That dev programmed in the glyphs from The Matrix, and is forever imprisoned to protect humanity

Finally saw "The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T" and it's a tragedy on the level of Speed Racer that this wasn't a huge success. Before CGI if you wanted a dream of weirdos playing whimsical instruments you had to paint 'em.

I was unreasonably pleased with myself for these responses

Text conversation with first message received:

Well the magician I wanted to hire for summer reading charges 2,000 for a one hour show.

The rest are sent messages:
Is he an actual wizard
Is he the reincarnation of Ricky
FUCKING Jay?
Does he grant wishes?
Does he forge magic swords
I'm assuming gender. Are they able to change genders at will?
Do they summon dragons?
Can they raise a tower to god that is so tall god creates long term linguistic drift as punishment
If the moon is out are they dragged into the sky?
Can they bind demons?
Are they six and a half feet tall, live in Chicago, and solve crimes?

The previous conversation continued with first message sent:

Do they only remember the future?

Received message:
Exactly

Sent messages:
Are they a keeper of one of the words of creation and have sentient luggage as a friend
Are they dating death?
Okay that's about all the wizards I can come up with off the dome and I think it's cheating to hit Wikipedia. Also I assume you want your phone to stop beeping

There needs to be a new like button but it causes “What the fuck are you talking about?” To be played loudly in a poster’s language. Maybe only Trust and Safety can press it? It could be labeled Mu

Case 1 of The Gateless Gate reads as follows:

I need a distraction, maybe a bit social. Should I reinstall Tribes 2? Or Anarchy Online? The servers are still up I assume as it’s only been 2 decades Does the internet archive need a specific version of AO?

Isabelle has the BIGGEST CLAWS I had to teach her to sleep with her back to me because when she stretched she’d scratch the shit out of me So later you’d know if she liked you if she walked up, turned around, lay with her back to you. Affection was not looking at you, trusting you!
