We spent my 44th birthday on the Big Island of Hawaii and it was wonderful. I needed the break, and the reminder that life can be something other than just hopping from crisis to crisis.

That traditional household milestone of having outgrown your half rack and needing to migrate to a 42u 🥰 #homelab

A 42u rack I got off Craigslist (thanks Bay Area) next to the Startech 22u I bought 5 years ago when we moved in.

If I'd have known what installing Slackware on my 386SX-20 in 1995 would do to me… I would have installed it even sooner? 🤷🏻‍♀️

The "escalating dominoes" meme: a man in a blue polo shirt kneels on the floor, finger poised to tip over the smallest of a row of white dominoes. The dominoes grow progressively larger from right to left, each labeled to suggest that toppling one triggers the next. From smallest to largest: "Computer," "BBSes," "Dial-up," "IRC," "Linux," "Open Source Software," "Broadband," "Self Hosting," and finally the towering last domino, "Vaginoplasty." The joke is that a casual interest in computers sets off an inevitable chain reaction ending in gender-affirming surgery.

I was surprised my app (Match Champ) had a review and then I laughed because it was from me and I just forgot.

App Store "Ratings & Reviews" screen showing a 5.0 rating from 1 review, with five filled stars. The app icon is a gray Machamp standing with arms outstretched over a colorful pixelated background. Under "Most Helpful Reviews," a five-star review titled "Can't believe they let me write this" is posted by RainofTerra on May 24, with the text: "An app so good I literally wrote it."

Listen I can't help it if I bought a lifetime Plex Pass in like 2010 and am therefore happier and more attractive than people who didn't 🤷🏻‍♀️

Screenshot of a Reddit thread from r/PleX. The original post by u/culturebastard, titled "Please stop posting about buying your plex pass in 1865 for $12.16," is tagged "Meta (Subreddit)" and reads simply: "I'm tired, boss." It has 2,752 upvotes and 453 comments.

Below is a reply from user rainofterra, styled as a Civil War-era love letter:

"My Dearest Sophia,
It has been 2 long winters since I felt your loving embrace. Please know that I will return to you once we've vanquished these rebels from God's earth.

In the meantime, I hope the lifetime plex pass I bought us keeps you warm at night.

Yours Eternally,
Buford"

The joke plays on recurring posts about an old, cheap lifetime Plex Pass price by framing the purchase as something a soldier did in 1865.

Body: The poster introduces himself as an 18-year-old white male who recently met a trans girl at his college whom he finds beautiful and feels chemistry with, despite barely knowing her.

lol what a fucking joke. Anthropic banned my Claude Max account that was absolutely not violating the TOS and gave no description of the supposed violation. I'm just getting something to run local models, I already hate cloud services anyway.

My grandmother sold daffodils for a nickel when she was a little girl in NJ. She transplanted some of them to her own house later, and then when I was little they transplanted some to ours. When I got my own house in SF, my dad mailed me some bulbs. 85 years of our history in #daffodils 🌼

Maybe turning the government into a predatory loan shark was a bad idea? Too bad free tuition and loan forgiveness are impossible for the most prosperous country in the world (well, for the moment 🤷🏻‍♀️)
