So, uh, job search update: About a month ago now, I pleaded on mastodon for help. I didn’t really have a goal in mind. I was just miserable at work, not getting paid enough to do too much work. I posted a big long, rambling post that ended with, effectively, “will someone please help me” A […]

I am forced to labor in an "open office" and everyone here is setting off my #misophonia today. I want to scream and throw things or curl into a ball under my desk and cry. I hate this so much. I wish my brain were not wired this way.

#ThisWeekAtMyTable The main #ttrpg group where I'm a player wrapped up a #Shadowrun 4e campaign after 38 sessions. We're going on hiatus as the GM is about to have his first child. I'm hoping we will pick up in the new year... but making plans to fill the time until then. I also have a […]

Have you ever run a murder mystery in your campaign? How did it turn out? #ttrpg #dnd #rpg #meme

A three-panel meme contrasting different character types solving murders:

- Top panel: 'Rogues solving murders:' shows cartoon detectives with magnifying glasses.

- Middle panel: 'Clerics solving murders:' shows a fantasy cleric casting a spell with a speech bubble: 'Welcome back! Who killed ya?'

- Bottom panel: My players solving murders: shows Obi-Wan Kenobi from Star Wars saying, 'Well, of course I know him. He's me.'

[medical] Hey #GenX folks, get your annual skin checkup. I just got back from mine and had a couple spots I was concerned about going in. It turns out, I was right to be concerned about them, so today I had two (exceedingly minor) unscheduled surgeries. Hopefully the biopsies come out all clear!

Who wants to fuck with Elon Musk?

Nine years ago, 150,000 people paid Cards Against Humanity $15 to protect a pristine parcel of land on the US-Mexico border from racist billionaire Donald Trump's stupid wall.

Two years ago, we discovered that an even richer, more racist billionaire—Elon Musk—snuck up on us from behind and completely fucked that land with gravel, tractors, and space garbage.

Two photos: One is pristine land. The other is "Land fucked by Musk"

After just having responded to the third #curl security report for the evening I noticed a post that cheered me up... Have a good Friday everyone! www.linkedin.com/posts/moekatib_mil…

(A LinkedIn screenshot)

Millions of people look up to Steve Jobs and Bill Gates.
My role model is Daniel Stenberg. You've never heard of him.
His code runs on 10 billion devices, including the one you're reading this post on.

He started building cURL in 1996. It handles data transfer on nearly every phone, console, smart TV, 47 car brands, and it was on the Mars helicopter.

He's also the person who's kept it going for nearly 30 years.
