I didn’t get together with my friends to celebrate my birthday back in July. In the meantime, another’s friend’s birthday went by uncelebrated. So I baked an orange cake. Served with orange slices for people who choose to not eat the CONFECTION 😅 It feels good to go slow and make something to share with friends in RL. I MISSED THAT. We shall also play #TTRPG this arv! #cake #belated #weekend

A sticker to place anywhere.

Like hand dryers, toilet bowls, soap dispensers, alarm keypads, coffee machines, thermostats, pedestrian crossing buttons, BBQs, park benches, parking meters...

As well as staplers, pens, potatoes, bricks, brooms, lunch, potplants and speed humps.

Who I am is being built through a series of things I say no to, and friends tell me the things I said yes to. In this way, I am propped up by the community I've built around me. And even if my angsty teenage self would disagree, I wouldn't have survived without friends. I truly am the pieces of the friends I made along the way.

Holy shit Culver's is fuckin good what the hell

Why don't we have this in Seattle?!

If you're at VCF Midwest, come all the way to the back corner and check out my NTP Time demo on a bunch of old Macs! (Starring an Xserve G5 with an acrylic cover). Also check out Mr. Macintosh's rack full 'o Xserves across the pod!

can't even put a sign on ur bedroom door that says 'Heavy Petting Zoo' without people getting u all wrong these days

i am removed from my partner's parent's timeshare in magaluf, presumably because of woke 😩​😡​

Replacing the cartridge was indeed successful! Refreshing that some tech over 10 years old can be made new again just by replacing the relevant part.

No. But Jared's relationship with MBS was something that I counted on. Looks like that didn't work out so much for them.

Oops, I slept terribly last night and I think I need a nap before the stream ^^;;

It'll be guerilla when I feel alive again!
