happy expensive gas summer to all the pickup trucks tailgating me.

writing software and touching computers mostly based on which companies have rejected my job applications. soon enough self-hosting will be my only option.

Welcome to first false spring, Rochester. #roc

it's going to rain for a week now what have you done

"I asked chatGPT" is the new "I had the weirdest dream last night". Instant eye glaze. Nothing that comes out of your mouth next will have any value to me.

this is lovely!

My whole feed is full of these things now. I am back to listening to music based on cover art I suppose. Which one prompted this for you?

Stretchy Giraffe (TM)? It's the hot new thing.

omg with the socks and the hair ties.

we are still Team Wegs Pink Lemonade Sludge. i hope it lasts a few more hot summers.

seems like many people roll "self-awareness" into this word as well? (myself included!)

wuuuuuut. tiny emo horse?

Pesty the pestilence? Plaguey Pete?

If my mom started reposting this sort of nonsense I would take away her credit cards and lock down her iPad.

Very Cozycore.

it's the creepy Kellogg's Raisin Bran sun guy with two scoops of raisins.

you know who else had a huge emphasis on scoops?

👋🏻 bug report: you have broken bluesky links on all of your bluesky-using author pages (example: nysfocus.com/author/colin...) except for @sammellins.bsky.social's. cheers!

if you're running your own jetstream server, set JETSTREAM_WS_URL to one of the wss:// urls listed on firehose.network to try this out.
