I make computers do things for money and also for fun.
Summer means cold brew coffee. ☕️
Cold brew coffee, and a reckless disregard for my sleep schedule, means late nights.
Late nights means lots of Hades 2 runs. 🎮

@brennanleemulligan.bsky.social on Last Meals was such a joy to watch. The fact that it's like an hour and a half tells me it was just two dudes shooting the shit and eating too much food for ages. Which, in an age of AI slop and disingenuous money making, was absolutely fucking delightful.

Long weekend here in Aotearoa New Zealand.
Other people:
Beach, sunshine, visiting friends, drinking, etc.

If the Americans getting called fascists don't like being called fascists, then maybe they can try not acting like fascists.
Just an idea.

@hankgreen.bsky.social launching an app about beans needing to focus on their knitting is the most animal-crossing-ADHD shit I have ever heard. It's also delightful.
I named my bean "That Boy"

My son loves playing Astro's Playroom, and I love going into my cupboard to pull out the various "artifacts" that he finds in-game. 😂

The look on his face when I pulled out my original Playstation was pretty great.

The best board game adaptation of a video game.

Pulled this out of my busted old bag before throwing it away...
I don't even care who, I just want to know how long. I have had this bag for more than a decade. 🤯

Hey, if @worldsbeyondnumber.bsky.social could just drop the next episode of The Wizard, The Witch, And The Wild One, that would be great.
Steel is a baddie in every sense of the word, and I think I can fix her. 🧙‍♀️🗡

You know the episode of Boyfriend Material is good when @andrewrosas.bsky.social turns into The Count.

The people gutting our institutions and collapsing the government are the same people Dems want to compromise with. Mfs love to bring a strongly worded letter to gunfight

Weak men cannot compromise. Weak men cannot build consensus. Weak men think that leadership means force. Weak men build nothing that lasts.

Bluesky is so much more pleasant after disabling retweets/reskeets on my feed.

What I love about Bluesky is that, while the US is lamenting the state of their government, I don't get forced down a rabbit hole of ever-refreshing doom posts from people I don't even follow.
