@socketwench I was about to respond "zydrate comes in a little glass vial" and then remembered no, no, that's a totally different repo

Shower thoughts time: Some days I feel like I'm from an alien species. I don't want power. I don't want to compete or win. I don't want attention, recognition, or praise. Any apparent understanding or enactment I have of these things is a clumsy simulation I've been forced into by others.

I want to learn, play, tinker, share, build, and repair in a mutually beneficial world. Maybe make a few connections with folks - but not too many. I want to hang out with animals. And I want everybody to be okay.

There's a scene in Darwin's Children by Greg Bear that I think about a lot, where a character says "It hurts to make others fail". She sounds like my people. Except, in the story, she's the result of a strange genetic mutation. So 🤷‍♂️

@capnmariam LEMONS?!? 🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋 @hotdogsladies

A thing the perturbs: Web sites that serve up an article, then remove most of the content a split-second later with client-side JS to display a paywall. It just makes my browser have to do this...

Anything a remote web server sends to the browser on my computer is merely a suggestion. I think folks forget that, both users and developers. And I think some folks would really like that not to be the case.

@dbaron @mhoye This sounds like a win-win for taking a long plane ride where I'd like to sleep and also not catch COVID-19 so easily

Oh also, when I got up this morning, part of me had a strong desire to get into 8-Track tape players. I don't think I should indulge this.
