- today i am thanking Instagram, for blasting this article into my orbit gizmodo.com/elon-musks-d... i feel like a Victorian child being introduced to sliced bread

- brother. what the FUCK ‼️‼️ it is APRIL❗️❗️
- dr pepper blackberry is good stuff, think i might like the bottled stock over a Sonic mock actually i miss dr pepper coconut
- Reposted by okay, natlhappy ten year anniversary to this post
- well. tomorrow sure is going to be an experience (i was a baby in 2008, and did not care about/understand the economy in 2020)
- took a whole bunch of photos today. i had some ideas for photos, and... i think they're gonna turn out good! but that's half an assumption right now, since half of today's photos were taken on film :D
- Reposted by okay, natlWe’re excited to announce NorthSky Social Cooperative where we are building a new ATproto platform for the benefit of marginalized communities that prioritizes the 2SLGBTQIA+ community. After increasing hostility toward these communities we are taking action to provide a platform built by and for us

- finally got courage to ask my doctor about my mental health besides ADHD she started me on Zoloft today : ]
- random shoutout to the PDF24 tools site. no real reason, i just think it's neat 🙂 tools.pdf24.org/en/
- subprime brokers in 2007-08 would've loved screwing with this graph (i think)
- i don't know why, but old computer networking systems & standards... fascinate the hell out of me. partly for their history and overall contribution to The Internet as it functions today, but mainly just. i want to know how they work! i want to *learn* them, especially if they can still be used
- damn, if i could pull it off... i might've thought of a gift for my dad — but not just any gift, it'd be *the gift* to outdo all gifts past, present, and future but whether it happens? only time will tell, i suppose
- Reposted by okay, natlObsidian is now free for work. Starting today, the Obsidian Commercial license is optional. Anyone can use Obsidian for work, for free. Explore the organizations that support Obsidian on our site. obsidian.md/blog/free-fo...
- had a strange boost of productivity and efficiency over the weekend — managed to work through like 80% of my email inbox, and then cut down my saved tabs *massively*... i went from around 230 saved tabs to now 80. i also started setting up a new read-later app (Readwise Reader) : ]
- i have no earthly idea why tonight, of all nights, sparked me to slap some edits into a profile pic... but alas — at long, long last. howdy, bluesky! it feels good being more than an ominous, faceless entity 🙂
- what a uniquely weird week it's been
- huh! today's been a really nice day actually, despite starting rough. no idea why, but hopefully i can keep this vibe going all week 🙂 the sunset tonight was really pretty, here's a couple pics 💫
- well... i bought some crypto? an acquaintance of mine said this XRP coin would be good to buy into — idk, i've wanted to buy some of another coin for a bit because my vpn gives a discount when buying with it lol (the amount i bought is like $20, btw. nothing significant)

- yeah lol i'll be honest, watching hasan, talking to offliners, and cleaning my house were the only things that kept me grounded today 😀 these next four (😐) years are gonna be. rough is an understatement!
- if i’m being honest, i’m gonna miss tiktok. i was always a lurker in the shadows — i think i wrote maybe 10 comments across the history of my account, and never posted publically — but it was still a fun platform to experience
- today's been a fantastic day, despite running on zero sleep last night. absolutely nailed the piano today, followed that up with a chicken fry that was an unexpected flavor bomb... and i'm actually gonna go to sleep before midnight : ] (we're not gonna talk about regretting going clean shaven lol)
- Reposted by okay, natlafter days of grifters and con men at CES we stumbled upon the booth for VLC. they were all dressed as wizards and told us, "we have nothing to sell, we just decided to show up". i told them I'd been using their software to pirate media for 15 years and they said "keep doing that"
- new year, new me? maybe, but today i’m preferring the new year to be the end of an era (i’ve had youtube on my app dock since i got my very first device, a tablet, roughly 12 years ago. started using obsidian in october, and it’s quickly become one of my most used apps on both mobile & desktop)

- happy 10th birthday, ol’ buddy ✨ (today is the anniversary of getting my first desktop, this guy)
- experienced one of my most depressive states yet in the days leading up to christmas. i really wasn’t looking forward to christmas, but surprisingly i did enjoy it quite a bit. today has also been a good day, so i’m taking it to mean an early “fresh start” for me happy holidays, folks
- oh yippee, got my first porn bot follow. they also got an instant block 🤷🏼 true apologies to my technological brethren, it’s a waste of time to try hassling me 🙂 🖤🩶🤍💜
- it's 2024. why the hell are there still shirt blank manufacturers making tagged shirts (yes i'm talking about you, comfort colors)
- conflicted. i really want to keep using bluesky, but at the same time, i fucking loathe the mod team for their decisions right now (aaron should resign) i love atproto, the concept just makes sense to me over activitypub. if another seperate popular relay existed, i'd switch over in a heartbeat

- two notable things for today: - i'm gonna change my handle to @kdocc.net — recently purchased the domain, and thought i liked 'kdocc.com' best but 🤷 'kdocc.net' is more visually pleasing, and rolls off the tongue easier (or it does to me, anyway)
- things i discovered today: - my new daily shoes (work boots) & playing the piano do *not* mingle well (thick soles means my subconscious can’t ’feel’ the pedals) - the key to making my white cardigan work is a dark/contrasting central layer - i can walk faster (maybe?) more easily with my boots
- i spend the past 15 min writing a post. i try to grab the image i want to post with it. oh look, the internet won’t load! …but my parents are streaming something with no interruptions? yay, now i get to spend the night seeing if the problem lies with pi-hole, or if it’s cox’s fault 😐
- in hindsight, reorganizing my phone's homescreens by creating blank new ones probably would've been a better idea than reshuffling everything on my current screens but then i probably would've felt paralyzed bc "so many possibilities, what do i add" oh, the joy of ADHD (/s)
- whoops! i got stuck floating through the magical new world of my homelab for the past … week
- i've had a strange desire to turn an old computer of mine into a homelab for various things for a few months now. that desire took a step towards becoming reality a few weeks ago, when a friend randomly gave me their old computer. 1/
