just put a ladder/lumber/kayak rack on the acty!
i have basically 2 modes of writing when messaging folks. sometimes it’s like a switch flips in my head and i toggle from this mode (w no capitalization and limited punctuation) to…
This! Much more proper and professional. And my vocabulary switches to become more formal as well! Sometimes I don’t even realize I’ve switched during a conversation with someone. I imagine it could be quite jarring for them at times.

I have eaten
the honor
that was in
this place
and the esteemed deeds
you were probably
commemorating
here
forgive me
they were a message
a system of messages
and so important

I've finally found a way of seeing who's federated whom! I think every fediverse server should publish this information along with their policies for users before they register an account.
Thanks to @lutindiscret for sharing the link!
a few domestic scenes. last night our freezer failed, but fortunately we were able to find a spot for everything in other freezers. grateful for friends and family that are happy to help, for a life in a place that affords little luxuries and joys and moments of peace every day (if i take the time to let them happen)
i’ve been waiting for daylight savings to “fall back” so i can wake up on time more easily, but it’s still over a month away!
(realistically, i’d probably need to have the time rollback happen every month or two to actually keep me on track)

What happens when you tell an AI image generator to recreate the scene of Jesus flipping over tables.
I mean, it's 𝘵𝘦𝘤𝘩𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 correct. 😅
setting up this old typewriter for eb, and she just noticed it’s got no exclamation point!
“how will i seem excited? i’ll have to use a dollar sign”

Apple has Thunderbolt and Lightning ports
Logically, today's big announcement will be Very Very Frightening ports
love that iphones are switching to USB-C! disappointed the mini isn't back.
setapp is like if macheist happened every day
why is there so much turkic culture/terminology/imagery in c.s. lewis’s narnia books? especially when he never visited that part of the world, didn’t speak turkish, etc.
loved this article’s exploration of that question: https://engelsbergideas.com/essays/finding-turkey-in-narnia/ (and would read a longer work on it too!)
decided not to take melatonin tonight (i only started taking it again to try to get into the school day schedule switch) and now it’s 2am and i’m still awake. whyy
so many things in life would be smoother if i fell asleep as easily as i sleep in. it’s like i never grew out of teenagerhood
