If Eugen is so ashamed of the monster he's created that he feels the majority of it should be hidden away like a dirty little secret in the official iOS app he could use that shame towards building better tools towards a healthier and safer social space like people have been literally begging for and suggesting since 2017

what gargamel did, mastodon meta

thanks very much to @cdmnky for writing out what happened and the interaction with Eugen to put things in context

ironically the main reason I was able to see this is I love browsing local timelines of several furry-related instances

Hey remember that What Is Mastodon video with the cute elephants in it, hanging out on different planets? And it was like "oh you can pick an instance based on your interests"? Ignore that. It's just Twitter now

On Eldritch Beasts and the "Witnessing this descends you into madness" trope

I hadn't thought of this in words before, but it's definitely a resonant feeling and I'm seriously glad someone did.

Also racists like Lovecraft and xenophobes of all stripes can get fuuuuuuucked

Okay so I FINALLY installed pipewire since I needed to do some rejiggering that wasn't cooperating in normal alsa

Being pretty much a drop-in replacement for pulse that doesn't suck as much is promising, at least, but I'm having trouble grokking the documentation so I'm very thankful it doesn't suck as much

I just need to figure out at some point how to automatically set up a loopback from the line-in... or figure out a way I can get VM startup/teardown to handle it

covid anxiety

Every time I go out, I always worry "is this the time I'm gonna get it"

You'd think I could rest easier after vaccination, but it's less effective against the delta variant, which is in my area

My luck's gonna run out someday

The great thing about curry is that you can make it out of anything like a thousand different ways
