 oh huh I really don't want to work anymore.
 
 I used to, but they wouldn't let me.
 
 Then they did let me, but I worked too hard and burnt out.
 
 Then I recovered for a while, and asked to work again, and they said no.
 Repeatedly.
 
 I don't think I want to work anymore. It's an abusive relationship. It feels
 demeaning. I'm better than employment.
 
 [rent comes due]
 
 oh no

 @user-95 when people in public see me I'm usually in a bicycle helmet or a
 witch hat. I used to wear a baseball cap but my favorite one got old so I try
 not to wear it too often. I also have this feather flower clip that I put in
 my hair, it's bright red and black. It was for a halloween costume 5-8 years
 back : )

 statistics properly and rigorously then it's even worse than divinin' entrails
 cause numbers are easier to believe.

 do you have a glass bottle with a weird shape that's hard to clean that has
 something stuck on the inside?
 
 try using salt, lemon/lime juice, and a bit of water. Then shake really hard.
 Works like a charm in most cases.
 
 plus if you happen to have more than one for whatever reason, you can re-use
 the cleaning solution!

 this is how I write trello cards or tickets.
 
 and yes, before you ask, modding this game is a constant struggle because the
 mod tools are... minimal... so you must work around various challenges by, for
 example, adding 1680 different "events" that must be checked every single turn
 for every single province on the map.

 there's a whole class of things I miss doing but can no longer do because I am
 not a child anymore.
 
 Balancing the weight of the things we miss and the things we believe in is the
 struggle of adulthood.
 
 I yearn for the day I can set aside my teenage-ish toys, but alas, I am but
 30. Scarcely a decade away from my teens. Which means I'll be stuck with them
 for at least a decade more.

 Yeah plus the second time around you're likely to make something better than
 whatever incomprehensible hack you did the first time.
 
 More time working on the project == more context which means you might even
 have solved the problem twice already and now just have to copy-paste
 something that's more robust than your previous one-liner.

 I see, interesting. I'll look into those tables - I've been using C lately and
 I've noticed myself rebuilding several Object Oriented features.

 homework is fine if they give you free time to do it. But most of the time
 they expect children to go to school for 8 hours a day and then go home to
 more work.
 
 No thank you.
 
 When I was homeschooled, I had about 1-3 hours of schoolwork every day. After
 that, I would read, play, explore, and spend time under the sun.
 
 I can imagine no other way to be. But that's just me.

 phew, just got back from a long nap and I had such a lovely dream! Gonna write
 down everything I can remember in my dream journal, will letcha know when I
 have something to share.
 
 Also... sorry about the sun. I have no idea if it was worth it because I woke
 up quite a bit later. Ah well anyway gotta do some writing, I hope everyone
 has a pleasant day. Make sure you eat nutrients and stay hydrated and do your
 stretches and work on your posture and all that.
 
 vegetables have minerals, fruits have vitamins, rice-and-beans or meat have
 protein, and oils and fats have calories. try and eat a lot of different
 colors of veggies and a lot of different colors of fruits (a green fruit and a
 green vegetable are not necessarily the same nutritionally)
 
 well brb goodnight gonna drink some water

 slob-marley: You really have to wonder about people who would visit a Coca Cola
              museum. Like, is this sugar water such a touchstone in their
              lives?
 
 ugathanki: Seems like it'd be worth the trip if you're interested in the growth
            and development of one of the world's largest companies. Why would
            it
            not be considered relevant information to the world? The story of
 these companies is very important, because it predicts the favors of the 
 company. Meaning it provides actionable, tactical advice for business owners
 to
 use to better their own companies. Essentially a knowledge sharing program - 
 "hey look at our case study, we used these approaches and got that result" and 
 all the various project managers and organizers and executives are like
 "neato"
 and they learn how to be better at their jobs. Because at the end of the day,
 if
 we all believe that it's better to be a good person than bad, we can all agree 
 that it's better to be a "good" company than a "bad". Good and bad having 
 different meanings, of course, compared to the human version. Because you
 cannot
 expect two things of altogether unlike kinds to behave the same under the same
 circumstances. It follows that the intense bureaucracy stifles rather than 
 encourages good behavior. I mean think about it, we've had thought leaders for
 generations who had ideas that would make the world better. But for a large
 part
 many of them don't have their visions reflected in the world as accurately nor 
 as perfectly as they required. So the task was passed onto the next, and as
 they
 worked on together their future, was brighter than all that came before-yer,
 and
 anyway we've got a lot to do.

 I remember being a game design student before "indie games" were a real thing
 
 they were like... flash games, y'know. just like, junk content, like memes or
 whatever.
 
 I had a passion for them, and I bookmarked the most well developed of them all.
 
 I probably played hundreds of games, no clue how many. Maybe even thousands, I
 did it for what felt like years.
 
 since like... age 7 until 11 or 12
 
 there's nothing that can compare to it today. maybe itch.io but they're more
 involved typically. increases the barrier to enter, plus they cost dollars.
 
 we used to make this stuff in our spare time. where did all our spare time go?
 
 ah, right, that's what happens when you actually invest in computer education.
 you have kids running linux on their laptops. you get flash game designers.
 you get soldering junkies and electric engineers and networking and dev-ops
 security system facilitators and various other computer related things besides.
 
 ... what was I saying? oh yes when you invest in education, there's more to se

 the brave die unnecessarily

 main() is where you put stuff before you abstract it into a function. Usually
 it gets quite long, but it's mostly just a table-of-contents listing of all
 the other functions that are run in order to do this-or-that-or-the-other.

 If your code is too long to fit in 80 or 120 characters (preference) then you
 need to use more numbers (indexable with a small table-of-contents style
 comment description just above) or character symbols (referencably by meaning
 just as above) (by above she means earlier in the string of text you just read)

 trump literally just... told a bunch of rural folks just now getting internet
 that the rest of the news was lying to them. how rude. anyway, now they all
 listen to him, so, it's a cult of personality. they don't know what he
 believes. He doesn't tell anyone, which is why he's so good at acting in the
 interest of his-self.
 
 yeah, and you could learn a thing or two from this guy here. see, he fell for
 this ruse. then he was consumed with guilt, as he watched from afar as a kid.
 pretty intense shadows to live under.
 
 sure would be a shame if they came back for revenge.
 
 I don't know what they expected, honestly, collecting so many souls in one
 region or area. Kinda feels impossible to constrain. (like atlas, holding his
 shoulderblade on your hometown?)
 
 atlas holds up not the world, but each atom
 
 resting on the weight of his arms.

 little wasteful but I kinda liked the feeling of driving a car? It became

 That's a great idea, I'm probably going to do that! I've had this problem

 programmer socks away.
 
 ... I don't actually have any programmer socks. I should get some. Maybe
 they'll just take my Thinkpad instead, that'd definitely be worse. D:

 This looks pretty good! It has a lot of sugar, I'm looking for something more
 savory. For energy and nutrition. Thank you, this is a good easy "cake" style
 recipe, and it helps. 🥰

 there comes a point where you can tell yourself "alright, me, no more new
 projects. only working on old ones. just keep adding stuff, pruning stuff
 away. grow your bonsai computer. make it neat. or worse. up to you. see how
 you do."
 
 ... or am I the only one who can't stop conceptualationating?

 winter clothes are the same as summer clothes, just a size too big so they can
 fit over your summer clothes.
 
 also they usually have longer sleeves and pantlegs, but not always.
