"Go get me a glass of water. And a glass of shut-the-fuck-up. One of them is for me."

"Yeah, and the other is what I'll pour on your head."

Charles Xavier remains stoic in the face of the unstoppable while confirming the reality of the situation to students trained on illusions.

Calling it now: this is the 2018 equivalent of the "this is fine" dog.

How about this idea for a Mastodon client feature? 

Ah, thought of another bonus to this – it would make it even more intuitive that a CW counts against total toot length!

Wacom makes a quality product, but their real genius is in producing a proprietary pen that costs $50 to replace and contains rare cloaking technology which automatically deactivates the moment you order a replacement

How about this idea for a Mastodon client feature? 

What if:
1) Type a toot as normal in the box large enough to comfortably edit things.
2) Press CW button.
3) First "paragraph" of toot – everything before the first explicit ␍ and/or ␊ or whatever you kids are using these days – is automatically moved into the CW box!

And as a bonus:
4) Press CW button to turn it off...
5) ...and whatever's in the CW box is automatically inserted into the main text box for convenient editing.

Thoughts?

More music! 

I'm halfway through the album _Refactor_ by @fluffy@queer.party​ and I'm very much digging it – in large part because it's perfect for my short attention span. Every track has a very different flavour, and they're all good! Have a listen at music.sockpuppet.us/album/refa and then just buy the thing, 'kay?

Favourite track thus far: "Sliced by a Mandolin"

We're so quick to frame crabs as cruel for pulling each other down when they try to escape buckets, yet we too rarely focus on the person who put them in the bucket in the first place.

The same goes for the idea of mantises eating the heads of their mates (apparently an artifact of lab conditions) and of the "alpha wolf" idea (wolves were forced into the company of unfamiliar wolves), among other facets of "common knowledge."

How many assumptions about human behavior follow this pattern?

Brilliant music— 

Tonight's jam is a piano masterpiece by Shnabubula, though I'm only through the second of eight short (4~6 minute) pieces as I write this. It's got less of the complex stuff (read: tasty discordant messes) and more of the richly envisioned harmonious landscape angle. Admittedly, I can't help but imagine half of it in his more chippy sound palette, but it's also nice to get a brief break from the synths. (Makes it all the sweeter when I get back to them.)

Habari gani, fam? Happy New Year! Here is my post for the final day of Kwanzaa -- Imani, or Faith:

I don't say it nearly often enough, but—

You folks are awesome. ❤️​

You did it!

You made it through 2017!!

It was hard and it was rough and it hurt sometimes, but you made it! It's 2018 now!

I'm proud of you! ^.=.^

Let's see what we can make of this year together, shall we? ♥️

While there is societal pressure to go out and drink and be around many people this evening, please know it is perfectly okay to remain floating in the vast darkness of the cosmos as an elder god, ready to unleash your wrath on the universe. You do you, sweetie.

Habari gani, fam? Sorry about missing yesterday's post -- well, sort of. I wrote it and put it up but forgot to mention it here. Also, day 6!

Habari gani, brothers and sisters? Day four of Kwanzaa is all about Ujamaa, or Cooperative Economics. I like to think of it as Black Empowered Socialism. :)
