Capitalism is bullshit, link to birdsite 

Went off on a tangent last night/this morning thanks to this tweet popping up on my twitter timeline: twitter.com/DanPriceSeattle/st. How we may be earning more money than our parents, but we're also paying WAY more than they did at our age, using 1970 and 2020 as baseline years for price comparisons (given most boomers would be in their 20's-30's in the 70's, and most millenials are in their 20's-30's today.) Federal minimum wage went up 453% in 50 years, sure, but that's pennies compared to how much housing and education went up. Median prices on housing (in America at least) went up nearly a whopping 1,400% in price, rent is up a whopping 1,500%, and education? A STAGGERING 3,000% in average cost of a 4 year degree. Boomers can fuck right off with their bullshit "work harder" advice. The blatant lie that was trickle-down economics can fuck right off.

Gender shitpost 

If I HAVE to be a binary gender then I demand that my gender have at LEAST 4 bits to it! None of this single bit 1 or 0 bullshit. My gender cannot be properly represented as anything LESS than 1000! Of course, to properly represent my gender requires a full 8 bits, and ALL of them are fuzzy (can be either 1 or 0 at any given point) :D

Seeing all these VRChat photos pop up in my feed makes me really want to install and run the program D: I'm living vicariously through friends' photos in the meantime though! <3

Christmas, family, pandemic mention 

I had my dad's Christmas present mailed to my parents' place since I didn't think it would arrive at mine in time for my sister to pick up and take to them (I can't go due to the pandemic and my mom being high risk.) They got it a lot sooner than I expected, so my mom had my dad wrap his own gift, still in the mailing packaging, without him knowing it was from me to him. I thought that was hilarious :D

Please do not release the carp in another social media platform as it’s is an invasive species and will harm the ecosystem of that social media platform.

Does prime rib only include ribs 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, & 23? How do they get all that in just one piece?

... Does the existence of prime ribs confirm the existence of composite ribs?

Thoughts of a slinky dragon that likes to wrap itself around you whenever it can, especially during the colder seasons. The dragon says it's because you're a good source of heat for its poor cold blooded body, but you know it's just an excuse to snuggle. The dragon isn't cold blooded, it just REALLY likes you but doesn't want to admit it. You don't mind though; even if the dragon won't say it, the way it constantly nuzzles into you every chance it gets says all that needs to be said

Oops, apparently when I went grocery shopping Sunday I forgot to put the distilled water in the car, and left it in the cart. Oh well, filtered water is almost as good for my CPAP machine. I can use tap water if I absolutely need to, but I'd have to give the reservoir a vinegar soak this weekend if I did.

Remember when I said that it's good when artists watermark their work? Well, when they don't, or when some art thief has managed to crop or edit it out, let me just say that TinEye (tineye.com) is amazing. Sometimes it takes a little further digging, but my success rate for finding original sources when starting there is probably around 90%.

If you weren't aware of the Geodude mascot costume, I wanted to make you aware. It's quite a good costume from the waist up, and then the legs are patterened like the photoshop "transparent layer", to say "We are politely ignoring this exists".

I really can't wait for the day when lights are designed and implemented in such a way that light pollution is nowhere near as bad as it is now. BUT I know that won't happen in my lifetime. Yeah we might have the technology now but good luck getting everyone to upgrade their lighting systems!

Welp, as I thought, 3 days of work has sent me into another burnout spiral. Thank fuck I did have the 6 days off though, or this would have been a lot worse, considering just how busy we were this week. Either way I'm finding myself losing track of significant amounts of time, and that's probably not good. So, time to get out of the house for a bit and hope that helps

Oops, did my job a little too well apparently; dispatch was planning a double run for the freight I was to load, and I managed to load 95% of it into one trailer anyway. No point in doing a second run for freight that would barely fill a quarter of a trailer! (had I known that was the plan I would have probably saved half the freight I did load for a second trailer. But all I was told was load what I want so long as two specific shipments made it in at the end!)

Really not looking forward to going back to work tomorrow. Not just because it's going to be busy as hell, but it's just hard to go from 6 days off to full blast. I just hope the next 3 days doesn't undo the rest I got from the last 6

Oh I'm about ready to throw my phone out the window. I keep dropping my data connection for NO reason. I've been in the same 10 foot radius area for the last 10 hours, but I keep having to force my phone into airplane mode every 15 minutes at times to get my data connection back >:C

goofy misinformation, usa map 

there has been some confusion among my foreign friends about the names and locations of the states. i, a resident of the usa, have decided to make this handy map to clear up any confusion :)

So my body razor's power cable is apparently really frayed and cracked. But I'm happy to see that it's designed really smartly, because even though it was cracked, frayed, and flaking, the copper wire was not bare. Turns out the individual wires are coated in a clear plastic, with the power cable itself coated to keep them together and protected.

Well I was planning on streaming an insanity aLttPR run but my net connection is too slow, and my phone's net connection is insanely unreliable to tether off of.
