I am genuinely afraid that the DNC will lose seats in the midterms because they never regained the trust of the impoverished people they are sincerely attempting to support and improve the lives of through their policies, but they denounced as “deplorables” and ignored subsequently. Rural poor are poor.

It’s so frustrating to watch people I’ve known for years, who grew up resisting authority and distrusting government, start believing professional politicians, marketers, and other liars who would own society just because they started stealing your words and wearing your clothes.

Politics hasn’t changed. Those who would rule did not magically become trustworthy. You just suddenly became useful to them when you could vote, pay tax, and die in their wars, so they learned to tell lies you’d hear.

It is springtime.

Pros: nice bike weather
Cons: so much tree bukkake

Lost four games in a row with Even Paladin because I ran into Murloc Paladin and Cubelock, lost with Quest Rogue to Murloc Paladin, finally won one with Quest Rogue against Shudderwock Shaman. This #Hearthstone meta is stupid and I think I’m going for Odd Quest Warrior soon because this is just blind paper-scissors-rock where I don’t have a rock because Cubelock is too expensive.

There is a unique nonnegative integer equal to “the number of distinct humans on Earth, past or present, who have deliberately tasted the milk of a housecat” and I would be surprised if this integer was zero and yet highly distressed to contemplate its probable nonzero nature

Are veterinarians trained to milk cats?

To the unknown stranger who graffitied “LOCK ->” on the inside of this bathroom door that looks like it should lock to the left instead of the right but doesn’t: I genuinely thank you

Started writing an angry hot take on tech politics, thought better of it, blocked a few people instead, Mastodon is like that

Don’t argue with strangers on the Internet, it’s not worth it

My “gentle reintroduction” to DOTA after several weeks of not playing apparently involves wining a thoroughly one-sided stomp as Underlord in Turbo Mode. Turbo Mode isn’t real DOTA but it gets rid of most of the queue anxiety that even Unranked produces.

Ah, my first “getting soaking wet because the forecast said the rain wouldn’t be until after the commute but it was wrong” of the year. Usually happens much sooner than May, honestly

Remember, it's been less than 80 years since ENIAC was the single most powerful computer in the world
