@DialMforMara ohhh! Well then yea... if he's THAT guy then I totally with them.
My boss is talking about the horrible discomfort of being contacted for her class reunion by "the geek" of her class.
Me: Was he weird to you before or something?
Boss: You have to understand, this was awhile ago so geek... this was before-
Me: "...before empathy?"
Boss (completely missing my comment): "Before the internet, you know- before computers."
Worst part is nobody in the room even gets the burn.

Finally starting to get my head above water... 19 tickets down to 12. Pity most of them are waiting on something I can't control. #datamines
@Frankenbeans Sincere question: isn't that part of the expectations of a public federated toot? That has been much of the appeal and fun of mastodon for me, joining wider conversations and making new friends based on common interests. Other than you having a private/ non federated feed, what would be a good indicator for people like me to determine you don't want to be interacted with?
@LindaBloodworthAuthor Too like the lightning by Ada Palmer. It's set in a post nation world that has evolved from a global religious war. The solutions they use to hold the peace without despotism are imperfect but brilliant. Religion is a right but can only be discussed with a trained, licensed guide- no proselytizing. Gendered dress and language have become taboo and that's barely scratching the surface. If it doesn't blow your mind I'll give you $10 or it's equal in Bitcoin!
@willscire Hello friend! Welcome to the fediverse!

@NeuroWinter because blockchains are decentralization of currency itself, because it allows security without trust, because it is an immutable record with no motive, because it is as close as we get to digital credits from sci-fi that aren't controlled by a bank, because it's a mad experiment in probability that's constantly locking itself with an impossibly difficult key and trusting the network will break it, because it's fun to sneakily send cash over the web..because someday you may need to.
@Frankenbeans @Maniactive Favoriting this for later- thanks for putting this together!
@Frankenbeans Jealous! Last year I rented one. And the one of the tunes literally fell off while I was trying to break some very weeded over ground. I wish you better luck!
It's time for another phase of life improvement planning. Between programming goals, house goals and health goals (not to mention work) I've got a lot to keep track of. Anyone on here ever think of about using a ticketing system for your life? No? Just me? #Jira #NotFootprints
@MoriaCat @instajelly If you do, you should totally toot it. Sleep deprived posts are fun!
@instajelly I tried polyphasic sleep about 10 years ago. I did a modified every man schedule- I don't remember the specifics now but basically I had one big bigger sleep at night and three super short naps. My problem wast social life- I was just starting to date the gal who would become my wife and if she wanted to do anything (or another friend had a LAN party, etc) I'd skip a nap. I think I made it only a couple of weeks, but it's still super fascinating to me.
@0x11de784a now I gotta ask, out of curiosity- what is your field?
@viciousviscosity SAME. It takes me forever to clear a single dungeon in Skyrim because I'm like "wait; I don't think I've read this edition of 'The Lusty Argonian' yet..."
Anyone know if there are tools or instances that let you use different interfaces? Perhaps one that looks like an excel spreadsheet so it can be used incognito at work? #askingForAFriend
