Glad to see we're back up, I've only been lurking though :(

Please ask for help when you need it. Don't ever let anyone shame you for needing/asking for help. There is nothing shameful about needing help.

Your health and safety is more important than false ideas of social standing.

If I didn't ask for and accept help from people, I wouldn't be alive right now. I'm still far from okay, but I wouldn't be here.

Help others as much as you can. Ask for help when you need to. We are in this together.

If you like #mastodon you would have loved the internet in the late 90s.

Here's your one and only chance to take that back. No, not only on twitter.

Don't centralize your life. Don't rely on a single corporation helping them accumulate too much power. Like Facebook or GMail.

Diversify and try to control your own data.

Facebook rep came to visit at work. We have puppies in the office, no babies.

@GinnyMcQueen Of course! I think I ate my weight, it's always my Easter goal.

Many people don't know this, but it's possible to read something you don't agree with on the Internet and simply move on with your life.

Today I helped prevent a possible accident. Slowed and rerouted traffic when a car died on a blind turn until the police came.

@JonnyNomad Thanks Jonny! Yeah, the bike does outshine the bunny suit, I agree. It's a beautiful beast.

@SteveJohnson sounds like a fun adventure! Look forward to stalking you ;)

@SteveJohnson It's a great bike (the FZ-07) it's just I'm a dork like that with ABS. It's not that I ever use it, it's just that I commute everyday in California and it gives me a tiny piece of mind. I'd love a bumblebee FZ though!

@SteveJohnson Hah thanks! To be fair, the AT is cuter, but I try at least once a year to show it up.

@SteveJohnson Oh! I love FZ's. I almost got one but the lack of ABS kind of veered me away. Silly Yamaha!

Last night I hooked up with Wallace Roberts (right), a fellow developer who lives in Casa Grande. I happened to be in Tucson the rest of this week, so we met half-way at a taco shop in Marana called, "Nico's". Wallace is a good guy, great sense of humor. That's his wife in the background. He rides a Yamaha FZ-07, while his wife rids a FZ-09. I'm without bike right now because I'm on my way to buy a toy hauler in Indiana. octodon.social/media/sDg7Mn3G0

See? Totally wasn't lying about my suit!

So I rode to work in a pink bunny outfit on my . Yeah, that's me. I can't say it's the first time either.

I'll see if I can get a pic tonight. Can't really selfie and ride!

@mjb And the only Californian vegetarian who doesn't like Avocados. I like to keep things real.

@rhorsman good idea, I need some more Indian spices!

It's really hard to train my Pandora station to not play Rush.

*thumbs down Rush*
no really *thumbs down Rush* again
oh, come on!

First world problems right here.
