This Is the Title of This Story, Which Is Also Found Several Times in the Story Itself, by David Moser

Not sure if I've preciously recommended this piece of experimental fiction, but it's a quick read, well worth your time.

@delila @fesshole then they sent them from a locked and bolted room; I had to fake that it was hard

@thomholwerda I use it for aarch64 stuff too, although there are fewer packages there.

Barker: yeah i wonder why

Friends, we're all increasingly overwhelmed as a baseline (except for some luckily privileged people &/or sociopaths). That means when we are acutely overwhelmed, it is tough.

Please give grace to yourself & others to the extent you can.

Please take care of the small animal that is your body.

Please let go of anything that's not necessary (you probably already have, I know).

Please reach out, please offer help, as/when you can. 1/n

I hope we can get each other through somehow.

#Polycrisis

By the way, the idea of one's body as a small animal is something I picked up from Mary Oliver's poem Wild Geese. I love both the concept and the poem very much.

Wild Geese
by Mary Oliver

You do not have to be good.
You do not have to walk on your knees
for a hundred miles through the desert repenting.
You only have to let the soft animal of your body
love what it loves.
Tell me about despair, yours, and I will tell you mine.
Meanwhile the world goes on.

@DarkestKale good luck, Luna! (Teef removal is the thing ours have been for a lot.)

hugs you

I'm sorry what?

@dominusexult I miss you guys too. Please relay my appreciation and hugs to everyone.

It's been an eventful year, although not that much of it game collecting related! (Some, though.)

also, for search engines: "we search for what you enter, not some random bullshit that seems statistically similar to what you enter" and "we obey search operators" for the exact same reason

@zzt Ah crap, is NixOS fascist too? I’ve been living under a rock. I was playing around with it the other day and thought it was neat, but I guess I’ll count myself lucky that I’ve only installed it in a VM.

@ErickaSimone @ai6yr the fucking gall of them, holy shit
