Before I came to Mastodon, my life had no meaning.

Now, it still has no meaning, but at least I’ve got all of you, and that’s something.

If you don’t feel the enthusiasm for Harris and Walz, that is your right. And also completely understandable.

But 100% of the effort you make to blunt others’ enthusiasm about them between now and election day is effort spent to elect Trump.

For your privacy and convenience, we have made choices that benefit our business.

I met a woman once who made her living as a Möbius stripper—she would spend the entire show turning the same garment over various parts of her body, never getting it all the way off.

AI didn’t ruin Google. Cynical content farmers ruined Google. SEO ruined Google. GOOGLE ruined Google.

Sorry, can’t. I’m engagement-farming by shitposting about Linux on Mastodon.

I always felt like the term "Vacation Bible School" was a three-way contradiction. No two of those words belong together.

Blocking somebody? Baller move. You’re in charge of your account. You decide who has access to you.

Telling someone, “I’m blocking you for that!” immediately before blocking them? Baby move. Your dysfunctional obsession with getting the last word in is showing.

Five Mayonnaise, to those who celebrate.

The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence you share with the neighbor who is retired and has no evident hobbies other than lawn care.

Yes, Coworker, constantly griping about your spouse *does* make you funny and relatable.
