I went to bed, fell asleep fast, and woke up feeling totally rested - thinking most of the night had elapsed and the alarm clock was due to make its noise soon. Checked the clock: only 2 hours had passed. #TimeWarp

Every night when I go to sleep, the #cat insists on sleeping on the left side. If I'm in "his spot," he keeping making this noise until I move. Then he curls up exactly where he wants. It's not my bed - it's his, and I'm clearly just the tenant. #CatLife #CatsOfMastodon #FelineOverlord

Got some new food for the #cat to try out. I thought it smelled a bit too strong but he didn't hesitate for a second and gobbled it all up like a pig at a buffet. #caturday #CatsOfmastodon

Remember, folks, a challenging day is just the universe's way of saying, 'Hey, I heard you like character building, so I added some obstacles to your path.' But don't worry, you'll come out of it stronger, wiser, and with a way better story for cocktail hour. Keep marching onward, because tonight's story is tomorrow's legend! #ChinUp #ChallengeAccepted

Blessed are the free software warriors, for they shall inherit the documentation chaos. #FreeSoftware #SoftwareFreedom

@codewiz Does that mean you'll be there? If so I'll look for you.

@codewiz Yes it was.

They'll be at City Hall today at 5pm. There's already police presence & barricades.

If you have the time, energy, and heart to show up in support of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community through a peaceful counter-protest, you're welcome and valued. But stay safe, be smart, and follow all police instructions - not because I agree with the police but to avoid unnecessary arrests or harm.

Your presence & voice matters. Let's stand together - and stay safe doing it. #LGBTQIA #LGBTQ #TransRightsAreHumanRights

They could’ve stayed in Spokane. But instead, they brought their hate to Capitol Hill - our home, our neighborhood, our community. They came here not by accident, but by design - to provoke, to erase, to invalidate. And they expected us to be silent? We will not be silent. We exist. We belong. And we will never apologize for who we are because #TransRightsAreHumanRights #NoHateInOurCity #LGBTQ #LGTBQIA

Is it paranoia or prudence to maintain three independent off-site backups on three different continents? Asking for a future self who might thank me - or never notice. #infosec #backup #sysadmin

Woke up to find the #cat sleeping with me in the bed - standard routine. I'm the only one he sleeps with, the only one allowed to pet him. He runs from everyone else. When I come home, he runs to the door. When I call out his name, he comes. No idea why I'm the chosen one, but I'll take it. Meet Colin the cat. #CatsOfMastodon #CatLife

Woke up to a sharp pain in my arm this morning. Turns out it was a very happy cat, purring loudly while kneading on my left arm - completely unaware (or unconcerned) that those claws are sharp! At least someone’s having a good start to the day. #CatsOfMastodon #CatLife #MorningSurprise #PetStories

@neptune22222 Do you consider emulated hardware to be "real"?

The Lisp Machine revolution is underway. https://tumbleweed.nu/lm-3 #FreeSoftware #SoftwareFreedom

What if colors have flavors, but we just forgot how to taste light? Like, red is spicy, blue is chill, and green is just... forest crunchy?

Someone left their copy of VLC out. #FreeSoftware #SoftwareFreedom
