Making a bunch of people with PhDs watch the Verhoeven Robocop and take it seriously, am I a monster

It's astonishing how hard it becomes to work on near-term deadlines when I still don't know for sure what I'll be doing for work in a few months

Good morning witches, where are you finding magic this week?

@linguangst ⚡🌌☕🔮💚🌌⚡

@jennatar oh OK I just think I said other things that were better in that conversation. IDK maybe I am not a great judge?

@avocado 💚 avo I had no idea

@pointers golden thread tarot!

@Holly Fair enough, and maybe more about the institution than the talks? (I had a friend who gave a TED talk once, the conference itself sounded pretty culty.)

Someone on the bird site just tweeted a TED Talk about cult deprogramming which is weird because I thought TED was a cult?

And like, that's not actually a reporter's job to tell you when something runs if they interview you, but it's something I try to do whenever I write something? Maybe this is why I am not a real writer.

I talked to a Wired reporter about Mastodon and she used most of the lame quotes and didn't tell me when the article went up, sorry and ugh

Help I was just told a joke where the punch line was "Aladdin and the magic LAMP stack"

At what point of deciding that a dog and a pickup truck are things one needs in one's life does a person literally become a country song

Was idly asked if I had plans for the solar eclipse this August and now I'm once again convinced I'm going to need to buy a car, goddamn it

THESE FEELINGS WILL PASS BUT YOUR SUBTWEETS WILL OUTLIVE YOU

@caseyg ooh this sounds great

This tarot app sometimes feels like a harshly real but caring friend

This morning I had an idea for a masto instance as LARP of Moby-Dick. Limited registration and only as characters in the book. A couple of bots to add atmosphere (ocean sounds, whale sounds) but mostly just an arena for Melville fanfic. Will federate so other instances can follow but users only interact with each other. Good idea or bad idea?

My rendition of "In Memory of Satan" is unparalleled and will remain forever secret, you're welcome

Dance like no one is watching, sing along to The Mountain Goats playing on your headphones like you're not on the C train and everyone is staring at you
