Finding the ‘will’ to step away from the onslought of information (not to say doom scrolling or subjugation to msm propaganda) and coming back to everyday tasks seems to be the way out of the psychological hell. Where to find that ‘will’ if anger and grief is botteld up without an outlet?

This article may help find a way. In the end, it is all about making a decision (truly making a decision, not a wish). It’s a fine line between staying sane and balanced, keeping informed and switching off from anything but the immediacy of homelife.

Philippa Perry: How to cope with news of war in our social media age

Our suffering is nothing compared to those experiencing war, but our brains still process news of trauma as a threat. With a 24/7 media, it’s important to manage our attention and emotions for the long haul advises the Nerve's psychotherapist and agony aunt

Dear #Mozilla
You may not know this, but all of the people that used to love you, seeing you as the future of the internet and freedom and so on are keeping a keen eye on @servo right now.
Sure, it may take a few years for a functional browser to be a available, but we'll wait, we're good at that, and we'll support them financially, we're good at that too.
So, Mozilla, you have a choice: stop being absolute arseholes and stop this bewildering endorsement of all things wrong with the internet you claim to want to protect and focus on the browser, only the browser, just make a good browser. Or continue down this destructive path an lose everybody that actually cares (or, at least, cared) for you - if you haven't already lost them.

Ah yes, the riveting tale of someone leaving a job and deciding it's their civic duty to enlighten us all about "DevRel"—because obviously, the world was on tenterhooks about this niche field. 🚀 Spoiler alert: it turns out that tweeting about it is the modern-day equivalent of shouting into the void. 🤦‍♂️

Reflections on 2 Years Running Developer Relations

What is DevRel and do I need one?

WHAT IS TODAY EVEN. WTF.

Just want to say that as of now, my favourite iOS app for the Fediverse and my Pleroma instance is @pipilo's Pipilo.

Sideways scrolling, easy thread expansion with no fuss, functional remote instance views and a helpful developer. Takes a minute to get used to but vertical scrolling just seems noisy and messy afterwards.

Thanks for reading. #shoutingintothevoid ;)

A simple order the result list by date modified column would be nice (probably not too much to ask for tbh) when you search for a file in your #OneDrive.

Are you listening #microsoft #msft ? (I guess probably not)

Wish me luck. Addendum: nothing life threatening, or maybe not even that important in the grand scheme of things. Just nervous about some public speaking.

The best time to get off the bird place was when Elon took over. The second best time is now.

The person who has kept putting off “write this thing for Esther” for months -- and clearly did NOT want to do it -- is now listed as Deactivated in Jira and Slack. And marks herself as no longer employed by the company.

….So um now I don’t even know whom to ask to write-the-thing. #ShoutingIntoTheVoid
