Former tech journalist of 20+ years - still dealing with that trauma in therapy, here now for the shitposts and wry observations on life, mostly NSFW. Definitely not for minors, of interest to miners, or relevant to mynahs either. Dare to be stupid.

If you’re tired of feeling like there’s nothing that you can do to help make the world a better place besides voting, I’m here to tell you that there is…

Volunteer.

Food banks, soup kitchens, senior centers, blood banks, animal shelters, and more. Find a place where you can be in the service of others. Where you can give back to the community that you live in.

It’s a great way to get out of your own head. Serve others, and serve the better parts of yourself in return

I gotta tell you kids these days, as a #GenX I really thought quicksand, sleestaks, hot nuclear Soviet death and AIDS were gonna get me long before middle age kicked my ass.

When we adopted our cat Beau, he came with a diagnosis of FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus). The vet advised us to watch for secondary infections, especially respiratory, eye and ear problems, and encouraged us to give him a stress free environment. He's very healthy, I'm happy to say.

Whenever I see this floppy ragdoll boi lying on his back, belly and paws raised, I feel like he's definitely living a stress-free life.

There are songs I simply don't get sick of, no matter how many times I hear them in public spaces like retail stores. Mocki's "Weekend" is one of those.

One of my fondest memories from being in IT back in the day was being told to discard a particularly troublesome laser printer and absolutely beating the motherfucker to death before throwing it in the bin. It was like Office Space meets The Purge.
