elizWatching Derek Jarman’s “Blue” right now and drinking scotch of questionable quality.
suzannePeople often wonder why printers are so cantankerous but frankly any device that embeds pigmented runes in the remains of long-dead trees is going to be stricken by an ancient faerie curse from the start
Aviary AddisonI saw things you humans couldn't find faith for. Attack ships burning off of Orion's arm. I was watching C-rays spark in shadows at Tannhäus's Door. All such instants will vanish in history, akin to sorrow in rain. Now, I pass.
A striking aspect of depression for me is that I have no motivation to do things that I want to do; in fact, I don't even know what I *want* most of the time.
I go to work, take care of my family, make sure I meet my obligations. But I don't have the motivation to do things solely for me. I want to hide under the covers much of the time, but that's a nonstarter and is hard to adequately explain.

I guess I should do an intro. :grinning:
I'm Rob, a black SRE/cloud engineer living in Philadelphia. Mostly dealing with OpenStack and Ansible for a TV and Internet provider.
Outside of this, I enjoy time with my family, listening to tons of music, attempting to teach myself to play music, geeking out on fountain pens, and doing what I can to make things less craptacular.
