my cowardice is in wanting nothing to do with position or influence. or maybe part cowardice part wisdom. the cowardice part is recognizing the higher you go, the easier it is to fall a ling way. the wisdom part is recognizing that when you fall with influence, you hurt others. and i never want to be responsible for something like that. Best to stay in the Shire. 😬

follower counts, reputation, being liked, being understood… none of them matter as much as the truth, and training yourself to say it even if it hurts.

calling corporate media “the press” is a psyop. the press is a mechanical device for printing. journalists are people who write for a living. “ the press” in the first amendment does not refer to a special class of people with special rights. it refers to the printing press. the implication being, congress can make no law abridging the freedom of speech, or what is printed. it doesn’t say, abridging freedom of speech, or professional journalists.

my weird, simple, useful plan9 desktop.

i dont care what you say about emojis. having a layer 2 sub language to clearly communicate emotional sentiment on top of text is genius. 🧠

we haven’t been paying attention. a significant portion of the political establishment in the US has been telling us, “we hate you. we hate your culture, your race, your families, your small businesses, everything youve built. we are going to destroy it, and replace you.” theyve been saying it to our face, and we havent been listening. we keep trying to explain it away. we keep saying, “oh they dont really mean it” Oh, they mean it. All of their actions and words prove it. The idea that you can ignore it is you hiding your head in the sand, hoping it will go away. Its not going away. No one is coming to save you. Put your boots on, and get ready.

it’s astonishing to me how many Americans are too fat, lazy, and stupid to recognize an attempted Communist overthrow when they see one.

break exercise rules. rather than 3 sets of 10 with short rests, do 10 sets of 10 over 10 hours. change it up. keep your body guessing and your creativity engaged

wow. Psalm 144

Im more concerned by Alby’s vapid corpo-speak responses than leaking email addresses.

TIL, stdin, stdout, and stderr are actually 3 readable, writable, mountable file locations in plan9 rather that just streams. Everything actually IS a file.

there is a healthy energy rush i get when i finish a ramen or a pho that i dont get from any other food. 🍲

oh man. heard some on the ground interviews of “no kings protesters”. its actually painful. shockingly painful how well meaning and unbelievably stupid they are. i cant even watch. 🙈

No Kings is the most vulnerable political theater episode ive seen in my lifetime. The entire attempt to create a movement could be coopted in a weekend by freedom people.

i want a pocket new testament printed in monospace font that just says ‘man jesus(1)’ on the front.
