#NowPlaying an album I've been listening most of my life. It's part of my DNA, like it knows who I am. I remember being profoundly affected age 7. It was probably the first time I realised #classical music has a far greater emotional range than the pop music I'd been listening to. To be fair, I was probably tricked into listening to it simply because it had a 'space' theme and I liked #SciFi.

Tuesday was a bad day all around for Donald Trump, so enjoy this recap as we watch the walls continue to close in on him. https://statuskuo.substack.com/p/there-is-no-joy-in-trumpville?sd=pf
Weird fluffy advent, day 7
Time for a big fluffy snow monster I think.

You should have a brag doc.
noticed this "brag document" blog post I wrote going around again. I think a really nice way to do it is in a group of people who support each other during perf review season. Sometimes it's easier for someone else to see how great your work is!
A child: If I was a grown-up, I would eat ice cream for dinner every day!
Me, an experienced grown-up: Kid, when you're a grown-up, you won't even get fucking snacktime any more. ... Oh no shit sorry please stop crying.
@georgetakei Every year since 2016 it’s been “Thank god that year’s over”. And here comes 2023, asking someone to hold its beer.
Looking across the Brecons early one summer morning. Bonus points for spotting the sheep atop the ridge.
Dear reporters, news people, etc.,
The reason you're not getting any reach on Masto is because you need to interact. You just come here, post your news article, and don't engage with the community.
You will never get reach if you don't interact with people. This is not Twitter. This is not Facebook. If you want this platform to work for you, you have to become a part of the community, not just shout at us and leave. Forget everything you learned in the walled corporate digital gardens.
