Let YouTube take me on a “FOSS but make it right-wing” rabbit hole and actually came across three (3!!!) different videos claiming that “the overton window is being pushed further and further to the left every day!” These videos were made by people in the US! Make it make sense.

Anybody come across a “this person knows their shit”’s prediction on when the AI bubble will burst? I feel like it will be easier to wait if I know how long I have to wait for.

Today’s big adventure included buying new headphones (Koss Porta Pro Wireless 2.0), getting home all excited to test them, realizing they have a terrible noise floor that sounds like gurgling water coming from a hissy speaker ONLY on the left driver, and then returning them within an hour.

watching YouTube with my cat = quality time

funny and unsurprising how every russian musician’s bio now starts with “berlin based” or “amsterdam based” or whatever. bruh u not fooling anyone.

I have finally/unfortunately had techno “click” for me and now it’s all I’ve been listening to for more than a week.

As I’m out here trying to discover new music/artists/video-makers the most exhausting part of it is double-tripple checking that people don’t have a russian background. #JustWarThings

In the latest episode of “toni’s ADHD has served up another hyperfixation” — I want to buy a DJ controller and live my life as my true self, “the dude that always knows what song to play next at a gathering”.

www.youtube.com/watch I love seeing how people go about their creative pursuits, and this “start-to-finish” vlog about the journey of writing a novel really rekindled my motivation to write a book. I’m not saying I’m starting today, but I do now own Scrivener and I did outline my first draft.

Finished reading: Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir. This was a re-read, but it still felt thrilling the whole way through. 5-Stars. Again. I read it with my GF and she also gave it 5-Stars. Extra good feeling of recommending a book the other person likes. Overall — 6-star experience!
