I am so emotionally exhausted all of the time.
I don't understand why I dread going to work when I like the people and I like the a work. I mean, I have a feeling the answer is depression, but it's still very inconvenient.
idk why I’ve been spending XOXO on Twitter when obviously Masto is the chill retreat I need. ANYWAY COME SAY HI I’m wearing a cherry patterned dress that HAS POCKETS.

social.coop meta, my opinions
Copied from chat:
Okay, so like others I anticipated this shit coming up eventually, but I have 3 jobs and developing a diversification strategy for an org dominated by clueless if well-meaning white guys is like...the kind of thing people get paid a year's salary for, not something a few people should volunteer to do on their own time. It's much, much harder to change direction once you've started. The rough outlines would have been:

Finally showed C Paddington, which was an excellent way to lift up a stressful week.

Do people shout at portraits as a convenience? “Dumbledore, what's 1 quart converted to cups?” “Snape, set the living room lights to 50%.” “Phineas, reorder trash bags.”
I accidentally started talking about names on the birdsite and now I’m crying at work whoops
“No one ever told them that a summer day can kill” is lowkey one of the saddest lines in Les Mis.

This is probably the single worst idea Twitter has ever come up with and I hope to god if it is actually implemented that it hastens its own death. https://twitter.com/_cingraham/status/1029829205675073536?s=21

Looking for more moderators for mastodon.social (paid), DM me if you are interested.
If I find someone I will reply to this toot, so if you find this much later than now please check it for replies before applying.
I'm really enjoying my second go-around on Masto but I would hop on a Tumblr revival so fast: https://theoutline.com/post/5811/why-tumblr-is-better-than-twitter-and-we-should-bring-it-back

From my reading people seem to want reply numbers for one of two reasons:
1. Lets you know whether it’s likely useful to reply if you see a questions asked
2. Lets you know whether there are replies to read
I think for first I’d rather just have the ability to lock replies to a post. The poster then controls whether they’re still interested or not in hearing from people about it.
This doesn’t solve the second case tho.

hi hello it has been pointed out to me that it is halfway through August and I have lost all sense of time
I thought I was sick-to-death of CSS professionally but now I'm at a shop that doesn't really take CSS seriously at all and apparently I'm still reeeaaaaal protective of all this.
