  • i joined beehaw and bluesky in the same week. i think it’s fun! lots of artists and indie game devs on there. i didn’t use twitter and don’t really like mastodon, so i don’t have any point of comparison. seems to me that moderation is lacking and/or apathetic. there’s been a heavy focus on US political issues. there’s a lot of stuff that i don’t want to see, but i mute often and that has improved my browsing experience. it’s been more friendly and welcoming than pretty much any other social media site i’ve tried so far. i also do not prefer microblogging platforms, but i’ve been having such a hard time with hateful comments across various platforms in the past few months, bluesky has been refreshing for me in that sense.

    i went through a similar experience with my mom many years ago. my brother bought me a new door handle with a key lock and installed it for me. he kept one key (as my backup, in case i accidentally lock myself out) and i had the other key. getting that peace of mind in terms of privacy is worth it.

    i would recommend to try to save up and purchase a reliable new lock and guard those keys as much as you value your privacy.


  • my therapist recommended a book called “Strengthsfinder 2.0” by Tom Rath. there’s an online quiz that you fill out and it determines your personal top strengths.

    i was in my 3rd career at that point, having doubts about whether i should continue with this career or consider switching to something else. this book and the quiz helped to reassure me that the career i am in was the right one for me.



  • rich person threatens legal action because he is losing income due to his own actions. got it.

    Yaccarino, a highly respected TV advertising executive, was appointed in May with the task of restoring relationships with advertisers a priority. In 2021, advertising accounted for 90% of X’s revenue but that income stream has been hit by companies pausing ad spending over doubts over Musk’s leadership.

    i’m also curious how long Linda Yaccarino is going to last. she’s been around since May, given the job of cleaning up messes after Elon. her pay and benefits are probably very good, but what’s the real cost of this bullshit? is it worth it? is it possible for her mental health to remain in good condition while she deals with this? we’ll see!
