I don't know if it's the best (what defines that?) but it's what I do.

I wake up, my dog notices and jumps around in excitement. I greet him, pet him, then take my phone, do the daily NYT Mini Crossword and browse around for a few minutes while he lies down again, waiting patiently. I stand up, go pee, then I take my dog out for a walk. Afterwards I prepare my oatmeal, then prepare my dog's food (it needs to soak a few minutes), go open all windows to get fresh air in, start the computer and quickly check my mails, then we both eat our breakfast while I check my RSS feeds.

I’m sure there is intelligent life out there but if we ever cross paths is very uncertain.

So!

Like so many things in their portfolio… It seems like only a handful of people work there.

If you're not using iTunes it's garbage. I don't want a library that's separate from Apple Music. Every time I want to get to an artist from an album that I added to my library (so I can access it quicker). If I click the artist there I only see a list of tracks from that artist I have saved. I have to click on a tiny button "show album in Apple Music" and there I can click on the artist to see everything that's available. Somehow it's not that complicated on iOS. On Mac it still feels like two apps stuck together with ductape.

I like the iOS version but on Mac it really sucks. They need to get rid of the old iTunes baggage and completely rebuild the app.

The problem is that I feel like the higher ups might some day look at who is bringing in money and who doesn’t and then think „Do we even need this guy?“. I feel useless. My previous job was very toxic about this stuff. They would punish me for not having any tasks even though it’s not my fault. Which is why I always make sure to tell people when I’m not busy and even suggest things I could do. Still, I get lots of downtime between projects in my current job. I kinda got used to it but it’s always nagging on me.

But bored? No. I always find activities to do. Play with my dog, do housework, read a book, play games, take a nap,… Even days with full downtime go by very fast. But I’m at home. It would be different if I had to be in the office and look busy all the time.

Glitches allowed?

If it’s in realtime, not even for unlimited money.

Don’t get me started on how uncool this country actually is. You only ever hear the good news.

Only if the instance you’re on is not one of those fuckers that block Threads.

The older I get the more remote I want to live. I just want a good grocery store, a hardware store, doctor and vet in approx 10 min drive distance and I need something to charge my car nearby. That’s all the „city“ I need. Otherwise I want peace and nature around me.

Exactly what I was gonna say.

I don’t mind the juice but more the whole pieces inside of cake or müsli, I find it’s a weird feeling even if I like them individually. Juice or cest is great everywhere.

I hate oranges (or orange type fruits) in cake or anything else basically. It just feels wrong somehow.

Bullshit AI generated article

RIP Affinity I guess

To be honest I don’t see a difference to Reddit other than it having much less users and content and more geeky at the moment.

Won’t me telling you how I don’t have those feelings make you even more depressed?

I have social anxiety though, so I don’t easily make new friends and even existing ones I don’t just contact randomly. I’m the worst smalltalker, I can’t bring myself to talk about meaningless stuff. I usually leave events early because my social battery is empty and I can only talk to 1-2 people there anyways and they probably don’t want me sticking to them all the time. I can’t dance in front of other people even though I love doing it at home.

I missed the head.
