Wish I could easily post audio clips because I’m finally making real progress. Turns out rediscovering my emotions actually made me… y’know, not terrible at music.
It’s still pretty shit, but at least it finally sounds like actual music following actual structure

I need to get "I don't think it means what you think it means" on my forehead so people stop telling me these sayings that they keep missinterpreting by taking them literally.
Sayings are not meant to be taken literally.
They're a compression algorithm.
Fuck.

Capitalism is exploitative sorting
Communism is forced sorting
Can we just do like a system where you kinda sort yourself and get guided instead of forced, coerced or manipulated? Thanks.
*isms seem to me like someone's agenda dressed as moral framework. Don't like it.

My mad prophet thought of the day:
Systemic stagnation creates pressure for transformation,
and if we refuse to evolve, collapse becomes unavoidable.
Good morning.

Gave The Foundation a try because I remember skimming through the book like 10 years ago.
It's worth reading as a time capsule of science fiction with some fun ideas.
Not sure if it's worth watching, first episode sets terrible vibes of a wannabe smart show.

For now the best way to undo some damage is to mass complain everywhere we can about very targeted issues.
Make your representatives actually like... Representing you.
It not going to solve our problems but it's a start

Finished The Expanse. Now I need to read the books because season 6 sucks and Amazon cut it short. Thanks #Amazon for being cunts as always, perfectly predictable Amazon behavior.

#Telstra #Australia why does your updated “Add Data Pack” UI redirect to a 90s-era portal that doesn’t remember the selection?
Who signed off on this flow? Can I speak with the product owner responsible and someone above them? This feels like a serious process failure.
I also look for a new job

Okay some shower thoughts.
I think #Microsoft should start parallel next gen #Windows.
Create a little DOS/Win32 ghetto for all the companies still running VB6.
For everyone else:
- focus on NT kernel, it's good. Dare I say might be better than Linux in some applications
- kill win userspace
