usually people have their own personal obsidian databases, and they use llms for *retrieval.*

i don't know when llms got so good, but they're good enough now to manage my personal wiki
The image shows a webpage for a personal wiki built with Wiki.js. The page has a clean, simple layout with a white background and dark text. At the very top is a black navigation bar. On the left side of this bar is the Wiki.js logo and the text “Wiki.js.” On the right side are small icons, including a search icon and a user or profile icon. Below the navigation bar, a large blue heading reads “Personal Wiki.” Under this heading is a short paragraph explaining the purpose of the wiki. It says that this wiki is a “source of truth” for many areas of the person’s life, such as infrastructure, projects, knowledge, procedures, and decisions. It emphasizes that if something is not written here, it effectively does not exist. A horizontal line separates this introduction from the main content. Next is a bold section title called “Sections.” Under it is a subsection titled “Infrastructure.” This section focuses on technical and home-lab topics. Below “Infrastructure” is a short description stating that it contains everything about the homelab, network, and self-hosted services. Following this are several bullet-style links, each starting with a small arrow symbol. These links include: Infrastructure Overview – a high-level view of a Proxmox homelab named “Ekaterina” Network – covering MikroTik, VLANs, ISP, and Tailscale Storage – mentioning NVMe drives, LUKS encryption, hard drives, and Mac Mini shares Containers – listing 16 LXC containers Services – including Plex, *arr stack, TubeArchivist, Basero w, Forgejo, and Wiki.js Backups – with tools like Restic, VZDump, disaster recovery, and Geyser Data Operations – topics such as Docker in LXC, GPU passthrough, and troubleshooting Flannery – a script related to an F13 hotkey for WSL terminal access The Late Great Encryption – describing a full-disk encryption migration, with some parts completed and others pending At the very bottom of the visible area, the next main section heading “AI” is partially visible, s…

This is a three-panel meme using a scene from The Simpsons, with altered visuals and added text for comedic effect. The scene features Homer Simpson and his neighbor Kirk Van Houten having a conversation while holding drinks in a kitchen or dining area with a view of a tree-lined backyard. --- Top Panel: Kirk Van Houten’s head has been replaced with a photo of a smiling man wearing a pink knit beanie, a dark shirt, and a backpack. Over his body, two cropped social media screenshots are superimposed: 2. Another tweet from the user "jon ben-menachem" which reads: "Anyway yes the people lighting trash cans on fire are doing more for the movement than smug anonymous lib twitter posts." Underneath, Kirk’s speech bubble reads: "I SCARE THE HOES INTO INACTION. DO YOU?" --- Middle Panel: A close-up of Homer Simpson looking startled or uncertain. His response, written in a caption below, says: "I POST ON NEXTDOOR ABOUT ICE ACTIVITY." --- Bottom Panel: A wide shot shows both Homer and Kirk standing with drinks in hand. Kirk smiles as he responds: "OH. YEAH."

if you're not in the apple ecosystem, you have four major options:

1password, Proton Pass, and Bitwarden - all of them have good free tiers.

and then, of course, you have the humble paper notebook

A three-panel meme made using a scene from *The Simpsons*. The scene shows Homer Simpson and his neighbor Kirk Van Houten standing indoors, both wearing casual summer clothes—white tank tops and red shorts—while holding drinks and talking. The meme has been edited to include new images and text for humorous effect. 1. **Top Panel:** The character Kirk Van Houten has been edited to have a photo of a woman over his face. She has long dark hair, wears a black face mask and black top, and gestures with her hands. Over her is a cropped screenshot of a social media bio with the username "talia jane" and a message that reads: *“voip number, burner email, VPN on ALWAYS”*, followed by a link to a news article about hacking. Text added beneath the image reads: **"I SCARE THE HOES INTO INACTION. DO YOU?"** 2. **Middle Panel:** A close-up of Homer Simpson looking slightly puzzled or unsure. He responds with the caption: **"I POST ON NEXTDOOR ABOUT ICE ACTIVITY."** 3. **Bottom Panel:** The camera zooms out to show both characters facing each other and holding drinks. Kirk (with the edited face) replies with a calm, understanding expression. The final caption reads: **"OH. YEAH."**

In stressful situations, you want people to be able to de-escalate conversations between allies - not inflame.

Will Stancil doesn't know how to de-escalate. Moreover, he's unwilling to use Claude or ChatGPT to modulate his words for him!
At the top, Will Stancil (@whstancil.bsky.social) responds with: "I’m sorry are you literally mad at me because I’m not steering money towards you" This is followed by a quote of a post from Steph 🖖 (they/she) (@snreyes.bsky.social), which says: "Stancil is valuable because of his large audience that crowdfunds can be shared across. But he can’t unilaterally make a decision about which press and which candidates to boost as a rank and file."

Guess what I've been doing for the last four hours
A social media post from a user named "standard🌷" (@standard.bsky.social) is shown. The post is written in lowercase white text on a dark background, and it says: “this is why i keep on telling **humans** to spend some time canvassing on the nextdoor app so they can relearn to hate the right wing instead of spending all day shitting of **humans**” The word “humans” appears twice in the text, but both instances have been visually altered. They are displayed in bold black text inside white rounded rectangles, making them stand out from the rest of the sentence. These altered words are edits replacing what were originally the words "liberals" and "leftists,"

Accessible image description: This image shows a welcome screen for the “Neighbors by Ring” mobile app. At the top left is the app’s logo and name, “Neighbors by Ring,” on a dark gray background. In the center of the screen is a large illustration of a video player window with a blue screen and a white play button in the middle, suggesting shared or recorded videos. On the left side of the illustration stands a person holding up a phone, with a small yellow dog at their feet. On the right side stands another person gesturing toward the video screen. Both figures are simple, cartoon-style drawings meant to represent neighbors. Below the illustration is a large heading that reads: “Safer Neighborhoods, Together.” Under the heading is a paragraph explaining that Neighbors is a neighborhood safety network. It says users can stay informed with local safety alerts and resources, and share information about safety incidents and lost pets with nearby neighbors. Near the bottom of the screen is a large blue button labeled “Join Neighbors.” Below that is a smaller text button that says “Sign In.” At the very bottom, small text reads “Version 4.24.3.” Overall, the screen is a friendly introduction encouraging users to join a community safety app focused on sharing local information.

This is a meme made using a scene from *The Simpsons* with added text and images to create a commentary. **Image Description (Accessibility-focused):** The meme is composed of three panels featuring characters from *The Simpsons*, specifically Homer Simpson and his neighbor Kirk Van Houten. The scene takes place in a living room where both characters are casually dressed in tank tops and shorts, each holding a drink. 1. **Top Panel:** Kirk Van Houten is edited to have a black-and-white photo of a serious-looking man wearing a hat and scarf superimposed over his face. A tweet by @stonetketttle is added, which reads: “Folks, some advice from an old intelligence officer who used to work for a *No Such Agency*: if you're going to join the underground resistance, you might want to avoid posting it on the internet, the real, social media, your calling to arms, your doctrine, your manifestos, your memes, signal, etc. Don't name, plan, or name your associates. Every bit of it is compromised, and in real-time.” Below the image and tweet, Kirk says: **"I SCARE THE HOES INTO INACTION. DO YOU?"** 2. **Middle Panel:** A close-up of Homer Simpson looking confused or surprised. He responds: **"I POST ON NEXTDOOR ABOUT ICE ACTIVITY."** 3. **Bottom Panel:** A wider shot shows both Homer and Kirk standing with drinks. Kirk replies: **"OH. YEAH."**

it always bums me out when a black person is clearly in the wrong on the internet, because you can't roast them too much without a white using their mistake as an excuse to be racist towards black people.

then for every joke you make about them, you also have to tell some white to check themself
This image is a screenshot of a social media conversation on the platform Bluesky. The conversation begins with a post from a user named **ernesto**, who writes: > "eh, this lukewarm hotep shit is the least capable ethnonationalism in existence" The post is timestamped 10:52 AM on January 22, 2026, and has 2 likes, 1 comment, and 2 reposts. Below this are replies between **standard** (she/we) and **ernesto**: 1. **standard** responds critically, saying: > "i'm not sure this is hotepism (which specifically involves a specific false version of history), and i think it's important to avoid misusing black terminology to criticize black people. otherwise we're just doing another flavor of racism" 2. **ernesto** replies bluntly: > "i disagree. i don't give a shit" 3. **standard** responds again: > "it's kind of like white conservatives using 'woke' to criticize any type of thing they don't like." In the conversation, **standard** raises concerns about the misuse of culturally specific language and the risk of reinforcing racism, while **ernesto** dismisses the concern without engaging in a deeper discussion.

The main body of the post is large white text. Two words in the text have been visually altered. The word “liberals” near the beginning has been replaced with the word “humans”, shown inside a white rounded rectangle with black text, making it stand out. Near the end of the post, the word “leftists” has also been replaced with “humans”, displayed in the same white rounded rectangle style.

The image is a screenshot of a post on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter). At the top left is the Daily Wire logo and the account name “Daily Wire,” shown with a verification badge. The background of the post is dark blue. The post contains large white text describing a political exchange. It says that Gavin Newsom “walks back” a statement calling ICE operations “state-sponsored terrorism.” Below that, the text is written like a short dialogue. One speaker, labeled “Shapiro,” says that Newsom’s press office used the phrase “state-sponsored terrorism.” Another line shows “Newsom” responding with “Yeah…” Then Shapiro says that ICE officers are not terrorists, followed by Newsom replying, “Yeah, I think that’s fair.” In the lower half of the image is a video still. It shows a middle-aged man seated indoors, speaking into a microphone. He has short, neatly styled gray hair and is wearing a dark button-up shirt. He is sitting on a brown leather couch. The microphone has a rectangular label attached to it. Behind him is a dark wall with framed photos and a mounted object that looks like a large glove or sculpture. The setting appears to be a podcast or interview studio. At the bottom of the post, small text shows a timestamp and view count, reading “7:24 PM · 1/15/26 · 279K Views.”

To the right of the profile photo is the display name “standard”, followed by a sandwich emoji. Below that is the username @standard.bsky.social. Under the name area is a rounded label that reads “she/we”, indicating pronouns. Below this header is the main body of the post, written in white text. The post reads: “i still want ‘ordoliberal’ ‘rehabilitation’ ‘villages’ for people who support great evil, but it could be ages until we have that power. So to accumulate that power, it would be helpful if we could peel off some of the less-dedicated Volk by talking to them. The words ordoliberal, rehabilitation, and villages are in quotation marks.
