"Very expensive tech support on my brain" may be the most accurate description of how therapy feels I've ever read.
This is not to disparage therapy in general; I know many for whom it seems invaluable.
My last experience with therapy set me back considerably. Still recovering.

This reminds me pleasantly of some of the "get to know me" memes that would circulate around LiveJournal.
I'm not an artist so ignore that block of questions, but if you want to ask me preferences about programming (or anything else) in a comment, feel free.

Resurrecting a project I originally started back in 2015, written against Java 7.
In less than a day I managed to migrate build systems and upgraded all the dependencies (Jetty, UnboundID SDK, Hazelcast, HttpComponents, Log4j) to their current versions. Not bad.

I'm here to discuss not discussing not discussing mainstream politics.
i’m here for the latter, but people here still keep bringing up mainstream politics while going “isn’t it nice that we don’t have to discuss mainstream politics here?”
The "bluesky is an echo chamber" think pieces that keep popping up really tickle me because they show how certain people genuinely believe social media should be for debating and arguing and not talking about the things that make you happy and sharing art with the world.

Dear Mr. DiGiorno,
Have you ever read one of those terrible literary novels that are, like, set at a small midwestern college, maybe somewhere in Ohio, and the plot is all about a professor whose marriage is falling apart, and then he has a tragically doomed 1/x

I used "Sky Follower Bridge" to find people who have moved or opened parallel accounts here from X, and I'm guessing some are imperfect because I know have an account posting in German on my feed.
From what I've been able to understand or have translated, it doesn't seem like a bad follow though.

Is there a keyboard shortcut for send? On other platforms, CTRL+ENTER will send, but apparently not on this one.
I can SHIFT-TAB to highlight the "Post" button and then activate it, but that feels klunky and inelegant.
