sup bluesky! I guess I'm going to start actually using this thing.

Since I'm on bluesky, I'm either a developer or an anime artist. I'll let you guess. But here's a hint: I suck at drawing and I suck at coding 😉
I did a thing! I got the Hacktoberfest 2025: Supercontributor badge from Hacktoberfest @hacktoberfest @digitalocean! www.holopin.io/hacktoberfes...

Do you use a pomodoro app to stay focused? Do you get distracted looking for instrumental music on youtube? Do you use @raycast.com?

If so, wow ok that's pretty specific! But also, if so, then maybe this lil post I made is of interest to you. michaelraymond.dev/posts/script...

yo wtf I can’t believe this is real
Wow: after 15 years, YouTube has taken down the original 'Rick Roll' video due to a "licensing issue," likely due to the acquisition of Astley's record lable.

The metadata remains, but if you click through it goes to 'video not found':

Hey artists! 👋 That art share you’re hosting belongs in a museum! 💙

We’re building a little game that lets you link a Bluesky feed or post and it will display your images in an art gallery. Just like Bluesky, it hides posts for logged-out viewers if you have visibility off. 🙂

I'm tired of people telling me 'Get well soon!'

You wouldn't say that to someone with an incurable cancer, disease, or other health issue.

Why would you say it to someone with Long COVID? Please take the time to read up research and people's first hand experiences if you don't understand enough.
