  • I knew a guy who had a mild (but noticeable) deformity and was also gay. He was at a friend’s house and the friend’s mom asked him “did you choose to be gay?” (or some form of that question). The mom was genuinely trying to understand more and it wasn’t ugly… she just didn’t know any better

    His response was great; “I already have this ‘deformity’ that makes my life hell in school, why would I ever choose something that would make my life any harder?”

    And the mom gained new understanding that day— never questioned it again



  • Well, you just saved me a bunch of time trying to figure out how to auto-update my humble little server. Granted, I only have Plex and Samba Share right now, but I like the principle. Hell, an update once blanked my smb config file for whatever reason

    Now auto-backups are another thing; because I would like to use a .tar file, but then it leads me down a rabbit hole because I don’t know how to repair Grub if needed for a restore, or what Grub really even is vs Bios… I’ve just been learning as I go

    I’m a few weeks away from getting a couple parts for an upgrade, and then it’ll be some fun. I want to redo it from scratch and maybe set up proxmox and change my file system to zfs, then start looking at docker, figure out Jellyfin and look at some ARR stuff… maybe tailscale or headscale. Idk, it’s just fun cause it’s a hobby. I just haven’t had the storage or ram really, but soon



  • I was very close to taking mushrooms and watching the Kamala Vs Trump election results come in. I figured it would be a very difficult trip if he won, but that the experience would absolutely be once in a lifetime

    I talked myself out of it and probably (most likely) for the better, but I’ll always wonder what that experience would’ve been like. Awful, yes… but wildly unique, also yes. Maybe I woulda transcended or some shit if I could’ve hacked it lmao
