@alex @crockwave I missed it live, but I'm subscribed to the podcast so I'll give the episode a listen

Really cool to hear @crockwave talking about the fediverse and future of social media at https://live.culturewar.radio

And this isn’t even counting the Pleroma BE stuff I’m working on.

It helps having people who support your vision.

@Grandtheftautism What is it, by the way, that you think contributes to getting past that "teenage angst"?

I remember hitting a sweet spot with my kids when they were young adults, old enough that they could take care of themselves for the most part but they weren't completely grown up yet, when they were past the teenage angst but not quite buried in the grind of their own careers and families. We'd go fishing and camping and have a BBQ once in a while and we'd have good bantz and conversation. We still have good bantz and conversation from time to time, but none of us have the time or money for taking trips together or simple bbqs and even if we did, it would be An Event rather than a effortlessly casual moment due to the logistics it takes to make those things happen now *sigh*. Those were really golden days, i miss em. But nothing gold can stay, as Robert Frost said.

I remember giving my son a beer when he was 20, just handing him an open Heineken, and his eyes got real big and he looked around and he said, real quiet, "Are you sure it's ok?" and I said, "Sure, this is just my way of saying i'm sorry i forgot your birthday," and we both laughed ourselves sick because his 21st wasn't for another 4 or 5 months. Goodness idk why im getting so sentimental all of a sudden, must be early onset Alzheimers

@realcaseyrollins Moods come and go. Enjoy the good ones but don't make that your reason for existing. I just BBQ'd some gourmet sausages on a sunny winter's afternoon and now chilling to some eighties tunes on my balcony. :-)

Shut up.

@realcaseyrollins @alex I don’t really plan on messing with this anytime soon because I’m not in a great mental state for free time programming. The code is here if anyone wants to put up an MR.
