Stop me if you’ve heard this one before. You boot your work computer up, and you give it five or so minutes to settle after the initial shock of it being asked to do things after peacefully sleeping. Then you notice that it’s been a minute, and your computer should be ready to go, but you click on the “Start” menu and nothing happens. So you do the dirty deed and you press Ctrl + Shift + Esc and look at what the hell is consuming your entire laptop’s resources, and causing the fucking thing to swap to disk. What’s that process?

I write a lot of negative stuff on here. Most of the positivity in my life has stayed within the four walls of my home, and to an extent my place of work. I think it’s time to change that, though. I’m sure everyone loves to see me seethe and boil on here, or everyone just cringes as I shout like a lunatic into the ether. Either way, I think I’m going to mix it up. I’m going to write about things I’m grateful for, things I like, and things that overall make me happy.

At Least 42 People Found Dead Inside Truck Carrying Migrants In Texas.

These deaths are on Biden.

They are a result of his deadly open border policies.

They show the deadly consequences of his refusal to enforce the law. https://t.co/8KG3iAwlEk

Here’s a moronic leap of logic for you: “Your open borders are killing people.”

Except the people dead were trying to cross illegally. They were doing so because THERE IS NO LEGAL RECOURSE FOR EXPATRIATING TO THE US. BECAUSE THE FUCKING BORDERS ARE NOT OPEN. THEY WOULD BE ALIVE IF THE BORDERS WERE OPEN.

Four day streak of shotgun posts to the blog!

It’s always annoying to be waiting on a part to do the next thing you have to do. I’m not sure there’s anything I could be doing right now to mitigate the time loss, but even if there was, it wouldn’t be mitigating much. Work stoppage is work stoppage. This game is full of that, and the mantra is almost universally “hurry up and wait”.

With the new setup synchronizing across multiple mobile devices with git and statically generating content quickly with Hugo, you guys are gonna be bombarded with useless shit all day every day. By “you guys” I mean the two or three people stalking this blog and the 100 or so bots constantly combing it for vulnerabilities or god knows what else. Pretty soon I think I’m going to get back into the habit of making posts with a bunch of memes. I’ll be honest, though, I don’t come across memes as often now as I used to. In fact, my meme-absorption rate has gone down to virtually nothing. That said, I guess the meme posts will still be rare, but I’d like to at least put together a few this year. I guess I’ll pack that one under “we’ll see”.

I think the US is still reeling from recent events. The overturning of Roe v. Wade is likely going to be felt until it has been reversed completely, permanently. I don’t know if we’re on the path for that, though, and I fear things will get worse before they get better. I’m going to weather the storm, though. I’m going to press on because I have loved ones to think about. I have to think about their health and welfare, as well as their futures.
