Hey, so, I've been unemployed for about a month and a half and it couldn't have come at a worse time.

If you know anybody who needs a developer for React, Angular 1.x, Node, or anything I could reasonably learn on the job, please put me in touch.

I've got a mortgage on a house I'd lose money on selling and can no longer afford, medical bills for several surgeries, a car payment, and alimony to boot. I'm no longer in any place to be picky.

I can provide my LinkedIn or my GitHub to anyone who's got a serious prospect.

Thanks and please boost!

someone using a particular bad thing you did as an infinite source of ammo to justify their shitty behavior towards you is probably abuse

don't tolerate it from your SO and definitely don't tolerate it from online "friends"

irony poisoning is out

sincerity is in again

update your social media strategies

pls rember that wen u feel scare or frigten
never forget ttimes wen u feeled happy

wen day is dark alway rember happy day

@moonman From another conversation I had:

"The accusation is that Gargron used an existing protocol to have instant activity on his application, and in some sense he did. It made it seem populated. I think that's a big part of why there weren't Local Timelines for a while, too.

GS resents that someone who doesn't share their ideals came in and "capitalized" (as one can with social capital, anyway) on their community."

People keep coming up surprised or disgusted that the ACLU or EFF defended the civil liberties of a group they disagree with

That's the whole point

Civil liberties are there to defend unpopular opinions

Popular ones don't need defense

On a much more boring technical note, Mastodon's current implementation of ostatus isn't even accurate to the spec. Before the new user explosion, we were running up GNU Social and postActiv server error logs into the tens of gigabytes with malformed message errors, from messages Mastodon servers sent.

I know Gargron isn't on the best of terms with many GS people, but if community volunteers would step up and look at these issues, it'd make all of us better citizens of the Fediverse.

Hey Mastodon, I heard this was the new Twitter. I came prepared with a list of people I hate based on their identity descriptors and old arguments in a 140 character space. I'm very grateful to be given the chance to regurgitate my old twitter beefs onto your new platform. I've also been here for about ten minutes but here's a six page essay on things this platform needs to change.

How do I get verified?
