I'll be impressed if I can even post this, but the Internet here in #Seattle is just awful.

My fiber line is down, and my backup cellular connection is not doing well.

I made "buffalo chicken" with high-protein tofu and Frank's hot sauce, and absolutely nailed it on texture and flavor! Extremely easy to throw together! #veganfood #food #dinner

Getting in on the #Mosstodon trend with some pics I took on my walk after work today at Frink Park & Leschi Park in #Seattle.

I'm confused? This sounds like your average cop to me.

Whole blogs dedicated to spreading fear about trans people. Reporting everything I can find and not seeing anything get fixed.

Can't wait to see Tumblr join the Fediverse and immediately get defederated by all the major players for hosting overtly transphobic blogs.

Hopefully they get their house in order before implementing ActivityPub.

I recommend a preemptive #fediblock until they prove they will be ethical players here.

Look at how adorable my cat Luci is.

My wife and I are never much into traditional Thanksgiving fare when we're celebrating as a couple, so we did Veal Parmesan with Marinara, Roasted Asparagus, and Angel Hair Pasta.

Happy Thanksgiving!

There's lots of Twitter users that have migrated here recently, and a good chunk of them have discovered the Mastodon Twitter Crossposter, which means your timeline is probably littered with sloppy looking retweets.

And you can rid yourself of them with this one simple filter:

Not giving them the exposure by linking to the article or posting a screenshot, but I will note that the person who wrote the article looks like this:

After lots of hard work, I finally have my own haus.

"Happy Holidays"

A local business, that I know is 100% WFH and has had an empty office for 2 years now, just posted these very depressing staged pics on Instagram with the caption "We celebrated Thanksgiving early at our new office space. Turkey with all the fixings! Mmmmmm."

Nobody's there...

It's 10am on a Friday, and the office doesn't even have furniture in it.

Venture Capitalist Paul Graham, who has had a broken certificate on his personal website for years now, wants to lecture people about how to manage a tech company.

The Onion truly is America's finest news source.

Ben Garrison's Kobe tribute vs. Hans Zweibel's Gallagher tribute.

I've been reporting this Neo-Nazi podcast for the past 4 months, and Spotify keeps telling me to "be patient" while they "look into this", and now they're complaining that I keep reaching back out since I "already opened a ticket".

They're dead to me.

Took a fun photo of the Bellevue skyline reflecting sunset from the Leschi neighborhood in Seattle.
