I’m Married!

Before I met Amber I never expected to get married again. No joke, I really thought I’d just solo the rest of my life or just at most have a “life partner” that’s close but I’m not legally attached to, because it was a terrifying thought to be legally attached to pretty much anyone.

Then I met Amber, and she’s my life partner. She’s it. She’s my ride or die, and now she’s my wife.

I love you, my wife. More! ❤️

Docker Compose Update

Fuck my fucking life, I’m a goddamn fool. I’ve been doing too much when it comes to updating docker containers. It turns out there is a better way. What is this “better way”, you ask? Here goes.

# docker compose pull
# docker compose up -d

Boom. You don’t even have to stop the containers. You run those two commands and your shit will be updated and running with the new update real fuckin quick. It’s kinda awesome and I wish I weren’t such a moron so that I could’ve known that right away. Alas, I only learned this recently. Still though, better late than never.

Reddit

Reddit is a solid example of CIA-style dialogue control and narrative manipulation. Not all of the “moderation” that goes on in the various corners of reddit falls into the category of “manipulation by shadowy entities”, but certainly anything that doesn’t fall into that category surely is attributed to the petty wants of whatever moderator is wading through the muck. The moderators of reddit almost universally suck, and honestly they should be replaced with Bayesian spam filters and CSAM autodetection systems at most, with an occasional janitor to prune the worst contributions. Instead, reddit consists almost entirely of wildly entitled morons just espousing whatever idiotic tripe they deem fit for mass consumption.

Frustration

Not gonna lie, one of the most irritating aspects of “co-parenting” with someone diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder has to be the absolute disrespect suffered by the other parent at basically every juncture. Borderlines are incapable of respecting the other person’s time, so they’re pretty typically late with everything they promise; whether it’s dropping off or picking up. You can always count on them being late and you’re always better off just not scheduling anything on days you know they’re supposed to do some driving.

Friday

It’s my favorite day of the week once again! Truly, the freedom associated with Friday is absolutely fantastic. I’m excited to break out of here as soon as humanly possible and get my ass lodged into the couch as deep as I can go; maybe drink some beers and pop an edible prior. It’s just a great feeling knowing that I won’t be rudely awoken by a digital nag in the morning. I love it. I wish that Friday feeling could be bottled and sold- I’d be a goddamn billionaire. Don’t say fentanyl, that’s not the feeling I’m trying to express, you jaded goon! I mean actual relief that the toils and troubles foisted upon you the previous four days just melting away. That’s the feeling. That’s the essence I want to bottle and take to market. Anyone know how I might be able to do that? I guess I should think on it for a bit. Coming soon: Injectable Friday. lol.

Laid Back

I think Zed is now my favorite text editor overall. Can’t really explain why, as I don’t even use the goddamn AI features yet. I do intend to at some point, but I just can’t be bothered to invest the time at the moment. I’m so goddamn lazy after I get home from work. I try to make sure I do at least one productive thing a day. I don’t always live up to it, but I try to keep in mind that even on days when I’m not feeling it generally I can still just force myself to do something small to least have done something.

Grind

God dammit. I’ve been off work for four days and I really would prefer to have another four days off rather than return! Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck.

I guess I had better start paying idiot tax if I ever expect to skip work for prolonged periods while also avoiding symptoms of joblessness.

Sidebar: I’m very tired of ads. I’m running pihole at home, and I install youtube adblock on pretty much everything with a screen. Yet I still am subjected to ads care of Apple’s restrictive nonsense not allowing me to bypass ads on AppleTV. Irritating. Massively fucking irritating. I don’t care about ads, they’re a waste of economic effort, because anyone using ads to promote a product is likely hucking absolute shit. Advertisers: Go fuck yourselves, you’re social parasites and I hope you all die slowly of stage five cancers.

Derision

I’ve been spinning my wheels on this goddamn blog for years now. Basically since it began, if we’re being honest about it. I need to figure out what the hell I want to do with it.
