these days i am trying to write more just to put pen to paper. writing is the medium through which i clarify the jumbled thoughts in my head. by reflecting on your own writing, i can shine a light on my internal inconsistencies. i can...
It's true y'all, sometimes you just need to touch grass. Or soil. I've felt so out of tune with everything lately — with myself and especially with my body, with others, with nature, with the world. Nothing really made sense to me...
I bought an entry level fountain pen recently, which is something I'd been thinking about for a long time, but I hadn't gotten around to it until a few weeks ago. Even though I had years to research the purchase I just impulsively...
AAAAAARRRGGHHH!!!!!! A customer just cancelled one of the recurring events they were running and picked the wrong date - last week instead of next week. So instead of refunding the two tickets that were sold for the show, they refunded...

Age verification requirements for operating systems are a bad idea promoted by people desperate to avoid dealing with technological complexity. They deliberately choose to mislead instead of doing the hard work. They willfully disinform...
I saw today that Plex is increasing the cost of its lifetime pass by a truly eye-watering jump of US$500, taking the price from US$249.99 to US$749.99. I’m a Plex lifetime pass holder. I bought it at what now seems to be a bargain...
When reading Bearblogs or Mastodon posts, it feels validating to see I am not the only one hesitant about (generative) AI. It feels like we the people are fighting in unison against Big Tech. I just don't think that's the case in real...
This is my first post on Bear. Hello! I have had a hankering to write publicly for some time now. I have had a habit of writing at least 500 hand-scrawled words in a journal daily for many years now, but the practice is too insular to...
