Peak #MySoCalledSudoLife today:

🧱​ I created a custom-built case for it with LEGO (see: https://mastodon.social/@_elena/116912226996146067)

👩‍💻​ I installed #HomeBrew on my Macbook Air this morning and I'm currently installing #Meshy

🙌​ endless gratitude towards my Mesh guide @stereo who has the patience of a zen master and helped me through all this #GratefulForYou

I've about stopped caring, but yesterday I was not able to find *any* credible source that would confirm #ElaineChow ever returned from #China

Apparently there was some political / diplomatic reason she did not

Also, many reports that:

"“The Senator’s health did not warrant an immediate return to the US,” a spokesperson for Chao told multiple outlets" statements

There

I'm done with it

Dateable POL video only, or don't waste my time with it any more

@rnd I would say that the problem is not the existence of the convenient options but rather the system which creates and maintains those convenient options.

In a better world, our primary communication platforms would be managed by an organization whose mission was to educate and inform.

The fact that they are instead managed by organizations whose only goal is to take as much as they can from us, so they can grow forever like a cancer, is the real problem.

@GeofCox Liquid molten salt, is in its essence, very hot stuff.
