It is now live! Currently looking for ideas for tiers and their names. What do y'all think?

I've checked the settings, and it's possible to:

- always expand toots with CW
- always show media tagged as sensitive media

It'll free you from clicking to expand every single post, which I believe is handy for a community centered around sexual content

Alrighty, since many people are fleeing to Twitter from Tumblr's purge, I created a new account there as well. I don't think I'll post as often there, it's just to follow some good people and perhaps share some of their content here (with proper references, of course)

Here it is: https://twitter.com/__urso__

One of my current pastimes has been searching for MtG commanders with interesting mechanics and/or themes, hopefully that are not played to death

I haven't seen Mairsil, the Pretender mentioned by my playgroup and I'm already thinking of the shenanigans of stashing a bunch of creatures and artifacts that give the commander protection from everything :)

I've been feeling kind of alone for awhile, and I coudn't put my finger on why. My new job is all in on this "mob programming all day" and, thoughts on productivity aside, it's been sapping all my energy to the point where I don't want to do anything else aside from sleep when I get home

I just bought Quiet, from Susan Cain, following recommendation from a friend

I always get a little wary when I see people who brag about implementing microservices first and foremost, but I'm not sure why. I guess one (valid) reason is cv signaling, but I always feel like we developers treat tech and arch more like personal stances than technical choices

@Bearprazolam hey man, long time no see. How are you doing?

*omg

I don't follow the Joe Rogan podcast but after I heard he had Brian Greene recently, I never searched so fast

aside from the content itself, which is amazing considering the guest, Greene's voice is so easy to my ears om

4, perhaps?

I thought my burnout days were past me and I would be able to enjoy coding again in my spare time. Tried that since the beginning of February and it hit my enthusiasm like a truck

seems like 2020 really is the year to find another hobby or find another hobby

oh no the new animal crossing looks so chill and fun. never played AC before but I played A LOT of stardew valley

my body is ready

Just tweaked my Emacs with a nice serif, monospaced font for creative writing :3

darkroom-mode works so well

Looking for a compiled language that isn't C or Haskell (the ones I have experience with) and isn't as "you-may-shoot-your-foot" like C or "monads and language extensions ahoy" like Haskell

I find Rust too complicated for what I want. Go is good, compilation is fast and cross-compiling is great... but damn does the lack of generics hurt sometimes

Why didn't anyone tell me that DuckDuckGo had a !-bang thingy for searching for MtG cards?

Gatherer is AWFUL, so I'm glad that whoever implemented this chose to use scryfall.com

I actually kind of think that the writers slipped on that one too, willingly or not. How do I enter an existence of eternal bliss with my whole being, when it includes all the things that at the same time identify me as human and also diminish every perfect thing I experience, because there's absolutely nothing to offset or compare that experience with?

I don't think we need eternal reward. Walking out of existence sounds merciful to me, and easier to grasp too

As I went through the process to question my beliefs, I too wondered about how cruel eternal damnation felt for a God that majorly had poor to downright malicious "representatives".

There was also the problem of eternal bliss, which was sth I could never fully grasp. At one point I too wondered if it wouldn't all get boring after a slice of eternity doing only amazing things, but that might be only my flawed perception of perfection muddling my concept of heaven
