I was in a video meeting with a (nice) coworker. 10 minutes in he says "ok I tried to be cool about it, but what the fuck is going on with your watch"

"I'm really popular I know like four people, maybe even five soon if im lucky!"

*confused look*

" .... and they live inside my phone."

if a single autistic person worked at youtube there would be a repeat button on the player

big brothers / big sisters but for trans ppl who don't know how to do anything gender-specific

Sharing a YT account with my 8 year old daughter means I get a lot of recommended content about snakes and dolls, and she occasionally gets tricked into watching explanations of differently sized infinities or how dishwashers work.

If internalized, subconscious homophobia is why women have dated me in the past, my bullies were right all along: a girl would have to be crazy to date me.

(and of course they were right that i'm, like, super gay ~💕)

I'll be worried about AI taking over the world when a music service realizes I just listen to the same 18 songs over and over and over and wait she's listening to something else and nope it's just a sped up version.

I thought I was eating to drown my feelings but I think I was hungry

Some server admins have an even bigger god complex than the PHP bulletin boards of yesteryear, which I didn't even think possible.

My guess is, it's because their power is fairly impotent (ppl will just leave and get to keep all/most connections). Gotta double down and abuse the little power they have while they still have it. It's literally the exact same thing Musk is doing on Twitter, with the exact same "logic" behind it.

Reminds me of the hall monitors at my kid's elementary school, except children usually know they're being little shits.

Only grown-ups get this deluded by their biases.

Fairly certain a lot of these ENM dudes didn't have much say in the matter

Since I boycott netflix, I needed an alternative to "netflix and chill". I thought I had one but nobody wants to come over for "trauma and vape"

(a decent plex server too)

Lost power but my backup power is keeping my fiber internet and network running. I knew it would be able to power my network but wasn't sure if I'd get an upstream connection... surprisingly I do.

So yeah I can't cook or nothing but I got wifi

okay... took a deep breath and stopped myself from flippantly replying - to another engineer! - "did you know percent and percentile are different things?" and/or just linking to a google search

(i am not joking about this, or my pridefulness)

Dating apps get degraded a lot even though they have democratized casual sex.

Finally, u get a say in who murders you, and it's your fault a little bit

My recent work project is SQL and yesterday I spent a few hours trying to whip up a SQL query equivalent of two lines of python.

I don't think it's been 'downpour' the whole time

at some point recently they changed the spelling I'm pretty sure

I love that the product managers of Google Photos just have never had any bad memories.

Or do other people enjoy auto-created slideshows of their mom's funeral set to a jaunty tune?

And much love to the throwbacks of all my failed relationships. THANKS I DON'T THINK ABOUT THOSE ENOUGH DO ONE ABOUT MY ASS NEXT

I typically can't scroll older than a few hours on my home feed. I've tried the web and different clients.

Anyone know what's up with that?

Is it a known limitation, bug, or something else? I've tried with boosts and replies disabled but no luck.

I just want to read the toots people tooted... is that so wrong

I originally just thought it was funny that all my ex girlfriends have now had a bi fling before they got married but I don't think I had very normal relationships and also all 5 married the next person they dated and I bet it even felt like going back to dating guys

I provided these women an important service at a critical time in their lives, and in an approachable and less sexually confusing way. I'm awesome, and selfless, and should have dated more.
