I quit Twitter a little over a year ago officially. Similarly I haven‘t used any of the other services like Facebook, LinkedIn, Mastodon, Slack, Skype or any of the others.

I simply post to my blog now via Micro.blog. Occasionally I respond to a post on Micro.blog. That‘s it. Other then that I live a life with the people around me. Family, friends, neighbors.

I don‘t miss a thing. Social media can be intoxicating and make you feel like you miss a ton if you don‘t constantly engage. This is a blatant lie you tell yourself. All you do is spinning your wheels while you could spend your time doing actually engaging or productive things.

I stumbled over Perplexity today and I must say I’m impressed. I think this will be my default search engine for quick things to look up.

Der Kerwe-Umzug in Geinsheim startet jetzt.

KunstFerien in der [kantine16] sind heute zu Ende gegangen. Die Kinder haben stolz ihre Kunstwerke präsentiert.

People that are inconsiderate with other people‘s time piss me off to no end!

My wife regularly makes appointments for new children/parents. About 30% just never show up. No excuse. No call. Nothing. And about 10% of those have the gall to call a few days later for a second appointment (still no excuses).

And this is in a field where there is a shortage of spots for the kids. How entitled must you be to search for a nanny for your kid—of which there are to few—and then not show up?

Go fuck yourselves!

After a 3 month (!!!) free trial of Strongbox Pro, today I paid the €80 for the lifetime Pro versions without batting an eyelid. Such great value compared to other more prominent password apps. I can highly recommend it.

Im [kantine16] in der Nähe vom Bahnhof Neustadt. Die Kinder haben hier fünf Tage lang „KunstFerien“. Ich bin mal gespannt was am Ende der Woche rauskommt.

What’s up with all these Patreon recommendations I get all of a sudden from all my creators?

Today was the first time my wife and my son were dressing my surgery wound. They both were really troopers. It’s not an easy a task since there is a large gaping hole in my upper arm they need to interact with. I’m not sure I could do it without them.

Watching Graveyards of Arkham a Call of Cthulhu story. Great cast, great keeper, great story.

Man getting your credit carded locked sucks. I have a ton of service badgering me right now about missing payments. And I missed out on a few things that I wanted to purchase at a discount. I really hope the new card arrives soon.

Still alive with a cut in my arm that stings like a mother. Fingers crossed it now heals without complications.

New shirt. Get it from Michael. His shirts are great quality.
