  Yaarrrr. Happy #InternationalTalkLikeAPirate day to all ye landlubbers. Yesterday, I was telling a coworker about it, and she asked how I could possibly know that. I was like, "how do you NOT?"

  Yay. I got a cheap wand style metal detector and was able to find my wife's ring. Well worth the $30. Now I need to superglue the rings on her finger.

  Dog's Diary - August 10, 2026 It has been nearly a week since father has taken me on the longest pee break ever. While I do enjoy owning trees in multiple states, he insists on treating me like an animal and forcing me to live off of this swill. It seems no matter how lovingly I look at him or how good my sit is, he refuses to give me filet mignon. I'd even suffer through some pulled pork. But no. I must subsist on wet dog food. It is clear that father no longer loves me. My only opti...

  I seriously hate bike and scooter riders in #Seattle. They're all assholes. They left them by the traffic circle, this time.

  Oh my gawd. Upgrading #Immich from 2 to 3 in #docker via #Dockhand is an absolute fucking nightmare. The main problem is that Dockhand stores compose files within the Dockhand container itself. But you can also have it manage stacks you made elsewhere, like with #Portainer. Unless you delete portainer, which also deleted the compose files. Then your stacks are in this limbo state where everything works, but you can't edit anything. I tried to create a new local compose file and load it i...

  I think the cat walked across my face at some point last night. It could have been a dream, though.

  I met a new puppy friend, yesterday, named Charlie. He was a very good boy. He ran up to me and instantly rolled over to get belly rubs. And then I asked if I could give him treats and as soon as I said that word, he did a good sit.

  You know how Dear Leader loves to put his name on everything? I think it would be hilarious if, after he's out of power and in prison, progressives named every progressive act after him. A constitutional amendment granting trans people equal rights. The Donald Trump Trans Act. Granting citizenship to anyone who asks for it who doesn't have a criminal background. The Donald Trump Immigration Act. Burning Stephen Miller at the stake on TV. The Donald Trump Anti Hate Crime Act.

  I decided to run updates. It turns out, #Proxmox had like 60+ updates. Clearly, I need to do this more often. #selfhosting #homelab

  Well, my home made router flattening jig is working. Sort of. I had to cut some notches out of the sides to accommodate the router handles. I don't think it will cut all the way to the end of the table, but hopefully I can get the bulk of it flattened.

  Made some more ties. The two on the left are for the officiant at the wedding and the best man. The next two are for me. Those two are made from old Japanese kimono silk that I found at a gift shop on the Oregon Coast. Some of them are over a hundred years old. The third one from the left was a huge pain, because the fabric was crazy thick, and I didn't have enough for my normal pattern.

  I've been having back issues, because even though I have extra monitors, I don't use them. I just plugged them into an old Debian box and had them play the Matrix digital rain screensaver. So I'm always hunched over my laptop. I decided to actually use the monitors, and see if leaning back will help my posture and back pain. I got the mount today and spent all day moving and rearranging everything. The dock should be here tomorrow, so hopefully it works.

  I did a silly. My coworker had an empty wall. So I put up a painting. A very tiny painting.

  Yay. Got the dock and everything hooked up. It is quite temperamental. Just barely tapping on a cable will cause the video to cut out for a second. Everything is firmly in place. I wonder if the cable itself is bad. Oh well. I'll just have to be gentle. And deal with the cable management

  Omg. I'm now less than a month away from my wedding. I'm so excited. But I also want it to be over with so I can stop worrying about everything going smoothly

  You know what would be funny? If Trump ran for a third term, so Obama ran against him. I mean, fair is fair, right?

  Yesterday, I took my car to the dealer for an oil change. I got a text reminder a few days before. That makes sense to me. 5 minutes after I dropped the car off, I got a text asking if I wanted to sell the car and lease a new one. Then I got texts letting me know they started working on the car, a video of them explaining what they found, a text about them finishing the car. Today I got a text thanking me for bringing my car there. And another text asking to fill out a survey. Jesus fucking Chr...

  I used to hate people who dodged in and out of traffic, but it's really the only way to get anywhere in #Seattle, because 2/3 of you idiots have no fucking clue how to drive. I don't know if you're on quaaludes or what, but you don't know where you are or where you're going or how to get there. So you just casually meander aimlessly, backing everything up. Today, I was stuck 3 cars behind some fuckwit going 10 goddamned miles an hour in a 25, for like 4...
