Listen, if you’re not happy single, you won’t be happy in a relationship either, happiness comes from picking a new hobby and then buying all the things to start that hobby then finding the perfect little storage container for those things and then putting that storage container in the spare room

you should feel HORRIBLE if you use doordash or ubereats. if you use these meal delivery services you are a MONSTER who should be in a CAGE. instead of WASTING ALL THAT MONEY ON DELIVERY you should use my factor75 CODE at CHECKOUT for up to $150 off and free breakfast for a year

Ok I know this out there, but a time traveler from the future left this book behind. Basically Biff with the sports almanac, except it’s a world history textbook from 2094 about the era we’re living through. Surreal. Not in a fun way. frankramblings.com/blog/2026/03...

Found: A History Textbook From 2094

The most unsettling part of finding a U.S. history textbook from 2094 would be seeing our current chaos explained with the clarity of hindsight.

I use Mastodon and Bluesky, but I’ve never loved that the people I follow are split across different apps. So I decided to try building my first iOS app to bring both of my feeds together.

A screenshot of a mobile social media feed with a mix of Mastodon and Bluesky content, focusing on two main posts.

At the top, the app interface shows a "Unified" timeline view with a notification button indicating "14 new posts."

The first is a Mastodon post is by Jerry (@jerry@infosec.exchange). His profile picture is an alpaca wearing a blue hat. The post text reads: "I feel like somehow we need to make BGP more resilient by using DNS. 🤔"

The second post is a Bluesky "boost" (repost) from Jerry Chen, originally by Mara Wilson (@marawilson.bsky.social). Her profile picture is a headshot of the actress Mara Wilson. The post text reads: "The other night I dreamed that there was something like the Kardashev scale to see how advanced a civilization was but instead of measuring how much energy they had harnessed it was whether or not they had yet created SpongeBob"

The bottom of the screen shows a navigation bar with icons for Home, Notifications, Messages, Search, and Profile.
