  • It’s not for them. Exactly.

    We don’t choose not to speak ill of the dead because we’re going to like offend the Dead or that we’re going to invoke some sort of spiritual curse on ourselves.

    We choose not to speak ill of the Dead so that the people who still miss them and love them and care for them won’t live in a world where the people that they care about are being slandered.

    It just saves everybody a whole lot of grief if you let the dead be the dead and move on.

    Sure, if you have a personal grudge against the person then that’s a different story but if you did not ever interact with that person and they are a bad person then just let them be dead and let them fuck off into non-existence.




  • Since I am hosting my own DVD rips on my jellyfin server, I got a let’s encrypt certificate and verified it with nginx server and a reverse proxy to duck DNS.

    The entire process was arcane, but I simply followed the steps from an online tutorial and it just worked.

    I spent more time and energy worrying over whether or not I was doing everything correct then I did actually implementing it, and I’ve never had any issues with it.















  • But that’s not the worst one for me. There was a time period where I didn’t actually sleep for about a week maybe two. However, I can’t be certain of how long it was because towards the end I started taking micronaps where I would be in the middle of a conversation and pause for like 20 seconds and it was obvious to other people that I had fallen asleep mid-sentence but then I would invariably wake back up again.

    When that spell finally broke, I had just finished work and I got that little signal that says I’m about to fall asleep and I was so excited.

    However, I was catching a ride with friends and I had to wait for them to bring me home and they had to go to the grocery store and I have vague staticky memories of fondling chicken breasts in an inappropriate manner and following behind other people way too close like the kind of close that would get me maced, and then running through the store telling every single person that I met that this bottle of beary bear brand syrup was my friend and he would protect us.

    Entertaining after the fact, not fun to go through, 1/10 do not recommend.
