"When President Richard M. Nixon launched America’s first war on drugs 51 years ago, annual overdose deaths stood at 6,771. The agency continues to count the death toll for 2021 — in a provisional tally seven months ago, it calculated the overall number of drug overdoses at 107,622." https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/interactive/2022/dea-fentanyl-failure/?itid=hp-top-table-main_p001_f001

What Twitter Does to Our Sense of Time https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/08/opinion/twitter-odell-time.html

I am submitting this post from the Mastodon API for my instance.

New booties!!!

I shaved my beard while having covid fever this week. My wife and dog keep staring at me.

I was in middle of JS digital signing of AWS headers the moment Covid fever hit me this week. I put computer down. Then all my feverish dreams were crypto hashing driven. Couldn't get into high school locker without MD5. My first wife left me cause of wrong signature. Finishing.

Fully vaccinated and after 2.5 years of evading, covid finally got to me this week -- it is no joke. Took me down for 3 solid days. Just now picking head up.

Had my first viral moment on Mastodon last night. Gained a few followers. Images are Mastodon vs Twitter.

Where do you feel invisible?

Didn't we train for this our entire childhood?

Getting to hang with my little brother for first time since Covid.

You know what is better than Mastodon or Twitter? Outside!! Bye!!

Three types of people in the Twitter to Mastodon migration 1) There is nobody there, 2) My people aren't there, and 3) Very few people are there! I can build whatever I want!

I feel like we've entered a technical diagram "renaissance". I see some tech influencers who only speak in diagrams, and so many interesting ones emerge.
