but im being a responsible mom and hoarding some child support money despite my personal feelings and the fact that talking to my coparent is like pulling teeth and she hasnt given me any meaningful communication besides "sorry i havent responded, stress- also do you have money for us?" in months (yes part of my travel plans for van life are going back east in the spring and being a part of my kid's life whether she likes it or not)

(regarding the storage modules im excited to document everything once i finish moving out of here, the whole liveaboard setup has gotten a lot more refined since i started camping in the G wagon at the start of 2025)
ugh i cleared out a bunch of stuff from the house and while i was at the thrift store i picked up a couple nice bags (a canvas duffel and a backpack) to upgrade the storage modules that were a bit too limiting tomorrow i clean the bathroom and kitchen really well but tonight! blade or die!!

@ObsidianUrbex so awesome! glad you're making your dreams come true! looking forward to seeing how you transform the place. i feel you on the mix of giddy excitement and reluctant workhorse energy, i am in a similar dichotomy rn emptying my house as i gear up for a long overdue van life era

@Ashedryden yeah i mean i worked my ass off to pay my rent this year but at the start of the year when i had just quit WEX and living off savings? i did some of my best work and built dollctl (yes i started it before i quit but the bulk of the work was done after) then when i started to run out of money my quality of work and ability to focus dropped dramatically

@desea @yassie_j unfathomable depths that we are still coming to grips with, how would anyone else understand? we rest in that absurdity... reminds me of a lyric of a song i have been singing lately: i swallow
broken glass and poisoned waters
still, i nourish and grow
who am i?
that can carry all this?
who am i?
that can suffice this?

i have to say the prospects of a) not having that much stuff to begin with and b) owning my home visa vis my vehicle are very exciting for someone who absolutely hates the process of clearing out a rental
9 days left before the lease is up - have a schedule for taking advantage of days off work to do the really annoying stuff... it feels like i JUST did this... the past year went by so fast T-T

@brettm i created the repo for honk and its deps primarily to revendor to ensure it can still be built from source but at some point i probably will go in and try to improve interop and UX and stuff (one thing that i have been thinking about lately is the need to manually 'unplug' unresponsive instances)RE: https://cafe.nilfm.cc/u/nilix/h/8Q928sc6DF22T4W3H2

JCVI-syn3A, a synthetic cell with 493 genes (452 protein-coding; 41 RNA), is the simplest free living organism known. ~80% of the protein-coding genes are functionally annotated, but we still don’t know what the other 20% do (except that removing any of them makes it unviable). There’s also a whole-cell kinetic model for ~98% of the enzymatic reactions in the cell. This is the real frontier of artificial life, not masses of linear algebra over a text model…

"The season of the Smoke Moon drifts from Tiliard’s roots upward. It rises from the shores of the Catoptric, the pipework of rhizomes and limestone where falling pebbles spark like flint in the reeds. Green witch-flames burp to life on the water’s surface, both guideposts and hazards to passing riverboats. A blanket of black cloud rolls in from the fields as farmers light the harvest’s detritus." -- The Works of Vermin

and also there is the piece about how for disaster and weather forecasting and stiff like analytical chemistry there is a legit gap in methods and knowledge that is being filled. with 99% of the cases of mainstream genAI we are not filling a gap- we are creating one by robbing people of their livelihoods and capacity for critical thought and skill acquisition

yesterday a fellow ex tech worker came up to me at the cafe while i was working on ryudov2 and we started chatting, and we shared this kind of feeling that you have to identify oppression in your life directly and be open enough to the risks to say "fuck no" i had the additional observation that as someone who had a meteoric rise in my career, transitioned, and then went into poverty while the world falls apart around me, i have a very different relationship to risk, truth, and fulfillment than most, and for example working at the co op i see people of all ages just accepting the oppression of these low wages and gruelling hours while management gets a living wage and plenty of time off and nobody even THINKS to hold the board accountable- i suggested a strike one time and they thought i was joking...RE: https://kolektiva.social/@nogodsnomasters/117114761590039464
