I write a lot. I run a lot. I dad a lot.

Ok, fine. But then there's the sounds of typing in the background, trying to, I guess, make the experience feel 'real' somehow? We don't need to do this.

Brining back needlessly cruel and inefficient means because of an imaginary sense that 'things were better when I was a boy'. It's dumb and selfish and for fucks sake we're literally trying to bring back firing squads.25 Apr 2026 15:45 +0000at://did:plc:w4msmrmlevrhkqhdrum62r7y/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkdf4v43ns22https://bsky.app/profile/grumpyjay.bsky.social/post/3mjx6njqqkc2qMaking my way through some old Palahniuk books and just finished 'Shock Induction'.
