Don't Repeat Yourself (DRY) has got to be the most harmful cognitohazards we've managed to perpetuate in the realm of engineering software 🫠

I'll never forget jankily hacking together FurryList weeks before the support for feeds became official, constantly checking for the latest news from BlueSky on when feed support would be released in the client. Only for it to happen minutes before I got on a flight with no wifi!

🎉 Crazy to think it's now been over a year since FurryList launched. It's been amazing seeing how much the furry community has grown here since the site launched - and a welcome escape from other places... Here's to another year! What are you most looking forward to? ~ @ottr.sh

advice for labeller runners: moderation is COMPOSABLE, you don't need to run a service that figures out EVERYTHING for EVERYONE or you will lose your mind you don't need to fix everything for every minority group all at once if you know furries or trans people, stick to that

also pls look at this dog statue that @newton.dog got for me and @kep.dog that he literally just found abandoned by the side of the road - posed here for comedic effect

wah hello skyline sorry I got a new phone and forgot to like, log back into all my accounts 🫡🫡

What piece(s) of media were the most influential on you? — Tampopo changed my view of art. So did "it's such a beautiful day" by don hertzfeldt Both of those feel like important movi… retrospring.net/@RoSphix/a/1...

Oh~ The other news I forgot to share last week is that I got promoted! Massive confidence boost and feeling way less imposter syndrome - even though I’ve been here two years!

It's so over
