What do you do when you're already depressed and the the world seems to be delivering a litany of awful shit on top of it?
In light of today's Node/Electron Conversation, it seems appropriate to remind everyone of the t-shirts I made last week.

I'm seeing a bunch of posts today about how hosting a mastodon admin doesn't cost a lot of money, and first I want to say that this is true; you can run an instance on $10-20/mo entirely reasonably.
But I don't want anyone to forget that there is a labor cost in running and maintaining an instance. It's not just pushing a button and feeding in some money, it's also monitoring your server and keeping it secure and handling reports and doing upgrades and all fo that.

Hey y'all. Thanks to @guerrillarain we were alerted to the fact that the Shop had encountered a bug and wasn't sending toots out into the fediverse. The fix was an emergency version upgrade.
So, hooray! We're on version 2.4.0.
Boo: I had to do ops work while at my dayjob.

Oh so very true
I want a series of Fred Rogers for President campaign ads. The Cabinet is sitting in the President's briefing room, outlining today's crises and concluding with a plea: "Mr. President, what do we do?" Everyone turns to the head of the table where an old TV and VCR turn on, and as the CRT warms up the VCR fast-forwards to a clip from "Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood" that covers exactly this situation. In one corner a general starts quietly weeping tears of joy, realizing that sharing is an option…
