I just wanna be filthy stinking rich and disappear into the forests of West Virginia making cartoons for the rest of my life, is that too much to ask??

Like I said - I have no reason to believe I’ve got it other than this cold, which is also going around right now. No fever, no headaches, nothing. Just congestion.

@thismightbeauser But, the Carnegie and Rockefeller and all those families, they used to do public works and stuff. They may have been hoarding the wealth, but not damn *all* of it. Their flash contest was at least servicing the greater good as a side effect of the ostentation. This new crop seems more about raw, bigly yuge numbers, and hoarding, like a dragon (or a priapism). But, again, this is all coming around to perception. . . .

@scribus I mean, there's Bill Gates and whatnot. On the other hand you get people like this guy, who think it's an okay idea to keep making electric cars at a moderately high risk of illness to his employees with no one to buy them. http://rainbowdash.net/url/875471
-
@thismightbeauser @scribus That is indeed the case, a lot of rich people have middle class cars and discrete houses and do their best to keep people from knowing how rich they are, due to the general sentiment of "wealth equals evil"
You can't blame them really, if the mob will hate you just for managing to make good decisions and earning your family big money. I'd probably do the same if I couldn't simply relocate to a fortified compound with a minefield around it. It makes no sense to feel empathy for a group that has none for you, for whom you'll always be the bad guy regardless of what you do or don't do, that openly talks about how good it'd be if you died.
The ones that show off are the sociopaths, politicians and entertainment industry guys, who by default are crooks as that whole industry is built on crime and debauchery.

So, no. I do not have goddamned nginx figured out, and no, the Pleroma 2.0 launch has not made this any less goddamned infuriating.
Sunday, 15-Mar-20 04:19:48 UTC from web-
@scribus The installation of Pleroma comes with an NGINX config file located at /opt/pleroma/installation/pleroma.nginx copy it to the NGINX sites-available directory, change your server names, then symbolically link it to the sites-enabled path
-
@oracle I had done that previously and it still wasn't working. The directions said to name it a certain thing, which was not the usual Nginx method of naming it the same as the URL is supposed to be. Might that have been my problem? The second time around, I did try modifying a default, instead of copying the provided one, so obviously that was the error, there. :p Thanks.
-
@thismightbeauser Well, my latest (balls-deep-in-failure) attempt is on Ubuntu 20.04, and nginx is 1.17.10 (Ubuntu)

My new financial strategy of “buying stocks just after Trump has a press conference, then selling just before he has his next on” is paying off so far
Friday, 20-Mar-20 23:42:11 UTC from web-
@thismightbeauser Especially since short term capital gains are taxed higher.
-
@thismightbeauser But I guess if you're concerned about that then you'd want to wait a year, idk
-
@thismightbeauser i don't pay taxes, is what the court summons i can now legally ignore because of coronavirus says

I’m beginning to consider the idea that maybe I have coronavirus but all it’s doing to me is giving me a cold. It’s been around 6-10 days since I was possibly exposed to it by an elderly customer who maybe got it in Arlington (never did figure out who it was and if they were even in the store), and I’ve been dealing with cold symptoms for a few days now. No fever yet, though, and my cough was exceptionally minor and is gone today. Hopefully if that’s the case I didn’t get anyone sick, I was careful to make sure I was sanitizing everything in my cough radius just in case.

@mrmattimation I thought the same until I had a fevre this morning. So now I’m self-quarantining.

IMO, the whole thing is a PR disaster waiting to happen, but that’s fine, I guess. The guy was put there to be the fall-guy when union negotiations broke down... then this happened.

@mrmattimation Jump on TOR and anonymously drop the scoop to either an intrepid young journalism major or a washed-out alcoholic local reporter and watch the lid kinda simmer and flop and ultimately probably the heat'll get turned down and nothing'll blow after all!!

My dad got carded at the grocery store on the way home from a night shift. He was too young to get in so early.

@scribus We’re just kind of telling people we’re gonna card them but our interim President was really mad about having to change anything about the way we operate so we were explicitly told during a very angry conference call that it’s all just for show and we’re not supposed to actually turn anyone away.

Which is especially infuriating because I'd been planning a move to Colorado for like, two years, but other stuff has set THAT back too.

All of my cartoons just start with jokes now. By which I mean they start with a joke on a page, and then I try to figure out how I can get TO that joke, narratively.

@mrmattimation Downer. I have a Seattle trip for Sage and Savant cancelled, too. :(
-
@scribus The biggest bummer is that I was planning to meet someone out there who I've known for like three years but have never met in person, she's in Colorado and I'm in Virginia and we both thought we were gonna get to finally meet each other at VidCon. Now we're both stuck where we are for the foreseeable future.

Yo @ceruleanspark, I just checked the Affiliates links and both are now completely dead. Fluttershy was bought by some Chinese thing and Bronies UK is just dead lol.

My grocery store is officially empty. We officially have nothing of value left to offer people. And yet, it’s still packed.

I'm sure you all want to know what Rainbow Dash Network is doing about Coronavirus. The answer is, much like McDonalds: "grapeing nothing".

@mrmattimation Ah. That explains a lot. Didn't know that.

@mrmattimation I believe those were both tax rebates at heart, though. This would be a step further.

@mrmattimation And that is super one of my favorites, I aspire to such heights of !caffeine consumption. Actually, I may have committed a couple such moments as a bus driver....

@scribus my favorite part of that press conference was that Fox News had a real-time DOW counter in the corner, so every time he said something dumb, you could watch the recession get worse in real time.

@mrmattimation Hey you're right, CBS had a ticker showing the measly growth of the day slow down every time I roll my eyes!

Social distancing is what you do when the weird kid starts drawing in his notebook in seventh grade math and the teacher’s yelling at him about it

Hey sorry Matt, I can’t go to the prom with you, there’s a coronavirus going around and I’m practicing social distancing.

“Social distancing” makes it sound like you’re being bullied and it’s your fault. It sounds like a nice way of referring to what women did to me in high school
