Big day for the move. Confirming big parts of it with messages and payments and so on. The best news: I can travel with the kitties to help keep them calm during the 3-hour drive. 🤞
I have a Mac now.
It is 11 years-old.
My 2016-HP Windows PC fails in comparison.
… touché, Mac nerds.
Brand new part of @TIL is prepared and ready to go 😎
Every single time I think “bah I don’t want a new phone I’m all anti-digital addiction” I then immediately come across a reminder of just how good these devices are as video cameras.
For my life, that’s where the real value can be found.
I now have an inkling of life with only a phone for a computer.
How anybody lives in this hell I’ll never know.
I have been stunned by the outpouring of support from the Micro.blog community, having asked for donations to help my family survive the next month.
I will say more but for now: thank you all so much, you’re amazing. ❤️
Donations remain open; I’ll now stop posting reminders.
A last message about my request for donations:
Yesterday I posted a Plea For Help. My wife and I are struggling to make ends meet and in the past 24 hours the response has been amazing. I struggle to find the words to express my gratitude. 🙏
