Pretty much just confirms what I've always feared.
Google and the War for the Web.
In the end, despite all the progressive posturing, Google is no better than any other bunch of greedy fucks.
I'm not naieve. I knew this kind of stuff was going on under the surface. I just didn't want it to be true.
Well, time to look for alternatives. -
One Tired Bastard
Rain.
Real rain for the past two days. And with it, cooler weather. It feels like fall out there. I've been housesitting for geodesimagining for the past week. I stood outside, closed my eyes, and let the cool air and rain wash o'er me. So incredibly elemental. I need to do that more. I forget what the living world can feel like. And that's truly fucked.

Sis and I had a pretty productive meeting. Sometimes you need your sibling to remind you of certain things, and tonight she reminded me that I was always best when I was on my own. I think moving in with mom was a huge mistake the first time around. I had no motivation to really do anything, much less pay off my debt. It dulled my survival instinct ( Read more... ) -
This Weekend

Training: Day 1
Was a rousing success. Last night's mad scramble for documentation for my various background checks bore fruit. Score one for Mom, she found my GED certificate.
Today, the Danemobile should be fixed. I'll be a happier Viking to be sure.
Have a good one, LJ! -
Any Dreamwidth folk on here?
I'm over on Dreamwidth as erikthedane, so if any of you nice folks are over there as well, please hit me up. My reader is empty :(
Also, for the geekier folks, I recently joined Diaspora. It's still in Alpha stage, but I have invites if anyone would like one. First come, first served.
My bebe marina798 and Pete came out and picked me up for lunch. I'm a bit ( Read more... ) -
Google+, nymwars, and all kinds of shit.
I just put a short post up on my Posterous about the whole Google+ pseudonyms mess. Go read if you are so inclined.
I am in the 13th hour of a 25 hour shift here at the security guard gig, and my brain is tapioca. I get off at 7 pm tonight, but I'm back in at 7 am Sunday til 7 pm, then I have training for the new tech support gig at 7 am on Monday.

Running around all higgeldy piggeldy..
Today was about getting some digital ducks in a row.
I have a blog over on Posterous, and from there I can cross post to my Tumblr and Twitter. My LJ I'm going to keep for more personal posts.
Still no word from the new gig. I'm assuming they are waiting on the results of my drug screen and background checks.
This weekend is going to be a long haul ( Read more... ) -
Live from the infernal region
So, in case you are late joining us, your Dane has been through quite the adventure...
having said goodbye to the sunny climes of Florida, I came back to Nashville to sort out my head. Trust me when I say that if I haven't sorted out my head after 44 years, I sincerely doubt it would happen overnight. I started job hunting, but once again, was not ( Read more... )
