So hey just a request:

if I say something that you know to be untrue or that contradicted something else I said previously, please let me know so that I can reconcile things and disentangle things that are true from things I only wish were true.

I don't want to be an unreliable narrator, and I don't want to fall into some very bad habits and patterns that have been ingrained to me all my life.

I want to be better than that.

Thanks. 💜

Oops I lost my old #introductions post in the last instance fandango but enough has changed I'd might as well make a new one right?

Hi, I'm fluffy! I'm a software engineer by day (working at an HIV research lab as of December, 2018) and in my spare time I make music, games, comics, and bad decisions.

See my bio for various links!

Also http://beesbuzz.biz/about for a somewhat fuller bio I guess.

I finally got around to doing my taxes. Even with my ridiculously complicated 2018 tax situation Credit Karma Tax was pretty easy, and completely free, thank fuck. https://www.creditkarma.com/tax

Okay people are sliding into my mentions with the same things over and over. To summarize the responses I’d give them:

1. Safari doesn’t allow ad blockers to do certain things so they can’t prevent video ads directly

2. I use a Safari for specific accessibility reasons that you don’t deserve an explanation for and I’m not going to switch to Firefox or chrome

3. I was stoned when I came across this hole and shared it because it was funny to me

I am now muting further notifications.

@nolan I got a weird image notification from @gggnnnnn@toot.cafe which then prompty disappeared and the user seems to no longer exist, any idea what's up with that?

IMPORTANT DISCOVERY: Safari's Touch Bar video controls ignore whether fast forward/rewind are allowed in an HTML 5 video. Which means on a MacBook you can use it to skip forced ads on YouTube!
