  • yep bullshit holidays.

    I’m a dad and I love spending time with my kids. I absolutely don’t want them to ever feel obligated to hang out with me or buy me a card or present or anything because of some bullshit holiday.

    My wife is on all the normal social media, insta, Facebook and such, and has such high expectations for mothers day because it seems to have become some sort of requirement to make a post bragging about what your family did for you on mother’s day.

    I hate it all so much.

    I spend time with the people I love and I frequently tell them how much I love them and do things to demonstrate it too.

    mother’s day, father’s day, valentine’s day and Christmas gift giving expectations can all go fuck right off.

    On the roof of the house in the angled portion where 2 downward slopes come together.

    My parents used to wake me up at 4:30 in the morning to take a cold shower and then spend the next 4 hours doing religious worship. The only time I could read “Horrible secular books” like Mutiny on the Bounty, the three musketeers, and the man in the iron mask was late at night after everyone went to bed. I would stay up till 2:30-3:00am sometimes reading and I knew waking up at 4:30 was just not gonna happen.

    Yeah, I got in a bunch of trouble when I came out of my hiding spot the next morning, but sometimes it was worth it.





  • diff -y -W 200 file1 file2

    Shows a side by side diff of 2 files with enough column width to see most of what I need usually.

    I have actually aliased this command as diffy

    ctrl-r

    searching bash history

    du -sh * | sort -h

    shows size of all files and dirs in the current dir and sorts them in ascending order so you can easily see the largest files or dirt ant the end of the list

    ls -ltr

    Shows the most recently modified files at the end of the listing.
