let it leave me like a long breath

in other news the monsterpit pixelfed instance (monsterpit.gallery) went down and got corrupted and the mod is like "this was too annoying to admin anyway" so now all those image links in the prior gamedev posts are gone forever

i mean i still have the images and could upload them elsewhere later, but that's not gonna happen for a while.

sigh things on the fediverse do not last long. or like even in the year-or-so that i've been using mastodon there have been a few high-profile instance shutdowns and it seems like everything is even more transient than usual.

i really need to get back onto working on my own activitypub server so i can have a permanent place to post things.
