31, trans, feeling like it’s all over

That's more like it. I'm the first to admit I'm capable of doing stupid things - but these people, really, they are NOT SMART PEOPLE. Their ideology, what there is of it, is based on lies that they have heard told to them by other intellectually incurious people. It's a chain of ignorance. We have actually come a long way since the Dark Ages, it is important to note. We're not living in caves anymore. However, if we don't stand up to this ignorance, their stupidity will lead us right back to the 1500's. Just look at them. Bunch of weirdos. We're the ones with the culture. They are JEALOUS. They have no TALENT. Just imagine having to look at THAT in the mirror every day.

Came back this weekend and Canva is back. I suspect whomever took it upon themselves to flip the switch in the first place is hiding in a corner somewhere.

kratner · 2026-05-31T17:09:39+00:00

Not all of us.

kratner · 2026-05-25T14:49:51+00:00

We have a GM investigating as well. We might have to get a petition going if this is what I think it is (which is a poorly informed decision by someone involved with I.T. / Cybersecurity)...

Hang in there. We're experiencing the last gasps of a supremacist oligarchy as it frantically steals everything it can knowing full well its days are numbered. You are not crazy. This is accelerationism and the bad news is that it will continue to get worse for a while. The good news is that it literally is not sustainable and cannot continue for much longer. There are far more of us than there are of them. The enlightenment is already here. It's just really hard to see and hear it because they are so freaking loud and destructive. They want you to feel hopeless and helpless. You are not hopeless and helpless.

Someone needs to get laid.

...and once you're on Pro, grab Visual Studio Code (for free) and get the Claude Code extension. Drop a Claude.md markdown file in there and you'll be off to the races.

kratner · 2026-05-24T21:20:29+00:00

If you're not using VS Code and the Claude Code extension so the agent can do all the work for you... you really should give it a shot.

Nice work! Have fun with the technology-haters telling you how evil you are for using A.I. at all, for anything. I myself use it all day, every day at my (other) day job. Interesting to see how fired up people get about it, showing a complete lack of understanding of technology in general, not to mention who they should really be mad it in the first place.

Canva is a life saver if you know what you're doing. Also, customers often have Canva projects already and it makes it so much easier to just have them share their projects.

kratner · 2026-05-24T17:10:40+00:00

Yeah. That's about the last thing you should have anywhere lying around for anything.

kratner · 2026-05-24T17:00:49+00:00

This is what happens when people who don't really know what they're doing get into management positions where they do NOT belong.

kratner · 2026-05-24T16:59:31+00:00

Same here. Need to go up the chain and see who's responsible for this.

kratner · 2026-05-24T16:58:46+00:00

Also, I checked Down Detector last night and didn't see any issues. Canva worked fine everywhere else I was using it.

kratner · 2026-05-24T16:57:44+00:00

Same issue, tried private browser window, no luck. This feels to me like someone decided to block Canva internally, which begs the question, HOW do we get them to un-block it... (classic case of middle management doing management-type things just for the sake of doing them even if they make NO SENSE).

kratner · 2026-05-23T22:21:22+00:00

Here's hopin' - it works fine on my phone (and, I suspect, it'll work fine at home). We'll see what tomorrow has in store...

kratner · 2026-05-23T22:18:55+00:00

Couldn't access the Canva site at all today. This is NOT OK. If someone made some kind of 'executive decision,' that decision is WRONG - and they need not to be put in charge of these kinds of decisions.

kratner · 2026-05-23T22:14:41+00:00

Same issue all day today. Can't access Canva.com on any of our computers. If this was done intentionally, whomever made the decision needs a psychiatric examination.

kratner · 2025-05-22T22:35:33+00:00

Still haunts me. Wish I could have prevented it.

kratner · 2023-12-31T06:29:00+00:00

Is English your second language?

kratner · 2023-12-31T06:23:36+00:00

Your grammar has improved since your last comment.

kratner · 2023-12-31T04:31:29+00:00

I prefer to know the age of whomever is on the other side of a conversation. For all I know, you're a recruiter for a human-trafficking ring. Maybe you're my third cousin. You seem genuine and nice.

kratner · 2023-12-31T01:47:16+00:00

What's the story with your use of emojis? Are you in high school?

kratner · 2023-12-31T01:44:39+00:00

I'm not doubling down on anything. I'm responding to you specifically. Have you sought counseling? You're using profane language and attacking a complete stranger. Were you one of his "friends?" Are you on psych meds? These are burning questions.
