but seriously, imagine this: you place a raspberry pi in some soil. you take a few steps back, and then press enter on the keyboard of the handheld computer you’re carrying, executing a script on the pi you’ve ssh-ed into.

a few milliseconds later, you hear a crack as the pi splits in two, divided in half by the spawning of the red pine you’ve downloaded, which undergoes fifty years of growth in the span of less than a minute. the air around you gets noticeably warmer from the reaction.

I always name my pokémon with puns if at all possible.

However coming back to the games years later and loading up my save and wondering why I named them all the way I did can be a problem.

I am PRETTY sure I named a pokemon after Nik Kershaw for some reason and I can't remember who it was or why, or what game it was

Anybody got any tips for helping a kitty freak out less when she's not around me?

I'm hoping she'll chill out soon. It's been a week. She's not having any accidents so I'm sure during the night she's managing to go down and get food, water and use the litter tray but it's awkward and I think I'm gonna have to just shut her in the boot room whenever we're not at home just to be sure she's getting plenty of food and water, but I don't want to traumatise her. I also want to train her to use the catflap that Misty has p. much already mastered it seems.

Kami is...having trouble adjusting still. Misty used to be the nervous cat, but Misty is even calmer than before. Kami on the other hand is terrified of being left alone. if I go downstairs she yowls for me :( she has to practically be coaxed to go downstairs through the catflap (which I think needs to be left open for now) to go use the litter tray and get food and water in the boot room/outhouse thing connected to the house, and freaks if anybody but me wanders around nearby. :/

CWs, activism 

coz usually the people willing to put the most work in, even for the most urgent and disastrous political horrors... are multiply marginalised people.

multiply marginalised people are more likely to have ptsd and are at more risk of burnout and have more engagement with activism. AND less avenues of treatment available.

this idea that scaring fence-sitting liberals is worth more than helping seasoned activists work safely.. it's not realistic. people ignoring it aren't gonna help

CWs 

if you would like me to be able to read urgent things, please CW it so that not only can i read it, i can also responsibly boost it, and like, KEEP reading it if i have to stop

"i'm not CWing this because it's important to actually read it" translates to "i'm not CWing because any time this pops up anywhere in your life, nomatter how much you've read or done about it elsewhere, you should be forced to read it"

do u really think the people who don't open "urgent, USpol" are willing to act?

Dungeons & Dragons is in the business of selling fantasy. Not the stuff with the magic and monsters -- the part where you *actually believe* that you and several other likeminded adults will be able to coordinate your schedules on a regular basis.

hey remember general mibi is about people not using an ad blocker instead of relying on a data line between Z80<->RAM. console was pretty close to that part of this toot if you just softblock them they still had flappy bird on them after it boarded the passengers you weren't skirmishing, you were here and making this up.

Tbh this is my dream room. I'm glad I live here now. It looks a bit bare but it's lovely really and it'll get more lived in as time goes by.
