Congo African Gray. Very smart, very demanding, very destructive if not kept entertained, but also a treat to be around, and a devilish handful. She learned to bark and likes to set the dogs off. She waits till they're napping, then barks to make them scramble to the door and join in. Then she laughs at them (with my laugh, no less)
@ScottSoCal absolutely!
Itβs a super-relaxed Boxing Day here, and Daisy wants her nose booped. #dogsofmastodon #greyhounds
The results from yesterdayβs #eggnog poll are in! Thank you all for humoring me. While a fair share of those who participated agree with me that eggnog is delicious (42%*), 1 in 4 participants have never even had eggnog! In the original thread we had some great discussions around eggnog additions, homemade vs store-bought, and the acceptable quantity to imbibe. Eggnog is a truly divisive holiday drink. *n=161

Oh, Kari. Someone should have told you - the internet is forever. Sure, delete the text. It's going to live on, in screengrabs.
It's pretty remarkable how much Elon's Twitter takeover is a textbook fascist takeover: leftists immediately purged, censorship regime imposed behind the scenes, secret police rooting out enemies, right wing terrorism supported by the state, etc and how uncannily similar the mainstream liberal response of pretending nothing is wrong is, even with *very low* costs of walking out the door and refusing to collaborate.

18% of your pool is partially wrong, 14% is completely wrong, and 25% aren't aware of how deprived they are.
It would be incredible to reach 100,000 followers of the Memorial here at Mastodon this year.
Don't you think?
Finally. These traitorous βheroesβ have to go.

She needs to be primaried.
Grocery runs, hotel pool specifications, weekly massages, Wi-Fi repairs, and an abundance of room-temperature water are just some of the demands placed on Arizona Senator Krysten Sinemaβs staffers. https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/sinema-staffers-grocery-shopping-internal-memo-reveals-1234652109/
@marcelias Good. These election denying nutjobs need to be forced to pay for their garbage lawsuits - without consequences, there's zero incentive for them to stop doing it
So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
