If you see a black person cross your stream, you better follow them goddamnit. It’s white as rice in here.

#Jack endorsed a man that #Elon hosted on #Twitter. How much more obvious does it have to be?!

Jack is a fascist too. Start behaving and treating him accordingly.

Question EVERYTHING about #Bluesky.

Elon = Twitter
Jack = Bluesky

people like to say "money can't buy happiness"

but 90% of my problems would instantly evaporate if i just didn't have to worry about cash all the goddamn time

if so much of the world wasn't gated behind fucking dollars

happiness can't be bought, but the prerequisites for it can -- food, shelter, warmth... stability, pretty much

it's a lot easier to find happiness when you're not consistently stressed out about finances

Colgate-Palmolive, which controls 40% of the toothpaste market, has increased prices 12% even as volume declined by 2%. As a result, the company's profits have soared.

Greed and market concentration are driving inflation, not workers demanding better wages and benefits.

"We just learned this one thing about X and it'll blow your mind."

No, no it won't.

I love that I can share science or history or even *soil* ⬆️ on #Mastodon & every comment is thoughtful, polite & interesting.

It’s a nice reminder that despite what I became accustomed to elsewhere, social media can still be interesting & fun. Long live the #fediverse🖖 /2

I wish the world could get as excited about heat pumps as they are when the fruit company has announcements about new stuff

I keep meaning to do some more of these. This Teddy Bear ballet dancer is a favorite I did last year.

She cannot stop her rampage once the bloodlust takes hold, only run out of things to kill

Can a loud sudden noise jar my #ActuallyAutistic comrades into an instant meltdown?

If so, you are not alone.

@clouddweller @actuallyautistic @disabilityjustice @Shadedlady @homelessjun @disability that’s always fun. Another hack that I just discovered I use on social media. It never pays to argue with trolls because they do not care about facts. But all you have to do is demand receipts. Demand proof that what they say is true and watch EVERYONE ELSE pile on the troll. Saves so much sealioning arguments. Most of them can’t provide proof. Or (and this is fun) they post links that disprove their point. And if they manage to post something, I’m usually able to discredit the source because of the nature of my work.

@evan Qualified no, I don't trust a computer to update properly unless I'm staring at it. In my experience, whenever a computer updates and I'm not looking at it, it gets into a strange state I can't recover from because I don't know how it happened.

That said, if other people want their computers to update while they aren't paying attention, it's fine if that's an option for them, as long as I still have the option to watch mine.

Has anyone tried turning the U.S. off and then back on again?
