@LaserScheme headsets made for use in call centers are often 1. cheap 2. very comfortable for long-term use 3. have very good quality mics
I got a sennheiser one with a 3 meter cable with a physical mute switch and the mic was 👌👌 and it was like $60

@badwrongfun I have some of this gum sitting on the kitchen room table

Cis & trans ppl relationships 

In the first few months after my wife came out to me I spent a lot of time being constantly asked “are you going to stay together” so much so that it made me doubt myself. “Success” stories of ppl staying together through a transition and especially when they are married are still elusive to find so I like to be as visible as possible about it. It’s been near enough four years now & watching her become the woman she wanted to be has been an honour.

the touchscreen doesn't respond at all even after hard reset
so I guess the screen assembly needs to be replaced :(
meanwhile I missed days at my day job to take my partner to the hospital and my translation job moved some of my titles to other months (after I had finished my involvement) meaning I'm only being paid this month for one of the three books I did in August

apple thing 

@Xkeeper love me some golden delicious
eating apples reminds me of an ex though so I don't do it often

Couple social reminders 

@Facet it's an ought-is issue
that you *ought* to be able to shape your internet experience however you want for any reason you want does not mean that temporarily unfollowing someone instead of muting so you can still see other people's retweets of them will not result in being blocked

Couple social reminders 

@Facet I've lost friendships because I unfollowed and the other party took offense

Some stuff for #mastoadmin re: my instance's fork: feature branches, yay! Merge these branches into your install if you want them.
github.com/TheInventrix/mastod

- local-only
Adds an additional privacy option of Local, which only sends the toot to the Local timeline and local followers.

- softfollow
Option to approve a follower without sending them locked toots. Instances without the feature fall back to rejecting the follower request.

- rp_tools
Currently just has roleplay-voice styling.

Hey everyone, especially #mastodev #mastoadmin and my Planeteers, I've got a request!

I recently 99% finished a Mastodon feature to allow follow requests at two different levels, giving follow requests three different options: Authorize, Semi-Authorize, and Reject.

I picked the "filter" icon from FontAwesome (see image for example) for lack of other suitable ideas, but if you have a better idea, please let me know!

(Code is here: github.com/TheInventrix/mastod - thread below for more details)

friendly reminder not to make jokes about killing other people's family members, I'm not sure why I even need to say that this is wrong

Just let lesbians do all the writing and character designs on your sexy girl fanservice game! I guarantee it will be better!

sui, discourse, meta 

Now that we're re-federated, once more, it's Suicide Prevention Day. What are you doing to prevent this horrific tragedy?

Please stop sharing KF content. Please stop believing KF content. Never take a callout post on face value. KF has only one goal and that is death.

So, okay. This needs to be said and understood:

KiwiFarms, Encyclopedia Dramatica, and 4chan are NOT reliable sources.

They're not.

Their entire reason for being is to manufacture reasons to ostracize people. They are, by any definition, hate machines.

You know the saying "trust but verify"? I am telling you: you can't trust these sources.

If you're going to attack and harass someone, find a better source than KiwiFarms, Encyclopedia Dramatica, and 4chan. Please.
