and i don't mean in a mansplaining kind of way or "how do i do x in y" "use z instead"

i mean "how do i do x" "rando favourited your post"

like it's just non-sequiturs. i'm in a don hertzfeldt skit

social media is anything but and mastodon has not ever been and will not ever be better than twitter or any similar contrived microblogging platform for as long as it retains the favourite button

if you like a post where a person is talking about killing themselves that means that you like that that person wants to kill themselves, there is no other interpretation for the wording x has liked your post that i can infer in good faith and this is why i tell people not to like my negative posts unless they like that i'm in misery because if you want to convey anything else you have 26 letters and punctuation at your disposal

Maybe an animate inanimate as the talking PNG? A magic wand for magical girls who once thought they were boys? (And also not just for girls & boys?)

We’ve just incurred a $7,500 CAD bill to do radon mitigation and replace our broken sump pump, because we hate lung cancer and flooded basements.

The beauty of working in an office highly integrated with Microsoft products is consistency. You can write a document in desktop Microsoft Word 365 saved as Microsoft's DOCX format so that when you send it to a co-worker on Microsoft Teams and they click on it to open it in web Microsoft Word 365 you can consistently expect the formatting to be completely different.
