You ever think about how unique sentences are? Every day, we are producing and consuming combinations of words that have quite possibly never been said in that order in the history of our language.
Sometimes, this fact seems a little more obvious than it might most of the time.

The article is about an interesting linguistic strategy to "dilute" the sweary language of some parrots at a wildlife park by adding other parrots.
Who, presumably, don't swear.
Yet?

(It is not lost on me that one of the original, sweary parrots and one of the new parrots are both called Eric. Good name!)
@margin xenia! And yes we agree more pictures!
Still have to... Write my own config file. Fine fine shouldn't be that difficult. But the right time to write it is probably not when I'm already aggravated by the noise!
I've tried to control them manually with fancontrol, but it doesn't seem to be able to autoconfig and I haven't tried to like... write a config file
for some reason for the last some while my laptop was just running its fans at a constant speed (they usually go hog at even the slightest temperature increase). Then I restarted and now they're back to going hog when the laptop isn't even that hot...
it's probably better for the laptop, but the noise drives me insane
No more lying. It's Aes Sedai rules from now on.
@spdrcstl this is so fckn spot on

homura is one of those /tttt/ trans girls who obsesses over running out of time (not getting on hrt before age 20) and has a questionable relationship to her guns collection. meanwhile madoka finds the internet too confusing so she basically never logs on except to post minions memes to her family on facebook
@davidrevoy yay thank you for drawing it and making it free. I was very tickled to find it in Wikimedia.

I found a little gem of a movie, a scifi film from 1960 created by an East-German/Polish collaboration. It's called "Der schweigende Stern" (The Silent Star) and the only actor I know in it is Yoko Tani.
It suffers from much of the typical shortcomings of scifi of that era but there is a lot of good in it as well, and I enjoyed watching it.

@zip whoa
so intrigued by the concept of a fourth person pronoun. we've been talking to chat a lot lately
but it's like, I've been building my social web on mastodon for a long while now and been able to mostly maintain it through several instance migrations
I'm not starting from scratch here
I'm currently mostly active here and on cohost and ocassionally bluesky
here I definitely get the most engagement, maybe cause this account is so old (also cause y'all are cool)
