If you do not want people to respond to your thoughts, then why post them on social media, and if you must, say that you are just yelling into the void, which is perfectly fine, we all benefit from venting occasionally.

Don’t abuse people for engaging, that’s just… aside being rude, it is highly confusing to people.

I think I need an internal what would @lisamelton do filter, it would make life simpler.

Is @lisamelton okay? My timeline has worryingly few boosts, so I am getting concerned.

@johnzajac @donmelton can we please roll out massive amounts of nuclear, mass produced like ThorCon. I really do not want to live in the darkest timeline.

I got to mention @lisamelton in casual conversation at the dog park today, since a friend of mine claimed that Firefox was started by people at Google, so I got to info dump and mention that I happen to know the lady, who freed the world from inferior browsers, except him, since he uses Windows.

How does @lisamelton not have a Wikipedia page, instead she is relegated to a mention on Forstall’s page. She is the algorithm for Lisa’s sake!

Oppenheimer was such a wasted opportunity, it should have been a mini series. It cut too much stuff to not become one, which led to characters and massive acting talent going to complete waste.

In two hours, Nolan could have told the story of a brilliant man who saw a brave new world in his mind, the reckoned with it and his own legacy, by reducing the Manhattan Project to simply saying ‘we all know what we did in secret and why’. Making it about Oppenheimer in a real way.

@ivory I wish context was shown for posts in notifications, when tapped, like they are in mentions.

It turns out that I was wrong, this was @lisamelton’s world after all and we just live in it, surrounded by boosts and enough transcoding to boil a small inland ocean.

My dog apparently decided to kill a bird, then proudly display that to my wife, just as she took her first bite of her dinner.

I have now been wearing this damned blood pressure cuff for 8 hours… and it’s okay, somewhat annoying, but not being allowed to talk my dog for a walk, that is going to invalidate these tests. She has decided that the best time to do something forbidden is timed with the beep for the machine to do a measurement.

Clever dog, but could she apply her genius a little..nicer?

I am tired of people saying that your vote doesn’t matter unless you live in one of five states.

It matters, for one, there is more at stake than the presidential election, such as your local and state government, which is extremely important and guess what, there your vote is the only one that matters and it is counted, so get off your ass, register to vote and go to the polls, no excuses.

@Skepticat, good news… well news, I have finally managed to get a medical problem for which caffeine is a legitimate therapy.

Spontaneous intracranial hypotension

Granted, it does feel like literally having a horrible hangover and it has been going on for over a year, but let’s focus on caffeine being the answer… well part of it.

Oh dark goddess, I worship thee!

It is Christmas Day, so I hope @lisamelton woke up with a @rooster style chest and that @danirabbit found a hot catgirl under the router.

Let’s just be clear, this man is advocating killing upwards of 21% of the population and that is only accounting for atheists.

This is genocide being planned, they will kill us, they will kill the Jews, the Muslims, trans and other LGBTQ+ citizens.

They will kill until they are once again a majority and that must never happen.

As we all await SpaceX’s next catastrophic Starship explosion, let’s all take a moment to think about the nature which will be affected by their lacking safety procedures.

I think I will trust @Skepticat with my medical care, she seems to be on the level… also I predict coffee to feature on prescriptions.

I would actually really like it if @ivory had a subscription tier where they charged me double, while giving that money to the Mastodon development team and to running servers.

I did a thing, and as a result @danirabbit might now know where I live, but that’s okay, she seems trustworthy.

@ivory I have noticed that the quote/boost list aren’t always ordered the same way, is this intentional?

This is pretty much how I see @Skepticat starting her morning.
