I always find it funny when music snobs say they don’t want any curation on streaming services because ‘I don’t need anyone to tell me what to listen to’. I have found some of the dopest tracks ever by checking out playlists and I’m a huge music head. I would even say more so because of streaming 🎧

@patrickworld If it's a human doing the curating, I agree 100%. If it's an alogrithm doing it, not so much.

So, if police departments sell their guns, what do they do with the guns they get from the gun drives that take them off the streets? Where do those guns go?

@StillIRise1963 Those guns get adopted by the Gun Fairy.

Made a quick stop at the carwash on Mother’s Day and—who cares about the new Bentleys and Porsches?—dragged poor Mom over to look at this Subaru SVX being serviced next door.

An oddball sports car from the ‘90s. Most notable for that side window design. Mom, astutely: ‘Wouldn’t that interfere with outward vision?’

A black 1990s Subaru SVX is a sports car with rear seat and a hatchback, from the side.

@ai6yr This seems so basic. I'm genuinely curious as to why the CDC functions with such inconsistent quality anymore.

Where do you live and how do you feel about it?

Obviously, don't tell me exactly where you live, no actual addresses please! You can be as vague as you like.

I live in Central Missouri in the U.S.

Pros:

This is an absolutely beautiful place, green rolling hills, lots of rivers, lakes, ponds, and natural springs, cool caves to explore.

Lots of farming here, so great access to quality fruits, vegetables, meat, eggs, and dairy.

It's relatively inexpensive to live here compared with other states, because it's a "flyover".

I'm close enough to three major cities, that it's an easy day trip, and I'm about halfway to anywhere in the U.S.

We have one of the best Conservation departments in the U.S. and this is one of the few things that is a bipartisan issue. Lots of awesome nature programs that are free or cheap, state parks, conservation areas, bird watching, hunting, boating, foraging available to everyone.

Cons:

Yeah, it's a big one, it is a RED STATE, while a lot of the cities are blue, there is a large rural population, that votes red. Abortion is not legal here. People often vote against their own self interest.

While I'm not against responsible gun ownership, lots of people aren't responsible, and people have access to guns that definitely should not.

We have very few employee protections here, while the cost of living is relatively low compared with other places, it's taken years to get to a $12 minimum wage, and it's still not enough.

@RickiTarr Humboldt County, California. 🌲🍄‍🟫🌊

Pros: loads of natural beauty, hiking trails, amazing growers (both weed and food kind), vibrant arts and music scene, community spirit, easy to be a wierdo

Cons: shitty healthcare, loads of tweekers and MAGAs, illegal grows, travelling here and leaving here not straightforward.

@skinnylatte@hachyderm.io avatar

I’m interested in a lot of transit activism in N America but I swear people would think you’re a total weeb if you talk about transit in places with good transit. Trying to imagine talking to people in Singapore or Hong Kong or Seoul about.. loving trains

I think they would back tf away from me and run away.

Like my friend always says ‘I don’t want to be a transit fan. I just want great transit’

HumToTable,
@HumToTable@sfba.social avatar

@skinnylatte The rural piece of the transit puzzle in the US is important. There are vast parts of the country where "transit" means getting in your car or truck to drive the miles to town because that's the only option.

Struggling to enjoy social media and media in general these days. My only issue with the Gaza protests is that we even got to the point where they were necessary. Beyond disappointing how badly Biden's blown it. I'll still vote for him, but grudgingly. My spidey sense tells me Trump will win. He's certainly not going to jail. I miss the fun parts of Mastodon, but it's impossible not to also consume the cold reality of the current "shituation."

I'll still check in here because there are so many lovely and interesting folks here. Also need my music fixes from @Defiance and @puffer and @etherdiver. Plus I need to check in on adorable Cookie with @skinnylatte and the return of Beet Bear with @richrollgardener
Still, going to spend these last months before the November shitshow focusing on the garden and drawing and fun stuff. I mean, look at all this potential!

WAIT! WAAAAAAAAIT!!!

so never paid Pecker back the $150,000 his company paid to McDougal? Trump actually stiffed the guy who conspired to hide his dirty laundry so he could become President?!?!

OMFG Trump didn't pay the man who kept notes of their criminal conspiracy to subvert the 2016 elections.
