Why do people find it so easy to believe in God, but humiliate and shame people who believe in life beyond our planet?

How do you make a tissue dance?

You put a little boogie in it.

Got my wife a Vespa for Mother’s Day. She’s been wanting one for a while. She keeps yelling how much fun it is while she’s riding. As a bonus, we’re also better prepared for the looming apocalypse.

This is Fenwicke. Or “Fenny Kruger,” as I like to call him, because he is unable to retract or control his claws. So his love is painful.

I’m not a big fan of cats. But he’s pretty cool. He likes to chill with me after everyone goes to bed. And he likes to play fetch with hairbands.

I love this photo from our yard. The tree yields a single pear. Every time. It’s wild.

@ClimateJenny it’s really old. It was here when we bought our house about 18 years ago.

@markwyner@mas.to avatar

In 2020, Swedish neuroscientists put 30 trans and 30 cis research subjects into a brain scanner and showed them pictures of their bodies. Then they showed them images where their body had been morphed to look more masculine or more feminine. The results support the natural order of gender identity.

@CStamp well, sure. But the point of this study is a catalyst in the right direction of refuting the bigoted belief that transgender identity is wrong, immoral, fake, a sickness, and whatever else is on the list. It’s not an absolute, but it is a positive finding.

@CStamp all good points. The bias of “more masculine” and “more feminine” are relevant here. I appreciate your perspective on that.

By the way, Jess’ work is some of my favorite. More here:

@Resister I honestly don’t know how y’all do it. If you care it must hurt as much as it feels good. I applaud the good you do in the world.

@estevez then you’d have to “carry that weight.” No one wants to be a “fool in the hill.” 😉

My wife and I made some homemade gourmet ramen. The broth is veggie-based with coconut cream.

It was so delicious it hurt. I overate and am eagerly awaiting breakfast time so I can have more. 😂

We learned how to make it from Yeung Man Cooking:

@ilovechoclates_ yeah, he’s great. I definitely recommend this one.

@cynthiastreef I’m pretty sure it is. We never fully follow recipes, modifying them based on our taste and other variables. We based this one off of his creamy ramen recipe. The coconut cream mixed with the veggie stock is one of the keys. Also, my wife makes his chili oil, which we use for lots of stuff.

@cynthiastreef it’s my pleasure.

I didn’t want to believe that my dad was stealing from his job as a traffic cop.

But when I got home, all the signs were there.

This is a sweet story that I never heard. Jimmy Carter hosted a jazz celebration at the White House. He requested that they play “Salt Peanuts.” Dizzy Gillespie agreed on the condition that Carter sing it. He did.

@ojars what do they do with that tax money? Are there citizen benefits for dog owners like medical care or dog parks or something?

@markwyner Should be basic information that's widely known. This world is extremely handicap unfriendly.

@Tooden @gdeihl yep. It takes dedication.

markwyner, (edited ) to accessibility
@markwyner@mas.to avatar

Every hashtag on every post on every platform should ALWAYS be pascal case (a.k.a. camel case). I made this to illustrate how screenreaders read hashtags depending on whether they are lowercase or pascal case.

It’s a small thing that all of us can do to build a more inclusive, accessible internet for all. Please take the time to use pascal case.

@EverydayMoggie that must be the specific app you’re using that’s forcing it. When I’m done typing my hashtag I tap the space bar and it ignores the autosuggestions. And I can achieve this in the various apps I use. Happy to troubleshoot with you since you’re trying. If you want to DM me we can talk through it.
