I grew up in #Canada, but it just didn't work out. I've been in the #Netherlands since 2018, and sometime in 2024, we plan to apply for citizenship.

Maybe we know each other from #LiveJournal some #Vancouver or #Toronto events. I've done #Music #Journalism, #Photography and #FineArts and accidentally "fell into" #IT, and then further into Financial IT.

@benroyce I thought for a second someone had legit boosted Nick here. That was terrifying.

Even if there was a sign that it was a screenshot, it would help - I've seen people draw a red line through screenshots to indicate it's not a live display, for example.

I'm relieved it wasn't Nick, but held my breath for a second.

@benroyce it's perfectly fine for me, I was just surprised not critiquing per se. I think a CW is the way to go, but the attached image is what I've seen on other networks before (not fedi).

Bower:

Justice Merchan starts off will the prosecution motion for contempt.

He tells Trump he's about to issue his ruling, in which he will again find Trump in contempt of court.

The last thing I want to do is put you in jail, Justice Merchan says to Trump. You are the former President of the United States and possibly the next President as well.

But "going forward," he continues, "this court will have to consider jail sanctions" if necessary.

@GottaLaff "will have to consider" is too soft to get through Trump's skull. It's going to have to be "this is the last time this court will sentence you to pennies for your contempt. Next time you will enjoy the facilities at Riker's"

@GottaLaff my first thought was that it sounds like (in the text, which is hard) he's a soft parent using weasel words like "might have to consider" with a petulant child.

I hope he really is able to follow through, but the idea of having to spend all day Wednesday or over a weekend in a Riker's dorm amuses me.

Thanks for ensuring the courtroom for those of us with less patience :D

Really wish I'd had another choice in voting for a president. Listening to the current presidents remarks about the legality of the pro-Palestine, anti-genocide student protests does not inspire me.

Did you get lost on your way to Twitter this morning? I think it's perfectly reasonable to have regret over having to pick from two different shitty options.

Unskippable intros in video games suck.

@atomicpoet how will we ever know how to move around or jump without a tutorial being a jerk.

I would love to see a game start off with "Have you ever played any game ever? To answer yes, press any button. To answer no, shout "HELP ME! into either your TV remote or your computer's mouse"

The EU is abandoning its Mastodon project.

I had thought the main way Mastodon could develop into a major social media was by attracting bodies who want to respect EU law and similar regulation. If even the EU institutions themselves don't prioritise it, then that's another nail in the coffin.
