Hey Squirrel Fans, just working myself up to getting out of my pit , hey it’s allowed!
I’m mildly hung over & as a certain cheeky Pixy of my acquaintance has pointed out , I’m an ‘Old Squirrel’ now 😂
G’day Squirrel Fans, hope I find you bright eyed & bushy tailed!
Ok didn’t get to bed till late & then had a restless night so I’m afraid you’ll all have to amuse yourselves again (not like that ! BEHAVE! Sheesh! ) .
Have a the most wonderful #Wednesday & remember #RuleNo171: Don’t forget to put the right day on your SM posts !!
Fair warning, I'm watching The Girl I Like Forgot Her Glasses this season to 100% be a hater. Not because of the questionable and disorienting animation decisions either.
This show looks like a cute romance #anime on the surface. But I'm #disabled so unfortunately, I see a lot more here and plan to take notes.
This show is based on a #shounen property, so it's marketed at younger guys. So essentially, this is a romantic power fantasy of a disabled woman — Mei is essentially legally blind — where said woman is dependent on the man to get through a lot of basic life tasks. When you start seeing a lot of that, or have experienced that kind of thing in real life, it quickly becomes almost impossible to enjoy.
There's a thing that happens in a lot of shows in general where someone who is called everything but disabled is considered cute despite their "quirks" and the like too. Think Komi Can't Communicate if you've seen it. Now, imagine if that main character weren't a conventionally attractive girl. Would the show still be a success? In Komi's case, that's part of why so many students flock to her!
This kind of thing was brought up back when #Wednesday first hit #Netflix too. How the behaviors people said were iconic were the kinds of things a lot of autistic kids were bullied for in school. How they're only considered "cool" now because of the conventionally attractive lady doing them.
I've got a feeling I'm going to have a LOT of criticisms about this show so buckle up and get ready to have your ableist mindsets challenged! #TheGirlILikeForgotHerGlasses
Project WOOF is on hold today, following yesterday’s 7500 steps my spine went into meltdown & I had to hit the codeine. Consequently , because my codeine tolerance is quite high , so am I 😵💫🤪
I will come crashing down later, so make the most of it 😂
I'm having a real 1st world problem here. What color phone should I get? I know it's stupid but my OCD makes decisions hard. I've had black phones every time, my wife suggested I inject a little color into my life and get one of the bright options. She likes the light green but only because it matches the color of her old Fiat. I like the light blue.
What do you think there's a poll in the reply if you have time?
Ist bei jemand Aurora Store noch in Fdroid drin? Meines loggt sich nicht mehr ein und ist noch 4.4.2 - während es schon 4.4.3 gibt. Spricht was gegen das Herunterladen von den Entwicklern auf GitLab? Wird es dann zukünftig noch automatisch aktualisiert? - Wo sind eigentlich Issues auf GitLab?
Sky is grey & overcast , with intermittent cold rain, my least favourite type of weather , save for heavy rain - which I hate !
However we shall attempt to progress with Operation WOOF & get a walk in in a bit!
There may be pics, give the camera on the new phone a proper work out.
Today is my official "Mastoversary." Now this account I made in November 2022, but my first Mastodon account as made today two years ago on Dot Social.
In these two years, my social media experience has been better. I've had more direct conversations with folks about so many things. Learned about more new music. Kept connected about politics, without as much of the...wild anger, bitterness, and screaming angrily into the void.
Good morning friends, cronies and the Mastodon curious! 🌞 It's a mild 76°F (24°C) in St. Louis and will be around 83°F (28°C) by this afternoon. Luckily I have complete control of my office thermostat. 😉 I'm hoping for a slow day but lately those are in short supply, it seems everyone has a crisis order daily, the joys of leadership. 🤦
Have a wonderful Wednesday! It's time to slide down the backside of the hump into the weekend. 🐫
Happy #Wednesday Fedi friends! Lots going on #today - being interviewed by a ghost writer for an article, mom is in town (!!) and I’m updating the Ko-Fi shop.
#MorningAll & #TZAG

In other news , Sophie & Alice are now confirmed Nip addicts 🙄🤦♂️ 😂
What is stopping someone from turning every word in their post into a #hashtag ?
Do like the hashtag police show up and issue a citation? Do you get voted off the server Survivor style? Does an actual giant mastodon show up at your door?
