3 of my beloved family members died during uprisings. We will NEVER FORGET.

@msquebanh Oh gah, it's that day.... :blobcat: I missed it yesterday. I remember it, I argued with my dad about it and nearly got kicked out of the house. My parents were so brain washed.

@msquebanh Perhaps they were afraid.

The 'm' key on my newish keyboard has stopped functioning. Now I get to use the clipboard to hold one character for intermittent use while typing! 🙈

Also shift+y, but there's only one clipboard, so 🤷🏽‍♂️

So Bruce is going with the "it wasn't rape-rape defence"? Really?

Every morning I ask Pete “Nut?” And I split a cashew into two and hand him one half while I eat the other 😍 Here he is with the cashew in his beak, waving hello!

Went to a picnic with friends at the wetlands. Bbq’ed some noodles and ate onigiri 🍙 Beautiful but bitingly cold

People cooking on a picnic bbq hot plate. With chopsticks!!!

I know standards in public life have slipped dreadfully since the World Trade Centre attacks, but I am genuinely utterly shocked at the temper tantrum being thrown by senior members of the American congress over Trump’s conviction, and them laying the entire blame on Biden. Have things degraded so much that they can assume most of the public won’t care about them doing this? Or do they really think no one could think less of them for this disgusting, amoral stance?

Fury,
@Fury@mastodon.au avatar

@anathema_device This all started before the WTC attacks. Remember John Howard and the children overboard incident? No one cared and he got voted in! It started in the 70s when neo-liberalists came into public view. Negative Gearing against the Dole Bludgers. Don't get me started 😂

Hey this wasn’t just any account it was the account of a major superannuation (pension) fund in Australia. Suggest corporate folks read this carefully!

1 google employee fat finger was apparently able to delete not just an instance but the entire corporate customer account including backups without any confirmations or other controls! 🙀

It’s an egregious error of information security & design on Google’s part should never have been possible on a production system.

@kcarruthers 😬 that’s not a bug. It was admin error.

@kcarruthers Its not like they're the biggest manager of information on the interwebs? 🤷‍♀️ Surely this sort of error would have been designed out of the system, even we have pop ups on the user end!

@kcarruthers I'm not saying they're the best or even competent, but they are pretty big and mums and dads use them without thought.

Everybody switch browsers to Firefox. Google is doing some shitty-ass stuff with Chrome that will FORCE their ads onto your eyeballs, and if you don't go along, they won't LET you use Chrome. Good. Tell them to go fuck themselves. Chrome is a crappy-assed browser, and not all the "Don't be Evil" policies in the world will make me happy with turning over all my data to Google muthafuckas for sale or rent.

@thepoliticalcat What about Vivaldi? They’re chromium. Not sure what that means though

@viq I have learnt more about ads and web requests and ad blocking than I bargained for this morning! And all before breakfast! All good to know 🤩 thank you Viq! @Snowshadow @thepoliticalcat

Motorcycle test today. It’s very wet. I think I’m going to be soaked by the end of it!!!

I PASSED my motorcycle test 🥰 and did not get soaked, although I got blown around the road a bit. We had very strong gusts.

my heart goes out to everyone in Delhi, especially the workers and street vendors, children and elderly, the many without AC. Water scarcity and rationing; overflowing morgues in Rajasthan.

I am always in a dilemma. I have this natural wavy hair that is great for long lengths (and where people pay a lot for!), but I always end up trying it up or cutting it short cos it's so hot in Malaysia 😭

Also I really thank my white hair for growing so tastefully in a lock. I dyed my hair in such a way that my white hair becomes a highlight 😆

@liztai I hope my greys behave themselves as gracefully as yours!
