The problem when N gets so screamy is that I lose the will to do shit like make dinner. (I'm not saying I won't make dinner - I'm not that kind of asshole parent - just that it becomes incredibly hard to do so.)

I feel for her - hormones on top of everything else are a thing - but I'm pretty much always the collateral damage.

@ashleyspencer @AutisticAdam @actuallyautistic That's a genuinely interesting interpretation difference (from allistic expectations). I must check in w my kids to see if they've picked this up.

Ugh, colds suck.

(But not as much as COVID. Which this probably isn't, going by the lack of non-cold symptoms and two negative LFTs so far. Will keep testing, though.)

@cstross I had pretty much forgotten colds. They definitely suck.

@CynAq @AutisticAdam @actuallyautistic It's also a cultural issue. In some non-western cultures it is disrespectful to make eye-contact with your elders.

@CynAq @AutisticAdam @actuallyautistic Thank-you for that. That's a really good explanation.

Oh just... fuck it all and everything to hell.

Despite being cautious... Teen has tested positive for covid. Which means no surgery for them on Saturday (I can't imagine the doctor would okay surgery on someone who is positive with a virus, I would absolutely say I am not okay with that).

Now the scramble begins of what is the safest course of action forward.

I just... I tried to play like I was okay with it (the trip), but I knew this was gonna happen.

What COVID19 has taught us about the Zombie Apocalypse is that there will be zombie denialists, zombie virus infection parties, zombie conspiracy theorists, and politicians ruthlessly exploiting lies about zombies to kill off demographics who won't vote for themโ€”and when a vaccine against Z-virus is invented there will be zombie anti-vaxxers (some of them funded by the Kremlin for shits and giggles).

GinevraCat,
@GinevraCat@toot.community avatar

@cstross Yup. The most terrifying part of COVID was the general response to it. (For those of us who didn't suffer long term physical damage or loss).

@MsHearthWitch Is it good on characterization? Netflix is recommending it to me.

@fulelo@journa.host avatar

Meanwhile 's defence minister, Yoav Gallant, has said Israel will sever all ties with the Strip once its war with is over -- it would, as he put it, end its "responsibility" for life there.

The authorities say attacks have now killed more than 4100 people.

Over 1400 Israelis were killed in Hamas' unprecedented extremist attacks within Israel earlier this month

This is such a dangerous and tragic consequence of regional conflict. Especially when religious or cultural solidarity comes into play. Violence does not stay confined to its origin. โ˜น๏ธ @fulelo

I just realized that the Dutch view of Southern Dutch as dumb lazy hedonistic layabouts is because the south is catholic and that view is informed by a historical protestant/calvinist view of the catholic way of life and I'm pretty sure nobody has ever informed me of this before and now I'm wondering if anyone is actually aware of it at all

@eniko That's a really interesting observation!

So, my kid is away for a few days with some friends. They planned a covid cautious trip, driving there and getting an Airbnb.

The host cancelled on them a few hours before they were to check in. They are having a meltdown (don't blame them).

My grandmother (who is generally not well) has covid.

If you need me I'll be in the blanket cocoon, in the fetal position, crying.

Science can be beautiful as well as informative.

@arstechnica presents the winners of the Nikon Small World 2023 photo microscopy contest. The top prize went to a photo of the optic nerve head of a rodent, taken as part of diabetic retinopathy research.

Random Public Service Announcement: The #ActuallyAutistic hashtag means the author of the post containing that hashtag is an actually autistic person, as opposed to a relative, caregiver, or practitioner who is not autistic. It came about because autism-adjacent folks kept speaking over us, and we needed a way to identify when an autistic person was speaking for themself. The hashtag says nothing about whether someone has an official diagnosis, only about whether they identify as autistic. It is not correct for an allistic (non-autistic) person to use the #ActuallyAutistic hashtag to describe an autistic person - #autistic is a perfectly cromulent hashtag for that.
