I'm thinking of getting an electric #bicycle and a seat for the back for my 2.5 year old daughter to sit in - and this #Rawbike 250E looks very appealing.

But what do the #cyclists of the fediverse think? Especially people who cycle with their kids on the bike. What's the verdict on this #elsykkel?

Welcome to another day in late-stage capitalism, when millionaires train computers to paint pictures and write poetry, while human beings do back-breaking work for them at minimum wage, and Billionaires tell the slaves to blame immigrants for their misfortune. Have a great day!

Oh, also, the weekend was my first time seeing furries out in the real world.

On a mountain.

I don’t understand the appeal; but I respect the added difficulty of topping a mountain whilst also wearing a full face mask and tail.

"Calling For the Moon" is the title-track of my 1st album. Originally an acoustic guitar thing, @tony_sherrard livened it up with his drums, bass and some knob-twiddling to give it a lilting 60s/70s vibe. I'll take credit for Japanese flute. https://soundcloud.com/thecruellestmonths/calling-the-moon
