@dansinker Wow, you must be very busy if you missed the news about Angela Chao, shipping conglomerate CEO and Mitch McConnell's sister-in-law, drowning in a Tesla because she couldn't get the doors open.

    @lzg Thank you. I so rarely get the opportunity to post people's pets back at them.

    Well, it seems like 2/3 of the way through Platinum III is the rank that I've settled at in . Now when I do really well one game, any gains are immediately lost in three games where I get shot in the first two minutes.

    My rhubarb seems to be doing something special. Not sure what yet. I am an optimist so this goes to , but it could be aliens.

    A distance shot of the same plant showing its new large ruffly heart-shaped leaves. Only the stems are safe to eat. They are intensely sour until cooked with sugar.

    A close friend I've had all my adult life is struggling with things a little bit these days. They don't like to leave their house and almost never initiate contact with friends anymore.

    I hate the helplessness of watching a loved one who has closed themselves off from the world a little more each time we speak.

    That's not how we should be getting old damn it. We should be laughing together at all the stupid shit we did and survived in our 20's.

    I was searching for something completely different and unrelated on one of our increasingly deteriorating search engines when I found this bizarre corner of the digiverse. https://dotesports.com/minecraft/news/top-10-minecraft-prison-servers-to-join-in-2024

    @skry I thought this was going to be about escape rooms, but no, people are putting themselves in Minecraft prisons.

    @lzg I'm obsessed with how "tragedian" is apparently a job you can have.

    @lzg You should jump on that. It seems like a growth industry.

    @lzg My coworkers spend soooooo much time obsessing over scripts to quickly spin up a new website, when it is something we do at most for an hour or two every couple of months.

    Time for the now-annual jump-starting of the pickup truck on the first beautiful weekend of spring, after months of being too seasonally depressed to work on house projects or drive for non-grocery errands.

    @kevbob Bessie has a few rust spots that don't seem to be expanding much. My big issue is with keeping all the rain out of the bed during the winter. I bought a car cover, but it ripped and blew off in a storm.

    mikemccaffrey,
    @mikemccaffrey@mastodon.social avatar

    Today, I've finally rigged a system of wires to hold down the cover for the pickup truck bed without needing to cut a bunch of holes in the bed liner, just in time for it almost to be the season I never need to worry about rain!

    The back half of a red pickup truck. The bed is covered by a sleek black rectangle that should keep rain out.

    I spent several minutes trying to figure out which messaging app my wife and I were using to have a conversation before remembering that we had been talking out loud.

    Bats fly by grabbing the air in their their sensitive webbed fingers, feeling little eddies of air, they adjust instantaneously deftly, teasing their way through air currents.

    I'm certain birds have a similar sense of the air, but there is something more relatable and easier to imagine about being the bat, using great webbed hands to surf & climb air columns.

    We haven't even gotten to the part about the radar yet!

    If I could spend a day as a creature it'd be an ant, but 2nd choice is a bat.

    @jessamyn @futurebird Are you saying that if I find a bat I should pick it up and throw it into the air?

    Another thing I love about is this absolute banger of a song that plays when I load the game. I thought that everyone heard the same thing, but it turns out that I must have randomly set it as my lobby music months ago when I first installed the game!
