Cis-het married cat lady, retired web developer, pro-choice atheist and feminist. My train station is Lawnton, I shop at Warner, and my federal MP is a potato. #Australian

Diagnosed at 60 as #ActuallyAutistic. Still trying to work out what that means. Strong opinions, many interests, boring AF. I don't get out much because of physical limitations and fear of #COVID

My pronouns are she/her. My cats are Shula (black) and Jana (tortie).

Bought a dental product, Tooth Mousse, on eBay. It’s been USED. Disgusting.🤮 I’m sanitising my hands, urk, urk. 🤢🥴 Have reported and requested refund.

Side view of tube. Product has been squeezed out.

Afternoon Tiny Dancers. Bit of a rough one today. So it goes.
Am hoping to get just a little more sewing done but my brother's dog is needy, clingy and massive so perhaps not as she likes to sit on me

Trip into the city necessitated lunch at Vegerama of course. Brisbane's best lunch takeaway. 😋

@phocks II bought vegan salami from Woolies for our trip, and I thought, young josh would be so proud of me.

I’d say it tasted like arse, but I don’t know what that’s like. It taste a bit like spiced plastic dipped in margarine though. Really, really nasty :(

@anathema_device@bne.social avatar

@phocks salami is meat not fish :)

But thanks for the warning on the fake fish!

I don't know what it is with the MG4 but the stereo is not great. I thought it was just DAB sounded bad, but turns out anything I play on it has that sloshy sibilance of a 90s Napster rip.

@ash that’s not good. how much does it cost to put reasonable speakers in a car?

Mentioned to Mum I was worried about Dad crossing the road by himself. “He’s crossed it thousands of times. If something happens, someone will find his phone and call.”
Right, the phone that will also be smashed into a million pieces by the same giant semi trailer on the very busy road? Or the same fast SUV that he stepped in front of? I didn’t say any of that. I have to just let it be. Let it be, let them have dignity of risk.

@caity and you can’t protect him forever. Even if you lived with them you couldn’t. :(

Does it count as a vacation when you’re using leave time to be with extended family with zero privacy? My vote is no. It does not.

@pseudonymsupreme no, it does not.

It took 2.5 years, but I finally had my first very unpleasant encounter here on Mastadon. Really nasty individual. Oh well.

Holy hell that was SOO much more of a screw around than I thought it would be but I finally have a Mastodon dev environment to play around in. Vagrant just flat out refused to work so I had to do the manual install. https://docs.joinmastodon.org/dev/setup/

@phocks dear god that emoji is racist af

@phocks don’t know how it appears on your screen, but on mine it’s a stereotyped Japanese man with glasses and buck teeth. Looks like Mickey Rooney in Breakfast at Tiffany’s :(

@anathema_device@bne.social avatar

@ash @phocks this one
I’m seeing it very small, but at the size it show up as, it looks as I described. I’m not convinced it’s better when enlarged :(

anathema_device,
@anathema_device@bne.social avatar

@ash @phocks this is what comes to mind. Jerry Lewis did a very similar ‘yellow face’ as well :(

anathema_device,
@anathema_device@bne.social avatar

@phocks @ash what does it look like on your device?

anathema_device,
@anathema_device@bne.social avatar

@phocks @ash yeah, that looks fine. The buck teeth and glasses thing for Japanese/ASian people is what the black and white minstrel look is for Black people, and I can’t imagine why Apple decided it was appropriate :( Just very, very racist
