@UweHalfHand He has been handled with kid gloves all his life, and it's becoming a problem. I'm exhausted.

@smh @futurebird when I was overseas and absolutely dirt poor, a bunch of likeminded volunteers had a library in the nearest city that did exactly this. The conversations in the margins of The Snow Leopard made it an utterly transformative read—one that otherwise would’ve been very solitary. Strong recommend.

@sidd_harth0_5h4h She is on wanted lists in 18 countries.

@dzwiedziu I'm sorry for getting a little grouchy, but I don't post things because I know or like the person, so I don't really know anything. It's a good essay. dassit

@fu But it's the center of the universe.

@saikou I NEVER smile.I'm *bisexual.*

@futurebird not gonna watch the youtube, but the light rail (traditional two rail) trains in the town I live in have driver consoles at each end, and a few lines have light enough traffic that don't have seperate rails for each direction, except for a short section where one train can pass another, and when the train reaches the end of the line, it doesn't turn around; instead, the driver just walks to the other end of the train.

"I spent two nights sleeping on a pile of sugar as big as the home nest!""And then the five-leg spider told you that you were the chosen one, I bet?""No! Come on stop making fun of me.""Who has ever heard of a warm spider that has five legs and takes you home instead of trying to eat you! It's all nonsense!"(The poor escaped ant is in the corner I think she's sad that no one believes her story.)

@futurebird I cannot spell aesthetic to save my life. If I'm LUCKY I get it close enough for a spell check to get it.But I'm angry because it's a really useful word and it just does NOT click in my brain and is an EVIL WORD

@futurebird Because they want to retain your attention (or grab it, if you've just switched the telly on) but also want to sound authoritative and in control.here's a video on how influencers change the way they talk to grab your attention:https://www.youtube.com/shorts/XFqnwn0cLhE

@fuchsi @futurebird It’s scary. I first heard of this some years back when cops pulled a car over for some ridiculous reason, then searched it. A kid was driving across the country for university and had cash for tuition. Cops said they were keeping it because of “suspected drug money.” Apparently this is how some departments fund themselves. Which sounds like banana republic crap.

@Virginicus Personally I think Maxwell's team has a heap of stuff, but it may not be "illegal" stuff just seedy things. Gross polaroids, that book, additional correspondence.I also kind of believe that Trump never went to "the island" but that isn't really important because that's not the only place these things were happening.They've been waving this stuff around trying to make the most of how it's exposed to get her better treatment in prison and it's worked.

@tiotasram @jrconlin This is exactly why I'm very curious about what if anything is being done to make good on the mayor's promise to protect the people of the city. A promise our useless mayor in NYC would never make since he's too busy eating boots.PDs generally don't like having other groups come in and get in the way. That the national guard is being sent is a kind of insult to the "quality" of their work. Start there.

@futurebird One of my former newspaper photojournalist friends here is Indigenous Hawaiian & she was the first to inform me about the colonial damages done to her peoples in Hawaii. Her family was displaced by white pineapple plantation owners a few generations ago. She informed me about the waters pollution/toxification by US Navy too.

@sennoma It's about all the speculation that someone might have been dead.

@rose_amd64 @futurebird @catmisgivings that's about where I am, I just built a bigger stream engine and I'm working on some automation.

@ianto_jones I made it so one must copy paste the link since I didn't know it was generated when I posted it, but also didn't want to just delete the post. So now it won't autoload but people can still look at it if they want to see what we were talking about.
