Jealous of how cats can just like, flomp over and instantly snooze. Like no big deal. Boom. Nap time.

You know, for the difficulty level I’m playing life on, enemies should really be dropping better loot.

re: food (vegan) 

I actually don't really understand how they managed to get the stringy texture so right in the (store-bought) hachee, which is soy-based

@meave@toot.site @kawaiipunk I know of exactly 1 (one) community so far where this has gone well

tbf if someone from mastodon recognised me I don't think it'd go like this. they'd shyly introduce themselves like "hi I'm Amy at shadowgecko.lizards.space but my username is currently '(massive stack of) French Toast In A Trench Coat'" and we'd stand there for 15 minutes cycling through all the avatars they've had over the past 6 months until I understood who they were

mental ponderings, ~ 

What is the most important thing I could be doing right now? I don't know, but I'm not sure it's any of the things I would've answered 5 years ago, and this greatly bothers me.

@accretionist@techhub.social Okay, then, so you're not going to learn anything from this. Bye, then.

@accretionist@techhub.social A strawman argument is not a valid excuse not to consider your own privilege and moral framework, and that is all I have to say about that.

@accretionist@techhub.social And just to make this complete: please consider what it means for you to assume that "if it's available, that means it's there for me to do with as I please".

@accretionist@techhub.social That is called "being an asshole and violating people's consent", when it's already made clear that this is not wanted.

@accretionist@techhub.social @thiswomanswerk Dude, take a fucking hint. And no, you do not have "equal right to engage". It was pretty clearly communicated that such engagement was not wanted.

You are not actually *entitled* to a conversation of any kind, regardless of whether you disagree.

Interesting paper about #adblocking that I just found out :blobcathugublock:

Energy Conservation with Open Source Ad Blockers

This study, although preliminary, clearly showed enormous potential for open source ad blockers to reduce consumer time waiting for Internet ads to load as well as the electricity needed to run their computers (and other electronic technologies) during that time. In addition, the externalities (including premature fatalities) associated with fossil-fuel-based electricity spent using computers by eliminating ads during Internet browsing and video streaming would be reduced.

@joenepraat @x_screamodeath_x @Ravotr @Jo It's not just them, though, that's my point. I generally don't see this stuff being improved by the people talking about solidarity and mutual aid either.
