What is postfurry?
Trick question! Even we have no idea anymore. It used to mean something, but we all forgot. It doesn't matter, 'cause we're all just doing whatever we want anyhow, and labels only lead to suffering, and why bother suffering when we could be uploading our minds into liquid computers poured into Klein bottles shaped like half-dingo-half-cockatiel samovars or something like that?
THE MORE YOU KNOW
This is why I like Seattle. It gets me. Most feline place I've ever lived. https://awoo.space/media/jWPS149t6OC-2338D2U
Rest in peace, Ben Barres. I hadn't heard of you before, or at least your name never registered in my mind, and I am deeply sorry for that oversight. Thank you for leading the way, and may we all follow your example moving forward.
It's bad enough that every café in this damn town feels the need to play music at levels slightly louder than would allow for conversation, but it should be plain illegal to play music that has lyrics in the same way it's illegal to smoke at bus stops, you know? Tryin' to breathe, here! Tryin' to think!
If I had a nickel for every time I have accidentally cleared out a toot I was typing up by clicking on something else interesting that popped up in my home timeline, I'd have enough nickels to buy a pad of sticky notes and a pen I could use to write a reminder not to do that.
But then I'd be paying in nickels. How gauche!
Even the last holdouts agreed the total rewrite of emotions was a great upgrade, expanding the range and subtlety of feelings. It was a magnificently well-considered design.
The new blend of nostalgia, for example, had more harmonious blends of wry detachment and affectionate appreciation of what had been. It simply worked better than the old.
Still, some held that they missed the former nostalgia. To this the lead designer answered only that famous cryptic smile.
Source Code Pro, as a note. So it's not the _most_ terrible choice. Its just... ugly. Maybe they had a better one in mind and forgot to install it and that's the fallback?
Am I the only one watching #AGDQ2018 and wondering why they put all that effort into a new look for the "interface" stuff if they were just gonna go with that terrible font for all the text?
Oh, cool. The new Mark IV otter traps are out.

@vahnj A dragon who encourages an ancient kobold civilization to create art, demanding art from them in tribute to not destroy them -- without intending on destroying them, but curious to see what they'd produce. Nurtures generations of artists and many different styles.
Over centuries, they forget why there's so many dragon motifs.
Yeah, Keet's posting about videogame music again—
—and this time it's music I'd bookmarked some time ago and then only just finally listened to. The album, yes, but especially this one track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gw7UqVz1dRc&index=7&list=PL0U93OwjD1DJMKgaFIJtMZiH7Z0frKotD
I'm not going to call this soundtrack revolutionary or anything, but this is the sort of schmaltz that will always get me to smile a lot and dance in my chair a little.
I think that's why I flatten my chair cushions so fast. Yeah, that's gotta be it.
Some good news this morning:
Washington state is now also allowing changing a birth certificate to "X" instead of M or F!
I got an email about it just this morning. :-)

How about this idea for a Mastodon client feature?
Ah, thought of another bonus to this – it would make it even more intuitive that a CW counts against total toot length!
How about this idea for a Mastodon client feature?
What if:
1) Type a toot as normal in the box large enough to comfortably edit things.
2) Press CW button.
3) First "paragraph" of toot – everything before the first explicit ␍ and/or ␊ or whatever you kids are using these days – is automatically moved into the CW box!
And as a bonus:
4) Press CW button to turn it off...
5) ...and whatever's in the CW box is automatically inserted into the main text box for convenient editing.
Thoughts?
