@monorail It's the British English word for pants. In BrE, "pants" can have the specific meaning of "underpants", so trousers is used to mean specifically what AmE calls pants.

@Trinket Oh dear, did something happen that you want to distance yourself from?

@pearshapes@snouts.online @ashiinu@snouts.online I'm having trouble comprehending that it's _not_ a game screenshot, this is really good!

@Terrana@tootplanet.space Try to take a break when you can. :ms_blue_heart:

@Azure The page you linked also amusingly misspells fortnight as footnight repeatedly. I've used their feedback form to bring this to their attention.

@Azure wolfram alpha does this kind of thing too, though it looks like this has better comparisons.

re: crowdsourcing self care ideas, esp. ones tagged with low-energy / high-energy differentiation 

@tastymochafox Making these lists open to the public might be a good idea, if the ideas aren't too personalized.

@girl And even if mastodon doesn't survive, the fediverse will. Mastodon isn't the only software that can use ActivityPub; there's also the Mastodon fork glitch-soc, Pleroma, and probably some others as well.

food 

Adding a little pesto to almost anything vaguely Italian improves it. Pasta and pizza are obvious, but it's also a great addition to a ham and salami sandwich.

Oh dear, I probably should have put a food CW on those. One moment.
