@GinnyMcQueen@mastodon.social Just as someone who recalls that day: You're right. You made a comment that, in context of ur toots, was obviously an invitation to your new followers to fill in their bios and get an avatar. U my have called them "user photos" (not "real user photos"), but the context made it clear (to anyone who looked) that you meant avis and were simply inviting your own new followers to show that they weren't bots or trolls so you cld follow back.

instead of saying "that's one whale of a tale!" try saying
"that's one vore of a lore!"
me: Ugh, I've got hundreds of old projects composed as outlines in .opml! I wish I could archive them as plain text in a lightweight markup language.
pandoc: It's cool, babe.
me: Never let me go, pandoc.

@oceangrunge@witches.town sometimes I wear my contacts and use reading glasses, other times I squint under my regular glasses.
@fireh9lly couple weeks ago I matched a long-held object-I-don't-know-what-it-is to the lawn mower!
The Big Report is due Monday at work. You know what that means. Expect a lot of clean laundry and a well-organized kitchen.
@bunnylyn So not very lewd but certainly lewd-adjacent and having lewd potential.
@bunnylyn Looks like it unzips files that have been compressed in a certain way. For some reason always "bunzip2"? And I don't even know what to do with "bzcat" which I insist on pronouncing "busy cat".
Learning to computer I came on the "bunzip" command today and my first thought was Man @bunnylyn would love this.
@plsburydoughboy One of my very favorite frames. I keep it ready to hand on my phone.
Federation is fun & useful. I'm kept young wondering "Huh I thought I already followed that person well maybe that was them-on-another-instance or maybe I'm LOSING MY MIND."

@thefishcrow Right? Schools especially don't seem to know any response except that "tut tut u both must get along" both-sides BS.
We do help them know the difference b/w defending urself & meting out punishment, especially older/senior kids, but truthfully it doesn't bother me to see young kids err on side of sticking up for themselves.

When I teach martial arts to school-aged children, I love giving them a place where they're expected to yell and hit. But even by kindergarten, many girls have been taught that they must never yell, and they don't want to. It's a little heartbreaking that they've been silenced so effectively already. But it's also hugely rewarding to work with them over time, until they are eager to YELL, hit, kick, and defend their bodies.
I really like #amaroq's Translate Text feature. @eurasierboy
@raccoon So I'm about 30 pages into a library copy of the Ward book (how Linux works), and I feel like it's well-written for me and my (low, cli-acquainted, curious-novice, non-programmer-but-codecademy-addict) level.
@Eramdam@witches.town Heads up @eurasierboy !
Sometime in the night I woke with the "No but just saying if I _did_ have a fursona what would it be like" thoughts.
Happy now?
good morning
