This is gorgeous and a fantastic use for machine learning. <3
Can there be something better than GNU/Linux please?

#introductions errr hello I am very scared, also #autistic and #queer and I am here because of cassolotl who I don't know how to tag??? HI
Context: on a train with @cassolotl
Cassian: can I send you off to find a bin for this stuff?
Me: only if you acknowledge my humanity.
Cassian: hello human, how are your organs?
There need to be emojis or abbreviations or something to help deal with the length limitations here.
I propose (first pass) using the symbol $, either in isolation or at the end of a word, to indicate that verbiage has been cut to save space.
Additional symbols could be used for shades of meaning:
$> = had more to say, but don't want to start into a tootstorm
$~ = simplified; probably annoyingly imprecise; happy to expand or clarify
$. = this ended awkwardly because I ran out of room
$>.
Sometimes I feel sad to be not to be more connected to the fediverse (Awoo only federates manually with specific, trusted instances).
But then sometimes I see evidence of friends caught in what looks like an intensely frustrating and stressful conversation. And when I investigate, I inevitably find that the source of the ablism/elitism/whatever is a user on an instance Awoo would be unlikely to ever federate with. 😸
UK politics, liberal strategy
A good strategy for furthering a liberal agenda:
1. Get all liberal parties to not ever run against each other in the same constituency.
2. Form many new parties with many variations on conservative policies, and run in every constituency, thereby splitting the conservative vote on each seat so the seat goes to a liberal candidate.
3. Profit (all seats sat in by liberal MPs)
@Finnarchist@cybre.space have no other possessions, then it'll be easy to find them.

Personally I have a small bowl on a table in my living room that I put all my pocket contents into whenever I get home. So either my keys are in my pocket or in that bowl. There's no reason whatsoever to put them anywhere else.
