(also Pooka is screaming at me to go to bed. he gets very upset if Spouse and I don't go to bed at around the same time every night, because that is PRIME POOKA-PETTING TIME and he needs ALL THE PETS RIGHT NOW DAMMIT)

@Thaminga heh, okay. I almost feel like--I wasn't the target audience for that, or I missed something basic. it was cute, and kind of fun, though, so it's all good! :)

Hey guys, my friend recently lost the source of most of his income and his wheelchair-adapted van. He's a trans guy with SMA (https://www.mda.org/disease/spinal-muscular-atrophy).
He's an artist taking commissions and selling small paintings to help make up some of the lost income. If you wanna help a cool disabled queer person out, this is his store:

paperclip game conclusion (spoilers)
I ended up leaving the game running while I went afk to have dinner. by the time I came back I'd gone from having explored 0.0000000(etc)% of the universe to having paperclipped it *all*, and the "Drifters" contacted me. I feel like I missed most of the interesting transitions in the game by letting it run while afk, but there's no way I could have sat through watching it run all the way through.
@kara@occult.camp @Ulfra_Wolfe@witches.town @Cascadiarch@witches.town @tipsytentacle yay eeee! I should come to one of those gatherings sometime and meet people. :]
went to the birb store today (nothing to do with BirbSite) and got a hummingbirb feeder with a new stick to hang it on (we don't have an overhanging porch roof), two squares of capsaicin-loaded suet (to feed birbs [who aren't affected by capsaicin] while deterring squirrels [who are]), and a small handful of caramels (for me [with no capsaicin]). tomorrow I will install the hummingbirb feeder. the spicy suet will have to wait until the one currently out there is gone. then--look out, squirrels!

@zebratron2084 so, Cleveland. or Los Angeles.
You know that game where you say the same sentence over and over, but emphasize a different word, changing the meaning of the sentence?
I find myself playing that game whenever facebook denies they are doing something bad with your data. Hoping to discover which is the magic word that's responsible for wordplay.
"We don't use your microphone for ads."
Maybe it's "we" -- they do after all use outside analysis to inform their acquisition choices. Maybe *someone else* uses mic recording data.

@Leucrotta exactly! I figured my laptop would be easier to recognize than my face. XD
