Killing mice 

@viTekiM it probably doesn't help, but I think of mice as "nature's popcorn"--*everything* eats mice. wolves, coyotes, eagles, crows, raccoons, badgers... deer, sheep... chickens... XD there's a very good reason they're so amazingly fecund.

RT @KT_NRE@twitter.com: I'm sure this sculpture is supposed to be a statement on consumer culture or something, but all I can see is Jesus and Lenin trying REALLY HARD to make this whole co-parenting thing work as they take Mickey to his first day of kindergarten.

Garage Cubes 

It's a nootropic from the dark 'net called Garage Cubes. Chick was in the middle of deliverin' a quarterly earnings report, suddenly she was ridin' out the door on a mechanical centaur.

@mallaidh
so much this.

we are only as strong as we are gentle with eachother, and sharing is caring only if it's properly CW'd.

If a triggering toot is massively boosted, it can make the fediverse toxic for marginalized/hurting people for *days*, which can severely impact their (cough, my, cough) ability to be online at all.

I frequently mute people who use CW text unethically, too.

Put the info behind a wall.
Let me choose.

@pan

CWs, activism 

coz usually the people willing to put the most work in, even for the most urgent and disastrous political horrors... are multiply marginalised people.

multiply marginalised people are more likely to have ptsd and are at more risk of burnout and have more engagement with activism. AND less avenues of treatment available.

this idea that scaring fence-sitting liberals is worth more than helping seasoned activists work safely.. it's not realistic. people ignoring it aren't gonna help

CWs 

if you would like me to be able to read urgent things, please CW it so that not only can i read it, i can also responsibly boost it, and like, KEEP reading it if i have to stop

"i'm not CWing this because it's important to actually read it" translates to "i'm not CWing because any time this pops up anywhere in your life, nomatter how much you've read or done about it elsewhere, you should be forced to read it"

do u really think the people who don't open "urgent, USpol" are willing to act?

@mawr "MOOOOMMMM... don't look!"

it slep time. gnight all. dream well, and be kind to yourselves. you deserve it. <3

@noelle I had to say it out loud--for some reason in my head it's "AWG lawf," but when I say it out loud it's "OH glawf."

@Kistaro I'm... not sure if I want a cheeseburger, or not... o____O

writing; media; pet peeves 

@zebratron2084 @hummingrain part of me wants to say that "Metamorphosis" was the only story that could have legitimately used the phrase--and I'm not 100% sure that's true, but it does make me smile for some reason...

tiny spider 

@Anke@tootplanet.space I've tried, but it kept dropping off my hand before I could get it to the corner. I think it's currently in the cat tree somewhere, which isn't much better than my desk and in some ways is worse--both the cats enjoy eating bugs--but there's only so much I can do. :\

tiny spider 

there is a tiny translucent extremely pale green spider trying desperately to build a web across my desk/chair/body. I keep gently brushing it off, but there's only so much I can do when it's *so determined*. I'm afraid I'm probably going to end up squishing it accidentally, and will probably never know it...

@kobold *sends many kind concerned thoughts and gentle hugpat offers* I am truly sorry to hear this. I hope that you find peace, and can recover.

@Leucrotta I have to come up with a new character concept for a game that's restarting soon and I keep thinking of characters in your art style. XD I'm probably going to go with a half-orc barbarian (yea, cliche I know) or a dragonborn warlock...

uspol (++?!?) 

@zebratron2084 oooOOOOooooh. daaaaamn. GOOD TO SEE. MORE PLEASE. :D

idea for countering right-wing rallies 

Replace their posters with look-alikes that refer to the event as "FASHDANCE".

...but maybe this is obvious.

Hey #gardening Masto, do you have suggestions for drainage? I have some hanging containers left over from the landlord, and I just realized they have 0 drainage. Should I just drill holes in the bottom, or is there a better solution?
