@zebratron2084 it may be healthy in fairly small amounts, but it gets toxic real quick.

a long time ago, a friend of mine gave me a phrase: "you don't get what you want, you don't get what you need, you don't get what you deserve--you get what you get." the corollary is that sometimes, if you're lucky or work for it, it can be what you want/need/deserve. but it always is just what it is. fate rarely makes value judgements.

@literorrery yeeeeeee! I hope I can come over to visit during the time @Oneironott is here! ^___^

me: I'm taking a shower.
Spouse: bring it back when you're done.
me: no! we're going to elope to Tijuana!
Spouse: RUDE.

@noelle it surely, surely does. my deepest sympathies and empathy. :|

both cats love watching the birds and squirrels on the porch (with occasional tail-wiggling, mrr-chirping, and abruptly ended pounces), but Nar is fascinated by crows in particular. nothing grabs his attention like a crow hanging around the porch--even similarly-sized birds don't excite him as much. our joke is that Nar, being a black cat, thinks that the crows are "his people" and wants to go outside to join them...

@guerrillarain@witches.town United continuing its trend of being the shitcans of the skies, I see. :|

Toxicology says he was high on somethin' called Witch Croissants. It's a tranquilizer for dingos.

@noelle lolololol yeah that's exactly what I would do. >______<

I disabled favorites and boosts in my Notifications column and the lack of feedback is at once unsettling and really refreshing. I don't have to care if people liked what I posted!

"Witch" is an ancient word that hasn't changed much in form or meaning. It's always basically meant someone who uses magic or divination.

It comes from ME "wicche", from OE "wicce", "wicca"; that's derived from "wiccian" ("to practice sorcery"), which is from Proto-Germanic *wikkōną, which itself is from PIE *wik-néh, meaning "to consecrate, separate, set aside".

Side note: we get "victim" from the same source; its ancestor referred to a consecrated sacrifice.

Anyone notice that Secretary of the Interior Ryan Zinke, the 2-person company tasked with repairing PR's electrical infrastructure, and Richard Nazi Spencer, are all from the same town of 6,000 people?

Kids are callin' it Filthy Pickles. She set a dumpster on fire behind a McDonald's and huffed the fumes until she saw tiny Scientologists crawlin' up her legs.

@Elizafox conservative age range: lower end of Boomers. liberal age range: firmly in GenX. WELP. *quiet cheer of "go, us!"*

paper clip game--spoiler explanation #2 

@chalcedony@octodon.social *nodnod* I've started playing the tournament when my operations have hit the max limit, but seeing that quantum computing can put it *over* the limit is exceedingly helpful as well. :D
