ATTENTION, Public Service Announcement: Do not upgrade your npm. Do not upgrade to 5.7.0, released yesterday.
It changes file permissions of /etc, /boot, /user, … when run with sudo. Avoid, duck, cover, whimper.
went to hang the hummingbird feeder back up, after bringing it inside to thaw out (the food was a solid chunk of ice), and there was a nuthatch on the suet feeder, which is about a foot and a half from the hummingbird feeder stand. I expected the nuthatch to fly away when I opened the door, then when I stepped out onto the porch, then when I slowly hung up the feeder--but it went to the far side of the suet instead and kept right on nomming. HUNGRY NUTHATCH DON'T CARE XD

@mawr *tears up a bit*
@hummingrain I mostly did, though woke up with a headache, but the snow kinda makes up for it! :D
@hummingrain oooh... much empathy. when I lived in Humboldt we usually didn't have heating--either the places we lived didn't have it, or we couldn't afford to turn it on--so I got *very* familiar with electric/insulated blankets, electric space heaters, and layering clothing. >____< that must be a dozen times worse up here, especially in this cold! yeeeep...
@hummingrain I like snow, so I'm hopeful! :D
@hummingrain *wow*. yeah, that's... pretty damn gross. :|
So I have to come up with $600 by the end of the month and about $400 the week after that, and I could use your help. Please contribute or boost. ❤️

@theoutrider I like how the article ends with "your only choices are to accept ads, accept mining, or not read," like control-a control-c control-v don't fucking exist. "oh, you let me see a "preview" and then put up your popup to block it? well, let me just reload the page here and open a notepad document..."
@Jacel @archadia@tootplanet.space see when I hear "chum" in relation to "fish" it just makes me think of sharks.
