there are many sparrows foraging around the boardwalk area. I put some chip crumbs on the porch for them, and then thought of using the Merlin app to play their calls to attract them, because last time I did that I ended up surrounded by like a dozen sparrows and I felt like goddamn Snow White, but the Merlin app isn't working for some reason. the sparrows figured out where the chip crumbs were anyway, and are happily sparrowing around on the porch. ^___^

A note for instance admins: that "clear out old preview cards" took a LONG time on elekk, which is relatively small; I can only imagine how long it would take on a big instance. Be careful!

I cannot express in words how incredibly inspiring it is to see a trans woman on stage as the lead singer of a band screaming out lyrics to a couple thousand moshing fans singing in chorus. I'm literally in tears tight now.

OMG I just realized something
Hugh Jackman is an alien infiltrator in a terrible disguise
I mean how else can you explain naming yourself "Jack Human" and then being all "oh shit that's too obvious I better spoonerize that"

I would prefer we not have a recommendation system. I'm not sure what problem it's purporting to solve. It might be nice for individuals to be have a permanent "follow list," but presumably that's the list of people they're following. As such, the better solution might be an easier way for people to get their "friends-of-friends" lists to see who they're not following that their friends are.

follow recommendations
it's good for connecting folks new to the platform. there's a legitimate, good reason for it.
but make it opt-in. shoving people into the limelight without their consent is bad bad bad bad bad bad bad.

PSA on the Equifax breach:
You can enter most anything into their "check if I've been breached" thing and it will say you've been breached.
The whole site they set up is just a scam to force people into signing up for their "identity protection service." You get a year free but you better believe they'll start charging you for it after that, and the opt-out process is never easy.
Don't buy into it. Just keep an eye on your credit report and credit/bank account statements.
also I just spent a half-hour floating in a pool pretending to be an alligator. I don't think anybody else in the pool got the reference. I didn't really care. it was FANTASTIC.
WELP.
evidently Irma is supposed to get here Monday morning, but by then it should ~only~ be a category 2. Disneyworld is staying open! and we'll be here! it'll be a vacation to remember! o_________o wish us luck!
I have taken pictures of so many birds omg
I'd never even heard of a bird called an "anhinga" before, but they're all over the place here. also I need to take pictures of the abundant trash chickens. :D
saw a least bittern! and I think a grackle. my spellcheck is being a butt with all these bird names.
given my thing with Thoth, I'm endlessly pleased at the abundance of ibises here. also I spotted one of the lizards doing a red throat display!
oh and Disney stuff, yey.
had a close encounter with an ibis, who was just hanging out on a walkway. TRASH CHICKEN
TINY CUTE LIZARDS EVERYWHERE. ON THE SIDEWALKS. ON THE LIGHTPOSTS. IN THE BUSHES. -EVERYWHERE-.
seriously I might die of cute tiny lizard overload. also saw a snowy egret and a great blue heron just hanging out in a ditch. and LIGHTNING.
now sleep. :D
in Orlando! yeah I know about the hurricane, we're keeping an eye on it. it's about the same temperature but less ash & more water. I've already seen shovel-tailed grackles & an anhinga!!
re:lbt--I recognize that quote, it's from "Art and Fear," which I unhesitatingly recommend to anybody who does art of any kind. it's a small, dense, amazing book.

Pooping is so weird, like, humans have a room where they regularly sit down and browse the Internet on their phones for a while.

Henlo frens!
I made an AntiFa Illustrator template that you can use to make your own AntiFa logo for your local region! It's all in vector so it scales beautifully. Great for stickers! Please feel free to use and share!
