When we bought our house five years ago, housemate bought the empty lot next door so he could apply his considerable #permaculture skills to creating a public urban food forest. It’s an ambitious project.

I just asked him what his plans were for the rest of the day. He looked exasperated. “Weeding,” he replied. Then he shook his head and said, “Nature, it just does whatever the fuck it wants when you aren’t looking.” I think that’s the best description of #gardening I’ve ever heard.

So there's a YouTube channel I watch about aviation stuff that I really like. The host explains things really well, calls out videos designed to panic you about flying, and is a good source of info.

He just did a video about a woman kicked off a plane for not using the flight attendant's pronouns.

While he defends the flight attendant, he does so from a policy point of view of "it's more efficient to let the passenger go than the flight attendant." But more telling, he says things like "made up pronouns" and "they decided to use pronouns that weren't the real ones" and various other "bogus pronouns."

Yeah, not watching anymore.

I've never had faith in staying in one place long enough for it to be home. So when I moved in here, I saved every box and stored it, because I knew I would have to move out some day. Likely not because I wanted to.

Apparently today is the day reassigned all airline approach patterns directly over my house. Kinda reminds me of the days when we lived on the flight path for Kelly AFB.

Spent the evening in the Arcade Time Capsule arcade and relived my Saturday Nights as a teen pumping quarters into Street Fighter II.

I've spent enough money on that game Capcom should just send me a HSF2T cabinet.

"Yeah, I can't do a dragon punch on this joystick."
"But, it's a great joystick."
"Oh, it is. I was barely able to do a dragon punch in the arcade, so it's perfect."

when I first ran D&D, my grandmother, who had bought fully into the IT'S SATANISM hype, insisted on sitting and watching the first session

about an hour in, she threw her hands up and yelled 'THIS IS JUST MATH' and stormed off

Fedi is almost certainly the social network with the most nonhuman entities on it. The question is, just how many of us are there?

Let’s do a poll and find out! What kinda thing are you?

Transformers but they turn in to furniture instead of vehicles so they can just chill w/ some humans.

Saw this a few days ago, waited for it to hit mainstream.

"School board has surveillance windows installed on gender-neutral bathrooms"

"Windows were installed based on guidance from a right-wing law firm that opposes LGBTQ+ rights. South Western School District...carved out gaping windows that peer into the gender-neutral bathrooms at the Emory H. Markle Middle School. Bathrooms...explicitly for men or women only are exempt..."
