My alter-ego seems to have an online gambling problem. Maybe I should log in and make better bets.

Someone is absolutely convinced my email is theirs. I get all their signups, billing info and they even try reset the password, thinking it’s theirs. Can I log into their online profiles seeing as they’ve given me full access.

I do feel like we forget that a mere 100 years ago 20% of children in America just fucking died.

If someone KEEPS singing up to services using your email, just how illegal is it to log into all their stuff and change the passwords?

Warm air carries more vapour also. Increasing the ocean temp doesn’t increase the vapour pressure of water by as much.

Getting rid of a decision is what it would be. Consequence is a fairly reasonable re-entry - UK would almost certainly be fast-tracked back in. EU would actually like its closest trading partner back.

@thejessness.bsky.social and I once came up with “Suddenly Scrotum”, and “Soggy Teddybear Arms” as great band names and I stand by this.

I’m not against just blindly throwing billionaires into deep space though. Oxygen, none - don’t care.

Yes, and also apparently we can’t fix the 1% of earth chemistry that’s broken. We need to flee and fix the 99.9999% of Mars that is also broken and very, very far away.

Genuinely funny to me that I am always the skeleton in every single one of these I see. This meme calls me OUT. 💀

Not quite sure how it all works yet. Sad to leave a network behind but it’s a trash-heap now.

Anything happening here? I keep forgetting that this app exists and it’s just not grabbing quite like Twitter or Yore did. Maybe I’m just using it incorrectly.

Sadly I’ve tried to get into Bluesky but it seems Twitter just broke this format. The people I wanted to follow are now scattered, left for here or Mastodon or real-life adventures.

Here is just people desperately trying to rebuild following through engagement baiting.

The horrible thing about long term problems is that they ALL turn into short term problems far more rapidly than you’d like.

Something I used to do with science students. Take two identical random pens except the colour. Same brightness.

Mix up behind and slowly bring in front while locking focus in front. You can’t tell the colour until 1/3 from middle. Try it (brain tries to cheat)

Jack Russells I’m convinced are actually massive dogs with an excellent compression algorithm.

This place has potential but it’s still mostly people shitposting trying to get their accounts into the feed.

Will give it another month or two and see how it goes.

Favourite thing on the train now is seeing someone intentionally spread leg onto adjacent empty seat to try discourage you from sitting - then sitting hard on it and pretending you didn’t see it.

Is there shame in chugging a Monster energy drink at 09:00 on the morning train?

Used to think WW2 was far back.

1980 is closer to Hiroshima than it is to now. 😬

Thought so - it’s the seasoning in any functionally disfunctioning fun shin thing.

I miss the smell of toasted sandwiches from the school cafetaria/tuck shop when I was 7 yo.
