@goatsarah @eff https://www.openrightsgroup.org/blog/musk-and-zuck-engineering-free-speech/ much better take

@goatsarah Belgium does that too. you email and you get a reply saying "when can we phone you" rather than taking the fact I filled in my phone number as +32 00000000 as a hint.

@goatsarah I have been using "screenshat" for years and can recommend it.

@goatsarah s/cos/cis/ ?

@goatsarah

♪ Right now you are down and out
And feelin' really crappy
[…]
And when I see how sad you are
It sorta makes me happy
[…]
Human nature-
Nothing I can do
It's Schadenfreude
Making me feel glad that I'm not you♫

@goatsarah Yeah, but say that someone particularly particular was doing it by the book, what does the book say?

@goatsarah If you arrive at a port where your last port is in the same country or another Schengen country, do you just ignore border stuff, or are you supposed to turn up and at least make a note of your presence?

@goatsarah @chiffchaff also steering clear of orcas

@goatsarah sure, but recycling lets them turn it into biofuel or whatever, and it means I can keep my bucket of NaOH for degunging the sink.

@goatsarah Here there are cooking oil collection things in the streets by the bottle banks and used textiles containers.

@goatsarah biological woods are so much nicer than the sort made of concrete and fibreglass.

@goatsarah it has its place, mainly as a vehicle for smoking. Smoked paprika is an important ingredient.

@goatsarah Same with Belgium.

@goatsarah So we're shadowbanned. Nice.

@NatalyaD @goatsarah

I'm super super lucky with my GP. She seems to have an eidetic memory or something; she will say things like "I wouldn't normally recommend X but given your history of Y and that you're taking Z, I think it's appropriate".

(this is not calling you a liar; I've had waaaay too much healthcare in my life, and the majority are definitely the sort you describe. And I guess GPs are a different kind of thing in terms of having a long-term relationship with their patients.)

@goatsarah I can recommend infinity as a reddit client.

@goatsarah @A_C_McGregor hang on, this comment you made has the CW intact from its parent comment. Did you make that using different software?

@goatsarah @A_C_McGregor there's no way to mute a thread from one's home stream. You have to mute each post individually.

@goatsarah @A_C_McGregor you can mute *replies* from a thread as showing up as notifications. But that's not relevant in this case.

@A_C_McGregor @goatsarah please can you CW "fascists are trying to make everything awful" posts because my anxiety is often happier if I can filter those out.

Also I want a way to do "filter this whole thread" one of these days...
