CITIZEN! Are you reading PROPER AUDIOBOOKS for PROPER REASONS or are you TOO LAZY TO READ?
If you are unsure, ASK MASTODON and A MAN will tell you.

Mastodon is not for everyone. It is not going to attract Fiat 500 Twitter, or Strongbow Dark Fruits Twitter. We should be content with it spreading organically by word of mouth between library mice in tiny cosy sweaters and IT technicians in bondage gear.
“82% of lawyers use or plan to use AI for work”.
I wouldn’t trust 82% of lawyers to feed my goldfish.
Hello!
30 trillion cells in my body are human, whatever that means, and 38 trillion are various bacteria! There are a bunch of viruses too which are currently impacting my functionality!
I am 68 trillion microorganisms in a trench coat which results in a sort of self-propelling, self-replicating digestion tube, but I am paid to act as if I am a clean, rational, thinking machine!
This is very stressful for all 68 trillion of us, so sometimes we complain about it on the internet.
Once again: It doesn’t matter if immigrants are more hardworking than people who were born in the country. What matters is that they’re *people*.
@TheBreadmonkey I always wondered if the end of In The Night Kitchen implied that Maurice Sendak eats cake for breakfast every day.
@TheBreadmonkey the northern combination of fruitcake and cheese with lots of tea sets you up well for the afternoon.
Shocked to discover that there were fascists in the British Army who served in Northern Ireland. Shocked, I tell you.
Well…
@MediaActivist @openrightsgroup This “pay or consent” model was adopted by Meta and others when it was held that they could not rely on contractual terms for their tracking cookies. All regulators in the EU are pushing against it but IIRC there’s yet to be a definitive court ruling on it. The UK is separate but you would expect the Information Commissioner to have the same attitude, as the law is identical. It’s not compatible with GDPR-based consent.
@bmacDonald94 Say what you like about Nixon, but the man had a proper thumb.
@selzero Maybe Streets of Rage 2?
@gothodile @davidpnice @selzero I think this whole thread should be preserved by the Smithsonian for future generations to understand this site.
@AnarchoNinaWrites It’s likely, based on the exit poll, that we’ll have our first trans MP, at least. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emily_Brothers
@InternetEh The scolding of voters will continue until polling improves.
@stavvers I once pissed off a herring gull on a beach by refusing it ice cream and shoo-ing it away. It responded by flying up into the air and then dive bombing us with bird shit. Fortunately my wife and kid were under cover in a beach tent.
@stavvers I may adopt the “first day in prison” approach to going to the beach and just immediately pick a fight with the biggest, meanest gull to show the others I’m not to be messed with.
When you die, nobody will remember:
- Your salary
- Your fancy title
- How ‘busy’ you were
- How stressed you were
- How many hours you worked
People will remember:
- Your shitposts
- Frogs do not allow you to gradually boil them.
- Lemmings do not commit mass suicide.
- Ostriches do not stick their heads in the sand.
- Newts do not confuse weather and climate.
- Moose do not get their news from Facebook.
- Naked mole rats do not kid themselves that they live in the greatest democracy in the world when in fact they live in a two-party oligarchy with every representative dependent on huge donations from the superrich.
- Cassowaries are not particularly impressed by AI.
Ok, maybe Google isn’t completely evil yet.
@TheBreadmonkey Trivia: Huge Thatcher fanboy and friend Jimmy Savile claimed to have invented the “two turntables and a microphone” DJ set up. Unsurprisingly, this was a lie.
