@EmeraldRose @LavenderPawprints @GreenSkyOverMe no. It's meant to be a wordplay on Kane as in, what us blind people use. Like, if you have a cane you are able to do things. But it's sort of a double meaning because of the whole cane and able from the Bible thing. But I'm pretty sure the creator means it in a visually impaired empowerment sense.

Anyone else on the Mastodon.social instannce find it really lagging today? I'm at the point where I really want to change instances, but I want to find one that I jell with. So far, I can't decide. And before anyone even says it, hell no not cane and able.

@LavenderPawprints @EmeraldRose exactly! Which is why I said that because I knew someone would be a smart ass and do so.

@EmeraldRose @LavenderPawprints I would never in 1 million years be caught dead using that instance. If everyone in the blind community migrated to it, I would probably very happily go back to X.

Sometimes I give thought to changing music listening venues. The only sucky thing about switching music platforms would be that I've put so much time and effort into all my playlist getting them just so. If I switched from Spotify to Apple Music I'd have to start all over again.

They were talking about this on a morning show I was listening to this morning. It was one of those text us your thoughts questions so I thought I'd throw it out here. What's the worst thing you can say to someone who's already angry? I'll go first. I've never met a woman in my almost 44 years who took kindly to being told to, "calm down!"

For those of you who demanded that #Sonos make their app more #A11Y friendly, you got your wish. There's a new update out for it today. Please feel free to boost for those who don't already know. You're welcome. Smiley

They should invent smellodon. Pizza is in the oven. It smells like a pizzeria in here. I'd post a sample wiff just to tantalize all of you.

Running a self cleaning cycle on my oven. Woo dogg! This thing gives off a lot of heat. If the heat ever stopped working in here, I could run a self clean cycle and the place would be warm all day.

At the age of today years old, I finally finally realized John Fogerty isn't saying, you don't need a pinhead, just to hang around. But if you've got a nickel won't you lay your money down. Come on! Listen to the song yourself. I challenge you. Doesn't he sound like he's saying you don't need a pinhead? Down on the corner by CCR.

This is a really cool training video on teaching McDonald's staff how to make chicken McNuggets for 1983. https://youtube.com/watch?v=N_NpmOo7XtM&si=TVxecgP42ui_VUG8

Good morning all my fellow Mastodonians! I can't tell you how many times I've almost written twitterlings instead of mastodonians. Perish that thought! I'd wash my own mouth out with soap and scrub my fingers with bleach. But I digress. Anyways, how the fuck are all of ya on this lovely Monday?

Seeing a lot of channels with videos on #Youtube where people take us on tourss of completely abandoned buildings. There are lots of places especially hospitals where electricity and heat and water and even cable are still on. Does anyone have any recommendations of videos like this that I should watch? They seem really interesting.

It's crazy that a lot of these buildings still have power. Lights, elevators, AC and heat units, even one I saw had a room with a TV where animal planet was on. Go figure.

I've heard two exclamations of surprise over the past few days. I like them both. Holy fuckarrific, and holy Christ omatic! In the second one, I just picture Jesus in all his fictional glory riding down the street on some kind of drone type scooter device. It's quite a funny mental image to me.

My predictions for the Christmas music listening season. I predict that the songs happy Christmas war is over by the plastic Ono band, my grown-up Christmas list by Natalie Cole or Michael Bublé, and someday at Christmas by Stevie Wonder will be quite popular. Backlash this year will likely fall on Snoopy's Christmas by the Royal guardsmen. All focussed around the ongoing wars.

@GreenSkyOverMe lol. When you first said that, I was like, OK so the adults get to eat good stuff, and the kids are stuck eating goats? And then I was like, she probably means goats for the kids to pet.

@GreenSkyOverMe Yay! Happy birthday! What did you do to celebrate?

Good morning fellow Mastodonians! How the fuck are all of ya on this Saturday? Got my exercise today. Went for a 20 minute walk to the pharmacy to pick up a prescription. So about 40 minutes altogether. Got 2 1 L cartons of chocolate milk because they were two for three bucks. So sort of negating the walk there I know. but I couldn't resist them for that price.

Blindy tip. When ordering from Uber eats, make sure that your sandwich toppings are properly selected. For example. I ordered a tuna sub from Subway. I did not know that lettuce and tomato were already selected. It used to be that you clicked on whatever veggies or toppings or sauce you wanted. Now apparently some already come on it, and if you don't want them you have to unselect them. If you don't notice this you'll be stuck with a sandwich that's probably not how you want it.
