@gwenprime i seem to have shed a few lately and am sitting at a nominal ~1k, which i assume equates to about 60 active accounts. it kind of feels like the danger threshold would be somewhere around, i don't know, a couple hundred people actually paying attention?

brennen (brennen@federation.p1k3.com)'s status on Friday, 04-Aug-2023 05:08:30 JST brennen a counter i can increment different categories of things for on any given account, and then also a ruleset for how many counters are at what before a block or a mute kicks in. so, like, you get 2 uspols and 1 unsolicited explanations of a topic to an expert in the relevant field, or whatever.

brennen (brennen@federation.p1k3.com)'s status on Friday, 05-May-2023 13:16:23 JST brennen @m455 i've spent decades on this path and have finally, reluctantly, given in to kill traps, though i still use the live ones when i can manage it. they're always going to be a potential thing in old, leaky houses, but in recent years populations around here have just hit unreal peaks.
i bear them no malice. they're just doing their thing. but they will also just absolutely ruin your life if measures aren't taken.

you could not intentionally design an animal whose fundamental lifeways are more perfectly honed to eat away at my ability to function as a stable human adult than mus musculus & cousins.
